Right, I understand about wear, but my point is that the behavior described in the links doesn't indicate that Chrome was scanning backup or media drives - only things like the registry, files directly related to Chrome, etc. If I have

This is interesting, I didn't know Chrome did this. But it doesn't back up the claim that "[i]f you have media or backup drives [Chrome] just constantly adds wear to them." Does anyone have anything on that?

Actually I take it all back, the car is a really good model for how we should handle AI safety. With cars, we let most people use some very dangerous but also very useful tools. Our approach, as a society, to making those tools safe is mult

As I said down-thread a bit... the issue with your car analogy is that we force everyone to get a license and register their car before they can drive around. Do you want to have to get a license and register your AI model before you'r

This analogy is strained, because when it comes to motor vehicles, aside from the concept of "street legal" cars that limit what you can do with the vehicle, we also have cops that patrol the streets and cameras that can catch peo

You are putting forth some general rules that seem reasonable, but they don't really apply in this situation. From what I've read, the train operator bid out the maintenance for these trains, and the manufacturer lost the bid to a

Do you think it should be illegal for companies to make advertising decisions based on the politics of the content their ad might run on?

Having an ICE that drives a generator (alternator?) to power a traction motor(s), without being mechanically linked to the drivetrain, is how diesel locomotives operate. I believe the concept also has been (is being?) explored for linehaul

I have no idea if the story is true or not, hence the "if true" clause in my post. I was just pointing out that focusing on the technical aspect is missing the point of the story... the degradation could have been triggered by any

What about the second part of my post, where the LLM has NOT been trained on the specific meter, but it does have some "concept" (maybe not the right word, but bear with me) of what meter is, so the human prompter can say "wr

You are picking the least important detail of the story. The deal is, Google found a simple way to kill the performance of a rival browser... so they exploited it and immediately started advertising how slow the rival was. By the time the r

I think you should go back and re-read the post I initially replied to.

OP claimed it was reasonable to say "Russia won't invade" because he claimed the US does things similar to Russia's buildup, but it doesn't invade. I was saying that, whatever your thoughts about US military policy,

I think this situation is different from hundreds of thousands of troops and thousands of pieces of armor and artillery being moved to the border over the course of a couple months.

So... zero on the border with Russia or China.

by clucas 3y ago
What are you talking about? Can you provide one example of the US doing a buildup on the Russian or Chinese border that was even a quarter the size of the Russian buildup ahead of their full-scale invasion?

I see. The OP article doesn't say anything about throwing away planetary protection guidelines... are you saying that there is no way to do the mission discussed in the article without relaxing or eliminating these guidelines? I feel l

On a quick scan, I'm not seeing anything in your linked article that counters either your selected quote, or the thrust of the OP. Can you help me out by pointing to a section or summarizing the argument?

Do you see a difference between a library choosing to sell old books to make room for new ones, and being forced to remove books for political reasons? If not, then I guess I cannot help you. Good luck out there buddy.

by clucas 3y ago
The article indicates that they are actually removing books that are already in libraries. So it's more like I just got kicked out of the party and you're playing ridiculous word games saying I wasn't "banned" becau

Would you consider Facebook preventing a user from posting to be "banning" or "censorship"? Even though they can still post on, say, Twitter?
