What's the point of pardons then? Our current administration ran on a platform of paying criminals who were convicted of breaking laws.
Please don't break HN rules. Where's @dang when you need him? I'm as smart/dumb as anyone else on here and I'm sorry this conversation turned into whatever this is.
My point is I was replying to a comment that said most of Florida will be underwater in 2100, which is not true, as I said. What is your point?
Your link implies less than 2m, strengthening my point?
This is not true. Even in the most cataclysmic scenarios, scientists project Sea level to rise 2m by 2100, and most of Florida is above that level. https://climate.mit.edu/ask-mit/what-are-best-and-worst-case...
>Since when did direct democracy became a right wing concept? It's intended to make Parliament powerless (when you read the document, I'm sure you saw that part), so, I'd say it became a right wing concept when it was…
This is a very obviously biased argument that both sides make about themselves. The AfD literally published a manifesto of new and notably more conservative policy goals in 2017. They do not claim to have the political…
I think being thoughtful and baseline positive about the way we predict the future in popular media is a good idea. Nihilism isn't good in and of itself, so I'm not sure what you're arguing society would lose if we…
And isn't that the great lesson of AI? The things we say actually do matter and the post-modern descent into absurdity and nihilism has negative consequences?
Do you make the claim that AI is something more than a reflection of its training data? I'm curious what other things you would argue influences an LLM's behavior. I am also generally one to trust the claims of the…
Just a reminder that AI models' actions are reflections of the text humans write and the more we fret and make up doomsday scenarios that we then post online, the more likely a model is to do those things.…
I think a lot of us HN-types are people who like to post riddles like this instead of news about what actually happened.
>Why would you? Because the fundamental building block of society (which we are losing rapidly) is some amount of care for your fellow person. Your comment is a great example of how we Prisoner's Dilemma'ed ourselves…
It is an extremely weak argument to just post the links. Please supply actual instances of the supposed bias.
Explain to me how 'learning on the fly' is different than iterative self-prompting. Maybe me today would say you need to do some more research and thinking on how LLMs work?
We invented a word for a very specific thing (consciousness) and are now debating whether that relatively unimportant word represents a large open set or a narrow closed set. We do one thing in our bodies with…
Implying that software is somehow divorce from Infrastructure/compute efficiency and utilization isn't a claim I've seen many make either.
Yeah, it's almost like the point I was making is that everyone is overselling AI agents' capabilities.
Isn't the whole selling point of AI agents that you now can do things like scale 3x without scaling your team accordingly?
Well, then we get into the area of 'How many people know Google is logging their searches to serve them more targeted YouTube ads?'
Why would a career bureaucrat be a more efficient way to figure out how to attract and retain ATC workers, ass opposed to a union representing those ATC workers? Your proposal intentionally injects inefficiency and…
It's like that FT chart claiming that the rapid rise in iOS apps is evidence of an AI-fueled productivity boom. I always ask people, in the past year, how many AI-coded apps have you 1) downloaded 2) paid for?
Sure and AGI will 100% it 100% of the time, even if it is hard.
Sorry, is your definition of AGI "doing things worse than humans can do, but way faster?" because that's been true of computers for a long time.
Here's the score for new AIME's, where we know the answers aren't in training. https://matharena.ai/?view=problem&comp=aime--aime_2026 As for MMLU, is your assertion that these AI labs are not correcting for errors in…
