Yup, I think this is the pretty much describes the limitation of today's AIs. They are gigantic statistics machines at best. It's still amazing how far we can get with this technique, but we know where they stop getting better.

This is just a personal viewpoint, but I think the era of "just ship it" will be gone after a decade or so. * Software "development" skill will become so common and cheap that simple tools won't get any market. * Th

Plus, people seek different values from their work, and even those values also change over time. So, yeah, what really matters is the number of data points. Still, Google is obviously not the hacker-driven company it used to be 10 years ago

Welp, devotion plays the largest role when it comes to enjoying something, and paying for an album already means the person is already devoted into it. Devotion allows juicing out more fun from the same item.

GraphQL does solve its problems. It's often very fun to use, and can save a lot of efforts if adopted correctly. However, no matter how good or practical it is, you should mind that it's not "technology" after all. It&#x

I've just skimmed, but the paper is quite unkind about its internal details (which is very typical for mathies, hahaha). I think the algorithm is non-exact. Say, Theorem 1.1 explicitly mentions probability: > There is an algorithm t

No, because DALL-E is only doing statistics, so training based on other DALL-Es doesn't add anything fundamentally new to the dataset. I want to point out that most people actually get creativity wrong . It's an unfortunate truth

Creativity is not challenged here, because it's human who created all those base materials, all those styles, and all those biases. DALL-E simply picks up and mix those biaes, images, and styles, all based on human instruction. Ideas a

Why do we stop at texture, where we can generate the whole set of models? Seriously, tho, we need these for VR, which is all about copying everything in the real world into virtual worlds with some twists.
