Two points here. (1) A lot of technology that Ukraine uses is based on what the Western countries have provided them. (2) Ukraine struggles with AI as well, in fact, according to some sources, Ukraine is already behind Russia in drone techn

I also find it funny when they attribute to Kahneman the very observation that people sometimes decide instinctively and sometimes not. It's like some kind of science-washing.

It is IMO only a matter of time before there is a significant deadly aviation incident involving a drone. The aviation industry is not built around the idea of anybody having this sort of ability.

Censorship in oppressive countries is often not carried out directly by the government. Instead, to save face, it is enforced along invisible power lines. The government gives a silent nod to other actors in society nudging them to act acco

Agreed. I think that many companies force people to use AI in hopes that somebody will stumble upon a killer use case. They don't want competitors to get there first.

In my opinion, the trifecta can be reduced further to a simple statement: an attacker who can input into your LLM can control all its resources.

I think the after looks better, it feels more in control, but at the same time, even the before was completely functional and users would be completely happy with it.

I find it very interesting as well. One would think that there might be many problems with similar properties, but people have already discovered the one that surfaces in Turing machines as well. Does this suggest that there are not that ma

IMO adding ads is not going to be that easy. It is relatively easy to implement ads when the user is scrolling through tons of content and the ads are "organically" injected into the stream. But if the user is seeking a specific a

Because it's easier to emulate Mediterrean diet as all the ingredients are more likely to be accessible? Japanese cuisine has a lot of funky ingredients that are not really produced outside of Japan or East Asia.

Determinism does not require temperature=0. You can have a deterministic behavior even with >0 temperature as long as you fix your random seeds.

Bibliometrics in science is just an unworkable approach in general, and IMO it causes more harms than not. Research is one of the least suitable human activities that you can possibly try to quantify, yet the entire scientific establishment

I switched to Gemini with my new phone and I literally couldn't tell a difference. It is actually crazy how small the cost of switching is for LLMs. It feels like AI is more like a commodity than a service.

In my experience, a custom setup like you described is the most robust way to do a long term blog. You basically want to decouple from any tech stack, staying with the bare minimum that you need to publish. That's why you can still see

You also need to consider that the field is moving really fast and you cannot really rely on being able to have the same margins in a year or two.
