  • I do agree that if Republicans ran different candidates, ones that had any semblance of ideas (even bad ones) instead of the tired personal attacks, they’d be formidable. They’ve dug themselves into a hole with the MAGA movement, even worse than they did with the Tea Party, and they seem committed to ride this one all the way off the cliff. This really is Harris’ election to lose, and that seems to be a repeated pattern, which says a lot about the DNC. If they’d try to appeal more to the progressive side and stop trying to keep the centralists, I wonder if it would be a more of a sweep from people seeing something different finally.



  • If you have the equipment (mainly an Nvidia GPU that has the ability) doing voice cloning locally is the way to go if you keep running into legal issues. Plus being on your computer you may be able to tweak and try different methods to get the best results for your needs. A year ago this would have been a maybe, but there’s a lot out there to look at and try. See what others have done first in videos and such and follow their lead.








  • I tried it with my abliterated local model, thinking that maybe its alteration would help, and it gave the same answer. I asked if it was sure and it then corrected itself (maybe reexamining the word in a different way?) I then asked how many Rs in “strawberries” thinking it would either see a new word and give the same incorrect answer, or since it was still in context focus it would say something about it also being 3 Rs. Nope. It said 4 Rs! I then said “really?”, and it corrected itself once again.

    LLMs are very useful as long as know how to maximize their power, and you don’t assume whatever they spit out is absolutely right. I’ve had great luck using mine to help with programming (basically as a Google but formatting things far better than if I looked up stuff), but I’ve found some of the simplest errors in the middle of a lot of helpful things. It’s at an assistant level, and you need to remember that assistant helps you, they don’t do the work for you.
