  • Did you have an adult in your life constantly telling you how lucky you are and it will only get worse when you were a teen? That shit robs you of your joy then and later; that mentality sets you up for failure. That’s what OPs post is describing. And if you think that people who are disabled or can’t make ends meet can’t have joy in their lives then you’re reinforcing the narrative that you must have certain things in order to “win at life”. Even if there is an element of truth to the sentiment there’s no reason to blow out of proportion that life is one endless stream of misery once you’re X many years older













  • An oversimplification but Imagine you have an algebraic math function where every word in English can be assigned a number.

    x+y+z=n where x y z are the three words in a sentence. N is the next predicted word based on the coefficients of the previous 3.

    Now imagine you have 10 trillion coefficients instead of 3. That’s an LLM, more or less. Except it’s done procedurally and there’s actually not that many input variables (context window) just a lot of coefficients per input
