Not an expert at all, so thanks for clarifying what the alphafold project is in more detail. My bad on the confusing wording as well, i specifically mentioned my distrust of commodified llms to distinguish that from whatever alphafold and similar projects would be (don’t know if that use of ai has a specific term).
From what I know of the project it seems to be nice use of ai tech, am i wrong in that? Genuinely asking :)
“AS DESCRIBED” IN THAT CONTEXT WOULD MEAN IDIOT, AS THAT WAS HOW THE ONE YOU REPLIED TO DESCRIBES THEM
Edit:
i did start an ‘actual discussion’
Fuck you too my man. The ‘ignorant’ thing is entirely a pivot. You’ve only mentioned it now after several comment doubling down on them being idiots and that’s its their own fault.
Being willfully ignorant and an idiot are entirely different things and had you said wilfully ignorant there would have been no discussion at all.
And I’m not accepting you trying to act like I’m the unreasonable one for pointing out that what you wrote is a fucking asshole thing to say. And if you didn’t mean it like, then that should’ve been clarified long ago, with a ‘yeah that was a rude framing what i actually meant was this:’
Instead of acting like you have been saying reasonable stuff all along, when no, you’ve only pivoted to a reasonable proposition now, in the face of criticism
Jesus christ just apologize and move on how hard is it to say “yeah sorry that was a bit rude”
Instead of this passive aggressive stinkpiece
Have some dignity, please
I absolutely hate public facing llms as a product, but, there can be some undeniably good things to come out out of it, just because you said you knew of zero positives, here’s at least a single good one
https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/ ^^ Database of every way (afaik) proteins can be folded and what effect that has on the protein, has already been used extensively to develop new medicine and vaccines.
Edit: Not a database of everything at all, it’s a predictive model. I don’t know that much about this lol. Check out the explanation below, much more in depth
Curing the sick and ill I’m pretty sure we can agree is a positive?
I still think the negatives far outweigh the few positives there might be associated, but it is true that as a tool it can be productive if used correctly.
No the original commenter said idiot, with some caveats that it’s not because the people are stupid, it’s because they’re being treated like idiots by the company, and you reply, yeah no actually they are just idiots
You never wrote the word ignorance before now
Bulshitt ass backpeddling. You have only written ‘its their own fault’ untill now. And then you try to act like ‘oh my god dude I’ve only been referring to people keeping themselves wilfully ignorant…’
Okay then fucking write out the words you mean instead of all this other horsecock that you apparently can’t stand by.
“people that are stupider than me, that’s their fault”
Whelp you heard it here first folks, apparently some people get to manually allocate IQ points before birth?
i think people should be able to live peacefully as idiots without being fucked over by greedy corpos but thats just me i guess
no, actually, STOP BLAMING THE IDIOTS YOU FUCKING DOUCHEBAG. HELP THEM MAKE BETTER CHOICES IF YOURE SO GODDAMN MUCH BETTER THAN THEM.
i hate your antisocial holier than thou attitude
That’s great 😂
Hell yeah brother
Same reason the turtle is rocking a beret i imagine
Thanks for the in depth explanation, very cool of you, and i think i follow most of it. You rock 🤘
