Highest I got was 26 in a row. AI seems to love generating "close up" images of a subject. Its like every image has to have an obvious subject (that was in the prompt), and it struggles to make scenes without a clear subject and m

money is just an abstraction over value, it is not value itself. if AGI is achieved, the AI labs will just use AGI to produce what they need instead of trading for it, which would include full vertical integration on all products.

In my experience, poorer families tend to live in multigenerational housing at a much higher rate. So this doesnt seem to be true. Less affuluent usually means more sharing of resources, not less.

On the other hand, https://youtu.be/iY4nx5zuvPA?si=rrPxlC92sUDJYvmO . SFPD posts a number of videos showing that drones are stopping crime, violent crime.

AI changes this a lot. You can realistically get a featured 3d engine+editor up and running in a couple week with AI, working solo. Probably better than what Godot or even Unity gives you. Also AI is very good at editor/tooling stuff,

Big mistake. Its so easy to build out an engine and editor tools with AI now, you could easily surpass godots feature set (for your game) in a week with Claude. With the advantage of it being leaner and easier for agents to navigate. You ca

If you are in a space ship that is accelerating, your available fuel energy also goes up (since it increases its own kinetic energy).

The reason was agricultural labor was automated, it had nothing to do with the preferences of the people at the time. If people preferred farming to factory work, tough luck.

I think people say they want a meritocracy, but they actually mean "everyone can succeed", which are different. In a meritocracy where everyone is trying hard (like in asian cultures), then hard work is not enough, not everyone ca

>Don't: Run bash commands This seems unreasonable to me. One of the best uses of AI is that you can just tell your computer what to do in natural language and it does it. Running bash commands isn't part of the education, its b

Heh, I've always thought this too. The most value I got out of writing assignments was making the research and outline. The step to turn the outline into the essay mostly involved adding BS fluff and transitions.

I agree. Humans are given a body that lets them "discover" things on accident, test out ideas, i.e. randomness. As in, I would hazard a guess the discovery of the wheel wasn't "pure intelligence", it was humans acci

I believe when we have AI Agents "living" 24/7, they will become creative machines. They will test ideas out their own ideas experimentally, come across things accidentally, synthesize new ideas. We just haven't let AI r

Nice. Next step is giving codex/Claude Code local device control...problem is the current ios/android are so locked down that agents can't do much ...but the space is so ripe for disruption that I bet we'll see AI-native

Doesnt this apply to humans as well? Thats why children play the game "Telephone" and watch as a message gets corrupted. The solution is to provide single source of truth.

If someone robs a bank and someone inside dies of a heart attack, thats felony murder. I would be happy if the same applied to ransom attacks or other blackmail/leaking of info. If someone commits suicide because of it, its murder.

Yeah I think this is everywhere in society now. For example, you used to have to ask others for directions, which naturally leads in to conversation about where your going. Now you look like a bit odd if you ask for directions since everyon

The human brain is an electrical signal prediction machine. Anything that looks like intelligence will look like a prediction machine because the alternative is logic being hardcoded apriori.

Because doing subtraction on sizes/indicies is common, and signed handles the case where you subtract below 0. Unsigned yields unintuitive results. i.e, unsigned fails silently. For example, looping to the 2nd to last item in an array

Not to be a shill, but Hunyuan 3d studio is pretty good. You get 20 free credits/day which is pretty generous. Texturing still is subpar. But I've found that using Hunyuan for modeling+retopo+unwrap -> clean up in blender ->

Has anyone studied the converse? Not using AI leading to loss of productivity? I feel like AI is no longer a "gain" but rather simply a requirement to compete.

Plus that graph is the first derivative of industrial robots. the actual # of new robots since 2012 is the area under the respective curves, so a very big lead.
