   I have no idea if I have aphantasia or not but the comparison between sound is interesting I can very clearly imagine sound or music in my head. My visual imagination is at like 20% of that and it's a struggle

   I highly recommend you read up on the actual research of what you're talking about. It points to the exact opposite of basically every sentence you wrote

    What's wrong with measuring and evaluating its outputs directly? If it can accurately file taxes better than us does it matter if it does it in a human manner? Birds and planes both fly and all

    Is there really no agreement to what intelligence refers to? I've seen it defined as the ability to reach a goal, which was clear to me. Eg. a chess AI with 1500 ELO is more intelligent than one at 1000

    This makes sense if we're trying to recreate a human mind artifically, but I don't think that's the goal? There's no reason an equivalent or superior general intelligence needs to be similar to us at all

    Preact adds, among other things.. 1. Potential compatibility issues. Their preact/compat package doesn't cover 100% of cases (of course it doesn't, otherwise it'd just be React) 2. Risk. Will this thing be maintained lon

    One of the currently active events is predicting something on the scale of the Great Depression I mean that's bad but it's much better than what I picture in my head as an apocalypse

    Agreed 1000%. And the rate ate which OpenAI is spitting out new product tests like this I think they know very well they're hitting the limits of what the underlying model can do

    Lenovo sells refurbished Thinkpads on eBay, yeah. I bought one at the start of the year for about 30% of MSRP and I couldn't tell it wasn't brand new If you're intent on getting a new one they still offer regular deals on the

    Well if they think AGI is soon with no evidence then that's not worth a whole lot If they think AGI is soon AND they can back it up, why can't they convince investors and have them make up the difference for the next 2-3 years? Se
