I think you are overselling it a bit. 60-some cameras were misconfigured for a relatively short period of time.

Does the XBox not have an option for doing those updates in the background or when you aren't playing?

I don't think any of the ARC-AGI-3 tests are very interesting. At least not as interesting as driving a car. Children literally do a similar task in go karts every day. Another interesting task would be to take the AI in a robot body i

I was more interested in the claim that fascism always collapses because China feels like a durable counter-example. But if you don't classify China as fascist, it is irrelevant.

Do any of the big AI companies have a model that are good at tasks that require learning? For example, every day people teach teenagers how to drive and with only dozens of hours of practice, they are on the road.

What definition of fascism are you using? Is China fascist?

The results are fine, it just isn't a very interesting benchmark. It can generate video and it's getting better. Great, I guess. Clocking improvements in areas the AIs are terrible at (assuming the goal is still AGI) are more inte

I'd like to see tests of things the current AIs are bad at, like drive a car. Or maybe take instruction to complete some novel activity to test how well they can learn.

Thinking is defined by what humans do when they say they are thinking. That can change because words mean whatever it is that they communicate.

Well, copyright claims are usually a civil matter (in the US at least). For a civil dispute you have to make a judge or jury believe you more than the other person. But it sounds like you are talking about a criminal charge. There the bar i

I wonder how concerned writers and publishers are about copyright of AI written text? As I understand it, in a lot of jurisdictions, AI products are not covered by copyright. If my understanding is close to correct, than I can see why the m

I think he's talking about it more in the sense that there will be speculation about the provenance of some work. For example, if desktop fabrication tools get cheap and good enough, maybe one day garage tinkerers will be making Patek

It was great except for the insects and lack of showers. So many bug bites.

Are there any AI models that can be taught?

Do these learn? It would be cool to have a robot that can be taught to drive the same way we might teach a teenager to drive.

One could place political/moral/ethical arguments in primacy and still conclude that the greater good is best served by continuing on.

From the title, I was hoping this was going to be a story about the major AI distros agreeing on an API and basic AI capabilities to be included in Linux just like Microsoft and Apple have done with their operating systems. Instead, it&#x27

Sounds like a better outcome to me. Plus, unless GrapheneOS gets encryption wrong (which I doubt), cloning the memory to get the data isn't really a thing.
