There's a number of things that are alarming me about this, but I'll focus on one thing: the privacy implications. Not just for the user, but for those who will appear in the pictures that Google will be - for sure - ingesting for

All the robots were the same AI and it effectively killed off humanity because it thought that we were not good enough. When a machine starts killing us off because of dubious and intrinsically evil and selfish reasons, then I can't th

AI scares me. Even though I've used neutral networks and even more complex models/networks in projects and have a fair understanding of how they work, they still scare me a lot. Even though we are far away (supposedly) from creati

The bottomline is that I've seen it happen in real life, to people in my social circle and family. I wrote a reply to another comment that addressed something similar. The best way I can create a correlation in the real world is this w

Greek has funny animal noises. Dog: γάβ (yav - but pronounce the y as yearn). Chicken: πάκ πάκ πάκ (pak pak pak). Bird in general: τσίου (tsiou - pronounced kind of like chew).

This looks pretty cool, although it's missing a little more explanation on how to actually use it. I think the API section doesn't have enough information.

This. In all fairness an AI could make policy, but probably not good policy. People think anything relating to AI is cool, but forget the scary side of it, like with Gpt-2.

It was only natural that so many scams came out of the crypto space. It's an unregulated field that's attracting millions of US dollars. Plus, you could steal a bunch and get away with it.

High inflation due to government-initiated devaluation has happened even in the US, but it didn't result in a hyperinflation. The Weimar Republic is a good example of a government that got screwed because of this. What makes hyperinfla

This is something I would have definitely used if I were still a student, although I'm not a fan of it being a Chrome extension. I'm still curious enough to test it out.
