LLM Inferences for Legal References?

Hey everyone, I’ve been searching for a bit on getting local LLM inference to process legal paperwork (I am not a lawyer, I just have trouble through large documents to figure out my rights). This would help me have conversations with my landlord and various other people who will withhold crucial information such as your...

dartos,

Generally, training an llm is a bad way to provide it with information. “In-context learning” is probably what you’re looking for. Basically just pasting relevant info and documents into your prompt.

You might try fine tuning an existing model on a large dataset of legalese, but then it’ll be more likely to generate responses that sound like legalese, which defeats the purpose

TL;DR Use in context learning to provide information to an LLM Use training and fine tuning to change how the language the llm generates sounds.

TikTok is blocking searches for WGA amid the ongoing writers strike (www.mediamatters.org)

Users on TikTok searching for “WGA” are met with a screen claiming that the phrase “may be associated with behavior or content that violates our guidelines.” No videos return. Users are also unable to search for the “WGA” hashtag....

dartos,

Probably money. Given enough money, I’m sure tiktok will ban any search term

dartos,

Lemmy has some very aggressive communists.

I’ve been lucky enough to dodge the crazy right wingers though.

dartos,

I’m fine with the lesser of two evils.

dartos,

I think that’s awful an immature behavior. When you fight idiocy with aggression (at least on social media) you just get idiots who think they must be right and start truth social or something

dartos,

I call those crazy left wingers.

dartos,

Complicated issues are complicated. Neither Reddit, lemmy, Twitter (x?), nor any social media platform is particularly well suited towards discussing complex decisive topics.

dartos,

I usually just ignore them.

I find that a lot of crazy right wingers do it to “own the libs” or get a rise out of their supposed enemies. It’s all just a sports game to people like that.

If you ignore them they get bored and stop being so staunch in their awful beliefs. When you fight with them it makes them feel like they’re right. You end up forcing them to rationalize every shitty position.

Almost nobody posts on the internet trying to challenge and reconsider their beliefs, so it’s not like you’re going to change their mind anyway.

I mean that’s what I think, at least

dartos,

Ok, buddy

dartos,

And here we see an aggressive communist in the wild. You have a good day, dude

dartos,

Lol

dartos,

Awe well I still hope you have a good day.

dartos,

lol

dartos,

The news bot posts are more annoying to me than the politics.

At least here there’s more than trump lovers and trump haters.

I hate scrolling into infinite bot posts with 0 comments

dartos,

Hey yknow that’s a good point.

dartos,

Yknow I’m talking about on social media platforms, right?

Frothing at the mouth raging at someone on a social media platform doesn’t do anything but cause more radicalization, so I just ignore people instead. I don’t spend most of my life fighting with people on the internet over politics.

dartos,

Exactly

dartos,

It’s just polarizing. You’re just making people more staunch in their beliefs or just annoying people who would rather not deal with aggression (like myself)

If your goal is to drive people away and make a space where everyone just agrees with you all the time then it’s effective.

dartos,

They can do whatever they want.

I don’t care what other people do, I just ignore people I don’t think are worth failing with.

And yeah pass judgement if you want, but how I choose to deal with people on the internet is up to me.

dartos,

I have no goal here. Just sharing my opinions. Not failing to do anything.

Yeah being aggressive is good for driving people away. And yknow given that your goal is actually to drive people away I was wrong to say it’s immature.

I just don’t like aggression. I don’t go on the internet looking for fights.

dartos,

It def adds some flavor to the social media political scene

dartos,

I think most people (correctly imo) don’t see how a large enough company can operate without some hierarchy, which seems to run up against the idea of being entirely equally employee owned.

There’s always going to be leaders (manager or just someone who others listen to) That person necessarily has more responsibility and control than his peers and is justly compensated more (otherwise nobody would put in extra work, say, to train as an engineer or doctor)

That person has their own interests that don’t always line up with the company and may use their influence to guide the company in a way that benefits them.

Suddenly you have a worker class and a bourgeois-esque class.

Most people (incorrectly imo) think that the “unbiased” checks and balances in government counteract that.

If there’s another option that accounts for hierarchies in large employee owned and operated companies let me know…. please

EDIT: large as in number of employees

dartos,

You didn’t present any ideas or solutions to argue against. There’s no argument happening here.

Nor are there strawmen because there’s no argument being made.

