Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Technically I already made a locally running chatbot of myself my gf has access to trained on my early messages with her using a GitHub project I found and changed a file or two in, so does that render me immortal in some capacity? Would I make money from this by preying on the vulnerable if I was a vulture capitalist?
vulture capatalist is a phrase referring to groups that watch for collapsing systems that then go in and make investments when prices are low, such as when a country's housing market collapses. its not a blanket perjorative for people who try to make money.
Catapultist
TIL. Had no idea it was even already a term but should've guessed as much. Maybe I could spin it to say society as a whole is collapsing, and human life has a low value right now?
if you're feeling exceptionally nihillistic this morning, sure :)
If you were a Vulture you'd be too busy buying up 3rd world countries debt and then suing those countries for payment.
You wouldn't have time to muck around with a chatbot.
She's a tad confused sometimes, but she's got the spirit, which now that I think about it just about tracks
Link to the github project?

Note my WhatsApp chats were nothing like this dude's format, they were actually way way worse and had little to deliminate by in the loose text file it exported out to, so I had to write my own very dirty code to recreate the files, it's way easier with Telegram chat exports and I should've just done that so just sayin' YMMV.
I'll probably share my code once I get the actual telegram bot API integration all cleaned up and add some features
I've been planning on rewriting some of the training code also but I hardly really understand this stuff, my ML knowledge ends with simple classifiers
If you were a vulture, I'd assume you'd be looking for some sweet, sweet carrion. Maybe some water to wash it down.
