What does kbin mean? Why is kbin.social called that?

Is it just random letters arrived to by keyboard mashing like a lot of federated websites seem, or is there any thought behind it?

probably a big bin for k's

And we're gonna need all those different k's if ever want to find out how Kenya is spelled.

Ah, the joys of large "language" models...

Wtf?

Just tried this for myself and got the same result. That's bizarre.

That's chatGPT. But be very afraid, it's totally gonna take your job!

ChatGPT won't be what takes your job, it's what comes after.

I seriously don't understand the people who disregard it based on the state of ChatGPT. It will only get better over time. And by over time, I mean weeks to months; this tech is maturing faster and faster. The change from GPT3 to ChatGPT to GPT4 to GPT4 that can see images, has all come in the blink of an eye.

Human labor is on borrowed time

Maybe historically. But the more I used or got exposed to chatGPT the more I realised how bad it still is. It certainly won't be coming for my job, even in the next 20 years, I'm sure of that. It's a bit like nuclear fusion. It's been ready for use in the next 25 years for like 75 years.

If you're using ChatGPT, you're using an outdated model. GPT-4 is better than it and has been out for some time.

ChatGPT is weaker and not something I'd use frequently. GPT-4 is much stronger and much more useful. And the next generation is coming soon, which will be better than GPT-4.

It's not like fusion in its current state since LLM AIs are already ready for use. The only task is making it more effective. Using the fusion example, it would be like if we'd finally developed a reactor that generates more energy than it consumed, and now only sought to make it create more power

So kind of like K Mart?

Fun fact, Kbin is actually where all the big Ks from all the signs went when all the Kmarts shut down. Only, it turns out they were made of meat all along, so the refrigeration costs have been pretty significant... Kbin only runs the social media platform to earn enough money to pay for it all.
