  • Remember they’re doing this so that they can detect it themselves. I’m far from an expert, so maybe I’m misunderstanding something but the way I understand it, they’d be defeating their own tool if they go down this route. If they cycle the logit biases, how can they themselves detect if a random piece of text is generated? Which set of biases do they test?

    At the end of the day, you’re talking about raw text. There’s no option to sign it, or embed metadata or anything like that. You can’t even guarantee that you’re seeing the complete sample, or even a single sample! If there is a fingerprint, it’ll be detectable to anyone, and it’ll be easily removed.






  • You’re assuming they care about keeping their corruption hidden. They want absolute power! Who cares if the people know the system is corrupt if there’s nothing they can do about it. Most dems are already aware that this is a fight for democracy itself, and the reps will just say they’re “using the corruption to their advantage so they can fix it” or something.

    The strategy you’ve outlined relies too heavily on their winning the election fairly. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not impossible, but it’s far from a sure bet.









  • To be fair, none of that was in your original post. Not knowing all of that, I think it was a safe assumption you meant the allegations of mistreatment by the CCP, rather than the Falun Gong claims of benevolence.

    Obviously you didn’t though, and a quick Google search suggests you might have some valid points. I didn’t know any of that!

    However, I do want to point out that you could say most of the same things about fundamental Christians, and while I’d personally take the same view of those types ( I do believe they’re a dangerous cult) I wouldn’t say anyone calling them peaceful religious types was engaging in “Alex Jones level of manipulation of the truth” and wouldn’t discount them entirely for holding that view. Particularly when, as you say, it’s very likely they are actually being persecuted

    But hey, if nothing else I think you’ve shown that I have no idea what I’m talking about here. Maybe that comparison doesn’t actually hold. Also, for all I know he’s a bought and paid for propagandist. Honestly, nothing surprises me these days


  • I don’t think what he’s saying about Falun Gong is so far fetched to be outside the realm of plausibility.

    There’s been enough reports of similar treatment of other groups, like the Uyghurs and Tibetans, from reputable sources that I believe something is going on there.

    As for sources, if the CCP is half as bad as he makes them out to be, it would be irresponsible of him to give sources.

    I don’t know enough to refute anything you’ve said, but frankly you’re less credible than him right now. I mean no offense but you have a single comment on your account and you’ve offered nothing to support your claim of twisted truth.

    Too much smoke to conclude there’s no fire
