That assumes that hardware was/is/will be more expensive than.. simply scaling up data collection and training? Which seems like a very bad assumption, I'm not even sure it was ever true and is getting less and less true.

You rely on a moving camera, microphones and vibrations all together. Driven by a supposedly more advanced meatware than what tech can create today, so that it can properly reason even with faulty/missing signals.

It's not like Apple would frown about the idea of an action having "no intuitive visual associated with it". On iOS, you can scroll to the top by pressing on the status bar as one example.

Reality is. Consciousness is.. questionable. I have one. You? I don't know, I'm experiencing reality and you seem to have one, but I can never know it. Computations on the other hand describe reality. And unless human brains som

Who says it is a subset of computer science? But computational models are possibly the most universal thing there is, they are beneath even mathematics, and physical matter is no exception. There is simply no stronger computational model th

To the best of our knowledge, we live in a physical reality with matter that abides by certain laws. So personal beliefs aside, it's a safe starting assumption that human brains also operate with these primitives. A Turing machine is a

Grep and vim are a much smaller magnitude than Linux, so don't mix the two. And you do pay for Linux indirectly, it ain't written by some developer in their basements out of their good heart for a long time. It's written by I

So it either drains battery and gets significant delays (as per ntfy's own docs), or it still uses Google's solution. There is no free lunch.

Turing machines have a well-defined input, and output if they halt. So no, they are absolutely not useless, they are just "single-shot" models of computation. Certain software fit that model very nicely (e.g. compilers), others le

It's absolutely trivial to make a very strict sandbox - just a simple, mathematical Turing machine is 100% safe. The hard part is having actual capabilities, and only WASI (which is much smaller than WASM) helps here, and it's not
