Because copyright is a tradeoff. Society wants information to be free. But authors won’t publish if anyone can republish their work for free. Hence the distinction: The ideas you write are not protected - only your expression is. In a sense

Sounds like an interesting way to benchmark models. Put two instances of a model in a loop with itself. Run for n cycles. Then look at the output.

And by the way, I would really love to somewhere find a log file of your personal life and see how often you have promised something, and it didn’t turn out quite to be as perfect as you thought, or took longer than you thought. Or were you

You are removing agency from everyone who is not visible, even though they might buy trash and make it profitable for thousands of sellers on Amazon to lie, and to fraudsters to lie, etc.. Pointing fingers at those who are the most visible

This is the best explanation. They’ve been doing the same in Google News. Each entry comes not with a URL to the source, but with a hash. To resolve it, you must send requests to Google’s servers. Anyone who wants to create a list of URLs o

The pain being made is: If you use a search engine as your eyes to see what exists “on the internet”, then, absolutely, whatever Google hides from its results or fails to index is “erased” from “your” experience of the internet.

Giving something a sinister name doesn’t change what it is. Didnt Altman say a few years ago that the next frontier for training would be synthetic data? It’s what everyone turned to (Tiny Stories, etc.). Using existing LLMs to generate mor

I tried running Kokoro on my iPhone XS (several years old), and it was slower than real-time. So, i wouldn’t expect it to be usable on a Kindle. But if you find a solution, please let me know.

How can that be legal? You’re assuming anyone famous enough to have a Wikipedia page is granting you a license to republish their content? I think the only thing between your project and a cease and desist is lack of popularity. If proxifyi

I’d like a book search engine that allows me to search for books covering a certain place and/or time. Like: “Is there a WW2 memoir of someone who passed the place where my grandpa was POW?”

Calling another person a monster because you disagree with them (or what you heard about them from third parties) is not the pinnacle of civility. Just think about what you’re saying here. Monster: “Malformed animal or human, creature affli

IIf you’re over-regulated, you’re bound to get something right every once in a while. To over-regulate and get 100 % of regulations wrong would require someone in the system to be able to tell good from bad, aka competence. :)
