@[email protected] Could you post that in the body for us?

We're getting reports of this not being news/an article

My experience has been very different, I do have to sometimes add to what it summarized though. The Bsky account mentioned is a good example, most of the posts are very well summarized, but every now and then there will be one that isn't as accurate.

Most of what I'm asking it are things I have a general idea of, and AI has the capability of making short explanations of complex things. So typically it's easy to spot a hallucination, but the pieces that I don't already know are easy to Google to verify.

Basically I can get a shorter response to get the same outcome, and validate those small pieces which saves a lot of time (I no longer have to read a 100 page white paper, instead a few paragraphs and then verify small bits)

Yes, I'm saving time. As I mentioned in my other comment:

Yeah, normally my "Make this sound better" or "summarize this for me" is a longer wall of text that I want to simplify, I was trying to keep my examples short.

And

and helps correct my shitty grammar at times.

And

Hallucinations are a thing, so validating what it spits out is definitely needed.

Yeah, normally my "Make this sound better" or "summarize this for me" is a longer wall of text that I want to simplify, I was trying to keep my examples short. Talking to non-technical people about a technical issue is not the easiest for me, AI has helped me dumb it down when sending an email, and helps correct my shitty grammar at times.

As for accuracy, you review what it gives you, you don't just copy and send it without review. Also you will have to tweak some pieces that it gives out where it doesn't make the most sense, such as if it uses wording you wouldn't typically use. It is fairly accurate though in my use-cases.

Hallucinations are a thing, so validating what it spits out is definitely needed.

Another example: if you feel your email is too stern or gives the wrong tone, I've used it for that as well. "Make this sound more relaxed: well maybe if you didn't turn off the fucking server we wouldn't of had this outage!" (Just a silly example)

Writing customer/company-wide emails is a good example. "Make this sound better: we're aware of the outage at Site A, we are working as quick as possible to get things back online"

Dumbing down technical information "word this so a non-technical person can understand: our DHCP scope filled up and there were no more addresses available for Site A, which caused the temporary outage for some users"

Another is feeding it an article and asking for a summary, https://hackingne.ws/ does that for its Bsky posts.

Coding is another good example, "write me a Python script that moves all files in /mydir to /newdir"

Asking for it to summarize a theory or protocol, "explain to me why RIP was replaced with RIPv2, and what problems people have had since with RIPv2"

Hey, I appreciate that!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And you're entitled to that opinion my friend, lets have a good day.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

They are very different. One is hostile (not excellent), the other is an opinion.

Thanks for pointing out the typo.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (5 children)

Sorry you feel that way!

Saying someone is lying and telling someone to "fuck off" are not the same, one breaks rule 3 and the other does not.

 

Greetings everyone,

We wanted to take a moment and let everyone know about the [email protected] community on Lemmy.World which hasn't gained much traction. Additionally, we've noticed occasional complaints about Business-related news being posted in the Technology community. To address this, we want to encourage our community members to engage with the Business community.

While we'll still permit Technology-related business news here, unless it becomes overly repetitive, we kindly ask that you consider cross-posting such content to the Business community. This will help foster a more focused discussion environment in both communities.

We've interacted with the mod team of the Business community, and they seem like a dedicated and welcoming group, much like the rest of us here on Lemmy. If you're interested, we encourage you to check out their community and show them some support!

Let's continue to build a thriving and inclusive ecosystem across all our communities on Lemmy.World!

Seems that a lot of us have some funny Unity memes, which have been getting removed due to Rule 7.

Making this post and pinning it for everyone to share their Unity memes about this whole fiasco, please only comment the memes here, if you make a post with one it will be removed.

Hey everyone!

We have decided to do a banner and logo contest, here is how to participate:

  1. Any submission must be commented below in its own thread, that way they are easy for everyone to find. Any top level comments that are not a submission will be removed, commenting on submissions thread is allowed.
  2. Everyone can vote on the ones listed below to help the decision, but the mods will pick their favorites and make a separate post for the community to vote on.
  3. Obviously the design must be tech/news related, all art forms welcome, and please no NSFW. You can submit just a banner, or just a logo, or both if you wish!
  4. Winner will get sidebar acknowledgement and bragging rights. If multiple designs are liked by the community, we will most likely cycle threw a few different banners/logos throughout the year and give each credit on the sidebar.
  5. Anything Elon Musk will be launched by Space-X directly into the sun at the speed of light.
  6. Be excellent to each other!

Any questions can be messaged to either @[email protected] or myself!

[EDIT]: This is actually a scam.

Not sure if this is normal, created a sub 4 months ago. But yesterday I signed into Reddit to check if an admin has replied to a request I made and saw this, which was a little bizarre to me with everything going on...

My company is just starting to utilize O365 email encryption for sensitive information, which I know a lot of people are already using.

One thing we've run into is when sending a sensitive email to a third-party vendor, a lot of them utilize shared mailboxes/distribution groups, so the encryption is not allowing the members of the external mailbox/group to open the encrypted email as their account doesn't have permissions (the group email address does, instead of their individual account).

The only way I've come up with to solve this issue is setting the encrypted emails to not allow a "social" sign-on for decryption, and instead only offer "send a one-time passcode" as the authentication method, then the group/mailbox receives the code to view the email.

Curious how others have combatted this issue if they've crossed it, this feature has been around a while and I am unable to find much on Google about it specifically.

For the moment, users are just re-sending the encrypted email to the external recipient that replies "We can't open this email", which solves the problem but creates more work and takes longer for everyone.

 

Twitch is replacing the mature content toggle with content classification labels so viewers can make 'informed choices'.

 

A few years ago I had a couple old and slow Optiplex's running Hyper-V, with Windows/Linux VM's, doing things like NPS, AD, etc.

Had some old equipment collecting dust, so I've built out a decent homelab and am curious if anyone else has done the same, and if so what are they running on them for fun?

In my new "rack":

  • PowerEdge R430
    • Running ProxMox, with a Windows VM (DC), and a Linux VM with Docker for Plex
  • EqualLogic PS4100
    • VM storage for both PowerEdge servers (10TB)
  • Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch 24 250w
  • PowerEdge R720
    • Running ProxMox, with some Linux VM's, most utilizing Docker for Plex "assistance/automations" (ahem), NextCloud for phone photo backup and wife's photography, and another DC as a failover of R430's DC.
