Origen's response: "What, James says, that man is not justified by faith alone, but also by works, does not at all militate against the preceding view. The reconciling of the two views depends chiefly on the drift of the argument pursued by James. For the question with him is not, how men attain righteousness before God, but how they prove to others that they are justified, for his object was to confute hypocrites, who vainly boasted that they had faith. Gross then is the sophistry, not to admit that the word, to justify, is taken in a different sense by James, from that in which it is used by Paul; for they handle different subjects. The word, faith, is also no doubt capable of various meanings. These two things must be taken to the account, before a correct judgment can be formed on the point. We may learn from the context, that James meant no more than that man is not made or proved to be just by a feigned or dead faith, and that he must prove his righteousness by his works. See on this subject my Institutes."

My point is that although there is a ton of data that can be used, the data that we have currently will eventually run out, even if that takes many, many years. This is a very long-term thought experiment, and even if the problem of distinguishing between AI-generated content and human-produced content is never solved, this still probably wouldn't affect the advancement of AI within either of our lifetimes.

I like Hanabie, very good band. This is my favorite song of theirs, probably because it's what introduced me to them.

Follow-up question, what's your favorite cheese?

I don't live in Italy, so it is pepper jack.

Religion. If I didn't believe in God, I'd have no hope.

They usually just try to ignore me, but if they are unable to, then they seem to make great efforts to get out of interacting with me as soon as possible.

"It is not the way of the compassionate Maker to create rational beings in order to deliver them over mercilessly to unending affliction in punishment for things of which He knew even before they were fashioned, aware how they would turn out when He created them, and whom nonetheless He created." - Isaac the Syrian. God is good, and He shall be all in all.

Whoever the LP Presidential candidate is, probably. I know they’ll lose, but I don’t care.

Isn’t this the girl who kept making Tumblr rants about how much she hated her fans? If so, I’m pretty sure she’s a massive hypocrite. Well, I won’t deny that she looks cute, but there are better women like her out there.
