That's not really how probabilities work. There's so many things happening in the world that you expect some things that are individually unlikely to happen to happen almost all the time. You just don't know in advance what t

No it's not, I agree, except I think they're worse off than housecats. Not that cats have it the best: https://gwern.net/review/cat "Cat Psychology & Domestication: Are We Good Owners?"

There's no abort system at that point. They probably could have saved Columbia though.

I don't really understand, "paperclips" is a stand-in for anything that would make the universe have near-zero value (when tiled/converted to this substance/pattern) when evaluated as a hypothetical in a public poll

That's a big problem though, mechanistic interpretability/explainability is really important for the whole "not wrecking everything" part of AI. You could also just hope AI stalls out or goes back to more hand-tuned Baye

Eternal Golden Braid, that is. Quite a bit of it's outdated at this point, but the explanation of uncomputability is probably still the best.

Well, most terrorists are not very smart, at least on an absolute level. I think even near-future models would be able to help them on a basic operations/not screwing up level. As I said, a problem is the reconstruction of information

Yeah, with this kind of stuff it's just a reputation thing. In future systems it's a problem though, if you accidentally train them on on the wrong thing or the system is smart enough to reconstruct the missing data, the model can

If you download weights and keep them around this kind of thing works forever. Well, until the model starts showing its age due to the cutoff date.

Logo looks kind of Star Trek. So does the ?cat? creature. The early animated show I guess? Is Stars Reach a unique enough name though? I'm getting results with and without the apostrophe.

There's a lot of extrapolation going on already. It's like if you speculated an evil demon as running a VR simulation in the year 1900, more powerful than current computers. No knowledge of transistors needed. On the level of math

I know posting "I agree" is not generally welcomed on here, but ChaCha8 is really underappreciated as a MCMC/general simulation random number generator. It's fast, it's pretty easy on cache, and it won't bias y

The model weights themselves can't do that, it's just not how single-pass token-by-token generation works. Even if you got rid of tokens and went byte-by-byte there's no improvement. To do what you are saying you'd have

That's something a hosted product could do, but if you have access to the weights you just don't run the additional filtering code. Also, the filtering code would be expensive to run, if you want it to be good quality. The result

It's below the Armstrong limit, you don't need pressurization. At this altitude occasional oxygen is probably fine. Pressurization is mostly a comfort thing until you get pretty high up.

Not really, you erase and then inpaint, or replace the offending area with multicolor noise, put a bit of multicolor noise over the whole thing, then do an image-to-image run on that.
