It'll be difficult for any single company to compete with Tesla on scale and the AI we have so far rewards scale like no other technology before it. Yes Waymo exists, but the amount of training data they have is a few orders of magnitu

I have been using email for as long as email was a thing and I still managed to blackhole important emails with filters not too long ago.

There's another tantalizing possibility, that it varies over time rather than across space.

Did I write invent? If you revisit what I wrote, you'll find that I agree with you. There was vigorous debate about a wrong and an unknown thing (both was basically wrong) and it took Einstein's intuition and the new GR math to tu

If you could get there with minor modifications of the current state of the art, yes. My point is that you likely can not.

Interestingly, more often than not it happens the other way. Some once-in-a-generation scientist has an intuition that turns out to be true and mathematically elegant. It gets proven experimentally years or decades later. Relativity was exa

Not necessarily. You'd be correct given hidden variables. But we know pretty convincingly that quantum anything does not have hidden variables. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell%27s_theorem

We are likely going to find out that both are unfixably faulty. It'll take either the next Einstein or some groundbreaking experimental observation to get there in my opinion. If it was possible to incrementally fix these theories, the

The comparison, for the purpose of this article, is not against Mercedes or Volvo or Toyota software or even Android auto/carplay. It's against old fashioned tactile buttons for essentials.

Tesla software is in no way a joy to use. I had rented one and it was infuriatingly bad. I'm sure people can get used to it, but people can get used to literally anything. The map looks like it really wants to be in Star Trek more than

Because, we have pretty convincing historical precedent that 'just following orders' does not work as a defense when your government does something indefensible.

Please read ‘How to Stop Time’ by Matt Haig It’s a beautiful short novel exploring this idea.

Maybe you should read the article? :) What failed was extracting verbatim quotes, not summarizing. If you want an LLM to do verbatim anything, it has to be a tool call. So I’m not surprised.

Yes, I find looking at vibe coded stuff interesting when they solve a worthy problem. No amount of denial will roll back the technology that millions can use now, that makes it realistic to produce in a day software that would take at least

Given that the ones that surfaced on the frontpage were pretty interesting, vibe coded or not, I’d say the voting mechanism is working as a good filter.

That's exactly why I love it. Happy to have an unambitious reliable workhorse where the battery lasts two days. I'd actually be happier if it was even less ambitious, and made the graphics bits less powerful. But that would likely
