It's still creative work to make music using AI too. In both cases, the machines just made it a lot easier

But Motorola is actually the party that made the decision, as per the article. Title is misleading

I'm not convinced the two are necessarily mutually exclusive. Surely a skilled developer could make use of AI to produce stuff faster, while still understanding everything and making sure the code is well written (well generated?) Have

I used to really enjoy theming and Riceing, but then I realised it was pointless: my monitor always looks the same, with a full screen IDE window covering up all my fancy themes

I can't help but wonder if there is any hope of this working for trans persons in the future? Could someone born as a man have a transplanted womb and get pregnant through in-vitro fertilization, in theory? anyone here with more medic

In terms of maturity, how does this compare to Godot?

Well enlighten me then, What's wrong with helping marine biologists trying to make sense of dolphin language?

by amarant 2y ago
None of those points are even remotely relevant in this case, unless you're worried about dolphin-English translators losing their livelihood? Mindlessly parroting such talking points where they're not applicable is also a form of

It's trendy to hate Google, and even more trendy to hate anything AI. The cynicism on display here is little more than virtue signalling and/or upvote farming. Sad to see such thoughtless behaviour has reached even this bastion of

That's a very keen observation! It's probably profitable in a lot of cases to follow those metrics, shovelware content is cheaper to produce, and since the median user pays the same subscription fee as the enthusiast, you get bett

The thing with training a LLM with basically as much of the internet as you can process, is that it basically becomes a automated "wisdom of the crowds" machine, which isn't all bad, but not all-knowing either.

I dunno. If we assume rational, greedy owners and the costs are fixed(as in, there's a cost per animal, not a cost per visitor), the costs are pretty much irrelevant to pricing. They'll want to maximise income. The parameters that

Nah. The zoo's expenses will be pretty much fixed, regardless of number of visitors. They'll want as many visitors as possible: there's more money in selling a million cheap tickets per day than there is selling 5 expensive o

Yeah you can! Wet forest does not burn as well as dry forest! Water is absolutely a fire retardant, however it may not be quite as effective as the red stuff from the article.

Ooh, that's pretty clever! This is why I like HN, people here are smarter than I am

I had this idea before, but thinking about it, you very soon run into some pretty uncomfortable tradeoffs. The internet would change fundamentally. The article lists social networks as things that would disappear, and good riddance, but we&

I have not! But I've often been frustrated when an agent gives me code that doesn't compile, and I keep thinking that would be a solvable problem. One computer program should be able to talk to the other

One thing that I think would be cool, and that could perhaps be good starting point, is a TDD agent. How I imagine this working: User (who is a developer) writes tests, and a description of the desired application. The agent attempts to bui

Not surprised either, I've met a doctor who trusted me that I was in pain exactly once, every other doctor or nurse has looked at me like I was some kind of drug addict. The strongest such look I've ever gotten was a nurse in the

What makes you think the competitor wouldn't simply be blocked as well?

The Foundation series is arguably that, but you only find out in book 14 or so.

You can modify the uhk firmware quite extensively with the included Agent application. I typically stick to holding a keys to access different layers, but you can also double tap them to make it stick to a new layer. I only rarely use that

This is pretty cool! It's noticeably better than any of the other similar music generation tools I've tried, kudos!
