I don't know about "freaking out", but I'd say I'm having a good time here with DS 4.1 flash.

Have agents play the game 1000s of times and distil the gameplay itself into a new game.

Lmao what's got them so tired? Too many brunch dates?

Is having tunnels in their own territory a problem?

AI is in its 1999 JLO If You Had My Love phase.

Though if 2010, the year that Lost in the World was released, is your marker of an awful era, then I suspect that when generative ai does get used to create real art you will likely not be a fan of that either.

That used to be true of autotune too. It was either tastefully hidden, or obvious and trashy. Then projects like 808s and Heartbreak and Tha Carter III put it front and center and it's been a legitimate tool ever since.

I didn't know if generative ai has a strong enough signature to go through the same evolution, but I wouldn't be shocked if it did.

A tale as old as time. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/uw-booklet-student-added/

Spoken like someone who's dinosaurs have never been to the moon.

If, after 75 years of trying to sell cars, people _still_ would prefer a faster horse, then Henry Ford would have been just as wrong.

"they just don't know what they actually need"

Classic butt-guy response.

> Because they study architecture.

If the architecture they're studying is divorced from the preferences and needs of the uneducated masses then who cares? They may as well be studying their own butts.

No, but I would a computer.

> true optimal

True optimal what? Optimal intelligence? What would that be?

If a self improving model can't produce enough value to pay the electric bill then who cares? Unplug it.

Obviously I'm going to keep the box, but the real question is how many hundreds of NEMA C13 cables should I keep?

> AI can't be allowed to be a decision maker of any kind in healthcare.

It will, except it will be snuck in through the back door. It won't be some kind of robo-doctor making care decisions, it will come in the form of insurance eligibility steering the approved care plans, which absolutely will be decided by AI. The doctors will remain to act as liability sinks, but functionally they will probably join the ranks of the meat proxies.

Not really excited for a $500 toothbrush, but this should have an awesome impact on the rest of the market.

Putting the word "camera" in the name seems pretty dumb, but who knows? Maybe I'm the dumb one.

I don't understand. Does the metaphor "load-bearing assumption" not actually mean anything to you?

Why are people getting so hung up on the "load-bearing assumption" turn of phrase that Claude uses? I get that it becomes cliche, but it is also a rather semantically dense way to communicate an idea that a lot of people run into.

Easily yes. Developing an open source project is a free time activity. I can easily think of a year's worth of projects I'd rather do in my free time than write website copy.

> But, this is the kind of information I'm worried about when a vendor sells my data. If Google wanted to sell a product to the airlines that offered to keep annoying people like me from purchasing flights

How can I help them accomplish this goal?

String theory is a great example of a dead end kept alive by ego and sunk cost fallacy. An AI would have declared it dead and moved on 10 years earlier.

> we passengers are trying our best

100% disagree.

Was it serving oreja de cerdo?

The author's definition of a "Disability Dongle" perfectly describes the early versions of motorized wheelchairs. Why is it such an obvious conclusion that we need remake the world to be compatible with the previous generation of disability dongle instead of building the next? At the very least, couldn't we do both?

I think about that every time I walk into a bank with an elaborate building or a ton of staff hanging around.

The quality of your local nerd has also likely decreased substantially. Being a nerd used to be a lot more work. Now, if you're having a face-to-face interaction with a local aficionado there's a high chance you're just interacting with a walking TTS version of Reddit.

It's totally worth doing. Especially since it only takes one or two manual improvements before you can just say "ok, replicate this new pattern throughout the codebase. Go."

The idea that we might already have an optimal system but that it requires the sacrifice of feeling mild discomfort for a day or two is unfathomable for some people.

Which one to make permanent gets you a different answer based on what edge of a time zone you're on. The obvious move is to further subdivide the timezones at the :30 mark and make one half permanent standard and the other half standard -0:30
