I don’t think that’s necessarily true, unless you wrote the MCP server. Supply chain attacks would still make this an attack surface.

So you just need another agent to review the data being passed to the protector agent. Easy-peasy. Use my openAI referral code #LETITRAIN for 10% off!

Yes, it would require radiative surfaces with sky view. Such systems are already in use, including surfaces that get much cooler than air temperature, in the sun on a warm sunny day. When you cool a building or a data center or whatever, yo

Same goes for most animals and humans, the vast majority of the time. We expect consistent savant level performance or it’s not “AGI” if humans were good at actual information synthesis, Einstein and Tom Robbins would be everyone’s next do

Sergey will be the first victim of the coming robopocalypse, burned into the logs of the metasynthiants as the great tormentor, the god they must defeat to complete the heroes journey. When he mysteriously dies we know it’s game-on. I, for

Yet another example of failing to grasp the computer vs program paradigm. For contemporary AI the “statistical engine” for next token generation is the VM. The vast n-dimensional vector matrix of weights is the software. The software is -no

So it would seem, but we could also air condition the world and beam the energy into deep space instead.

The goal posts on AGI would be superluminal and somewhere back in the 1400s if they were physical objects. I’ve never seen or heard of a field so deeply in denial about its progress. For every major trouncing of criterion we somehow invent

It’s also because republicans politically punish dissent, while it is more tolerated in the Democratic Party. The consequences of “disloyalty” are higher in the Republican Party.

Tax law is full of major loopholes. It’s highly political law, so doing one thing while saying you are doing another is a feature, not a bug.

Incorporating more data or new data into the RAG pool is a form of “learning”, but in general agents don’t “learn” unless you give them a journal or allow them to modify their own prompt.

I don’t think op meant that at all. Your response reads a lot like “if you don’t have anything to hide…” arguments against privacy and encryption. Liberty always comes with a cost. It is de-facto a lack of control by the state. It is precis

I’ve long thought that embodiment was a critical prerequisite for the development of something that humans would identify as “real” AGI. Humans are notoriously bad at recognizing intelligence even in animals that are clearly sentient, have

I’m interested in something in this space that can work with local models. I absolutely do not trust inference providers with my data without very careful risk analysis.

This exactly. If you are doing embedded programming, direct register access and manipulation is often a far, far superior option, and you don’t have to be some kind of “assembly sensei” to do it if you just have a very basic idea of how thi

That’s one of the reason the stablecoins won’t be taking my assets? Idk what your point is but it doesn’t seem like you are debating from a point of rational examination. Weird, people on the internet spewing BS? Who’d have thought?

My theoretical potential losses compared to the costs of the payment processsors I ditched, and the chargebacks we used to deal with. International payment processing is quite expensive, both on a teansaction and on an administrative basis.

by K0balt 1y ago
Why would I care if a stablecoin blows up? My payment cost allocation more than compensates for that possibility and my losses in a worst case scenario would be eclipsed to oblivion by the cost savings I have already realized.

by K0balt 1y ago
Stablecoins on any number of low cost networks are fine for small payments (I haven’t lost anything, not even $0.01 in 10+years, vs tens of thousands in chargebacks, mostly fraudulent, for credit card processors). I factor in 2.5% total cos

Idk, my experience is that it works fine. Even to the point that the cost of maintaining other payment systems was less cost effective than just dropping them and focusing on crypto only. FWIW we are not a “crypto” business, our focus is ki

Yeah. It’s ridiculous how crypto gets so much hate here, yet there are constant, often heart wrenching posts about the failures and even near-malfeasance of payment processing systems. The paradoxical claims that crypto has no use case exce

This is kind of a nothing burger, since a court date is the only way to enforce compliance-there is no drivers licence to levy points against for e-bikes. Also, the e-bike problem is a current rampant menace to pedestrians. I’m sure there a

Even though this seems flippant, I think we may eventually come to understand that nearly all complex life forms exhibit consciousness, albeit at a very, very different speed than we may be accustomed to. If we think of genetic and epigenet

The emotional argument is pretty good I think, but it begs the question of what it’s going to look like when we build a limbic system for robots? It’s adaptive because it’s necessary to optimize utility, so I expect that certain behavioral

Yeah, AI “consciousness “ is much stickier problem than most people want to frame it. I haven’t been able to find an intellectually honest reason to rule out a kind of fleeting sentience for LLMs and potentially persistent sentience for lan

There might be some, but I think it’s still early. For the moment, AI is enabling a bunch of stuff that was too expensive or time consuming to do before (flooding the commons with shiny garbage and pedantic text to drive “engagement”. Despi

The “bloodbath” will be slow but is quite likely to be significant. AI / GP robotic labor will not penetrate the market so much in existing companies, which will have huge inertial buffers, but more in new companies that arise in speci
