There's more on Instagram than photos. Lotta meme pages, lot of people just uploading random screenshots and photos they downloaded that have been turned over a million times. Heck, all it takes is someone downloading their own photo f

Yes, but it's 2% that are still using browsers without full support for WebP according to caniuse, which takes its numbers from StatCounter. https://caniuse.com/webp Note that I'm looking at "all tracked,&quo

Sometimes respected, largely ignored. URLs very often don't map directly to files served.

Indeed, why might one upload a photo to the web in a format made for distributing images on the web?

App support has very little to do with the operating system. OSes by and large will preview it just fine.

Often when you're calling something "manual" you're taking something off the automated happy path to tediously and slowly wind the thing through its complex process by hand. The difference between manual coding and human

No, the control group was instructed to "use any methods they would typically employ at home." So ChatGPT is no better than WebMD.

Not good at all. It's not a strong enough signal. For instance, LLMs are absolute dogshit at completing Gleam, even if given files with the exact pattern they need to mimic just lines away, or given explicit instructions on common mist

Sure, they have a legitimate function. So do ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine. But they exist in a very particular and not-at-all reputable advertising niche. One that is noteworthily and heavily represented here. An hour is a significant

As long as they all finish their jobs in time, they shouldn't run any slower at all. They run, they complete, they wait for the next frame. If resources are constrained enough to shrink that wait to 0 or below, then yes, everything slo

Is it? I don't see any sources linked to any studies at all in the description. I do however see an extensive list of affiliate and sponsor links to everything from sketchy supplements to anti-aging clinics featuring blood analysis to

Sure. Things change over time. Is there a reason to believe they'd be different in such a way that this would be more useful than in today's landscape? I haven't seen such a forecast myself.

I think it'd even be easier to coerce standard autocomplete into demonstrating Turing completeness. And without burning millions of dollars of GPU hours on training it.

by jdiff 1y ago
Why do you believe that is the case? Aren't standard, naturally-occurring social media echo chambers far more likely?

If your focus is that sensitive to disruption, an unfiltered list of internet links is also likely to be disruptive, especially with the quality of search these days.

"Somewhat" is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting. Fakery has gone from handcrafted in small batches (or at worst, produced through much effort in sweatshops) to fully automated and mass produced.

I don't think this would solve the problem, unfortunately. AI can certainly be coerced into reproducing an existing image, leaving plenty of room for probable deniability.

As long as the AI people stay in their lane and work on their own projects, they're not getting yelled at. This is ignoring that AI has enough proponents to have enough projects of significant size. And even if they're getting sho

Why would we not? If they were so effective, their effectiveness would be apparent, inarguable, and those making use of it would advertise it as a demonstration of just that. Even if there were some sort of social stigma against it, AI has

The crazy thing is that people think that a model designed to predict sequences of tokens from a stem, no matter how advanced the model, to be much more than just "really good autocomplete." It is impressive and very unintuitive

Video embeds can be made to autoplay, browsers typically don't block them if the video is muted, and JS can be used to nudge them along if they do. With the automatic conversion of GIFs into video, this also isn't a property that

GIF is a format from the 1980s that has not changed or improved one bit since. It's limited to a 256-color palette per frame, which on top of looking bad, will massively bloat your file size as a common strategy to make it look less ba

I'd be interested to understand why. From my perspective, it'll only get peoples hopes up before letting them down, which does not associate good emotions with your product.

You'll also want to remove the GitHub link. It's been a long time since 2021.

Git repos on software forges are structured, polite, easy to process, and are ubiquitous. You can provide additional information very easily with simple existing tools to enhance learning. Like I said, the web's the wild west. It'

Sure, they could. But why would they? It's the wild west out there and there's barely anything you don't already have. Maybe add support for some of the larger code forges, but anything smaller than that is too small to bothe

There's a 7B mentioned in the chat arena ELO graph, I don't see any other references to it though.

Don't disagree at all. It was never promised that LLMs could do what he's trying to do. But just because he's holding it wrong doesn't mean that he's not holding it.

That is what vibe coding is. The tweet says "It's not too bad for throwaway projects" but that does not limit the definition, it only limits the advisable application of it.
