This community really needs ~~better~~ moderation IMO.

Great read, I was unfamiliar with this publication. Thanks for sharing.

CasaOS or YunoHost are great places to start and hold your hand the whole way, while allowing you to tip toe into more advanced setups later on as you learn.

My first thought when GPT first released was "oh this is how search engines will be able to serve ads without disclosing that they are serving ads"

It's for image recognition. Nothing sad about it. Great feature.

LLMs ≠ AI. I wish more people in the media would realize that even the most advanced LLM possible cannot achieve "AGI". That is just not how they work. It's like saying that if you make a car that can spin it's wheels fast enough then it can go to space. It's not what wheels do.

Not saying you're wrong (pretty sure you're not) but important to remember that the reason LLMs use a lot of em dashes is because it features so prominently in journalism.

Tech CEO's all learning the heard way that LLMs ≠ Natural language processing

Importantly, the WhoSampled you know and love is here to stay as a standalone platform and brand. It will continue to operate much as it always has

If Microsoft's AI actually worked I would be more impressed but it "hallucinates" so often that it becomes nearly worthless.

Bazzite is good for noobs looking for a gaming option because it's "immutable" which means the OS filesystem can't be edited, which makes it nearly impossible to break.

Mint is still very noob friendly, just not immutable. Both are solid options because neither one requires any command line to get it on-par with Windows.

I am trying out Kinoite now but it's very similar. I think the immutable distros are best for people who want a "Just works" experience to start with.
