Everything. A single prompt will generate a full-length, high quality movie.

One person will be able to spend a few weeks or months to produce a high quality movie using AI generated or AI accelerated visuals and audio.

AI will never replace key aspects of high quality movies, although it's not quite clear yet which aspects. It could be writing, acting, music, or something else.

AI will never replace most aspects of high quality movies.

Society will rebel against AI in movies; it doesn't matter how good AI gets, most people will not watch movies touched in any way by AI.

Is there such a thing as a "HN Vote" post? Because this would be a great vote to put on the front page. The question would be "How much of the production will AI be doing in the movie/TV industries in 10 years?" and

What I would like to see is a reliable distinction of different types of panics. In the environments where software I write is typically run, panics due to heap allocation failure are generally acceptable and rarely an indication of fragili

The standard library has a significant amount of code that panics, so a `no_panic` crate attribute would currently only work for crates that don't depend on the standard library. I imagine most interesting crates depend on the standard

Since around the start of the Internet, there has been a steady decline in the number of banks and credit unions in the US. [1] They have mostly consolidated with other financial institutions. The shrinkage seems attributable to customers m

People who behave this way are spammers and I mark their emails as spam. It's a small gesture, but it feels good to help identify the spammers.

Many businesses can be profitable without deception, but can Honey in particular can be profitable without deception? I'm not so sure. It seems like they have been deceptive about their core business from the start.

I don't mean to disagree, but I think it's worth pointing out that with today's tech, it wouldn't be difficult for an attacker to also scan the stickers and print them out on sticker paper using a color printer, all in m

I'm not contradicting you, but it appears that the suicide rate hasn't changed since 2018. See this interactive chart and switch the Injury Type to Suicide: https://wisqars.cdc.gov/fatal-injury-trends/ That c

You don't need to be the copyright owner. All you need is a license from the copyright owner. It can't hurt to contact Ian Bell and see what you can negotiate. http://www.iancgbell.clara.net/ Edit: never mind, it

That is a remarkably good argument. Well done, I'm convinced that this paper has little substance after all.

Another way to put it: try to perform a skill you have never practiced. For example, if you've never played the piano or tried to read sheet music, see how long it takes you to play a few notes correctly. It's complex enough that

LoRa sounds like a good idea for water sensing in particular. Water catches all radio signals at 2.4 GHz and turns the waves into heat (that's why microwave ovens work, after all), so spread-spectrum transmission seems like a good way

A third option is to set up a Wireguard service and expose the web UI only through the VPN. I use the Wireguard app to connect my phone to my VPN. This solution seems very safe to me. Are there risks I'm not thinking of?

I think the question we're grappling with is whether token prediction may be more tightly related to symbolic logic than we all expected. Today's LLMs are so uncannily good at faking logic that it's making me ponder logic its

Exactly. We have a beautiful tool that can maintain an unbroken historical record without being a burden... and then we use it to rewrite history? Nooooo!!

Exactly. The right thing to do is study each dependency and decide whether the reward of having the problem solved quickly is worth the many risks of adding dependencies. I'll acknowledge here that there seems to be a significant diffe

I am deep in the Python ecosystem, and I love Python, but I have to admit that Python has the same issue. Reviving a medium-size project after 4 or more years usually means I have to catch up on a lot of new surprising deprecations. That&#x

The only owner of this project is "Gliim LLC" and it's written in C with cryptic commit messages. This looks dangerous. If this is an honest project and not an attempt to inject malware into other people's projects, you

Why do you say that? Their solution of using shared memory (structured as a ring buffer) sounds perfect for their use case. Bonus points for using Rust to do it. How would you do it? Edit: I guess perhaps you're saying that they don&#x
