No AI company has been reselling copyright data to my knowledge, it would be truly bizarre if they did that. What they have been doing, with some narrow exceptions where they have lost billions of dollars in court cases*, is not at all obvi

Because the legal system does, in fact, have teeth. And those teeth actually deploy pretty readily. Especially when the people whose trade secrets you would be violating are gargantuan companies with enough resources that the cost of a laws

That's not sufficient - consider the following pseudocode x = malloc(); if (opaque_cond()) free(x); if (other_opaque_cond()) use(x); Conditions can be opaque and non-analyzable due to rices theorem - in any turing comp

This is cool and will likely enable some cool tooling. I don't think a borrow checker is likely to be in that tooling. Borrow checking requires shaping the code, and all the dependencies, into easily analyzable (and at least in rust&#x

Safety is a feature of a system - yes. It's also a property of what it's against. A computer could be safe against being hacked but still be dangerously easy to drop on someones toe and break it. Safety [against something] is also

Ok yeah those boats look a lot more suited for this than the kind of canoes I'm used to, e.g. (no affiliation) https://www.esquif.com/en/canoe/prospecteur-17/ Looks and sounds like a blast!

If you're about to die of dehydration - and have been rehydrating with fresh water - you'll be low on salt too so a bit of seawater should in principle be in the right direction for both and help. In practice I wonder if your dige

Canoeing 15 meter waves!? I've bailed off of lakes at like 2 foot waves for fear of swamping (admittedly fully laden canoes, but still). Are you just using standard open canoes you'd use on a lake (potentially with some air bladde

It happened sometime between whenever we observed it and 2600 years ago. It's equally valid to say that light travels from there to here instantly (but takes twice as long on the outbound trip) or the reverse. Taking the average is jus

Apart from being a lot of work are you really gaining much at that point? Memory corruption can still take down both sides...

The comment you're replying to wasn't arguing rust > GCed languages (e.g. C# or whatever game dev language you are thinking of). It was arguing rust > non-GC non-safe languages (e.g. zig).

Oh I really did mean "anthropic" and "fable class" in that paragraph. Different people in Anthropic's position would do things differently. But they're them and I think there's pretty good reason to think

Maybe they'd get the same numeric improvements and bug fixes today (or maybe not, or maybe they'd get even more since the LLM isn't spending time rewriting correct code). But they wouldn't get a change to the structural

I'm not very familiar with Hylo, but I think it's in the opposite direction from rust than what I'm suggesting. I'm suggesting a language where there's no difference between Box<u32> and u32. &Vec<u8&

Eh... rust's safety isn't free, but not having it and wasting time on "oh I forgot to change this call site" also isn't free. On the whole I'd say the safety assists in iteration time. What costs rust in iter

1. There's no comparison - it's just showing a snapshot in time (apparently post port). You literally can't!? 2. Of your 8 comments on this site, 7 are spamming links to this site. I at least don't think that's ok.

Cost, the politics of the people involved, and that there would be no real need for secrecy around it (but lots of need for marketing) so we'd probably know about it. It frankly doesn't seem like it would be that useful either...

Yes, of course. Until Fable even the public had practically uncensored access to SOTA anthropic models (there were classifiers - but they were very hard to hit). And I'd have to double check but I'm pretty certain the public still

Not the person you're replying to, but I'd agree with them, and think house painting would be basically identical to building a bridge. The difference this comparison is capturing in my opinion is that of thinking up something new

No, that skin I scraped off on the sidewalk is not a human just because it has human DNA (and indeed, the cells in it are still alive, for a time). Similarly neither are embryos. A human is a collection of trillions of cells arranged in a p

Nowhere did I say anything about them being Swedish citizens - though I'll note if that distinction mattered at all (it doesn't) "most" wouldn't be good enough. I said they weren't necessarily Somali citizens.
