There is also an assumption in the paper that the information would be released without the blackmail, and that blackmail is just a commercial-option to 'stop' the information release for the benefit of both parties. This is wrong

This paper seems to have too much 'whataboutism'. Sam says that we shouldn't exploit poisoned people by charging lots of money for an antitode, and the paper literally responds by calling him in favour of a 'fascist mode

Yep, or if you are working on a project to build a control system for a new factory which is going live in 18 months, it's pretty reasonable for your management team to want to know that you have confidence you can build the control sy

I think they mean it from a softer perspective - Scrum encourages more time ensuring all the team and tasks are clearly directed towards an outcome for that sprint. Just putting outcomes as cards on a kanban board will not have that same ef

Inability to complete certain tasks does not mean that the system is not intelligent. It’s possible for a system to be intelligent and also fail at these questions. IMO a system is intelligent if it can answer some questions that require in

Yes I agree - I really meant it doesn't directly learn from your interaction (i.e. it forgets you spoke as soon as you close the session, and only learns indirectly through the next training run - your words do not affect it's int

We can point to a handful of strange examples where GPT4 appears to be unsuccessful, but that ignores the buckets of examples where it knocks things out of the park. And the areas where it isn't successful appear to being closed quickl

Why not just buy a computer that is correctly-sized to play games, rather than buy an AI-sized computer that you mostly use for games?

It's more likely that you want a lot of compute for a very little amount of time each day - which makes centralised/cloud processing the most obvious answer. If I want a response within 100ms, and have 1000 AI-queries per day, tha

A computer could clearly emulate the neurons in the human brain right now if we could map the connections and their strengths accurately - the human brain has many less neurons than GPT4 has parameters.

Pretty easy to get API access, I got it within a few days. Aware this is a sample of one, but also can’t believe they fast tracked me.

You can overcome this with prompt engineering. “If a player tries to do something not strictly within the rules of <insert game>, then you must inform me that it is an invalid move and not accept it” GPT appears to be slightly tuned t

I think there are a few tricks I use to get correct code: 1) GPT4 is a must, the code quality is so much better than GPT3 2) You can use a longer explanation than you think. Be detailed in exactly what you want. Clearly describe function in

Considering it is a one-time payment, it would be nice if I could use my own API key. Although you call it a "no-tricks pricing" model, a 'one time lifetime license' for a product that I can't use the key feature of

It’s about what the word “buy” means though. If we are happy that you can buy services, I assume we are happy with Steam using “buy” to represent the purchase of the service and licensing offering they have?

It's not very different, both are under law, just one is under contract law . Of course you can own things that you can't sell anyway, you can own an extended warranty on your flatscreen television, or own non-transferrable bonds

I guess you can believe that, but that's a very narrow definition of "buy" and certinaly more narrow than both the dictionary definition and common usage. Under your definition you can't buy a ticket to a concert, or buy

What do you believe 'buy' means if it doesn't mean access to download the game and a digital licence to use it? Also is GameStop allowed to use the term 'buy' in their shops? Because they are often selling a licence

You can absolutely own things without being able to sell them. See pharmaceuticals as an obvious/trivial example - you can own prescription drugs without being able to sell/dispense them.

It's true, but if a murderer that donated to charity was imprisoned I would probably go with "a murderer imprisoned in France" rather than "a philanthropist imprisoned in France".

"An activist imprisoned in France" makes this sound like some sort of locked up protestor, rather than someone that set fire to a load of vehicles and a warehouse. It should really read "An arsonist imprisoned in France&quo

Well if you are buying something, of course the language can be "buy". And you do have ownership of the licence.
