To consider: if you could read every book in existence, watch every movie and show, experience every path through every trail, see through the eyes of every person - as if time had all just happened at once - how would you think? What wou

You're very knowledgeable, this is great. Is there any automated tech on the market you've seen to do the spotting for you, so you can dynamically ground drones as air conditions change? Also, are you piloting all these manually

So what you're saying is to some extent everything's made up and the points don't matter, so maybe we can rope animals into this same messy web of loose promises too!

If you want to talk facts, then those critics are similarly on weak grounds and critiquing feelings more than facts. There has been no actual sign of scaling ceasing to work, in medium after medium, and most of their criticisms are issues

It is honestly shocking how different people can be, even within programming. Been finding LLMs very useful for pair programming and low-effort spin-ups of projects I would just never do without the tools. Frankly, I'm waiting any da

We'd need contextual tracking of what the whales are actually doing/communicating to match to the songs. An LLM would be excellent at finding any correlated patterns between the language and actions, and then mapping those to sim

Don't worry, we've had a pretty pisspoor track record with fellow humans too. There's always room to turn it around

Sigh The problem is so big, and so deeply rooted in our culture and history as predators/scavengers, that I just don't want to even go down this line of thinking - it's very very likely true animals have clear consciousness

Tall order. Github stars are maybe closest these days? - Maybe should be an aggregator-aggregator, using github stars and all the various metrics/lists you can find, making formal affiliations with those sites so there's no ill-w

hahaha okay actually in retrospect/closer inspection, I do think some teachers tried to instill these probability proofs from a different angle - though obviously it did not stick long past the testing, and I never thought of it as a f

Evil pays well in the short term. Reddit has been squeezing users and making their app unusable for quite some time. Lack of competent alternative and the difficulty of "porting" the data already there is all that's keepin

Reddit sells the illusion of meaningful discussion in an online forum. Too bad that illusion is transparent, but where else can you get one - besides maybe here?

Damn. Impressed to see something this fundamental that never made it into my computer science postgrad education (and judging by the depths and difficulty of it, might not for a while!) Seems like a powerful technique that scales to cover

I guess I'm referring here to the unit test standards that seem typically employed by automated code review frameworks - i.e. "100% coverage" checkers. With those, any subsequent change to the system requires understanding a

I would generally double whatever your expectations are for the initial feature development. Tests are essentially a second implementation from a different angle running in parallel, hoping the results match. Every feature change means ch

Reminder that a specialized AI chip designed to just maximize the transformer architecture would only require decades-old tech that's well spread out at this point and far simpler to manufacture. Basically as many XOR matrix multiplic

I actually suspect one of the new most popular mediums will be actors on a theatre stage doing live performances to a live AI CGI video being rendered behind them - similar to musicians in a live orchestra. It would bring together the nost

I think it's fair to be impressed with Sora as the next stage of AI video, yet not be too surprised or consider it some insurmountable leap from the public pieces we've seen of AI video up to this point. We've always been ju

Again, your problem is seeing the rich capital dominated business market as the only market. There's an inherent market your skills will always be useful to: yourself. Base survival, maintaining your home, caring for family and friend

Sounds like we need a public option funding and training foundational models and fueling public research which can outpace corporate models in money and brainpower. This could be a thing if governments weren't horrifically corrupted

Actually, you can live-render around 12fps videos on a consumer gaming rig using software installable in a night ($3k). Not as fancy internally-consistent videos as these, but still impressive - and that's just an algorithm update and

Or appeased with a tiny fraction of the total gains - just enough to keep a middle class happily with their basic little toys while wealth inequality grows. This could easily be the same, except the toy is "you don't have to work

What? You're serious? Script => Video baseline. Take a frame of any character/prop/room/etc you want to remain consistent, and one shitty photoshop and it's part of the new scene. Incredibly overstating . Tha

It is his (parents') choice in terms of whether he reaches for the tools that are just lying around right there . We can run AI video on consumer hardware at 12fps that is considerably less consistent than this one - but that's

Way too much certainty, bud. And too much deference to the AI Company Gods. As utterly impressive as this is - unless they have perfect information security on every level this technique and training will be disseminated and used by copiou

Don't worry, AI will wash all that away. Nothing says simplicity like an incomprehensible black box!

While "add a black box complexity extremely resource intensive AI to sort out the dependency trees" is somewhat of a tragic answer to the problem, I think it's the real one we're gonna get - and we'll still be bette
