That's interesting. Why do you think they crashed? I wouldn't think a few gigs of swap would make that much difference unless there's something up with the OS code paths for a system with no swap.

It's also very possible that 99 cents is substantially below cost and the supermarket just wants a loss leader and/or to clear inventory.

I agree, but I think you're overestimating the difficulty of producing something edible. Not good , but edible .

AI competitiveness depends very strongly on whether AI will get better at creating coherent and usable video/audio/images, or not. The better it gets, and the more amenable to user control it gets in the fine details, the more it

I think the power concentration problem, the successor species problem, and the harmful content problem are not particularly aligned in how they would be solved. Am I correct in guessing you believe the power concentration problem is import

I'm not the GP, but one can believe that it's cheap pandering, and simultaneously that the three of them have merit outside of that pandering. It's not required to be all one or all the other.

It's not weird. One of them is piracy to play games, watch movies, and post throwaway memes. The other is for training generative models that directly compete with the creators of the pirated works and drop the value of human creative

That's an extremely expensive and impractical solution. EDIT: By "impractical" I mean that it doesn't help safety much, but does totally wreck US air travel for several years.

I was persuaded by this argument for most tech, but AI researchers really, really want to make humans obsolete. I'm reminded of the God of the Gaps argument - if you prove a supreme being exists by the existence of phenomena we can

I was bothered that the OP didn't make this distinction properly in their post. They instead gave the false dichotomy of "forgive and risk being stabbed" or "hold a grudge". Who knows. Probably it was just AI-genera

It's very, very possible for public transport to be overloaded to the point where people have to wait for another train because there's just no room left. Some NYC subway lines are like that routinely during rush hour.

One of the things LLMs can't imitate is having serious stake in the game, and therefore responsibility for the outcome. The PM has a stake - if they get this stuff wrong frequently, their job is at risk. The LLM provider is probably no

If you ask for a thousand novel theories, and all the answers look good but only five can possibly work, you haven't done much better than talking to physics cranks.

Landlords will undercut left and right because the benefits are local while the drawbacks are mostly distributed to competitors.

If holding back 20% of the units in every building drives up prices by 30% - this is completely possible in something like real estate where supply is so inflexible - then each individual landlord might have a motivation to defect, but the

If it's widely believed that other landlords use the same pricing system as you, then that's exactly how landlords can refuse to negotiate.

IANAL but I don't think a court case hinges whether OpenAI is actually open; neither open-source nor closed-source are directly required to fulfill the charter. I think it would be about the extent to which the for-profit's action

Did they donate, or did they buy equity in the for-profit arm? I thought it was the latter, and that Azure credits were part of that deal?

That wasn't the donors' doing at all, though. If anything it was an illustration of the powerlessness of the donors and the non-profit structure without the force of law backing it up.

There's plenty of reliable evidence. It's just not conclusive evidence. But a lot of people including AI researchers now think we are looking at AGI in a relatively short time with fairly high odds. AGI by the OpenAI economic-viab

This is not a worthwhile trade. The person sending the PR should not send LLM code that they can't vouch for, under the expectation that reviewers will find any vulnerabilities. That's just dumping the work onto the reviewers.

I'm guessing the GP expected them to tell them something useful about compensation earlier in the process, so that neither party would waste time evaluating a deal that couldn't possibly work.
