The analogy to MLM doesn’t work. In a pyramid scheme, early investors are guaranteed money, whereas late investors are guaranteed losses. With a vibe-coding platform, everyone has the same (extremely low) odds of…
Aren't they serving the same thing? Proactively and reactively keeping you healthy requires understanding your body, both the baseline of how it functions when you're healthy, and how it functions when you're not. Right…
London property is expensive, but £180k is a lot more than the "minimum". I am on half that, and I managed to buy.
Let the market decide what, though? What the market cares about may be different from what you care about, if the average investor has a higher tolerance for risk that you do. For pension funds, long term stability is…
I mouse right-handed because it’s convenient, but I still naturally default to doing any novel task left-handed. It’s not a matter of fine motor skills, you can learn to do anything with either hand if you decide to,…
Human communication and reasoning is the end result of billions of years of evolution. I'd be very surprised if LLMs can fundamentally alter it in a few years. When considering phenomenon like these, I think people…
The comment said "Claude Code also found one thousand false positive bugs, which developers spent three months to rule out.". Please explain how a bug can both be unvalidated, and also have undergone a three month…
I’m not with I could ever migrate away from Gmail, even if I wanted to. I have so many accounts and services linked to it.
Are you suggesting that authors didn't know or understand that commercial exploitation of their OSS contributions was possible? If so, that is a complete misrepresentation of history. There has always been open-source…
That review is a year old. Just maybe it’s improved since then?
The nearest "absolutely fucked" pub to me hasn't existed since 2008. I'd say they have bigger problems than a rates increase.
What I'm suggesting is: what if AIs get so good at crafting vulnerable (but apparently innocent) code than human review cannot reliably catch them? And saying "ones that get less attention will continue to get less…
I wonder if we're going to end up in an arms race between AIs masquerading as contributors (and security researchers) trying to introduce vulnerabilities into popular libraries, and AIs trying to detect and fix them.
So I do think we're in a bubble, but I also remember when all the discussion around here was around Uber, and I read many, many hot takes about how they were vastly unprofitable, had no real business model, could never…
> Nakamura responded to Kramnik’s allegations by arguing that focusing on a particular streak while ignoring other games was cherry-picking. The researchers note that there’s a problem with this argument, too, as it…
Perhaps, but Hank Green published a pretty convincing argument recently that electricity supply has nowhere the necessary elasticity, and the politicised nature of power generation in the US means that isn't going to…
Won’t this be solved fairly soon when package managers have automatic scanning of updates by AIs that are superhumanly good at spotting malicious code?
I've noticed the same when looking at old Georgian and Victorian maps of London. You get these surprisingly sharp edges between urban and rural. You often have streets lined with quite grand buildings and nothing but…
Ironic, Western politicians thought opening up to trade with China would lead to it adopting a Western model of government. Instead it's lead to the USA adopting the Chinese one.
DeepMind was founded and is still headquartered in London.
The article says that LLMs don't summarize, only shorten, because... "A true summary, the kind a human makes, requires outside context and reference points. Shortening just reworks the information already in the text."…
There are versions of both these charts with more plausible numbers and bar sizes in the "evaluation" section of the announcement post: https://openai.com/index/introducing-gpt-5/ So, maybe this is just sloppiness and…
I don't understand why consciousness is considered mysterious anymore. We know intelligent systems broadly work by learning, updating and querying a predictive world model. For accuracy, a sufficiently powerful system…
