It's a really shitty job by Google PR people. Who in their right mind would close product in response to a security vulnerability? It was bound to grow out of proportions. Headlines like "500 000 people at risk! The bug was so ser

Well, for very simple, repetitive tasks it does work: https://blog.openai.com/generalizing-from-simulation/ But you are right that it will fail on anything that is hard to simulate. And a lot of trivial things are very

There may be an issue with running a "brain" program on a non-brain hardware depending on what the program is. We don't know what the program is so it's hard to speculate but, it is possible that brain program is not wel

Similar arguments are made in scientific discourse. If you assume that the universe happened by chance, and the observable universe is just a part of a bigger multiverse, then you can ask yourself what is more likely: 1. The whole, enormous

Tesla can drive more than most people can. People needs breaks and cars can charge when people do too. Therefore Tesla owners don't seem to have any issues with range in US. They just need dense enough grid of superchargers.

Funny factoid. This neutrino had an energy equal to a flying house fly (kinetic energy of 12mg at 10km/h is around 300 tera–electronvolts): http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=(12+miligrams+*+(10+km%...

Yes, I agree on that. I think that just possibility of deeper understanding of the world is worth it. I hope that especially gravitational astronomy will flourish.

Your company is located in USA and I guess you cater mostly to USA based customers. I start to suspect that this is partially a cultural thing. In Poland, my home country, we pay mostly with PayU and DotPay, or direct bank transfer. Many co

Yes, that would explain why customers may want to use, so companies may offer them as an option, but why companies don't offer bank transfers? In Europe we do most of the day to day payments with bank transfers and companies seems to b

Banks may want to charge for transfers, but companies should not care. If a bank takes profit it's less potential profit for them.

The issue is, as I understand it, that physics has taken as to the limits of what is controllable by humans. Results of almost everything that we can control can be derived from fundamental physics that we do have. We may not have compute &

Then reporters should emphasize baselines. Otherwise this type of reporting misleads people and reporters are to blame for it. It is a "fake news" tough not necessarily any single report is false.
