    You should aim to drink at least 2 quarts (2 liters) of urine every 24 hours, and your urine should be light in color.

    I keep drinking my urine, but it just keeps getting darker and darker with each pass 😭

    I swear, I can’t tell the difference between AI answers and the shit people make up with inspect element for the memes anymore.

      The problem with AI isn’t that it’s not smart enough. The problem is it’s trained on data generated by humanity, which is mostly composed of idiots.

      God dammit, I watched that movie for the first time like a month ago (my housemates wanted to watch it with me) and since then I’m (apparently) suddenly seeing references for the first time

    We should start poisoning the LLMs by spreading misinformation in online spaces. That would be funny i think

    Having had kidney stones, I think I got to a point before they finally gave me some fentanyl that I would have been willing to try it if it would have made the pain stop.

      I’ve had kidney stones (I think) for two or three years now. It fucks off for a bit, comes back, gets infected, fucks my immune system up, then gets better.

      I guess that fucker is too big to get down to where the extreme pain comes in.

      I’m an idiot. I should have dealt with it already, but I seen my poor grandpa and uncle suffer once it started moving. I believe I’d rather die.

        The pain is a lesser problem than getting chronic kidney infections. If you know the stones are the cause, you need to see a urologist to figure out a solution. Recurring inflammation from the stones and infections can cause more and more problems as you age, and may potentially affect your renal function down the line.

        I think they can use ultrasound to break them up so you can pass them if they’re too large to pass. Mine was small enough that I passed it after a few days thankfully.

              Maybe I’m being scared of nothing and I’m tougher than I think to be dealing with it this long.

              My uncle literally fell to the ground and said, “my gut has busted, I’m going to die right here.”

              He’s the toughest son of a bitch I’ve ever known.

                  No pain meds for me. That’s part of the problem. I’m an ex junkie in a medication assisted treatment program for a decade or more. I just gotta deal with it.

    So I guess the answer is to drink something coming off a pristine mountain. Some dew, perhaps?

    It’s the rule of modern engineering. You will always be served the worst possible product that can claim to have some utility. If it’s not on the edge of being useful someone didn’t engineer hard enough.

      That’s not necessarily wrong, but not the big explaining factor here I think. The technological challenges behind aligning ML models with factual reality aren’t solved, so it’s not an engineering decision. It’s more that AI is remarkably easy to market as being more capable than it is

        To expand: I feel like it should be emphasised more that current “AI” models are, at best, hallucinating.

        Their output may look real enough and for some purposes they may be perfectly suitable, but ultimately, they have no concept of the semantic objects related to the words they learn and the semantic relationships between those objects. Without that, they can’t possibly guarantee that the implied semantic connection of the combination of words they produce aligns with the actual relationships.

        You can use a LLM to help translate bullet points into text of a given tone (like abstracts for theses that sound scientific), but you’ll still have to check the factuality and consistency of those texts. When using them to write texts about something you already know, that’s doable and can save you some work. But using it like in the OP to aggregate and present “new” facts without supervision is dangerous, because you can’t actually verify what you don’t already know.

        But “Copilot can scrape your data to give you some pointers and spare some of the tedium of finding it yourself, but you shouldn’t take it for gospel truth” doesn’t quite sell as nicely as “Microsoft Copilot leverages the power of AI to boost productivity, unlock creativity, and helps you understand information better”.
