Promise to come back and update here if random bots start using it to communicate, you may be humanity's early warning system!

I shouldn't have to but /s

It would be fascinating if this were the method AI was using to watermark text.

>Any university using AI detection in their submission pipeline, or lawyers, editorialists, proofreaders that check for AI marks will be sending significant amounts of text like unpublished research, books, potentially internal documents and more, most of which is high quality human written, to dozens of AI companies, blindly trusting they won't train on any of that.

Uh, yeah, why do you think it's setup this way? The frontier companies desperately desire more high quality human text and this is how they are planning to get it for free.

It will offer this company and those similar to it the ability to increase shareholder value by selling amalgamated information to law enforcement.

I don't mean to offend, but entrusting every input to a company literally called MITM LLC has a level of absurdity that either greatly entertains or else greatly frightens me.

> led someone to believe a 10 page PR is appropriate to begin with.

Agreed, a 10 page PR is not on. But the original article, though evidently touched up, was appropriate in length and scope. What's your real criticism here?

There was a whole group of people who did this, apparently.

Apple is the King of Hardware Deprecations. Google is the King of Software Deprecations. You're both right.

"What do you mean, torment nexus? This is retail!"

Statists, I suppose.

You make a good point.

I'm skeptical though that 100% (or even more than 60%) of the workers in the DC offices are true specialists in agriculture vs. office workers who happen to do agricultural work. Certainly there's a set of institutional knowledge to be maintained. But the most committed specialists are going to be the ones who are willing to move to e.g. Ogden Utah, as the previous commenter mentioned. The slightly specialized office workers, being able to swap into some other role for ${BUREAUCRACY} are less likely to move and less likely to need to. There are people in Ogden and ${RURAL_CITY_[1-5]} who are able to do the support work needed.

However, as you say, the time scale is important and I did not really take that into account.

> all the current employees that don't want to move are fungible?

Honestly? Probably.

No one is really all that special.

> No individual holds power over connotations. Language just evolves.

Okay, but I still reserve the right to be pissed off at teenagers using 'out of pocket' when they mean 'off the wall' or 'out of bounds'.

>Convincing all of human history and psychology to reorganize itself in order to better service ai cannot possibly be a real solution.

I think there's a substantial subset of tech companies and honestly tech people who disagree. Not openly, but in the sense of 'the purpose of a system is what it does'.

It wasn't typical in 2008, I think, is the upshot.

If you are mapping the lines where each pixel has resistance and capacitance (presumably quite small values) could you add a new pixel type with editable resistance / capacitance and hide it behind a graphic of the schematic representation (i.e. the zigzag of a resistor like --\/\/\-- or capacitor like --|(-- ?

Your current algorithm would need to be able to accept a wider range of values but it seems like it would work from a math standpoint.
