And it will affect good engineers and turn them into worse engineers too AI benefits rely on these good engineers having 5, 10, 20 years of experience pre-AI designing (and fully, thoroughly understanding) these systems. What's going t

>Products/companies that no longer exist because OpenAI, or AI in general, made them obsolete What would you place here anyways? Chegg and Stack Overflow?

There aren't a lot of highly technical audiobooks or ones that give the same specificity that would be the same as an academic paper

What is meant by "cools down quicker"? Will near-boiling water drop 10 temperature points in a shorter time than the warm water? Yes. Will it reach 10C faster than the warm water? No.

Not the original reply, but I support the correction here. Regardless of how pedantic/nitpicking it seems, I remember getting confused about this a lot when learning digital signal processing. Simply because its really easy to upsample

It's a completely grotesque point you've got. Tiles are advertised as used for personally tracking your devices. To the average person its the same technology as a Bluetooth earbud. Not a device for tracking at a central whatever

The task of helping to find wording that conveys your thoughts could mean several methods. It could mean you one-shot reword prompts and that helps you find wording. Or it could mean you're taking its output more substantially. Or you&

Sure, but even the specific case isn't about TOS within the limits of screen time or online browsing. It's about tracking your physical location via Tile trackers. Sure, you can get off streaming services, but you're still si

The problem is that this becomes a race to the bottom of actual quality and turns into advertising. Sponsored reviews of products are basically this. If you are paying a reviewer for a stamp of approval and the reviewer sets the bar too hig

980 items being shipped then destroyed versus 1000 items being destroyed. It's 980(x+y) instead of 1000(x) I have no knowledge of the tradeoffs, but I might also imagine that the method of destruction could be worse: incineration vs la

Except being destroyed locally in a controlled or regulated process and shipped to be destroyed overseas with more relaxed regulations are not equal footprint wise

AI is a big driver of literal direct physical corruption. Language and knowledge is forever tainted because of an outpouring of AI generated spam. Evaluating resumes is more difficult now because you can't tell real impacts versus fabr

The breeze is more like a 2 ton harvester expertly engineered to knock your tree down.

What's stopping the price from being extremely low? Plenty might pay $1 to take a bundle of 1000 items of clothing, pick through it and find 20 items they like, then destroy the 980 other items.

Not quite when you are burning a ton of fuel to ship them overseas to arrive in the burn pit.

Maybe, but it could also just be self promotion by the owner of this 'agent'. They've set it up to contribute to a bunch of open source big projects. They probably want the ability to say "I've contributed XX PRs fo

I think most of it is them not having a way to know if the contribution was completely autonomous or directed by a human. So they're defaulting to being as explanatory as possible because they don't want to give a rudely abrupt re

Sure, but the ID solution is an "if everyone just gives up their privacy / anonymity / sensitive data" and the mechanism is by denial of service In fact its worse. Every site must also implement this security check. Or

The above post is an example of the LLM providing a bad description of the code. "Local first" with its default support being for OpenAI and Anthropic models... that makes it local... third? Can you provide examples in the wild

I don't understand the critique. Nobody has ever made these claims. I don't mean this as an ad hominem, but was this comment generated with AI or something?

Where can I find information on self-hosting models success stories? All of it seems like throwing tens of thousands away on compute for it to work worse than the standard providers. The self-hosted models seem to get out of date, too. Or t

Obviously this would never work with a single employer. But I think the point is moreso that if every employer, in an altruistic sense, decided to pay their employees enough to afford more purchasing power, the entire market would grow fast

in that case, why not summarize the previous chapters and then include that as context to the next chapter?

The amount doesn't really matter. What matters is the variance. There could be only 3 radiologists in the world that use different practices with 1% 10% and 50% error rates. It would be misleading to say "Radiologists miss 50% of
