I'll definitely give it a whirl sometime. And I appreciate the detailed field report. It's just that, if someone gave me 3 hours, and asked me to come back with constructive, actionable progress toward creating a simulator for X

The answer is "no", of course. As any biologist will tell you - these new technologies can't begin to bring these species "back". All they can do is create chimeras (based on other species) with certain attributes

In the future, why couldn't we have VR that didn't require you to wear a headset, that felt, smelt, looked and tasted just like the physical universe in every way? I can't begin to imagine what kind of technology we'd

I'm happy to meet everybody as human beings. No fucking way I am. Reading the above, it seems you lack awareness of how messed up and dangerous certain people out there are.

So how would GPT fare at writing a simulation for a problem ... that has no source code or even literature for it in the (crawlable) public domain? Also, as to what the GPT group was able to produce -- sure it was a lot of code, and apparen

Eventually we will solve this, and once we do it will go mainstream. Another point of view is that VR sucks for what it is , even if all the technical glitches were resolved tomorrow and everything worked perfectly. Why? People just don

You can read it however you want. But in that context, the meaning was clearly open-ended.

I suspect it's less useful as a "this person will excel" test and more useful as a "this person won't fail miserably" test. Unfortunately the OP seems to be using it in the former sense (when applied to the t

You keep dialing back the definition of "fail" to mean "to go out of business." In common usage its meaning is far broader -- it can also mean e.g. "to screw up spectacularly" (in a way that cost the company ve
