They exist, but I don't think there's currently any new models for sale in the US. I think they're generally called "series hybrid," or sometimes it's marketed as an electric vehicle with range extender. I beli

I think you're right, but the people investing in AI seem to believe otherwise.

One reason is that it means "general AI" is likely farther away. If it were close, they wouldn't need to spend resources on sucking pennies from their free users.

I feel like the event was something that happened to a plane. That said, I wouldn't think sunlight would be penetrating to the chips running the plane.

Just as a heads up, this is likely illegal in many US states. (Legality is not morality - but it's good to know what the law is before you might break it).

"Change kinds" is something that only people who believe in a rather literal view of the Christian bible say, and only because that's the popular fundamentalist argument against evolution. Fundamentally, it's impossible

Many people who are losing weight are doing so because they're concerned about their health, right? Especially heart health.

I haven't read this paper, but for the "25" paper, it was a longitudinal study that stopped observing people at 25. The result "brain continues to develop up to at least age 25" was misinterpreted as "stops dev

At the risk of stretching the metaphor - fat is useful, too. In animals, a layer of fat will help you withstand 'lean times' of less nutrition or higher work. Run the body too hard without fat, and you burn muscle for short-term g

To some people, it's more like "99% shellfish free." I personally don't mind that the cellular radio is closed-source, but I'm also not allergic to shellfish.

There's a lot of fully open models made by hobbyists and some by researchers. If you've only heard of this one, it's likely because this one is the closest to being competitive with closed models.

Gotcha, thanks for the explanation. I think that personally, I agree with your stance that it's a bad kind of thing for government to do, but in practice I find that I'm in favor of the effects of this specific law. (Perhaps I nee

Competent digital watermarks usually survive the 'analog hole'. Screen-cam resistant watermarks have been in use since at least 2020, and if memory serves, back to 2010 when I first starting reading about them, but I don't re

I'm not sure that's correct. I'm not an expert, but there's a lot of literature on digital watermarks that are robust to manipulation. It may be easier if you have an oracle on your end to say "yes, this image has&#

Also probably good for the people trying to counterfeit money with a printer, better not to end up in jail for that.

In fact, "too many" is the exact point at which it becomes excessive. :P

It seems obvious to me that we just don't mind delegating this task some of the time, as long as we largely agree with the results. I don't think you need an appeal to authoritarianism to appreciate a forum that isn't 80% pen

There's a lot of difference between the planet ending in 4 billion years, and widespread famine in the next 100 years. It's sort of similar to somebody saying "hey, you're bleeding really bad, maybe we should get you to

I think you may have misread. They stated that they'd be willing to go from 90% correct to 10% correct for this tradeoff.

Okay, you clearly don't comprehend your own analogy and have resorted to having an LLM argue for you.

The "Model card leak" point is worth negative points though, as it's clearly a misreading of reality.

The github page claims "PrinceJS fits in a tweet," but also that it's 2.8kB after gzip compression. Are tweets 2800 characters now? (Genuine question, I haven't used the place in years.

Sure, there's no guy with a gun forcing you to read it. But we're on a site about sharing content for intellectual discussion, right? So when people keep posting the same garbage without labeling it, and you figure it halfway thou

If you can't be bothered to spend even an hour writing something up, especially allegations of this magnitude, then chances are you know it's actually not an article with any content worth reading.
