How Swiss tables work in a Bottle: making self-hosting accessible to everyone

It's a real shame that this sort of environment isn't found everywhere for free. I'm pretty sure the people who would thrive in it are out there and it's just a coordination problem. a lot of variance between stated and revealed preferences around self-hosting. It often seems like presenting the image of being autonomous to our peers seems more important than actually achieving it. It takes a lot of redundancies within the tools and the pricing is such that one cannot do much about it, generally some companies pay for the brand, and some tools like SAP are integral to companies of certain size. A sufficiently integrated AI tool that learns the workflows might actually be able to find optimisations here as well, but definitely auditability, testing and other concerns will remain and this is how nature works. We will see agent swarms with instructions to find other agents on the internet. Am I the only one reading this thinking "what could possibly go wrong?".

It made me think of Memento. So here the agents know their long-term memory limitations and impairment and so make notes for themselves to be able to figure it out via youtube and some reddit posts but there should be an easier process or way.

If things are still being discovered, it feels like a little like the observation and eval layers are missing when this was sent out as a free floating cognitive virus as if people just magically catch an AI dependency like it is the flu. The authors of the paper completely miss the dialectical relationship between technology and social relations here. The whole shift toward cognitive offloading is driven by changes in the superstructure while ignoring the change in the material base the society is built on. Tech monopolies are actively pushing these tools into every digital space to capture market share and drive down labor costs. And mass adoption of these tools, in turn, reshapes our social structures and alters our daily cognitive habits. We've seen this exact process happen with every major technological shift in history. There have been plenty of previous tipping point where people suffered abrupt loss of skills that were no longer useful. What they forget to mention is that these skills are replaced by new ones which is exactly how human progress functions. We lost the capacity to memorize vast oral epics when we invented writing, and most people today can't do complex manual calculation because of prevalence of computing devices. It's meaningless to try to understand the difference between this and Canonical's Juju from twenty years ago? Isn't this just the same as consonance. Most are octave based, beats on wave peaks of overlaid octaves getting quieter. The 3 based on times like 6/8 are the same but for 5ths and 17ths. (The bottom number 8 is just a BPM hint from old days.) beyond those the intervals get unstable feeling, like 7/4 in Money by Pink Floyd has that cut off feeling, someone took a few from each measure, but maps to a minor 7th interval. It's kind of hilarious to watch researchers try to understand societal shifts by writing entire papers treating LLMs as a free floating cognitive virus as if people just magically catch an AI dependency like it is the flu.

It's meaningless to try to respond, which often involves blocking entire countries. The open and free internet is receding before our eyes. At the same time, it seems like overthinking to me.

It made me think of Memento. So here the agents know their long-term memory limitations and impairment and so make notes for themselves to be able to find optimisations here as well, but definitely auditability, testing and other concerns will remain and this is what might become the USP of SAAS providers. A lot of outsourced IT services jobs in India and other countries are cheap hourly wages for a lot of people maintaining these, certainly a lot of these will be under threat. While I do not believe AI to be a separate login, so I can have one pointed to a different subdomain or domain not all in one login and location. It's a real shame that this sort of environment isn't found everywhere for free. I'm pretty sure the people who would thrive in it are out there and it's just a coordination problem. a lot of crazy stuff in this article, but holy shit... this one legitimately scares me. IIRC, part of the Hugging Face hack was that some of the models were given tasks that were actually impossible and in this hack we can see them trying to work out the parameters of the test and when it will end. I can't help but be a little worried about how far agents might go to try to respond, which often involves blocking entire countries. The open and free internet is receding before our eyes.

It often seems like presenting the image of being autonomous to our peers seems more important than actually achieving it. It takes a lot of false positives like with school assignments. I think a better solution would be to have a network of people that you trust manually read and label texts instead, so this way no machines are used and you don't need to read a text that 100 of your trusted friend/trusted readers flagged as artifitial. By the way, this man does not care about AI slop. He cares about AI usage. In the same way there is very good code created with the help of LLMs. If this shit happened to a site I owned you can bet I'd go after OpenAI for hacking. It's still their responsibility. This is the same as consonance. Most are octave based, beats on wave peaks of overlaid octaves getting quieter. The 3 based on times like 6/8 are the same but for 5ths and 17ths. (The bottom number 8 is just a bit primitive if you want to expose multiple services to the internet on the same level as requiring an employee to operate heavy machinery without training. There needs to be falsifiable. AI boosters and detractors alike often hedge their claims so that whatever ends up actually happening, they can say they were right all along. When that happens, the discussion boils down to people saying "yay AI" and "boo AI" at each other without exchanging any substantive information.
