Unlike with all of the human-coded software which is all bug-free and "well-designed" (whatever that means). Maybe the author should have had the LLM write the article while they wrote software instead. Play each to their strengt

For anyone wanting to re-experience the beta-like nature of the original Minecraft, I suggest minetest. There are quite a few game modes, but the one that I tend to like the most is called MineClonia, since it fairly closely follows the ge

In my experience, futo is actually pretty good at just knowing the right punctuation to use.

If you're putting in all of the effort to make the material make sense to you, what is the role of the educator? If the way to learn things is to read a book a bunch of times, what value does my tuition money get me? A syllabus? The

Self-driving cars would be really cool but it seems like a long way to reach when you could invest that money in public transport and rail. Its not as convenient or sexy but I bet you'd get actual results: people able to... go places

It seems that any company that both A) stores user data and B) is sufficiently successful will predictability sell that data for profit.

Seems bad... Though I don't think I'm informed enough to know exactly why. The NSA is just coded in my brain as Generally Not Trustworthy. The addition of Larry Summers has me feeling a similar way. My general feeling is that t

I have a really hard time understanding the use case for something like this. Stuff that I want to remember I just write down or reference something like my browser history or recently opened files. It's very low tech for sure but it w

I can't understand the "x is bad so y isn't a concern" line of argumentation. Or the "x was already a problem so why are we wasting time worrying about x * z" thing. Can't more than one thing be bad at a

I'm not sure who you're arguing with since I didnt make any claims like the one you're refuting. Unless this is a pithy way of asserting (on a hunch) that there is no harm caused by constant distraction (in which case, you s

Doing problem sets seems... more useful to a human brain's development than the mere distraction of social media, no? Schooling can definitely be improved (I personally hated school) but that seems like an orthogonal concern to the ha

Is it really so bad for human brains to just "be" without needing constant distraction? Is it possible that a constant need for distraction is actually contributing to things like ADHD? It seems generally accepted that less dist

This more accurately captures my feelings than GP. I'm not worried about what _I'll_ do with tech. I'm worried about what the worst of us will do.

People were already killing each other for thousands of years so introducing tanks was no big deal, I guess. To say nothing of nuclear weapons.

This gives me a lot of anxiety but my only recourse is to stop paying attention to AI dev. Its not going to stop, downside be damned. The "We're working super hard to make these things safe" routine from tech companies, who

I feel this. I don't think I'm bad at the job but I feel like most jobs I would want to do are being rapidly targeted by AI efforts. It seems like the safest jobs are ones I don't want to do (I.e. manual labor, etc.)

As a config addict, I fully recognize that thr time I spend looking for new tools and tweaking my configs isn't exactly "productive". But its a hobby that synergizes very nicely with my career and generally has the side effe

Makes sense. But I don't think this actually answers OPs question. Google is swimming in money, less so wrt good will.

Based on the way consumers have behaved over my 30-odd years of life, I seriously doubt they will care enough about the fates of voice actors, developers or any other folks who are mistreated or discarded in the project of creating yet anot
