It seems to me that if a puzzle has gone unsolved for 35 years despite many very skilled people trying hard to solve it... It is not actually a good puzzle? Like, here - here's a code that no one will ever solve: ITIWKSMNDIWKD WJSIKWMW

At this point the British royals are basically tourist attractions. They probably generate more revenue than they consume.

This is probably an uninformed question, but why are you comparing layers' output to ground truth? Isn't the point that ground truth is unknown?

OpenAI is not going bankrupt tomorrow. But in the universes where it does go bankrupt in a few years, it would mean the AI bubble had popped, and the demand for top-end chips would have collapsed.

In the world in which OpenAI goes bankrupt, their used GPUs would be worth perhaps 10% of their value today.

The situation certainly sucks for the actual PhD holders. Go through 5-8 years of intense work and minimal pay, and the outcome is maybe a 10% chance of getting the job you want? It's unsustainable. I got my PhD 20 years ago, but I wou

You think he's calling the gambling industry deplorable because of information asymmetry? Might have more to do with exploiting addiction and ruining lives for profit.

I'm confused why this is addressed to Azure instead of OpenAI. Isn't Azure just offering a wrapper around chatGPT? That said, I would also love to see some examples or data, instead of just "it's getting worse".

It's pretty clear that for-profit entities will optimize to maximize profit at the expense of all other variables, including safety and the environment. We certainly can't trust the CEO class to properly prioritize safety concerns

You should reexamine your media diet, because it has you believing absolutely insane things.

Well, c'mon, let's be fair. Your source says overdose-related liver failure. And reading further, most of the overdoses are either intentional (suicide attempts) or a result of addiction and opiate/acetaminophen combination

The powers that be don't care at all about thousands of insurance adjusters losing their jobs. But they care very deeply about vaporizing hundreds of billions in shareholder equity.

Are you suggesting that Jeff Bezos somehow convinced all his PE buddies to tank Sears (and their own loans to it) in order for him to build Amazon with less competition? Because, well, no offense, but that seems like a remarkably naive unde

>few people have any idea of who conquered whom in 1620 AD and what were the consequences for their distant ancestors I bet most people in the US could tell you in broad strokes who used to live in North America and who conquered them.

One of the reasons Alzheimer's research has been so ineffective is that we don't know what physiological role tau and amyloid play in healthy brain function. Evolution didn't invent them so we would get Alzheimer's. Seei
