Great link, as the data is normalized to per watt.

The Zen of learned helplessness? Meh. We do ourselves a disservice by teaching an idealized picture of history. The world has been a terrible, awful place for nearly all of its existence. This right now is probably the golden age relative t

Just wait until the philosophical debates in games are with real AI. The next 20 years are going to be quite the wild ride, even in contrast to the past 20.

There's a difference between realizing one's self-image vs one's self-actuality. Most people when asked would say they wouldn't obey authority over their own conscience. And yet if actually put into Milgram's experi

I can't disagree more with many comments on here in response to if it's pissing away time playing video games. I mean, I guess I don't really play CoD vs more narrative games, so I can't speak to that specifically, but I

There's so much wrong with this piece it's mind blowing. I'm not sure where the author got the impression that the long tail promised sustainable income for long tail content creators - that was always antithetical to the con

They are, because the armchair critics are focusing on the edge case scenario of populating a mostly blank file in a blank project. Yes, demoing it in that setup, which the FAQ explicitly said not to do, will result in unusable IP infringem

The problem only occurs when you are using it to fill mostly empty files, particularly in empty projects. In an actual codebase the frequency you are getting 'snippets' is less than 1%, not 20%. This was discussed in the FAQ for t

Honestly though, it's not "fuck Google," it's "fuck Congress." Google needs to err on the side of caution with DMCA because it's the immediate response to the requests that provides the safe harbor to Goog

The area of AI and IP is going to be a hot topic in the next few years. There's already massive forces working on changing that stance for everything from copyright to patents.

Except it now has a setting that will prevent output that matches against the training set, and even before that verbatim output was only in cases of blank files, particularly in blank projects. This is a straw man with examples caused by g

You are wrong. CBD is a very effective antipsychotic that occurs naturally alongside the THC: https://academic.oup.com/schizbullopen/article/3/1/sgab053/6... What percent of products sold for recrea

It's a serious problem that we're getting rid of the CBD in products. CBD is a natural antipsychotic. There's some very promising research on it alone as a treatment for schizophrenia even: https://academic.oup.com

I code for a living and have done so for over a decade now, and I completely agree with their analysis. Does it save you $10 worth of your time within a month? Comments here are wildly uninformed. I see comments complaining about copyright

You see a lot of the "see no data, hear no data" in the pharma industry. Mandatory reporting and investigation for adverse event reports means all sorts of loopholes are jumped through to avoid finding out about them. It's me

It's wild to me that to this day we still perpetuate the philosophical biases that originated with the early church, and as such everyone is familiar with Stoic and (Neo)Platonic philosophy, and yet very few people are familiar with th

It's pretty wild seeing experts claiming that AI isn't sentient within a few days of a post lambasting the ethical myopia of experts self-assured about the subjective experience of others. A little over 35 years ago, you'd ha

What people are missing in this conversation is that it doesn't really matter. The end product created by AI that's just "word sequence modeling" is getting increasingly indistinguishable from the end product created by

That's what I always say. A 7 year old isn't actually sentient unless it can tell me if dark matter exists or not. And when little kids make up random stuff in answer to questions? That's not an overactive imagination, it&#x2

Why would you think it's dumb? It makes as much sense as a talk on racial discrimination or gender identity discrimination to me, so I'm curious what's perceptively different about it to others.

You make it more important to be eventually right than initially right. Allow tests to be continuously regraded as the things students get wrong are corrected. Automation would go a long way towards making that more feasible (i.e. easier fo
