Kind of a genius move to name it 'America' from the get go.

Being able to zoom on mobile at all would be great. And a way to close all of the overlay panels!

"What's a paperclip?"

- Kids today, probably

Yeah — but JavaScript... :D

GPT-2 was called "too dangerous to release".

You're absolutely right—it's been a load-bearing LLM tell for a while now.

Nice write up! Felt like a Nile Blue/Red experiment.

Turing Patterns, maybe? I wish more people knew about them, they're so cool!

Hey, that's unfair. I'm working through the backlog as fast as I can!

Blame I.T. - they keep resetting my password and I'm not allowed to write it down on a Post-It like back in the old days...

Something about the look of quantum computers takes me right back to the ENIAC.

At the rate this field is accelerating maybe this IS staggering

They were made entirely of meat.

We are nothing, if not needlessly complex!

Excellent work as always, Kojima

They're saving a memory so this can't happen again.

It's a fascinating emergent behaviour but also one that could have been predicted?

I'd imagine that our brains have become similarly biased towards generating such a generalised symbolic structure over hundreds of millions of years of evolution?

I'm thinking how certain regions of the brain reliably represent things like motor skills, speech, abstract thought.

Back in school I learned the acronym:

My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming Planets

And it was so convenient! Does anyone know a good alternate now that the P is gone?

[AI drug discovery] was never the hard part.

The human-written section threw me off. I don't know how to process humanslop anymore!

Product-wise... maybe. I'm also seeing a lot of genuine attempts to reinvent programming around some form of new agentic paradigms.

But at the core science/tech of AI it's probably the most amount of innovation I've ever witnessed in a field. The pace of new developments is staggering.

I remain to this day shocked at how good the Grok speech-to-text functionality is.

The conversation mode in the app is pretty buggy, but the microphone button is a godsend.

I believe in you

How will this handle face masks? Hijabs or Niqabs?

Can't these genius AI companies spend a few pennies to develop a non-destructive book scanner?

What's the use of all this AI if they can't figure out this relatively simple task.

I'm not sure the vast majority of office tasks require much creativity at all.

True creativity is the preserve of our finest creatives at their very best. And it's hard to catch lightning in a bottle and summon it on demand.

You know, ever since em-dashes blew up due to their use as LLMs detectors I've been using them more and more in my writing. They're great!

Hell of an opening on this blog post. Solid write up! Glad honeypots like this exist.

It might be the term "financial gravity" I've seen used sometimes. That makes sense in this context.

However Noble Rot is delightful:

I've done this quite a lot while working at a large architecture firm. It can be great for both small and enormous projects.

Often, the more effort you put into the tiniest details, textures, etc the larger the realism payoff.

I also found that immersion got better when the headset responded to the subtle head movements that we all make.

I watched a Waymo try to take this on last night. It drove on the left.
