It's a label, not a ban. Just like sponsored content is not banned, but must be disclosed.

That's a much clearer line though, it's much simpler to know if you were paid to create this content or not. Use of AI isn't, especially if it's deep in some tool you used. Does blurring part of the image with Photoshop

> He's expressing what he cares about, is the parent's point And my point is that he used to care about inspiring stuff, now he spends all his time caring about useless culture wars.

Change likely wasn't the right word. Rather, Twitter "enables" him to be the worst version of himself, as you allude to. Point is, he's no longer focused on any big inspiring project and instead spends his days fighting

> To me that sounds like the same person as he is on social media. So randomly claiming someone's a pedophile is somehow "the same" as wanting to put a dome on Mars because it's inspiring? I honestly don't see ho

Not sure we're referring to the same "antics". You cannot deny that Elon has changed as a person ever since he got hooked on Twitter. A lot of his personality and how he acts these days is very much focused on trying to get t

It's how much text it can consider at a time when generating a response. Basically the size of the prompt. A token is not quite a word but you can think of it as roughly that. Previously, the best most LLMs could do is around 32K. This

In terms of following the prompt and generating visually interesting results, I think they're comparable. But the resolution for Sora seems so far ahead. Worth noting that Google also has Phenaki [0] and VideoPoet [1] and Imagen Video

I think more impressively, even in this seemingly worst case scenario where everything lined up as poorly as it could have, the car was still able to react quite aggressively and the situation ended only with minor scratches it seems? Hones

Now if only it actually supported multiple users where the automatic IPD adjustment would come in useful. Instead, every non-main user is a guest that has to go through he setup flow from scratch on every use...

180k people? That's not how many people were fired. 8k were fired, which is less than 0.5% of the company. Finding useful projects for that many people doesn't sound that ridiculous.

I was very confused at first too, and didn't understand the difference. As the other comments in the thread allude to though, this instead an LLM to allow for a much much larger number of combinations, which is the "neal.fun"

But isn't that just bad management / prioritization? Isn't the solution to just shuffle people to more useful projects instead of firing them? Especially at a company that hires general engineers who can work on any project,

> But is the Vision Pro like that as well? It's actually far worse. There's a single user and a "guest mode", but for AR/VR to work with, there's a calibration step, which means that the guest has to go thro

by ehsankia 3y ago
As long as the total number of pixels is less, I don't see what that has to be true, at least bandwidth wise? Compute wise, the vision might have to do slightly more to separate the buffer and composite them into the AR view in differe

That's another thing that I found strange. Why make the version you show the public so tiny, especially if you want to show off multiple people on it. I understand it's a prototype, but surely they can scale it up a bit more to a

From the video it kinda seemed like to people had to walk quite carefully, and it seemed a little awkward. I can't imagine it working well with a headset on your head in a virtual world not being able to see the real world. Most other

How does that work for moving the box then?

Exactly. It's literally called "insider trading". There's nothing "insider" about an customer discovering something about the company's product while using it. The source of the information was not from &q

I wonder if it's done locally or through the cloud. Some of the language around the release of Gemini Nano implies that it may be done locally? https://store.google.com/intl/en/ideas/articles/pixel-f

Absolutely. For the longest time I had this extension called "Comment Save" which saved anything you typed in a textarea. It doesn't seem to exist anymore, and I haven't been able to find a good replacement. I would also

Semi-related, there was a recent puzzle (part of an offshoot of the 2023 Mystery Hunt), which required you to decipher a really broken QR code by hand (too far for error correction to work). We ended up looking at all the guides listed in t

Right, that doesn't quite make sense. The previous layoff was all across the board and likely trimming lower rated engineers across the whole company. Wiping a specific team, with potentially top tier talent, makes no sense. Are we sur

But what's the point of posting numbers for it then? I can make you a browser engine that loads in 0ms by showing a blank page.

Not only that, but from the screenshot of Hackernews (which itself is an extremely simple website), it seems like it can't even do very basic HTML/CSS rendering either yet. It probably doesn't even pass ACID 1.

It's not a browser, it's a browser engine. So it would be a replacement for Chrome's engine (Blink) or Firefox's (Quantum).

If it's entertaining, great. If it isn't, then why would it do any better than all the other crappy videos? Just like photoshop doesn't magically make something look good, neither does this. You still need to have an interest
