Renewables are cheap, until you hit a day without a lot of Sun or wind and you start running your death-inducing coal reactors.

I agree land use is not a major consideration here. But what about base load? You cannot guarantee proper weather and we currently don't have anywhere near battery capacity to store energy from renewable sources for a meaningful amount

Considering attractiveness is correlated with wealth, I wonder whether this could be merely a proxy for that. Not that I doubt attractiveness itself matters, just that it would be difficult to control for that and, at least from the abstrac

The article is very light on details. For example, it doesn't explain whether this Magi would also be a LLM and whether there are any relevant architectural differences to GPT 4.

Sorry but this isn't it. I doubt Google created something as powerful as ChatGPT and simply decided it wasn't better than their regular search. They would have shown it by now if so.

I would like to understand the role of quality vs quantity in these models. Is it better to train them on slight variations of what humans consider to be high quality input or just add a boatload of low quality input instead? If we somehow

Really? Can SQL queries do image recognition? How about self driving or, more recently, natural language processing?

Most famous people from that period are child rapists or worse (slavers, serial murderers, etc.). I don't care about Sade but this is not a great argument

If this is what happened, what explains the fact that some of these models performed great for about a year before decaying?

I've read Piketty, he calls for more regulation to address the issues associated with disparities in capital accumulation. He does not merely puts his hands in the air and predicts inescapable doom. The irony here is that Western capit

Those two are grest examples of companies being hit with huge fines or bans in the EU after their practices were discovered. Saying "capitalism" as if that's an argument is juvenile - by that logic we will soon be enslaved by

That's pretty much what having a boyfriend or girlfriend sounds like. Many people do it without even living in the same city. I don't get what would be controversial about it, perhaps the expectation that it has to evolve to somet

I also see that as the use case and would find it useful. However I feel this is somewhat low-budget so far coming from such a large company.

Maybe I'm stupid but what I gather from this is simply that this is a potential vector, not that it is currently an actual possibility. It's akin to saying using Bluetooth is dangerous because theoretically any data on my phone ca

Remarkably good. When using expert mode, I found it to be a value-add to ChatGPT, which I honestly didn't think would be the case. Congrats, depending on pricing I would pay for your tool.

I don't get it, even after I reset my phone it's still locked, and by default not sharing data via USB. What am I missing?

We already accept that a particular doctor, even if they are an expert, can miss a tumor that could be obvious to a second doctor.

As long as on average it performs better that should not be an issue.

We are in such a crazy point right now that this reddit post could have been written by an AI agent tasked with increasing their own relevance. I don't think it was the case but it is definitely possible.

This is an excellent and overlooked point. Everyone is talking about intellectual jobs being at risk - what happens when these college graduates are forced to do manual labor instead?

I like this logic because the writer is probably better at prompting, editing and reviewing, so there's definitely added value. But surely there's too much friction involved in having 10x more clients (think invoicing, customer ac

Thank you for the detailed answer. I understood perfectly what you meant and I think you are correct in your criticism. This is a sign of poor scholarship from Dawkins, I'm better off knowing about it. A small quibble, unrelated to you
