A gaming PC is probably your best bet. PC workstations for ML are extremely expensive.

This is the big problem with treating your home as an investment. People who just want a place to live near where they work now have to play this game too. And it's not cheap game.

> The ability to say "I don't know" is not a high bar. For you and I, it's not. But for these LLMs, maybe it's not that easy? They get their inputs, crunch their numbers, and come out with a confidence score. If

It's not just a Google annoyance, these types of things are all over the web. I have uBlock Origin settings to limit these types of things, like others in this thread have explained. But there's a bigger issue with the modern web.

Yes. It's very easy to fall into this trap. It's the classic "overestimate what can be done in 2 years but underestimate what will be done in 20 years". Life in 2 years will be almost identical to what it is today but li

It could have happened already, but hasn't for some reason. I guess the hype is still too strong. Didn't Sam Altman already come out and say GPT-5 is just going to be a more streamlined offering of the different types of services

I've been on embedded projects where several weeks of work were spent on changing one line of code. It's not necessarily organizational dysfunction. Sometimes it's getting the right data and the right deep understanding of a

Nice, I like seeing projects like this. In fact I always wanted someone to make a complete system based on GNUstep. Like a Mac but open source software and hardware. App store, customer support, all that.

I believe if RISC-V takes off then most of the popular commercial RISC-V implementations will come from existing chip companies. Qualcomm, NVIDIA, NXP, TI, Samsung, MediaTek and a bunch in China. Of course, the performance of those companie

Impressive because nobody has ever successfully made a Linux desktop computer targeted at consumers the way Apple has. I wouldn't count Chromebooks or Android devices. I mean a system you would use as a workstation or a power user&#x27

I'm leaning "no" and "yes, for what we know so far" to your questions. I think tools are fine depending on how you define a tool and its relationship to human intelligence. If we build an artificial pancreas that le

I agree with you LLMs are not intelligent. But in this world, in this universe, there are lots of problems to solve. Humans understand these problems more than any other organism or machine we know of, but we are not general. The most we ca

> Mostly because we actually do use our conscious thoughts to fight disease when our immune system can't. I think in some sense you're right. There's a higher level way to address disease that humans have made progress on.

Human intelligence is not general intelligence. If it were, you'd be able to use your conscious thoughts to fight off diseases and you wouldn't need your immune system, for example. The problem I see isn't that AGI isn't

It's rare. But it does happen. Razer had this problem until recently. Looks like they fixed it because I just checked and it seems fine now.

We don't need AGI, whatever that is. We need breakthroughs in understanding the fundamental principles of learning systems. I believe we need to start with the simplest systems that actively adapt to their environment using a very limi

I have some technical questions about feet. Human feet have metatarsophalangeal joints connecting the toes to the rest of the foot. But humanoid robots don't have these (at least, the vast majority don't). Why? These joints are ve
