Agent ability is far outpacing alignment though

I've been a long-time indie gamer and the appeal of older games has increased significantly for me since AI. Nearly an endless supply of top-notch human-crafted classic video games exist, virtually all for free or very cheap. I understand not everyone has the same taste as me but if they did I'd be surprised of there still was a modern gaming industry at all.

A good heuristic is to understand the generated code you submit as if you typed every character yourself. A "I'm not sure, AI wrote it" type circumstance is a critical failure.

Idiocracy seems like the most likely sci-fi outcome.

More like don’t be the thing all the models are trained on.

If you present the text in an image / GIF format it could be useful.

> most likely to be correct and sensible.

No, you mean “the non-deterministic transformation this time based on my training weights and temperature setting”

You still have to think about significant figures with calculators I used. Most will produce an irrational number result with as many insignificant digits that will fit on the display.

I've found regarding nuances I discover in language learning it will really fail me. It will tell me the incorrect path, I correct it, it apologizes, then just to see I tell it that latest one was incorrect actually, it apologizes and I can put it in an endless loop of getting it to apologize as I correct it into the opposite of something over and over.

Maybe we need some kind of worldwide negative event first. In Star Trek lore, World War 3 starts this year (2026). Like with World War 2, perhaps it’s needed to calibrate the zeitgeist to a spot where a prosperous era can follow /shrug

He left a caveat for you if you read it

Care to elaborate? Just taking the impact of data centers on locals is enough to validate his point. (Noise pollution, heat pollution and emissions from on-site gas turbines)

It was a great game. I also play it on emulator now and then. I love the little fight to be the next on the ski lift after every lap.

If they don't it would be a relatively easy browser plugin to make.

Also toggle-able with a very visible and accessible widget that remembers your choice.

I wonder what other alternative search engines Google lost to besides DDG.

Everything is fundamentally energy. If you hate something you're just hating energy.

They have. Even during the congressional hearings on the subject they were talking about and referencing many already fully debunked UAP sighting footage

People play video games for many different reasons. As someone who plays them to experience human craftsmanship and creativity (some call it art), I'm not at all interested in playing a game created with AI. People are free to see it differently, but I'm sure I'm not alone.

I guess the logistics of prescribing an entire population of anything is expensive, and overkill when people can supplement it in pills or diet, or just go outside more.

My impression was experienced Perl programmers took pride in making the smallest code possible, all in one line.

At my company they really locked in the project being dead if the original contributors left.

Perl propped up regex (JavaScript regex is based off of it), so I get the impression Perl practitioners tried to make all the code regex-y as possible as a cultural thing.

I learned React before hooks. Came from a mostly forgotten framework called ExtJS that used base JavaScript classes, so it was an easy transition.

Class based React is great. My old projects are cleanly structured, but harder to change. Class based React also lacks the composability you get with hooks.

Pascal’s wager applied to tech cycles. The fervent adherence to the hype is akin to religious zealots in many ways

Yes, this post ironically makes me more bearish

Training models on so much AI-generated content will certainly lead to diminishing quality.

Yes. The strength of the dollar is based on stability

Almost all phone apps could be a web app

Really? Very hot take. Can you link one AI song that has moderate popularity that they might be shuffling people to?

Stock market is too illogical. Seems like a dip buy opportunity every time.

I bet companies even buyback after these dips.
