Is this really all that old? The Levallois technique has been found in India dating to 385,000 years ago. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2018/01/31/5821022... .

That’s exactly what a union is, a way to force the market to deal with a collective and buck wage lowering market forces. It involves putting gatekeeping licensing in place and making that license a legal requirement for any work done by th

That’s never going to happen unless they unionize. People are not going to voluntarily turn down jobs as a collective everywhere at the same time in mass numbers.

If you are viewing the image on your browser on a website, you are making a local copy. That’s not unauthorized.

Why do you have to prove that? There is no replication (except in very rare cases), how someone draws a line should not be copyrightable.

Maybe it’s based on Gemini Ultra whose benchmarks seem to beat GPT4? It not out until later this quarter though so we’ll have to wait and see.

I was watching the live stream and they mentioned they couldn’t make contact and were waiting for 30 mins. Their telemetry also showed the craft upside down. But it looks like I’m wrong!

Anecdotal evidence can be misleading. I went to India and saw a literal pile, 7 ft high and maybe 10 ft in diameter of emeralds casually “stored” in a corner of a room but I don’t think India produces all that many emeralds (it’s primarily

I remember the exact opposite. People were saying it’s just a bigger iPod touch, didn’t have a full fledged OS etc. Most online discussion said it would be a complete failure.

They really should use solar arrays to pump the water back. If there’s no sun, you can always just flush it like they’re doing now.

Maybe I’m not a good judge but OpenAI’s voices sound very natural to me and seem better than Eleven labs.

What’s the text to speech generator that chatGPT uses? It’s the most impressive one I’ve heard so far.

They have loyal devs and a monetizable ecosystem for devs exactly because they have their policies in place. Apple doesn’t cut corners with short term thinking like your comment.

Well it’s kind of silly to say an AI is replicating my style when your style is “I only use purple and yellow and thick black outlines in my work”.

Well that’s a stupid argument. A good argument is that AI is in accordance with copyright law already since there are no reproductions. In the rare cases where there are reproductions, they can be DMCA taken down like we already do with pos

That’s the rational way of doing things. But emotionally humans strive more for the honor and glory that comes from making a big discovery so I’m happy with the status quo.

This is why I really hope some highly popular consumer product (smartphone, smart glasses etc.) starts having high quality LiDAR sensors so we have a lot of 3D training data.

Good. I wish Google did this too. The government should have access to the latest and greatest and the best minds in the country. I don’t want our men to die because they didn’t have the best technology.
