Each room is lived in by a few people, each building has an exterior which is looked at by thousands or millions. I live in a hundred-year old house (old for the region I’m in), with rabbit warren hallways. I wouldn’t…

Watches? Jewelry? Monogrammed clothes? Custom-printed shoes and t-shirts? Lots of examples, and of course it affects resale. Apple was clearly thinking outside the category of “consumer electronics.”
Take a hard look at the people who are super into this stuff. Ignore the people who have a direct financial interest in it. Look at the people who are left, who are truly enthusiastic about AI-generated music as users.…
Peak so far. Maybe there’s a hype singularity where the hype is so strong that nothing can escape.
Do it twice to be sure
I suppose a 1 key piano can have unlimited notes, at least until the key wears out.
Some subjects are hard. Music notation is mathematical notation that is optimized for ease of consumption by notation experts. It is not optimized for learning. Same with many activities. Pedagogy and real-world use are…
Insurance and HMO CEOs salaries come from somewhere, and it’s not malpractice judgments.
Funny, my opinion is the opposite. Excel is a much better spreadsheet than Word is a word processor or than PowerPoint is a presentation tool. Of course it’s got quirks and unfortunate relics of its long history, but I…
Are you sure? I mean, yes of course tiny sample windows have this effect. But it seems at least possible that LLM is more prone to this effect when making estimates of human performance or behavior than when doing it…
There is such a thing as lack of bias in statistical outcomes, right? E.g. fair dice? Measuring it may be probabilistic, but it exists. What I'd like to see is if the LLM would exhibit the same behavior wrt other types…

I knew before I opened this comment section that it would trigger a bunch of reactions, all because of the word “bias.” Please just go read the abstract; your first reactions to the headline may not be relevant.
I think the paper is about bias formation, not reflecting existing bias. If the formed bias was against HN usernames that started with “r,” would it still seem daft?
I was baffled by this because the rightmost square didn’t seem to have any pieces where the letter would fit vertically — the unplaced pieces had a border which made it impossible to see which might.
At home? 100%. Out in the world? Very much depends. I was just in a stall where the inside of door had a pictogram forbidding users from standing on the edge of the bowl and squatting. I assume this might be for…
I read through those links (ha) and I agree, they knew the overall story was interesting to players, but intentionally elevated story over continuity. That was my original point. The same debates happen about early…
Here’s how I think it makes sense: accountability for unethical behavior arrives via more or less direct routes depending on who you are. The more you look like a high-status leader, the longer it will take, and the…
Being in favor of right-to-repair is generally popular on HN, for obvious reasons.
I don’t seem much point to intentionally curating a set of skills, and specifically invoking them by name, only to watch the ai skip them all and do better by just reading code and internal/external websites.
Sometimes? I’m no expert, but I’m pretty sure these games were generally not built with a hefty bible full of inviolable lore. Plot and continuity errors are common enough to show that. Some people are very invested in…
Alas, mine is far too visible. But I will spare you the associated downvote.
If you don’t know how to do that now, the fastest way to learn (for most people, surely) is to have an LLM teach you and critique your efforts. And then you’ll realize that it’s unlikely you’ll get practice at doing it…
