IE6 was a great browser. It was superior in any way (at the time it was released). So good that no other browser was needed. And that's when it started to become garbage.

Discussed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45583970 Thought I might just skip the repetition. You can continue the conversation within that thread.

Your angle is "there is no oversight, why are you asking for it?". It's the same overall angle as the guy who was spreading covid rumours here in this thread. There are efforts at estabilishing it though. And it's hard a

The UN has a page on Biological Weapons. https://disarmament.unoda.org/en/our-work/weapons-mass-destr... You can read more about the efforts for disarmament there.

This is a good announcement. Coming from a popular project, it helps educate people that AI is a threat to privacy. It's something that might not be obvious to some non-tech Tor users (journalists, activists, etc).

This is more of a jab to the common practice of assuming that our instance of life is typical than an actual hypothesis. It goes like this: we assume we're typical life, and we're getting bored of searching, therefore other typica

I don't know. If I were to guess, I would blame excesses in campaigning and polling as heavy contributors to the polarization effect.

You could do it on spare time, not using your company's hardware, and work on a public open source repository. This way there's no conflict with potential contracts. Also, LLMs have been around for a while. Maybe you can just sear

Covid is irrelevant to the discussion I opened. You're trying to steer the discussion into a place that will lead us nowhere because there's too many artificial polemics around it. The only thing to be said about it that resonates

You're trying to deflect the discussion into a polemic tarpit. That's not going to work. I do not endorse the view that covid was engineered. Also, I consider it to be unrelated to what I am concerned about, and I will kindly expl

I don't know, dude. Maybe the general is cracking an internal joke that we, the public audience, can't quite grasp. For example, it could be that some company offered this kind of AI to the army, with those exact words, and they r

Are these safety teams subject to the oversight of more estabilished international agreements and safeguards?

The movie Terminator 3: Rise of The Machines also predicted military involvement just before an AI apocalypse, in 2003. Why do people believe in the AI-2027 timeline and not Terminator 3: Rise of The Machines? That's because AI-2027 is

You claimed I wasn't accurate. Up until that point, I was willing to have a more relaxed conversation. I decided to narrow the discussion to focus on being accurate, as you demanded. It surprises me that now you're not intereste

I am concerned about this kind of technology being used to circumvent traditional safeguards and international agreements that prevent the development of biological weapons.

What I don't like about this take is that it implies that it could be that way. It implies the LLM could do the job of writing, leaving the programmer to just approve it. It sounds anti-LLM, but it actually helps support the illusion t

I think he got downvoted because I predicted his answer by saying "if you need something like this..." and he wasn't able to take the hint that I was already expecting some LLM preaching here.

I think the world is full of suckers right now, both right wing and left wing. Also, full of suckers for CEOs and celebrities. Suckers for AI utopia and so on. Trump somehow contributed to that radicalization (he is not the sole responsible

I think the world is not ready for the level of surveillance that exists in the wild. For example, this post could have been a product of just probing a particular group of people to understand if they are interested in the subject and what
