igleria··on On the Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize Problem
to my knowledge the mathematicians did not have ZDR so it would be incorrect to assume OAI violated such a thing.

I'm suggesting audits, not suing... if that is the implication.

If I was a company with a zero data retention contract involving OAI I would be asking for a third party audit of such claim of zero retention like, yesterday.

> (the goal here was not to scoop any particular individuals and we were looking at many problems beyond these)

That is your opinion, but the optics of that should raise for you some flags. OAI could have waited (how long is a task left to the ethics committee) to see how the rumors panned out. Right now the optics look a lot like "we don´t care there is a 1/7 chance we one-up a human researcher by reacting to this rumor immediately, might makes right"

igleria··on On the Navier–Stokes Millennium Prize Problem
Interesting that they quote the mathematician directly: “there is nothing you can do, I simply do not trust you”

but then they proceed to NOT quote themselves themselves verbatim: "I deeply apologize for this extremely poor choice of words, it is the opposite of what I was trying to convey."

I´m waiting on the other side version, because I know there is no justifiable way to talk to a person like they did.

Sociopathic behaviour.

igleria··on We built our house for LAN parties (2024)
yatch can get into international waters so anything goes? So in my mind if someone owns a yatch they are into weird an illegal stuff 99% of the time.
igleria··on We built our house for LAN parties (2024)
Everything is high tech except for the cat litter collection, which tells me the owner already knows cats don't like automated litter collection. I wonder how hard is to keep the house clean tho!
igleria··on An Alien Mind
I think I disagree! You can always manipulate a human. It's true tho that this particular example has a myriad of failsafes, so the actual example I wrote is less than interesting.
igleria··on An Alien Mind
I can think of several computer programs that are stored in big 5.1/4 floppy discs that could end humanity in... half an hour.

>For flying cars for everyone

thanks, but no. There is a trivial reason this needs to stay in "The Jetsons" territory.

igleria··on An Alien Mind
toy example but spending 1.50 in openrouter to create a 23KB APK that can trigger my cat feeder without all the bloat is something that I would not have been arsed to code ever.

And you can check my comments, I'm no AI shill. If in 3 years we don't see positive change I'll go myself and put a wet finger in altmans ears.

igleria··on OpenAI begins rolling out GPT-6 Astra
From the launch post, it seems like part of the training set only recently became all those examples of people that are being paid for doing their profession for ai training.
igleria··on Disruption with Some GitHub Services
must feel bad that at this point every dev checks github status before going to work like it was the weather app.
igleria··on Linux 7.2
hi audience, we know about this stuff you use on a daily basis, you may be interested in our executive summary of the latest release of the stuff
igleria··on GIMP Development Update
I love that GIMP exists but... I have to say, it never got rid of the "backend developer doing frontend" feeling, and I've been aware of Gimp for 20 years now (did not know how to...ehem, run photoshop in my teens)
igleria··on Hello, me. It's been a while
My non expert and personal opinion is that multitasking for a long time is not a free lunch and could lead to burnout for most people
igleria··on Worms: The Future of Yesterday's Worms Today
To be fair a few months later in 2002 I got to see a second cousin playing gta 3 on pc. That really sent my 11 year old brain spinning.

not even finally buying my own home with my wife this year gave me the such a thrill, perhaps because it was very grueling and we still are waiting for some repairs to move in.

igleria··on Beef and dairy drive 41% of biodiversity damage linked to global farmland
> Even on a site like HN, where rational and logical thinking is held in high esteem

That is until people are faced with stuff like this :D. Then emotions take over.

igleria··on Worms: The Future of Yesterday's Worms Today
I remember being 10 and getting worms world party. I really was convinced that was going to be the best game I'd play for the rest of my life. Ahhh the nostalgia...
igleria··on LinkedIn CringeBot 3000
The daily puzzle games have more worth than the average linkedin post.
igleria··on Scientists discover Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability on the surface of the Sun
kinda a bummer that it somewhat looks like it does have a camera for the untrained eye. Defeats the whole purpose of "be X but also make it obvious it's X"
igleria··on São Paulo resident transforms degraded area into urban forest
> He believed that if he planted native species, the soil would recognize them and vice versa, quite like something etched in memory.

why does reading this feel so good?

igleria··on I won't read LLM authored fiction
With AI music you can enjoy a thin red paste of every human emotion /sarcasm
igleria··on Gemini Robotics 2 brings whole body intelligence to robots
> if you grow a bear genetically modified in a way that it has no consciousness or thought, it'll make a much better construction worker than any humanoid robot

I was lacking material for my nightmares, thanks.

igleria··on UEFA and its national associations will not participate in FIFA competitions
I don't know one single non american who enjoyed that ludicrous display of a half time show. And don't get me started on mr scientology giving a stupid speech. oh my god.
igleria··on Truth is not a direction: a Tarski attack on LLM probes
If you are asking my opinion, all models are just equally barf inducing to me. It's just that grok also gives me the runs.
igleria··on A.I. companies are recruiting electricians and carpenters by the thousands
It was a pain in my butt trying to find an electrician that would do my house rewire. thanks, AI.
igleria··on Truth is not a direction: a Tarski attack on LLM probes
> people delegating final authority on the truth to an AI

I can't avoid looking down on this attitude. But speaks more about people than it speaks about AI: those people want to win an argument, nothing more and nothing else

> There are already organizations taking advantage of this, actively producing "AI propaganda", meaning propaganda aimed at the LLMs themselves in order to influence their understanding of what is truthful and bend it towards powerful actors' agendas. They're not even hiding the fact that they're doing this.

namely grok.

a mistake that might be caused by the fact no one cares. an avoidable mistake.
