This is nice but not even a mention of the rather robust existing solution here with Magit Forge? https://github.com/magit/forge

I mean yeah.. An argument is typically something pretty different from a "point"... Idk why that seems so crazy? If I do an experiment, I would never say I am arguing something. I wouldn't even say I was making the point.

The article, and the paper it references, is not an argument or "proof" of anything. This is not a theorem. The point is, given access to the same relative information as anything, there is (supposedly) a greater trust, there is

Kind of a meta point but for those who don't know, its fun to track this comment and its responses through time. I want to nominate it for the hall of fame in classic HN post genre. It will be two decades soon! https://hn.al

Just really really missing the point here in a kind of revealing way.. You probably have access to some really reliable models if I had to guess!

Eventually AI guys are gonna absorb everything, even the old tradition of angry software teardowns... Shouldn't having all powerful chat bot give you thicker skin, not thinner?

Is that right though? I feel like "tortured" is usually used more when one term is overly specific/over-fitted to the other. I've never heard it used like this, where it's about its provenance? Not that anyone real

Because this is exactly what they controlled for. FTA: > The researchers used Step 3.5 Flash, a model that was usually wrong on these questions, precisely so any reduction in judgment could not be explained as sensible delegation to a r

If you really really like the $100 AI video, no one can take that away from you, but its just weird to be so principled about this in the negative: like no one actually wants to say they're good , its just some people don't want

Its like misunderstanding the concept of "music video" as one form music can take, presumably alongside "music audio," and the being "classically trained" is meant to speak to a strength in "music" in

As opposed to the non-analog kind??

Classically trained in music videos??

Huh, got it. That's pretty cool!

I'm not doing fancy AI stuff but I have worked a lot with my own bespoke supercollider system where I record whole fretboards of guitars and then play alternative notes based off of certain rules. For whatever dumb reason though, the m

This doesn't make sense with the story. If it's good advice according to you , why do you need it at all? Doesn't it provide you something that you otherwise don't have? Maybe I am just not smart enough for this.. What

But like, just hypothetically here, what if they don't? Isn't that the framing here? Like, don't get me wrong, if we want to start talking about more centralized organization of the economy that operates on the calculated tot

This has a nice, Borgesian, charm to it but I feel like it's premise is confused. If it's just about the here near-empty signifier of "happiness," what does the magic tech of the earring actually contribute to the parab

What do you find hard about it? Is it a conceptual thing or the tools themselves? I'm very far from a sysadmin, but it's just such a ground level using-linux type thing in my brain, I don't think I ever thought I had a choice

Can you link to any examples of a good editorial by this measure?

It's extra weird because the Carmack quote immediately following seems to invalidate this very point! Or at the very least: "It was never about the actual coding " and "coding more separates you from those who will fa

The actual paper is linked there if you are curious. But also just thinking about your point for one second: in your mind, how else would they argue for the conclusion if not by checking the trend over time? Like what is the precise impli

Gotta say, if I ever was, I am really not envying the AI guys these days! Sounds terrible!

But in this particular case isn't the problem that it's sending everything in the sandbox? Rather than what it might do in an otherwise un-sandboxed system?

by beepbooptheory 3mo ago
OK but then this just feels like an ultimately empty, universally acceptable thing to argue for. No one wants overreach. Its like: "we should prevent regulations that actively harm people." I agree with that! This is precisely w

But like.. How can this remain a satisfying or even helpful position for you? It kinda feels The State is but one of a set of concerns I could have in this world. And the lack of one, in some contexts, is also a concern. Like, I wanna k

OK.. when you discuss these things with your Fable, what topics come up? Can you articulate one of the questions? I am probably just another dumb human FYI, but just try it out and we will see if I can follow along.

Unpack this a little bit. Why is it strange or interesting to you? What specific priors need to be updated for us here? What is the philosophical questions at play for you?

by beepbooptheory 3mo ago
As AI outsider, can you speak to how you draw the line here? Like doesn't the agential blahblah make upgrades/maintenance trivial? When do you get it to make you the thing versus choosing to vendor something out like back in the d

I think at the very least, once the dust settles, a lot of these datacenters could become really really cool haunted houses, giant escape rooms, etc. The real "AI" success story will be the person that makes an IRL backrooms theme
