While it's true that most people in the Netherlands speak English (at some level), it's really not true that Dutch people prefer to speak to each other in English when everyone present speaks Dutch.
The fun thing about climate change is that it is never really too late to make a difference, since every reduction in emitted CO2 results in less warming (even if not in a perfectly linear fashion due to various…
Just to be clear, studies also indicate that we will not realistically limit global heating to anything close to 1.5C, unless very drastic actions are taken immediately (actions on a level that would be seen as…
One of the criteria of the most often used definition of open source [0] is that the program is free to use and modify for all purposes. So a noncommercial license would not qualify as open source. This is also a…
A possible scenadio might be that one day the user wants to log in to their other fastmail account, which they don't want to be linked to their main one in any way.
Obviously if you don't care about software freedom, libreboot is not for you. That does not detract from the goals of the project.
But of those benefits you mention, most are not in contradiction with a walkable neighbourhood. In my home town, most things are in walking and biking distance and we still have good public schools, lots of parks and…
The (A)GPL licenses were designed for user freedom, not developer freedom. That indeed means that some companies might not want to use it, because they dont want to give their users access to the code. But for the…
I'm no expert in this field, but as I understand it they trained a new GPT model from scratch to play Othello. So the prompts were simply the transcript of moves that came before.
I tried it on the you.com chatbot, which has access to search results of your query. Even though it was already spoiled by receiving a link to this thread in which the correct answer is literally listed, it still…
Just because some of its answers are logically coherent due to it following statistical patterns, does not mean that the model is reasoning. Reasoning implies some type of discipline which prevents nonsensible arguments…
I think it's really problematic to use the word "reason" to describe what GPT does. As others have commented in this thread, GPT is a language model, which in no way reasons about anything it writes. It is simply…
I think the author means that count-words already existed, but only reported words and characters. Now it also reports the amount of sentences.
This question is clearly not relevant to the parent comment, since the linked tweet explicitly states that he would not ban this account as part of his commitment to free speech.
Why do you think GPT aced that? As far as I can tell from the code it sends in up to 10 guesses.
As far as I know, the algorithms used for these are in fact rule-based at this point, not neural networks. Which actually is not much better, since these systems are still propietary and black box. This is of course…
Even if something so absurd would happen, the version of the code from just before the change to a new license would still be available under the GPLv3. So everyone who wouldn't agree with this change (which would…
You keep asserting in this thread that most EU citizens want to get russian gas right now. This doesn't really correspond with what I perceive in my country or understand to be the case in the rest of the EU... Do you…
> That is the issue here: people want to be able to sell their cards to other players, and now you need to build a mechanism that supports that correctly without becoming riled in the customer support issues. I mean, if…
But that argument doesn't really work, since you can upload someone else's GPL'd code on GitHub. So, it's not really possible for a random person uploading old code to GitHub, to give them new rights that the original…
So someone gives an argument which involves less than 1/4 of the world population merely having to change their consumption patterns by eating less meat, but still you see a better solution in 'cutting our population'…
On Android, KOReader is able to do this (and free and open source). It can even reflow the text quite well so that it fits on a smaller display like a phone, if needed.
No it isn't of course, but that speaks for the argument that AGI is necessary for human-level translation :)
You're missing the point of the parent comment: GPT-3 can understand this idiom because it was trained on a corpus in which the context for this idiom already existed. If a new idiom would emerge, the system would not…
I think the defeatist stance of 'it will go to China anyways is quite harmful. We should at least try to legislate useful things and enforce them for the common good. Besides, if companies want to avoid the legislation,…
