Openclaw has that ability. Read emails, take actions. Also, from the sounds of it the Ms OAI deal is in its last days.

Same could be said about the computer systems that have been developed in the last 20 years. But that hasn’t happened…

Never gets prematurely optimised. If it’s causing issues you can just ask the ai to improve that part. Shit, it will often even identify problematic areas. And if migrating from a complete dumpster fire to a cleaner working system sounds ha

Because the sun hides at night. Scientists have yet to figure out where he goes. Until that happens it’s not a great power source.

Yes, that’s what we’re talking about. Data centers in space. You put the cold side of the phase change on the internal cooling loop, step up the external cooling loop as high temp as you can and then circulate that through the radiators. Yo

My dude, heat pipes were invented for satellites and there’s people walking around with piezo pumps in their phones these days. We’re getting close. Peltiers generate a lot of heat to get the job done so even though electricity is pretty mu

For thousands of years we never even looked to Mount Everest, then some bloke on the fiver said he’d give it a shot. Nowadays anyone with the cash and commitment can get the job done. Same with datacenters in space, not today, but in 1000 y

Engine bays have a lot of design go into where to keep heat and where to get rid of it. You can look up thermal coatings and ceramics etc.

The equation has a ^4 to the temperature. If you raise the temperature of your radiator by ~50 degrees you double its emission capacity. This is well within the range of specialised phase change compressors, aka fancy air conditioning pumps

Hyper custom software can allow your business flows to sync together a lot better than the alternative, using zapier to glue a bunch of mostly poor fits and ending up with Frankenstein processes. Also, it allows you to pick and choose what

I hope all the Tesla shareholders understand that they’re about to get hosed. Musks making Tesla seem like a good fit into the portfolio.

The market for humanoid robots hasn’t been established like the market for $40,000 personal transport. Saying that, I wouldn’t be too surprised if robotaxi replaces 90% of taxis and Ubers in the next 5-7 years. But yea, stepping from sinkin

Very interesting, thanks for the insight into modern uni. It’s been a long time since I was there and struggle to imagine what it must be like now. It does seem like they’re going the wrong way, repelling tech to keep things easy instead of

I agree with you in part, you can’t expect to learn something like coding without the doing. The brave new world is that you no longer have to do “coding” in our sense of the word. The doing, and what exercises you should learn with have bo

Doesn’t look like a F14 either but a US warship, rather than some guys in a field, still managed to pull that off and send 290 people to their graves.

Can’t charge for something if you’re giving it away for free. Data’s the only moat left. Companies like stack overflow need to build revenue streams from AI or they will cease to exist. By banning bots and then licensing some kind of access

I think it’s only a matter of time before we see asic vendors making TPU devices. Same thing happened with BTC. There was enough money there to spawn an industry. Nvidias 70% margins are too hard to ignore. And if playing on the open market

It would be unlikely that Chinese EVs send anything less than western car manf. back to base. So you can safely assume that minute by minute data is sent back and sold to companies like Inrix.

Can confirm. Colombia based, a year ago I had my first Uber trip in a BYD, now I would guess about 10% of my journeys are Chinese EVs. It's impressive how fast they've caught up and mostly surpased their competition. If the Japane

Was just walking past a construction site and heard some of their banter. Didn’t realise the common man could debate the benefits of an LPU over GPGPU so eloquently. One of them even compared SRAM vs DRAM as being like a cheetah vs an injur
