I’ve always meant to do this, but after hearing about the AI thing I want to get it done. Is there no free solution? I have too much history to clear manually.

EDIT: PowerDeleteSuite did the trick, thanks!

    Unfortunately, they still have your comments saved in a database somewhere for LLMs to work on.

    Why are we calling them AI when they aren’t? Why is AGI now what we’ve been calling AI all this time? Is it all just marketing and did “news” outlets just go with it because it was easier?

      It’s because language evolves. LLMs aren’t the traditional AI, but we’ve been referring to things like NPCs in video games as AI and all sorts of other decision making trees as AI for so long that we’ve muddied the waters as to the term’s meaning that we needed to get specific with AGI to denote that it would be something different.

      It annoys me too, but better to get on board than rail against the current of the ocean.

        If it’s intelligent and it’s artificial, it’s AI. That’s not even a definition that’s just how adjectives and nouns work.

        We bent the definition quite a bit when we waited to apply them only to systems controlling person-like models. We could have put the term on thermostats and automatic transmissions.

              Money isn’t real, invest in the only stable currency: memes

              ok maybe it’s not any more stable but it is funnier

      As someone who studied CS and has followed the field of AI for a long time, you have it backwards. Machine Learning and GPTs like ChatGPT have always fallen under the umbrella of AI. Using “AI” to refer exclusively to AGI is a new trend.

      To be a bit combatative here, in my opinion this new definition of “AI” that some people insist on using is either repeated by people who don’t understand the history of the terms, or intentionally spread to mislead people by others who want to win an argument by redefining terms.

      I’ll keep repeating this until someone answers it: name one task an AGI can do with text input and text output, that an LLM can’t do.

      Hmm…I bet they use the text from edits as training data too. Maybe you could poison the results by hooking a edit bot to a random text generator?
