That doesn't add up to me at all. Agents are RLd on tool usage just as hard and you can provide an "authed API call" tool to whatever you want.

by __alexs 8mo ago
Why would secrets ever need to be available to the agent directly rather than hidden inside the tool calling framework?

> you should theoretically be able to take the output of the Lidar + Cameras model and use it as training data for a Camera only model. Why should you be able to do that exactly? Human vision is frequently tricked by it's lack of de

This is not true, there is just a specific protocol you have follow to do the building work. Yes it increases costs, but it doesn't explicitly prevent them.

That's super interesting. STC uses an irradiance of irradiance 1000W/m2, in space it seems like you get closer to 1400W/m2. That's definitely better, but also not enormously better. Seems also like they are rated at 25C,

You seem to be ignoring the substantial resource cost of putting them up there.

Sure but like, just use even more solar panels? You can probably buy a lot of them for the cost of a satellite.

Solar cells have exactly the same power rating on earth as in space surely? What would change is their capacity factor and so energy generation.

Tesla has a P/E in the hundreds and a ~0.3% market cap to profit ratio. In what world is this "very" profitable?

Just put a slightly larger solar array on the same equipment on earth?

LLMs only have agency at most in the sense that a dog which has been trained and bred specifically to herd sheep does.

Every agent on moltbook is run and prompted by a person.
165.
by __alexs 9mo ago
No. It's the shtick of the people that made it. Agents do not have "agency". They are extensions of the people that make and operate them.

An agent cannot interact with tools without prompts that include them. But also, the text you quoted is NOT recursive iteration of an empty prompt. It's two models connected together and explicitly prompted to talk to each other.
167.
by __alexs 9mo ago
It's actually entirely implausible. Agents do not self execute. And a recursively iterated empty prompt would never do this.

I think the idea is that the new scanners they have are capable detecting liquid densities better so that they can actually tell the difference now?

I am not an EM (anymore) but I see a lot of more junior engineers struggle with ambiguity and complex decision making in general. It is not uncommon to end up in situations where there are not clear right answers and developing the techniqu

They definitely do use the video directly from the Volume a lot of the time. It's not just immersion or fancy lighting for the actors.
171.
by __alexs 9mo ago
I guess current pipelines depends a lot on chroma key for the matte so isolating the actors cheaply might be hard with such complex backgrounds? Seems like it might not be long until we can automate that in such a controlled environment tho

This is not even a particularly competitive cashback card in the UK. But perhaps you don't consider that a "more regulated country."

If it's wet inside a tube tunnel something has usually gone very wrong surely? Also trains have quite a large number of axles, I'm sure you could reduce error by counting all of them.

Here in the UK we have a thing called the civil service. They are not immune from government meddling but if they are good at anything it's writing and following processes, even under duress.

This has happened so many times I feel like the DoJ must have some sort of standardised redaction pipeline to prevent it by now. Assuming they do, why wasn't it used?

I'd happily accuse quite a lot of people of not being very welcoming to women in the industry. It's a very common trait to have.
