AI is a garbage generating plagiarism machine. It’s not political
Yes. Think about what it is plagiarising. Datasets are biased; this is like statistics/ML 101.
outside of a single country where everything has to look political to prevent people from voting independent,
You can just say the country, and also, this doesn’t really make any sense. Am I to infer that, if things weren’t political, people would vote (a famously political action) for independents?
and the only regulation AI ever needs is one declaring all it produces a derivative work of all the material it used for learning.
I’m pretty sure there’s a lot more wrong with LLMs than just plagiarism.
Any attempts to ascribe further properties to that remixing machines are just natural intelligence equivalent of slop.
I’m not 100% sure what you mean here.
Day 12:
P1
Ok. I have been traumatised by computational geometry before, so I was initially spiralling. Luckily, there wasn’t too much comp geo stuff to recall.
My solution was a lot simpler than I initially thought: no need for union-find, accounting for regions inside regions, etc. Just check every square for a given region, and if it touches a square in the same region that you’ve seen before, subtract the common edge. This is linear in the area of the problem, so it’s fast enough.
P2
It took a moment to figure out that I could modify the above perimeter counting to mark the squares containing the perimeter and walk along it afterwards, counting each edge. This is also linear in area.
