I'd much rather have it this way than how it was before. Sure, there are headaches, but not more than in the thirty-adapter-bag before times, and now if you get a nice cable that supports thunderbolt/usb3.14159/etc. it really

That's why my stupid flashlight won't charge on some chargers! Thank you, you've solved a mystery for me.

It'd be cool if Valve had a shareable "common power settings" similar to how the Deck works with Steam Input.

The software is better than the Switch, and the CPU/GPU is more capable. I'd say the design of the Switch is much better, though. My biggest frustration with the Deck is how huge it is, and second place goes to how poor the screen

For current AI? I'd focus on open access research into exploits, behaviors, modifications, and unintended results, so the capabilities and failings of these models are fully understood. Safety tools along the lines of GPT detectors rat

Maybe. They'd work for monitoring the dashboards. I use Samsung DeX to get a full desktop environment, and if you set its desktop to black (transparent, in the glasses) you can set floating windows in your vision for any apps. I think

Imagine the wonderful future in which, instead of boilerplate popups, Bing uses natural language and your own data to try to convince you to use it :/

No, it's exactly the opposite. Giving control of technology like this to only megacorporations and superpowers is a nakedly terrible outcome and advocates for it should be given zero traction.

If it works like the other GPT search engines that have popped up, it does provide links.

Google's browser engine monopoly is useful for pushing anti-consumer web standards like Manifest v3 and Widevine. They haven't been able to leverage it against big corporations and I'm not sure how they could. Chrome on the

An IMU is enough for 3dof, but not 6dof. An IMU and a camera is enough for 6dof but not on that FPGA.

I have some AR glasses that plug into a phone, and I've been experimenting with running the camera feed and using it as a third eye (looking up on shelves, eye in the back of the head, etc). It's less disorienting than I expected,

It's a 5MP camera for still photos, limited to 720p for video--although the data sheet says it can do 1080p as well. Perhaps that's bottlenecked elsewhere in the system.

Caution is well and good, but when I look at top selling computers there's a conspicuous lack of Xerox branding.

Windows, Office, and more recently Azure are big enough to make these failures survivable and give Microsoft more chances, but IE and Windows Mobile are textbook examples of complacency.

We're getting into semantics now, but that paper doesn't show learning. GPT can mimic learning capabilities through pattern recognition, but it works by feeding multiple past prompts in as one aggregate. If you show it examples, t

by Miraste 4y ago
That paper is about the training process, though. None of it applies to anything novel you type into the ChatGPT prompt. The end product is a totally static equation until OpenAI updates it.

I don't think it's enough to matter. At least, I've demoed to a lot of people and never encountered one. I've seen artificial motion cause often, but never just using VR.

What do you mean by accessibility? Content aside, I'd say the number 1 problem is friction. The headsets are still too heavy, too buggy, too isolating, too ugly for mass adoption, even though all those things have improved a lot since

They haven't launched much of anything - incremental updates are well and good, but the Quest Pro software page is unchanged from when it launched. The top selling software page is the same stuff it's been for years, largely the s

Is it really a market when you created it by burning $6 for every dollar you make?

by Miraste 4y ago
I would love to know where this money is going . $700M isn't bad revenue at all, that's probably more than all VR competitors combined and certainly enough to run the division off of. They canceled all the really promising/e

And SupCom 2 has way better pathfinding than 1, which I believe is A* based and is absolutely, game-losingly terrible.

That case, to me, is indicative of a larger problem - it's 75 pages of arcane justifications, and yet I already knew how all of the justices had voted just from reading the premise, because like every Supreme Court case in a politicize

This is why ChatGPT is so good at corporate language. It takes no understanding because it was already 95% content-free.

Yes, and either word is anthropomorphising. I stick with "lying" nonetheless, because if you start a conversation with "What color is the sun?" it returns a correct answer. It already has the association between "su

It insisted to me for a while that the sun was red. The "guardrails" do nothing to stop it from lying confidently about almost everything.

It feeds the entire previous conversation back into the AI until it reaches the token limit. This isn't a new technique; the first place I saw it was in AI Dungeon (an AI writing/adventure app) back on GPT-2. NovelAI, another writ
