If we can solve 99% of the world's problems with current non-AGI models then nobody besides a select few will care about AGI
I would call them market economies instead of socialist governments
Why can't you just publish the prompt instead? Do you not see how LLMs subtly alter your original message and erase your voice? They fill gaps that didn't exist, they create syllogisms that make no sense, and the voice…
Do the research yourself, the old fashioned way? Search things, write them down, summarize? The problem with LLMs outputting English is that they're very good at bullshit and it can be really hard to see through the…
Why not just write it yourself? We can all have ChatGPT regurgitate the same information. You're supposed to add value, editorializing isn't enough. Just like I don't want to look at AI art or listen to AI music, I…
Java?
A heat pump is not necessarily dug into the earth. Rather, the flow of the heat pump is moving heat (thermal energy) from outdoors to indoors or the other way around in an air conditioner. Depending on the direction of…
Depends what you make it from. If you distill eight litres of wine into about a litre brandy without removing methanol, it has the same amount of methanol than eight litres of wine did. Given the average of 150mg/l of…
It is a good reminder that most of us that work in software engineering will never build anything remarkable and will fade into history. Even if you do brilliant engineering work for a company, said work was…
I am also glad the commercial niche illustration markets like Magic the Gathering are extremely hostile to AI art, though of course I would think Wizards of the Coast, the company that publishes MTG, probably see…
Makes sense, though, doesn't it? An elephant's trunk is the fusion of its nose and upper lip, wouldn't that be the location where the mystacial vibrissae (whiskers) be located on any other mammal, making these…
I loved There is no Antimemetics division. I haven't read the new updated to the end but the prose and writing is greatly improved. The idea of anomalous anti-memes is scary. I mean, we do have examples of them,…
Now it is. In the late 90s/early 00s it wasn’t. MS is quite different today from what it was back then.
Never been more scared in my life when I drove through narrow country roads in Ireland
Could you elaborate on the subject of the foundations of a curriculum (of what?) being entirely fake? That's a bold statement to make!
Refers to corporate personhood. You can't jail Apple Inc.
Alex, the bird mentioned in the article, is also the first animal ever to have asked a question. When shown its reflection in a mirror, it asked what color it was. We've trained chimps and gorillas for decades and they…
Depends on the niche. Original physical art for trading card games or comics is a significant chunk of the income of your typical artist. Digital art in those niches does not have this source of income. But then again…
Indeed, as a kid of 10, I remember learning C/C++ thanks to DJGPP, a DOS port of GCC, being free software. I didn't have any money to buy a commercial compiler, though I never asked my parents. I wasn't sure how to…
Your sentence makes it sound like Yeniseian languages are language isolates, but what is absolutely astounding is that Yeniseian languages seem to form a family with the Na-Dene languages of North America. Two language…
Battery cell production alone is massively expensive. The expenses in setting up a production line is counted in the billions. So the only way to start fresh here is to raise billions in capital. Unless you're…
GNU Emacs is not the first Emacs, but Lucid Emacs is a fork of GNU Emacs. Lucid Emacs eventually renamed itself as XEmacs (the "X" meaning "something" because they didn't know who owns the trademark as Lucid Inc went…
I have been using Send to kindle[1] for years to upload epubs directly to Kindle. It even syncs the position in the books so that if I read it on my Kindle, it syncs the position to the Kindle app on my phone. [1]…

Is the third movie supposed to be Elysium?
