Are the numbers wrong? That's the only relevant thing here. Also, humans do use em dashes, just FYI.

Once again, the question at hand isn't whether something is conscious, it's whether something has personhood . And I'm not arguing that Claude has personhood. The point is that Anthropic is regularly making arguments that

WSL is literally the Linux kernel running in a VM, so WSL is actually closer. But you can have a Linux kernel running in a VM on macOS as well, and while it doesn't have something like WSL built-in, it provides enough foundation for ot

I wouldn't call it seamless. Zero-configuration, yes, but performance issues make it impossible to do many things across the FS boundary in practice. I run Linux in Lima VMs regularly on macOS for development, and I find that it works

I can't speak for others but IMO the only reason to run models locally right now is privacy - i.e. you don't trust any of the cloud providers to not look at your prompts. Price-wise the market is extremely competitive and cheap mo

I don't see how any of this follow. Yes, the LLMs will learn the "meaning" (here narrowly defined as relative configuration in the embedding space) of vectors that correspond to tokens in whatever tokenizer is used to feed in

There have been numerous studies by now showing that most people cannot reliably distinguish "slop" from the real thing, and that many genuinely prefer the slop even.

The existing models "top out" not because they don't get better, but because it is uneconomical. What we do know is that a model "tops out" wrt training data - that is, for a model of a given size, there's only

Why would being organic or not matter for the purpose of deciding whether it is slavery? What matters is whether the models have personhood. Anthropic statements imply that it is a possibility, so if we take them at face value then their ot

The title of the article is "No, Artificial Intelligence Is Not Conscious". I'd say that's making the argument.

With Rust macros it's also possible to bolt on proper design by contract into the language.
226.
by int_19h 5mo ago
Technically true, but unsafe Rust is much harder to deal with because it makes assumptions (sometimes very non-obvious) regarding aliasing that Zig does not. You might think you can avoid problems by using T* rather than T&, but every a

Are they thrilled when innocent people are executed? Because you can't have death penalty without that part.

If they don't like it, we could have individual punishment but they have to surrender qualified immunity. Deal?

Thing is, Silverlight and Windows Phone 7 were already two steps that made developers go WTF. There was WPF, hot off the press and obviously very promising (but also obviously requiring a lot of polish; I don't think it was truly ready

Not the military, the IRGC. Which is a religiously indoctrinated military. So it would still be a theocracy, same as before, but now also run by people who are conditioned to believe that more violence is always a solution to any problem.
