The West has largely snuffed the horror of slavery in its sphere but outside of that it's the wild west. There are horrifying things to read if you go down that rabbit hole.

This reminds me of "koko the gorilla can speak English" stuff. Need to disambiguate learned mimickry from the real thing.

I mean, there are credible safety issues here. A Kimi fine-tune will absolutely be able to help people do cybersecurity related attacks - very good ones. In a few years, or less, biological attacks and other sorts of attacks will be plausib

Unfortunately when you have people activated over certain things you become literally Hitler for not wanting to participate in the slug-fest.

I'm imagining the converse, "'Americans' furious at x" and I'm a little incredulous that there is such a thing as a national unified body of opinion.

Having AI generate tests is technical debt unless what you're doing is extremely trivial and well-trodden in which case you can basically gen all of the code and not care at all. Tests are where the moat still exists because prior to c

It doesn’t matter that it “has less moving parts”. It is the most reliable powertrain on the market full stop, including full electric powertrains. https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/car-reliability-owner-s...

This is nonsense. Hybrids are outselling EVs in the US. Hybrid adoption in the US is soaring. It's doubled in just a few years. They're hugely popular in the US precisely because they're NOT a compromise.

This definitely isn't true. This was measured by Consumer Reports and Toyota hybrids were the most reliable power trains. This is likely due to experience, regardless, it's the reality.

China spent a lot of money for this position in the market.

He's just saying he doesn't want to be eviscerated by Ed Witten, which is a pretty commonly shared sentiment in the community.

That definitely isn't true. Trump has repeatedly been effusive about how important H1B labor is.

If I mostly trim my hedges, but sometimes, very rarely, need to cut down small trees, am I best served by simply owning a hedge-trimmer and renting a chainsaw or other appropriate tool when necessary, or by buying a katana for both jobs? Ev

The brain is a confabulation/justification engine. In reality ideal utility is likely found in the shape of a 2008 Toyota Camry and a U-Haul truck rental when necessary.

>A pickup truck should just be max utility, especially if you're a manufacturer making your first one I don't think this is actually true, most pickup trucks aren't designed for maximum utility. They're designed to se

I feel like kudos for making a public eye-sore merely because people typically don't make public eye-sores is a bit missing the point.

It depends on the person's disgust response. There was a study in the 90s wherein the authors sterilized a cockroach and dipped it in some juice. Despite knowing the juice was perfectly safe rationally, most people would refuse to drin

This is definitely wrong, most AI researchers DO NOT agree with LeCun. Most ML researchers think AGI is imminent.

Ridiculous post. Power outages would kill a lot of people if sustained. A Carrington event would devastate modern society.

The unquestioning logistical and intelligence support from the US military is truly formidable, and probably expensive.

On the other hand, Trump has a track record of leaking capabilities.

Cyber-warfare capabilities on this level seem pretty horrific. What if you could simply turn off the power grid of Kyiv or Moscow in anticipation of a strike? That seems extremely disorientating. What if you could simply turn off the power

It's hard for me to imagine how machine learning Nobel Prize laureate Geoffrey Hinton, someone who is openly warning about extinction risk from AI, is some insane crank on the topic of... machine learning. Same goes for Turing Award wi

It's interesting that Claude could do this in about 10 minutes.
