I am not impressed that a computer can beat a human at a computer game. i am more pissed that i may have been playing tetris 99 against unbeatable ai.

unfortunately, i mainly used it for the android app. i spent about an hour trying to figure out any way to disable that ui or opt out of the AI shenanigans to no avail.

can i get a version of gmail and docs without ai? I had to stop using google keep because they added a flashy AI button that couldn't be removed.

The point of an engineer isn't just "to write code." You pay engineers to understand the systems they work with. Code is incidental.

I did a lot of work in unassisted vim when I was in university, and I would say the answer is twofold: - you become a proficient user of tabs in whatever IDE or text editor or window manager you use. you open up header files (or collapsed s

On the contrary, this is the most important part of the thesis. They are arguing not only that this AI was vulnerable to this specific attack, but that any AI model is vulnerable to attack vectors that the original builders cannot predict o

This is absolutely wild. In a just society this would be illegal. Why are we just hearing about this now? this is the most rot economy, rent-seeking behaviour imaginable.

Exactly this. The people in power have been nakedly cutting taxes and cutting expenditures in the regulatory state. This is the obvious, foreseeable result, and we cannot let politicians pretend these things will fix themselves thru magic.

wow, it's almost like cutting taxes and disassembling the regulatory state creates bad outcomes anywhere it's profitable.

A friend of mine in university 10+ years ago wrote a simple utility to feed web request data bytestreams directly to audio output, essentially creating static noise when webpages were doing things. He said it led him to some interesting dis

I know there are large multiplayer shooters that have or are going to be moving off of Linux soon. Anecdotally, the percentage of linux users running cheat software is significant, north of 50% in some cases. Ultimately, I sympathize with g

The takeaway that "content" can be the hard part in making a game is why I think its so important to make games with teams. There are some folks out there who will produce art the way an engineer produces code; all they need is to

The author discusses some of these points. One excerpt: > But even at a much more mundane level there’s a certain crucial relationship between space and time for observers like us. The key point is that observers like us tend to “parse”

Pretty obscene that somebody could have so much wealth that $7,000,000,000 is just the tax bill. Also weird that it's framed as a "gift."

The pedophile stuff is one thing, but the lying to investors stuff is what I think is most likely to actually have an effect on the company. Pretty egregious stuff on both fronts, regardless.

What is useful about this? I am a game programmer, and I cannot imagine a world where this improves any part of the development process. It seems to me to be a way to copy a game without literally copying the assets and code; plagiarism wit

"is it possible to [...]" no "If so, that'd be kinda great" Yeah, if it were real, it would be nice. But it's a fantasy of AI, not what actually exists.

Oh good, the AI will be training on the openly right-wing media coming out of newscorp. Can't wait for AI to tell me that the cause of my iPhone malfunction is black-on-black crime, or wokeness, or whatever their next target is.

>“This behavior is not okay, _regardless of the issue,_ and the employee was terminated for violating our policies.” There are some issues that are worth speaking up about. There are some issues that are worth being fired over.

iPods are a relic from when a time before everybody carried around a cell phone that could also stream any music they would care to hear. What do I gain from this device that I don't get from using an iPhone?
