It's a funny thing, because the inverse is falsifiable (testable) whereas the positive version is not. The inverse proof (I would say a hypothesis) is simply application of the scientific method. There is a way to disprove that the st

It's not proof by inexistence, it's simply application of the scientific method--only the most successful method to date. It seems like your assumptions are unfalsifiable. As computer scientists , I believe it's important t

Maybe. But in the list of lucrative applications I think bug-fixing is near the top. I think it's lucrative enough to attract at least a decent chunk of engineering talent.

I don't think it's necessarily self-incrimination to report a crime you witnessed, though I think it's dependent based on the time from when it occurred to the time of reporting.

You're technically right (I think). However, I believe if you witness a murder and know the murderer and the police asks you: "Do you know anything about X murder?" Then I think you're legally required to tell the trut

Because those services don't get shown reports of CSAM and then turn a blind eye to it and do nothing about it. A person witnessing a crime by itself is not a crime. However, a person witnessing a crime and choosing not to report it i

Then it should be trivial to point out the error. So do it.

Alright, fine. Maybe you don't have faith in management, but perhaps you do have faith in the open market and capitalism. Feel free to point out any error in my logic: There are huge financial incentives--tens if not hundreds of billi

I think we're at an epistemic impasse here. At what point would/could you be convinced that LLMs are incapable or unsuited here? If LLMs were successfully deployed in a production environment is the day I bite my tongue. What a

I take issue with this. Typically issues arise because they are novel and are unforeseen. If we did see these issues beforehand they'd be fixed! LLMs by definition are trained by example, so I fail to see how finetuning LLMs on thing

To be honest, I give very little if any credence to anything she's said, especially if it's unsupported by evidence. Notice I'm not relying on anything she's said. Even if she is mentally ill, it's not reasonable

I'm surprised more developers haven't adopted remote development. It's fairly simple to setup an SSH server on your computer and DDNS on many routers. It comes with the added benefit that everything I need is accessible on a

There is a disappointing amount of character slander rather than refutation of the author's claims happening on this thread. The foremost trustworthy party is the EPA. Note, I am not a lawyer or anyone who could professionally give an

Slightly off topic, but this is demonstrated in a show called Mr. Robot. I find it insanely cool that the hacking in Mr. Robot closely resembles real life.
