king - man + woman is queen; but why? - Piotr Migdał

Words, vectors, analogies and conceptual metaphors - the linear space of word2vec and GloVe. Or: how to change gender with a vector.

Your request to not want to see US politics, or any topic, is fair. Especially given your view that it is your responsibility to filter, not others' responsibility to not talk about it.

Many people are so opposed to LLM based systems, that they've given up on regular statistical based regression filters. 🤷🏿‍♂️

You should be able to list topics that you don't want to hear about, and your client should score posts, and hide things that you don't want to see. You can do this without transformers.

Alternatively, BlueSky has composable moderation. Some human can read posts and tag as "US politics." Then you can subscribe to that filter, to not see it. Low effort for posters, good result for readers.

Telling people to add hash tags to everything is silly. It only makes sense from the position of someone in the default category, because they don't really think that they'll have to adorn everything they write with:

#white #male #whiteman #man #cis #dude #bro #ablebodied #whitepeople #pinkskinned #majority #justaguy #guy #caucasian #presumeddefault #stuffjustworksforme #benefitofthedoubt #thoughtoffirst

They presume themselves to be the default, and hash tags are for everyone else that deviates from their view of the world with them at the center.

The second part of the backup series is getting really long and comprehensive. I'm wondering if it makes sense to break it into more parts, but my concern is that it might then lose focus. It's probably better to just have one long second part, broken down into sections.

@stefano

I would not break up an explanation into smaller sections, just to have it easily digestible. Focus & concentration is needed; sometimes we have to read whole books in one hit to understand a subject thoroughly

I've done that before and I'm doing a time and time again

OH MY GOD THERE IS MORE.

You have to excuse him: he has the benefit of heighten (sic) pattern recognition.

“Signal will some sort of LLM integration in it soon.”

Meredith Whittaker (@meredithmeredith.bsky.social · 11h):

“They will, likely be timing up with Anthropic's Claude or Perplexity, but its coming. The engineers have already began laying out the ground work for such support.”

Continuation by Bill Mitchell:

Wow, straight to the name calling. No need to get hostile, but to answer your question - one doesn't have to be a genius to figure out the road map especially when the president has already tipped their hat as how they operated in the past. Signal went from a text message to a social app.

If the trend then becomes leveraging LLM on some level in messaging apps then that's where Signal will pivot to. Telegram one of its chief rivals was flirting with Grok. Meta which has three apps on the market has Llama integration. I have the benefit of heighten pattern recognition.

So yes, I do think I have a better insight than the president of the company. I'll wait while you try to remind me that Signal is non-profit, and I retort with something clever like "And how do you developers feed themselves". — Continuation by Bill Mitchell: Wow, straight to the name calling.
