This house is 80 square meters and cost 150,000€ to build. You can build a regular house of the same size in the US for the same, or less.

I find it hard to believe those are the only two options: buy and sell user data, or fail.

I personally wouldn't want a robot running a million times faster than a human down the side walk. The argument that it's running just like a human runs isn't convincing to me.

Yes, I've been saying this. It's like if I invented a robot that can run, and then suddenly people started saying it shouldn't be allowed to run down the sidewalk. What's the difference between a human running down the s

Does it really take four hours to sharpen an axe? I've never done it.

Deliveries are still up since Q1 2023, so I guess not.

This started out on the Something Awful forums back in the early 2000s. They made a few more after this one was such a hit. I joined in one year, probably at about age 18, using a bootleg copy of Photoshop that I got at a LAN party. My cont

I feel like we've all accidentally dabbled in self-harm enough to make up our minds on it. I've stubbed my toe and wacked my elbow on enough sharp objects to know it's not for me.

What if I want to look something up without speaking my search terms out loud? It would be good if I could carry around a small companion device I could type my search into, if I wanted some privacy.

I did a bit of data scraping for fun in the past, but I was never quite sure of the legality of what I was doing. What if I was breaking some law in some jurisdiction of some country? Was someone going to track me down and punish me? OpenAI

Yes, but that level of nuance isn't offered by most people. Most people (on HN, at least) will tell you that if your results are bad, it's because you're using it wrong. Or at least they would have before Claude 3 was release

Every time I've mentioned having problems with GPT4 I've been told that I mustn't be prompting it correctly. Now suddenly Claude 3 comes out and everyone is admitting GPT4's shortcomings.

You're both missing my point, which is that the original poster's "not-Ai music system" would have still needed Ai at its core in order to replicate human voices with tiny instrument samples. How else would it know what

How did you get it to sample those instruments in just the right order and with the right timing?

There's actually three main catalysts. It's kind of funny that you only think there's two :) Although I don't blame you for not knowing the third one. It's really only known by people with a deep and sophisticated k

Adding before:2020 to the end a query is a fairly good approximation. Note that this will become less useful over time, however, as Google prunes old results from its index.

This isn't fair. If I make a video using AI, who is to say whether it's anymore real than a video taken with a camera? You think what a camera captures is reality?

The input field at the top of bing.com says "ask me anything". Would you also call that a question box, because of what it literally says inside it? Or would you call it a search box, based on our existing context of what bing.com