You said that there’s generally a lack of imagination with regards to this stuff and I was just sharing my opinions as to why.

dartos,

Looks like they got that number from this quote from another arstechnica article ”…OpenAI admitted that its AI Classifier was not “fully reliable,” correctly identifying only 26 percent of AI-written text as “likely AI-written” and incorrectly labeling human-written works 9 percent of the time”

Seems like it mostly wasn’t confident enough to make a judgement, but 26% it correctly detected ai text and 9% incorrectly identified human text as ai text. It doesn’t tell us how often it labeled AI text as human text or how often it was just unsure.

EDIT: this article arstechnica.com/…/openai-discontinues-its-ai-writ…

dartos,

People are dumb.

dartos,

I mean it should always be some kind of removed 3rd party drawing the lines. But nobody in power wants to give that power up.

dartos,

People way into politics and pedophiles always causing trouble on the internet

dartos,

That took time though.

Ssh only started getting major industry support after heart bleed and it’s been the go to secure shell for at least over a decade before that.

dartos,

That’s the open source life though :/

Almost nobody gets rich from open source. You’re explicitly granting rights that people usually pay for.

It’s noble, but it sucks.

dartos,

What “things in html, css, and js” does Firefox not support that prevents you from using it?

WebGPU has been the biggest one for me, but most sites don’t even use it.

dartos,

I think all religions are just fake copycats of the one true god.

Praise be Flying Spaghetti Monster

What to learn next, Swift or Rust

I’ve been programming for decades, though usually for myself, not as a profession. My current go-to language is Python, but I’m thinking of learning either Swift (I’m currently on the Apple ecosystem), or Rust. Which one do you think will be the best in terms of machine learning support in a couple of years and how easy is...

dartos,

I think rust is good for learning some low level concepts, especially coming from python.

I don’t think Python is going anywhere in the ML space though.

dartos,

A programming language itself isn’t a marketable skill!

Learn the underlying concepts of programming and how computers work and you’ll be able to move from language/framework to pretty much any language/framework easily.

dartos,

I have to disagree. I’ve been conducting interviews for a fairly large software shop (~2000 engineers) for about 3 years now and, unless I’m doing an intern or very entry level interview, I don’t care what language they use (both personally and from a company interviewer policy), as long as they can show me they understand the principles behind the interview question (usually the design of a small file system or web app)

Most devs with a good understanding of underlying principles will be able to start working on meaningful tasks in a number of days.

It’s the candidates who spent their time deep diving into a specific tool or framework (like leaving a rails/react boot camp or something) that have the hardest time adjusting to new tools.

Plus when your language/framework falls out of favor, you’re left without much recourse.

dartos,

Tbh it kind of is as long as you’re fluent in assembly

dartos,

OP out here just trying to get upvotes.

dartos,

dartos,

Literally the comment I was going to write

dartos,

I may be wrong, but I don’t see socialism and capitalism as hard opposites.

I see capitalism and communism are like hard opposites with socialism somewhere in between.

dartos,

So I understand total capitalism as an entirely market driven economy with no government influence

And total communism as an entirely planned and government prescribed economy

And socialism as some of the economy is market driven and some government planned.

dartos,

It just wouldn’t have existed at all without VC funding.

Lemmy exists now because Reddit already existed, built the model link sharing site, and over years of ad revenue and VC money, convinced communities to gather there and then convinced those same communities to move to lemmy

dartos,

I learned that “capitalism” is an economic system, not a system of government.

So you could have a socialist state that funds essentials like healthcare and transportation through taxes with a market (capitalist) economy.

dartos,

I meant the platform more than the company.

It’s my favorite format for social media… that’s why I’m on lemmy.

dartos,

Lemmy would not have existed without Reddit. Lemmy is a clone of reddit!

Plus reddit put all the work intro attracting users and communities in the first place, before driving them to places like lemmy.

dartos,

I know about Aaron Schwartz. His beliefs didn’t change the fact that Reddit had major VC backing and wouldn’t have existed without it.

It’s really not a hard concept to grasp.

dartos,

Bruh, reddit was created in search of capital. It grew and attracted communities in search of capital.

Reddit wouldn’t have existed otherwise.

dartos,

I mean if you want to be all sensible about it, sure.

It’s just a tool. The real scam is that the 1% pay such a low share of their actual income (including capital gains)
