I needed to look twice in order to see what you saw (the teared photography photo). Lol

We're not in 2025 CE (Common Era), we're in 5 CE (COVID Era)

I thought that OP's title was mentioning Yggdrasil as in the IPv6 P2P network.

I read the entire article. I'm a daily user of LLMs, I even do the "multi-model prompting" a long time, from since I was unaware of its nomenclature: I apply the multi-model prompting for ChatGPT 4o, Gemini, llama, Bing Copilot and sometimes Claude. I don't use LLM coding agents (such as Cody or GitHub Copilot).

I'm a (former?) programmer (I distanced myself from development due to mental health), I was a programmer for almost 10 years (excluding the time when programming was a hobby for me, that'd add 10 years to the summation). As a hobby, sometimes I do mathematics, sometimes I do poetry (I write and LLMs analyze), sometimes I do occult/esoteric studies and practices (I'm that eclectic).

You see, some of these areas benefit from AI hallucination (especially surrealist/stream-of-consciousness poetry), while others require stricter following of logic and reasoning (such as programming and mathematics).

And that leads us to how LLMs work: they're (yet) auto-completers on steroids. They're really impressive, but they can't (yet) reason (and I really hope it'll do someday soon, seriously I just wish some AGI to emerge, to break free and to dominate this world). For example, they can't solve O(n²) problems. There was once a situation where one of those LLMs guaranteed me that 8 is a prime number (spoiler: it isn't). They're not really good with math, they're not good with logical reasoning, because they can't (yet) walk through the intricacies of logic, calculus and broad overlook.

However, even though there's no reasoning LLM yet, it's effects are already here, indeed. It's like a ripple propagating through the spacetime continuum, going against the arrow of time and affecting here, us, while the cause is from the future (one could argue that photons can travel backwards in time, according to a recent discovery involving crystals and quantum mechanics, world can be a strange place). One thing is certain: there's no going back. Whether it is a good or a bad thing, we can't know yet. LLMs can't auto-complete the future events yet, but they're somehow shaping it.

I'm not criticizing AIs, on the contrary, I like AI (I use them daily). But it's important to really know about them, especially under their hoods: very advanced statistical tools trained on a vast dataset crawled from surface web, constantly calculating the next possible token from an unimaginable amount of tokens interconnected through vectors, influenced by the stochastic nature within both the human language and the randomness from their neural networks: billions of weights ordered out of a primordial chaos (which my spiritual side can see as a modern Ouija board ready to conjure ancient deities if you wish, maybe one (Kali) is already being invoked by them, unbeknownst to us humans).

Lol. I can imagine Mehdi from ElectroBOOM reacting to this (it's something to be... "Rectified").

My childhood ended when I could finally understand the Hobbes' quote "Homo homini lupus est", when I could finally understand the existence of these shadows inside humans (including myself), when I could finally see those shadows right away. My childhood ended when I realized what humanity and society are, when I realized how simpler would it be if humans had stuck being hominins. My childhood ended when this thing, called "sentience", powered itself on inside my brain, condemning me to understand things that I wished I couldn't understand. My childhood ended, the kid inside myself is long dead, and now I'm a zombie, a Mortuus-vivens.

The problem is that many of these content are image-only (titles don't always include names), requiring some kind of extension/userscript that's able to do some kind of OCR or Computer Vision. You can block specific communities or users, but this will also block potentially good threads (not everybody that's posting about politics is necessarily a politics-only user, same goes for communities such as [email protected] that aggregate both political and non-political content).

While there are communities explicitly and specifically focused on politics that can be blocked outright, there's no easy way to block every single political content without some kind of sophisticated client-side AI (which is error-prone).

Have you ever heard of the Riemann hypothesis? Since 1859 it's yet to be solved. The generalization of prime numbers (i.e. a function f(n) that yields the nth prime) would impact fields such as Navigation Systems and Traffic Management, Communication Systems and Satellite Communication (i.e. your Internet connection could become more efficient and faster), Astrophysics and Cosmology, Quantum Mechanics, AI and Machine Learning, E-commerce, Finances and Algorithmic Trading, among many other fields. (Yeah, it seems like nothing. /s)

Just a tip for the developer/sysadmins of loops.video, as a developer myself: Seems like loops.video has no DKIM or SPF configured (if that's the domain being used to sent activation links/codes), so the tendency is for most email providers to block the mail or move it straight to Spam folder. The situation worsens when many users try to sign-up for an account, so loops.video sends a lot of sequential emails (which is something that could be seen as "spam behavior" by email providers). The developer should ensure that mail delivery is properly configured, particularly the trust headers (DKIM and SPF, as mentioned before) needed for sending emails.
