It's because it violates privacy. For example if someone has a huge secret hobby of collecting dildos and suddenly on some unrelated site they see an ad for a huge dildo.. that will cause a bit of an alarm. That's the extreme case

Yeah but do you know the use case of such information? Nobody cares about what you tell alexa on a daily basis. The NSA isn't interested in you period. They just want access to all data so they can hit a specific target. There's t

I use it for ad hoc hands free navigation while driving. It works 60% of the time and I don't have to intervene with my hands. 60% is sort of like a gamble with no downside. Do I have to stop the car or can I just set the destination w

I wonder how many people here have personally been wrongfully shot at by the police versus just watching it on the media? I for one have been shot at several times after being mistaken for carrying a gun when it was really just groceries. E

You need to live in California where these fires have been ravaging the state year after year for the past decade.

What you're saying is true, but this fire was not a good thing. Trees don't do well when you set forest fires year after year after year.

In all likelihood the answer is no. They won't survive.

You got a point. I think the controversy lies in situations where an AI has to differentiate between threats and innocent bystanders. So really what the OP means is the ethics of what to kill and what to let live should not be left to an AI

I'm just saying the ethics of deploying AIs to kill is logically equivalent to deploying mines.

But AI's can qualify as mines. Sending out AI drones is like deploying mines that kill anything within a certain radius.

Not true. If no one has capital to invest then less people will buy stocks even if expectations are high. The price of stocks also reflect the current spending power of actors in the economy.

You're telling me you're not interested in getting rid of apples' monopolistic policies? You're telling me that you're not aware that if epic wins then it means apple has less of a monopolistic foothold over the app

Who cares. The whole point of free market capitalism is to have self interested actors competing to create change that benefits society as a whole. It may not work all the time but right now this is an example of the invisible hand at work.

Why do you assume it's me who doesn't understand. It's you who doesn't get it. There is no difference between losing information during lossy compression and deleting information during lossy compression. Lossy compressi

Except we have a mathematical theory of information, and memory being information we know that it must exists within the bounds of that theory. Hence, memory is compression.

CMake is a meta programming language designed to compile into Makefiles. It can compile into visual studio projects or xcode projects. That's how it achieves multiplatform support. Basically by writing it in CMake rather then make you&

In all cases memory exists as compression. If the memory is completely absent then we're talking about something that doesn't exist, there's no point.

>increases suicidal ideation. Like suicide prevention ideation does not mean all people in solitary confinement want to commit suicide. I venture to argue that most people won't.

by leafboi 6y ago
That notion goes both ways. How do you know we'll be so bored that we'd give up immortality? Extrapolating from information we already have I'd say we get plenty bored with about 80 years of life... I think we'd do well

by leafboi 6y ago
We have examples of this in modern society. Actual prisons where people can spend an entire lifetime. Most people don't commit suicide.

Stakes are lower. More time to achieve a certain net worth. Once I reach that threshold compounding growth takes over. Two centuries is more than enough to achieve this.

Compression is the correct term. Using symbols to represent bigger concepts is a form of compression. The representation/memory of an animal in your mind is done using symbols rather than an actual animal. This isn't speculation.

There's no need to be skeptical. We live in a physical world where all information must be represented by a physical entity. By induction there will be limits no matter what. You cannot have an infinite amount of memory in your head. Y

Memory is seemingly virtual but in reality all memory takes up physical space, so eventually you'll hit limitations. I don't know about the whole "damage" part but from a logical perspective you have a limited amount of

Just quit. Who cares. You're stuck in this mindset of eternity under management. You're immortal. Do the vanlife for a month, Live on an island, start a business. Chill.
