I find the words consumption and content problematic. They encourage you to look at the world in a certain way. What would happen to your world view if you step outside the confines of those words, defined by advertisers who don't care

No, it is not all just ‘content’ which is roughly the same and can be consumed like a snack. That’s a word used by people who think thoughts, feelings and stories are just carriers for advertising and selling you things. Words matter, don’t

Re speechwriters, he’d never get another job if he didn’t say that. AI has replaced neither full tech roles nor speechwriters. I think that’s a good example of the kind of trivial error humans make all the time when not rereading/editi

Definite ‘work stuff’ because most work stuff is read by colleagues, otherwise why was it written?

Speech writers do not write in the voice of someone else, they create the public image of say a president who is inarticulate and make them seem polished and articulate, if anything they lend their voice and ideas to someone else. That’s

I don’t think a $2k phone is anywhere near mass market, esp given the likely downturn ahead.

This particular exploit belongs something between points 2 and 3 in your list and was more about processing data with a known algorithm and known key for the dataset that nobody had tried, so I'd say it is less impressive than a lot of

Using an existing published key, which people hadn’t tried because the message was sent before the key was supposed to be used. This headline is misleading.

Because Apple has always treated its developers so well! Vision Pro will be cancelled at some point, it’s just nowhere near popular enough and never will be - the air has gone out of that VR bubble. I wouldn’t be surprised if duo is also ca

It is not in fact close to zero, it is significant inflation, particularly as they tend to float over the target (3-4%). At 2% over just 25 years money loses 60% of its value. That is not insignificant, and of course with higher rates it lo

You are erasing yourself in doing this, not improving your writing. If you want to improve your writing, read more.

The more important question - how would you actually get LLM agents to follow the instructions in your ever-growing CAPA reliably? It’s all very well having a list of actions to avoid but that doesn’t help if your agents won’t reliably foll

Fed policy is explicitly controlled inflation (2% target).

There is one obvious choice here, the policy is inflation and always has been.

I don’t think so, it is at best a proxy war on the Europe side at present. They are supporting Ukraine. On the Russian side however they are carrying out brazen attacks in EU member states and crossing air and maritime boundaries. Whether t

When OpenAI (including Altman, Brockman etc) stop talking about AGI, we can all stop talking about AGI. I'd happily do so. Currently their actions completely contradict their claims of emergent intelligence.

by grey-area 10d ago
It's the peak of hubris to assume that human brains are the only way to attain intelligence. At the very least there probably are or have been other forms of intelligence with a different biological structure on other planets, and it

If they need capital in the short term and were anywhere close to AGI, they could easily generate it, by spinning up their incredibly capable and intelligent agents to generate capital through doing useful work. They could also fire entire

Well, if there was an emergent consciousness in the billion transistors, then yes, it'd have feelings, just as there are feelings in a billion neurons connected in complicated ways. IMO we're clearly nowhere near any sort of int

It’s pocket change compared to the money that could be made with real AGI. This move tells us they don’t think they’re anywhere near AGI, directly contradicting their bombast and puffery on the subject.

None of this would be necessary if they thought they were actually anywhere near AGI...hmm.
