qualudeheart··on Ask HN: Future encryption issues mean more lofi techniques make sense again?
Let’s think about Lofi approaches to food. The equivalent of broken cryptography is automation induced unemployment.

If we work the land by ourselves, machines can’t work it for us.

The only laws are scaling laws.
qualudeheart··on Palm-E: An Embodied Multimodal Language Model
I could do it with genetic algorithms and scalage.
qualudeheart··on Palm-E: An Embodied Multimodal Language Model
That’s a good thing. While it can train a new model to obliterate your old job much faster than you can go back to grad school, they mercifully do not do so.
qualudeheart··on Palm-E: An Embodied Multimodal Language Model
I always see Dreyfus stans claim that embodiment is needed for AGI. My big mainframe based god model will refute them by existing.

“And can we really afford another in-house ML Ph.D. after we just dropped $1.5M on DV 32K?“

Here we see automation negatively impact the job market for elite talent. Deepmind can train a new model faster than you can go back to grad school.

qualudeheart··on Ask HN: Is hardware engineering more stressful since bugs are not allowed?
Yes.
