Pretty sure those 3 examples will be completed by robots this year if they haven’t already.

Best of luck! Here's one paper I referenced for a starting point, may be the most useful one (not sure..been a while..) https://journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/atot/35/3/jtech-d...

Yes, but, significant work was done at an academic level between 2011 and 2017, researchers at universities, grad student projects, etc, that resulted in usable data being extracted. I worked on this problem for ~10 years off and on. It is

Another Dark Sky thread, another opportunity to ask the community if anyone knows about Apple doing research with the barometers in their phones. Dark Sky claimed they 'did' but they never expanded on what that meant for them. Did

Well, this is quite a detailed analysis and I don't want to take a dump on it because it's obviously a good analysis. BUT. Masterpiece? I don't think so. Dark Sky's data visualization was all shiny gold and not enough re

Makes you wonder how much power a random internet comment about a niche/new topic has, at least temporarily. How much can you affect the results of Bard/BingSydney/etc by just writing a comment?

Not sure what you mean? If you are referencing my username, cryptography is going strong! I made this account before cryptocurrency even existed I think.

Well I’m not taking it too seriously myself, but I gotta say, it’s been extremely fun. I see it mostly as a technique for learning the real limits of ChatGPT, not in answering prompts accurately so much as interfacing with the real world. Y

The #HustleGPT movement[1] has been using ChatGPT as the CEO of their ~$100 budget startups. (I am also doing the challenge). Wonder about new risks of company data being leaked from companies who are 100% ChatGPT-based and built totally in

I'm doing the HustleGPT challenge, where you direct ChatGPT to be the CEO and you are the irl human counterpart. I picked the idea of AI-guided pitch deck creation and have been following HustleGPT's directions. ChatGPT wrote 99%

Used to be common to see links on front page with 3 votes, but it’s been a while I think since I’ve seen that.

The article points out that there are at least 2 different ways that people have found to get Bing/Sydney to spit out the exact same prompt - it seems legit to me.

I also have that business card and also it is a prized possession haha. I met him at The Last HOPE in nyc about 10 years ago ( it wasn’t the last hope in the end) and got one there. Almost lost it at airport security once so I keep it at ho

Instagram itself does this kind of thing. Your handle isn't yours anyway, it's theirs. Instagram owns 100% of the handles and you just have to deal with that- same as every site, but Instagram is well-known for stealing your handl

How do they ‘detect’ the activation word without listening? Seems to me that is tautologically impossible. The definition of detect and listen are identical here. How do you detect sound waves without listening to them?

Clickbait - the article barely goes out 100 years, mostly focusing on the next few decades. Too bad because it’s an interesting piece on its own, but no discussion at all about the never. Obviously we have no idea how things will play out i

The Mars plans are medium-term, though, and they need many thousands of Starships+Boosters for that plan to work. In the short-term, SpaceX is 'behind' on launching Starlink, especially v2 which is needed to fulfill the promises

Privacy in good weather apps that are innovative can be tricky. Phones have enough sensors like barometers to be useful weather stations, and collecting that data could improve forecasts. But that also includes accurate location data, and m

Yes, there have been many ML efforts in weather forecasting, but I'm not sure many/any have been successful. The bar for success is pretty high, because you have to beat raw data collection and real physics equations that model th

Dark Sky did not explain themselves with the barometer data thing. Their actual algorithm did radar-based extrapolation, meaning they used statistics to 'move' radar features like rain into the future. This is why Dark Sky always

Does anyone know if Apple is actively using the barometer data from iPhones to work on improving weather forecast accuracy? Dark Sky claimed they were doing this but offered no information about it, so I am skeptical that they actually did

Slightly OT: I met Kevin Mitnick at The Last HOPE in 2008 in NYC and got his 'business card'. The card itself is a lockpick set - super cool! I nearly lost it to airport security because I used to carry it with me everywhere (ha,
