AI hits a "I'm Spartacus, and everybody else should be regulated" moment.

And tablets should have a "direct touch only, all options present mode" (no long-presses, no drags, no drags from edge, no swipes." It would really improve accessibility.

Unfortunately not. Most of my sampling ideas were too slow and not effective at high degree.

Came to say the same thing. Now remains the time to give the public access to the ACM digital library.

I could not tell what parts the human author thought were phantasies they felt they had escaped versus which they really were wallowing in. Who honeypots the honeypots?

Why would they remain fundamentally expensive? It is a fixed machine (so eventually you recoup the investment) and running consumes nothing other than electricity and a paper gown. MRIs cost under $200 in Japan.

Thanks. I had some friends look. Half got it to work, half errored out.

My feeling on geometric algebra is that you should look too much into it until you exhaust the exterior algebra. That is (in my opinion): it isn't a good use of it to replace the cross product or specialized representations of 3-d geometric rotations. It is good for when you get a bit sick of the bookkeeping of the exterior algebra. From a computer scientist point of view it is sort of adding a bit of type information beyond just vector dimension and depth of product.

Thx, but looks like you are also getting downvoted. Sorry about that.

No point up-voting or down-voting this, already flagged off the site. Possibly triggered a controversy filter? I know the title is provocative, but it is actually the point the video is trying to establish (so it wasn't just ad-hominem).

Not quite on topic. But I feel there is an issue in politics where many non-wealthy people vote as if they are "temporarily inconvenienced billionaires." That is they endorse policies that favor billionaires, as they have some hope of being one someday.

The whole arc was brilliantly evil. Once they put int the guardrails then Claude is fully un-falsifiable, and failure can be claimed intentional.

I really think one needs a "Harvard architecture" for AIs (data independent of instructions). Though yes, that may not be possible.

I have to say worrying about the provenance of writing has made me a grumpier reader.

For example: "The space station is made up of Russian and US segments, and there are modules from the European and Japanese space agencies too." It feels like this sentence is inserting some points, but is lacking in authorial intent. Is the intent to say the station is largely Russian and US, or to say the station has more than two partners? Probably an okay sentence, but still feels like a stone in the shoe.

I honestly thought GoPro and FitBit had both been stomped out a long time ago, and we were just watching new companies brand-squatting.

HP generously gave me a 16C at the end of an internship. It was a weird beast! Amazing a simulating different types of integer arithmetic. Not at all a replacement for the 11C, 12C, or 15C.

Good point on "Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect."

I think this is a good under-represented point. Again and again things that could only run on a mainframe get ported to the personal device level. However it looks like the campaign to eliminate the PC (by pre-buying all RAM) is the counter-stroke.

This is important to think through, does one have a product, tech, tool, or even just a feature. I given thing is not necessarily at the bottom of this stack, but also not always at the top.

A perfect doomsday machine. Over-using tokens gets your peers laid-off before yourself.

I know it is a video and the title is a note. But the video is plausibly claiming Github recently opted private repositories into being AI training material. And there are indeed some settings around that (though it is hard to know if one has found all such controls).

Good thing that didn't require two weeks, as that is about 14 attention spans.

Like go pieces being deliberately too large for the board they are used on.

My only issue is the title. It appears they are building a replacement for GitHub of which a replacement for Git is just a component. Building a replacement for GitHub is going to need at least the sort of funding they are mentioning. So once one reads the article it makes a bit more sense.

Very much agree. In fact I don't remember Vista or UAC being as unreliable as the Mac now is.

Love your point. Instructions found to be good by trial and error for one LLM may not be good for another LLM.

And BrowserStack either doesn't know this or knows this and isn't telling. Still bad, in my opinion.

I like this sort of study- but it really misses the point to not give more credit for some of the observations and designs to Codd and others.

I encourage Dyson sphere enthusiasts to listen to the interesting argument that Dyson spheres they may be deliberately designed as an "sounds neat but is impossible" filter joke, ref: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLzEX1TPBFM .

Telling it to "challenge your beliefs" prompting for text that imitates challenging your beliefs. That may not be as re-centering as one would hope.
