Undiscovered potential that will bring a new revenue stream, shooting our margins to the sky, growth forever, etc. etc That's all of it, and as long as you trust he's worked out the details, the trick works. If you sit down and st

They'll never do a live demo of this. So expect a pusher on stage, and pre-made videos.

It's possible. Donations don't have to be public. We live in a world where it pays back to be liked, so people imitate it superficially, often with ulterior motives. Steve Jobs is popularly known as a "stingy jerk" but a

You're telling me what I think, which I didn't say, you're telling me how I'd respond, which I didn't. You're giving opinions on those responses you made up, and speculating how the discussion would further go.

You didn’t make any specific claims, you didn’t correct or object to any claims I made either. You just keep calling me uninformed and wrong without supporting your thesis with anything. You’re a perfect zero.

I said the selective pressure on every one of us is for intelligence. This is not only genetic but cultural. Does it result literally in a bigger brain is beyond the scope of a simple HackerNews comment. But a bigger brain would absolutely

You said "got it" but your response clearly suggests otherwise. I have no conclusions about how the particular study was concluded and what exactly it found (although there have been many studies and throughout history we've

You started very well listing two theories. Where you went wrong is being immediately sure one is wrong and one is right (maybe both are wrong or both are right), being sure which is right, and excluding the possibility for more explanation

You can measure changes from one gen to next. Selection occurs with EVERY generation. Small or big depends on the selection.

It's not healthier, but that's the selective pressure, and if AI doesn't cause some catastrophic shift in society where we become its mindless appendages, the trend will continue. Evolution is almost never graceful. You gain

That's not at all how our lifecycle works. We grow up young, inexperienced, eager to learn, eager to try things and fail, our metabolism is much higher than needed, in order to compensate for this frantic phase of our lives. Then as we

Cells die before they turn to cancer. Same with the individual. We have limited useful lifespan. Above that we’re a burden on society.

Precisely. Our legal system has two issues. First, the definitions are imprecise, non-objective and tethered to historical meaning that is no longer relevant. And second, law you can't enforce is nothing at all, even if defined perfect

Good because GPT was a terrible brand. I don’t mean as in “oh no they use a term”. I mean as in its a very obscure term for most. There are way better names to come up with. And “GPTs” is even worse as a way to express “customizable prompts

Thanks for the clarification, but even if that's what people want , then CloudFlare should ask them if they want it or not, at the very least allow them to opt out of it. According to OP's story it seems there's no (obvious)

You don't link without .html then you won't break anything. That's what the author is saying. In general trying random URLs and them accidentally working and then not working, despite you weren't linked from somewhere is

I didn't realize CloudFlare would forcefully start redesigning your URLs to their taste. This is absolute nonsense, I can't believe they do that. Really poor choice.

Text will be an important input channel for texture, sound type, voice type and so on. You can't just use input audio, that defeats the point of generating something new. You can't also only use MIDI, it still needs to know what s

Well the metadiscussion upends the whole discussion. Microsoft should've wrapped up their HoloLens research and offered a nice low-volume product for researches, engineers, and designers. We need such products, and it's a shame th

As I hinted, for an app that wants to be an "accelerant to the everything app" (Musks's words) we're sitting incredibly still yet. A major feature would be anything that the Chinese WeChat has, which inspired Musk for hi
