Aren't there better ways to manage the debt than crashing trade? Print a ton of money and deliberately cause inflation, that wouldn't be as harsh as tariffs. Print the money and use it to buy foreign currency, that would weaken th

Or the camera - think about how it puts all those portrait painters out of a job, and it makes anyone who can click a button think they’re some kind of genius artist, and it’s ruining the environment with all the toxic waste produced from d

What is the cause of Europe always needing a top-down effort for a European cloud, a European payment provider, a European Facebook and Google, a European X, Y, Z rather than European companies filling these gaps naturally? It's a weal

You can chuck it into Cursor as a .mdc file so it knows how to write code for it, I assume.

Artists' main objection to AI seems to be that they think that people who use it are posers who are trying to claim that they're just as good as Rembrandt because they can type "beautiful painting, style of Rembrandt" in

"Will the application has a local repository of songs, will you use database to store songs?" This doesn't really sound like AI to me, maybe machine translation or something like that but I never see a model making nonsense g

He looks like the type to work in software (or at least some kind of white collar work) and live in the Bay Area - you wouldn’t really think of him as an oil rig worker, farmer or politician as your first thought. Maybe it could be moved in

I tried it and it’s not really possible since the Blueprint text representation is so ridiculously verbose. I’m not sure why they used a format that is so difficult to convert to text. I ended up using Angelscript to see if that works, and

Maybe SaaS APIs need some kind of standard, usage-based billing method to cope with a million different AI services calling all different APIs. It would be much easier to integrate loads of services at 0.08c per call through some common pay

I think it could be possible if you're using thinking tokens or via function calls - decide all URLs that will be mentioned while thinking (don't display this to the user), delay for a few seconds to test they exist, push that int

Crazy. I did an accelerator back with these guys in 2018 when they were starting out. Definitely seemed like they were the most successful of the bunch at the time. The founders were very driven, I'm interested to see how it turns out.

I don't think it could ever be able to pay of the federal debt, the entire market cap of all cryptos is only a tenth of what the US federal government owes.

Even before they added the AI preview, they would take sentences that looked like answers to your query and display them at the top of the page verbatim.

If 95% of the population were still farmers (not anymore due to technological progress) those laws would never have been passed, and wouldn't have meant anything if they did because you're going to starve unless you put in the gru

My problem with the AI-generated images that most people use for their blogs isn't that they're AI-generated, it's that they're bad. People use, I think, mostly DALLE-3 to make these super-busy infographic type illustrat

Yes, I don't get this either. Isn't it just weighting the output in the direction of the synthetic data that was produced? Why not weight that data?

It's still 20x their GDP per capita - given that Greenland isn't really an independent country I would feel pretty tempted to switch overlords for twenty years of wages.

For the right price, America could probably it. There are only 56,000 Greenlanders, meaning that you could give each a million dollars at $56b, only about 1% of the federal budget. Do Greenlanders feel that attached to Denmark that they wou

The "International AirBnB Style" isn't of a place but it's definitely of a time, and that time was probably ten years ago to now. I think it's fading. It always feels like styles will be eternal until they go out of

I agree, they all look very similar. The more masculine man has a slightly narrower head I think and slightly different eye shape. The more feminine woman looks weird to me, a bit goblin-like with the cheeks and eyes. It would be more inter
