In fact, humans will be running at relativistic speeds within this century, risking the total destruction of the Earth if they should ever trip over something and fall down. Scary stuff. And it's not science fiction- it's based on

Absolutely agree. When I was a kid, I took a MOOC (MITx 6.002x) because I was interested in EE. They said calculus was a prerequisite, which I didn't know yet, but I went ahead anyways; every time the course required calculus, I'd

The existence of sentient AGIs would certainly have wide-ranging impacts on the law! This case is not about sentient AGIs.

Every now and then, I'll actually sort of believe an article like this. Then I go and test the current models on things like semantic search. For instance - The Hough transform detects patterns with certain structure in images, e.g. ci
