It was actually less than eight days out before they knew they were cancelled. It's hard to do something in so little time.

Getting the probabilities could be very difficult though, especially for issues that never occurred before.

That sounds promising. I think ray tracing checks for ray intersection over an unsorted polygon soup. Sorted data seems hard to come by.

With "practically benefit" I meant a speedup that is noticable. Is there any software that is significantly bottlenecked by the speed of sorted search?
607.
by cubefox 6mo ago
Since binary search is already very fast with its O(log n) time complexity: are there any real world applications which could practically benefit from this improvement?

The sneaky thing here is that understanding, and knowledge in general, disappear silently. So you don't notice it when you unlearn and forget something. Only if a situation comes up where you need that understanding again do you notice

It's strange that they don't include reasoning training (RLVR). Their justification doesn't sound convincing: > While reasoning models have grown in popularity in recent years, their abilities aren’t always the most effici

I understood the monad concept for a few months in university. After the exam was over, I soon stopped understanding it. The same thing happened with the concept of VC dimension. It's kind of interesting, because we usually don't

Why are they still using their old Xe2/Battlemage architecture rather than their new Xe3/Celestial? They already used it in their Panther Lake chipset.

It's like being asked whether yellow is more green or red. But it's different. You can't get yellow just from alpha blending green and red. You need additive color mixing. Black and white are different. You can get grey just

Yeah. AI progress is insanely fast if you compare it to anything else. Where else is a one year old technology already hopelessly outdated? 10 years ago is basically stone age.

A few years ago most people here would have said the same thing about an AI doing most of their programming. Now people here are saying it about AGI. It's a ridiculous inability to extrapolate.

Well, the word "machine" by itself is even more established, and it isn't compatible with describing diagrams (that routinely don't represent machines) as machines.

by cubefox 6mo ago
It could describe some arbitrary process that doesn't involve machines. E.g. "how to get married"
625.
by cubefox 6mo ago
Perhaps, but I object to the "machine" phrasing. Ordinary finite state "machines" (without hierarchy) aren't machines either, they are just diagrams of something that could be a machine or something else.

Any side effect goes away if you reduce the dosage sufficiently. In the recent Harvard study the dose was very small when you convert it to a human equivalent dose.
