Then you are misusing the platform. I'm suspending you for a week.

Standard preferences to properly orientate the LLM at the beginning of every conversation are good. Like this: So you keep this somewhere easy to find...
October 17, 2025 at 10:58
No, the idea is to encourage specific good practices in the use of LLMs, assuming they're going to be used. We are not encouraging people to use it if...

I think we should also really emphasize the stuff on confabulation. People seem to be unaware how much LLMs literally just make things up.
October 17, 2025 at 07:16
This is the thing I have a problem with. I dislike the reduction of philosophy to a set of arguments, with philosophers like puppets being made to fig...
October 17, 2025 at 06:53
Thanks, this is the kind of discussion we need. I like this. I asked Deepseek to incorporate it into a set of guidelines based on the existing AI disc...

It was probably hogget or mutton so that would explain the toughness. I love shoulder generally, just haven't had it grilled or fried before and took ...
October 16, 2025 at 10:19
Despite what I said I actually tend to think of the automation of tasks as something you take advantage of after you've learned how to do it manually,...

Oh it was lamb all right. I got the whole front leg and shoulder and butchered it myself without really knowing what I was doing, so maybe that was th...
October 16, 2025 at 08:22
Introduction: EXISTENTIALISM @"Moliere" I'm not jumping the gun here; I just want to look at something I'm particularly interested in, namely the role...

I thought lamb shoulder was just for slow cooking. I made the mistake of grilling some in the summer and it was very tough.
October 16, 2025 at 02:37
It can do, but not necessarily. Copernicus said "If AI helps me compose more correctly", so it's Copernicus who is doing the composing. Why believe th...

Nice.
October 15, 2025 at 14:08
Note that the term translated by Redmond as substantiality is Inhaltlichkeit. This is translated by Thorne and Menda as content. They also say the fol...
October 15, 2025 at 13:58
I think it's just about possible to argue that the popularity of Marx's philosophy might have been partly based on ressentiment—and that actions by so...
October 15, 2025 at 07:51
Or it might be more accurate to say that it is based on AI. Apparently it uses a variety of tools, all of them coming under the general AI categories ...
October 15, 2025 at 06:40
I mean, do you actually think this is all people are doing when they use ChatGPT or Deepseek? I'm sure that many are doing so (students using them to ...
October 15, 2025 at 05:54
It is AI, yes. Of course! This is the problem with the debates about AI: this idea that an AI tool is necessarily a replacement for thinking. That is ...
October 15, 2025 at 05:45
I guess you changed your mind about AI eh? I expect we'll see a lot of this. First people moan about AI, then a year later they're using it and have s...
October 15, 2025 at 05:33
@"Moliere" I'm interested to see what you think of the next section, which seems to be mainly about Sartre. Me, I haven't read any Sartre, so I'm not ...
October 15, 2025 at 04:34
I'm not convinced we disagree, but as @"frank" says, this kind of talk can get convoluted. It's at least partly a fractal kind of thing: you have this...
October 15, 2025 at 03:25
Intentional.
October 14, 2025 at 14:43
You can't.
October 14, 2025 at 14:38
Diapers are the original cargo pants.
October 14, 2025 at 12:12
Introduction: SUBSTANTIALITY AND METHOD The idea here goes back to a concern of Adorno's that has come up before: the required unity of form and conte...
October 14, 2025 at 07:57
And if it's delivered in my trousers, are my trousers cargo pants?
October 14, 2025 at 06:55
Yes. Substantiality is the domain of social mediation: And the content of that substantiality is social particulars, i.e., "the particular to be analy...
October 14, 2025 at 01:30
I see what you mean. As MU said...
October 13, 2025 at 22:37
To take breakfast might be old-fashioned but it is said.
October 13, 2025 at 12:23
Yeah, that doesn't help.
October 13, 2025 at 09:55
Sorry Copernicus, I warned you already, and you ignored me. You don't yet know how to properly participate here; maybe this will encourage you to lear...
October 13, 2025 at 09:54
One month.
October 13, 2025 at 09:46
Do it again. Do that again too.
October 13, 2025 at 09:45
That's correct. No particular limit. It's time for you to join other discussions or try to thoughtfully engage with your interlocutors in the discussi...
October 13, 2025 at 09:43
Here is something I find quite interesting. I have noticed, reading Jospeh Conrad and Vladimir Nabokov, that their English has a non-native feel to it...
October 13, 2025 at 05:09
Yep. And since Darkneos is refusing to edit the OP, I'm closing this discussion.
October 13, 2025 at 02:02
This is very childish. You actually chose to ignore these comments: I suggest you carry on discussing your OP, because I won't be posting in this disc...
October 12, 2025 at 15:43
I'll post in this topic as much as I want. That said, since it became clear yesterday (or whenever it was) that you were, in an arrogant and ridiculou...
October 12, 2025 at 15:00
My God frank, you are mightily obnoxious today. I am very well aware of the opinions of the moderator in question. But Hanover didn't deny that transw...
October 12, 2025 at 14:34
Is it any wonder people are flocking to LLMs for good conversation?
October 12, 2025 at 14:27
It's not outrageous to ask someone on a philosophy forum to back up an eccentric and implausible statement.
October 12, 2025 at 14:23
So I actually have to ask you to point me to where it was said, or to explain what was said? Because I'm pretty sure you're wrong.
October 12, 2025 at 14:20
I don't think so.
October 12, 2025 at 14:17
I don't want to know where it's from. I want you to edit the OP to properly identify the source of the quotation.
October 12, 2025 at 02:00
At least we now know that the North Georgia mountains exist. :up:
October 11, 2025 at 17:24
Plenty can be lobbed your way. It's just not worth it. I have my sanity and peace of mind to preserve.
October 11, 2025 at 17:00
That is a really stupid post.
October 11, 2025 at 16:53
Obviously if "man" is only about sex, trans men are not men. But this "if" is what is being debated, so you're just begging the question. The debate h...
October 11, 2025 at 16:41
:cool:
October 11, 2025 at 11:24
This is useful information. I had it in my mind that it didn't use the spaces, so I started using spaces to distinguish myself. I guess I'll go back t...
