Yeah except that the agent cannot be held accountable if its fix is crap, or if it went off-track mid-fix.

Perhaps relevant context: The EU commission just ignored the "Tech Sovereignty Package" it launched ~3 weeks ago, and explicitly referred open-source as a core element of their strategy, and endorsed W, another ATproto-based socia

Are we really discussing a plan that has never been attempted before (training a frontier model on federated hardware) and that would require coordination on a continental scale, sketched on a five-page PDF on GitHub with no discernible aut

The "good lawyer" is/was a major archetype in modern Western culture. See "The Devil and Daniel Webster", "To Kill a Mockingbird", "Paths of Glory", just to name a few examples.

Well the size of IJ is itself a statement: 1. there's an awful lot to unpack once you start exploring the intersection of capitalism, addiction, and entertainment; 2. can you even _manage_ to go through it all without switching to mind

If the backend function was so poorly coded to allow such a gargantuan security hole, then it is an even worse problem. Basically Meta is throwing its own engineers under the bus so that its AI chatbot can save face. Scary stuff. Unless the

You joke but this is almost literally what Chain-of-Thought does, at least in the early days. They basically just added "Wait," to the model's output and fed it back to the model iirc

To be honest, Zork at times makes precious little sense: you are supposed to die over and over before you figure stuff out. For instance, you have to grab the endless-light-source treasure very early on, or you mathematically cannot win. An

I think the order in which the different elements of the book are introduced is crucial, as it leads to a lot of "aha!" moments. > What put me off it is it just kind of reads like a rambling stoner conversation. Yeah well, that

If things get as much as 10% as chaotic as you predict, there will be massive turmoil and the "Destroy all Clankers" party will actually be the one in charge.

This has really little to do with embrace and extend. They are not taking over an open standard or anything like that. If anything, it's forced dogfooding, i.e., forcing their own workforce to beta-test their product.

I don't think they mention it in the CoC, but anyone can upload an ArXiv preprint listing literally anybody else as a coauthor, so it is only logical that only "confirmed" coauthors should be affected.

As I mentioned in another thread: To be a coauthor on a preprint that you have not submitted, you have to actively "claim" it (using a password given to the author who submitted). It's on you to double-check before claiming.

But most "normal" neural networks are feed-forward, so they are guaranteed to terminate in a bounded amount of time. This rules Turing completeness right out. And even recurrent NNs can be "unfolded" into feed-forward eq

The alternative is have hooks _forcibly_ run on people's machines, which is fantastic as an attack vector and CVE generator but probably not a good choice in other respects.

Well you can tell them to please enable hooks in the PR guidelines, but you cannot really police what they do or don't run on their own machines.

Yes, this is well-known (eg. in abstract interpretation). As you said, usually you can set a "cap" to the size of these objects, and start merging intervals when you hit the cap. But at least in abstract interpretation it seems th

Sorry to be a party pooper, the Web app is neat, but I have some reservations about the paper. Namely, the "powerset of intervals" domain has been known since the '70s [1], and powerset domains have been generalised to arbitr
