But…the whole point is that it is NOT a market. If student debt is dischargeable and the government guarantee is removed or dramatically reduced, pretty much all problems are “solved”. Universities will have to start focusing on ROI. Univer

Kudos for going for electric and automated approach. This is high risk but exactly the kind of thing that can open up cheaper, easier flights. Both technologies (Electric and pilot-less) are pretty clearly going to be capable enough for som

I asked it to "Write me a short story", and it came up with this, which I thought was definitely different. Longer, mispellings (grandiothers), but much more interesting than I would typically see out of a LLM. Not sure what to th

I love this, great work for science overall. This is exactly the type of approach/response one should take, and I hope he gets praise for doing the right thing.

If I understand the article, it’s that if you keep everything the same and simply replace ai for human doctors, then you won’t have better outcomes. Basically, you sometimes need multiple diagnostics and actually need to get scans and medic

Most people would consider deliberately damaging a child's hearing permanently so they can be a part of the deaf community to be child abuse. Similar to paralyzing a child to be a part of that community. It's great that there are

I think each of these is already handled, or at least most. They say 99.4% of uptime in record inclement weather, which seems like it should satisfy "all". https://waymo.com/blog/2023/08/the-waymo-d

I heard an interview from Wise where they just talked about all the random things they did to just drive down costs. They know people care mostly about speed and cost, so they focus there. It seems to not really be 1 thing, but a million sm

I don’t t suspect it’s a technical issue at all, it’s economic. Trucking and truck routes do have a strong incentive to switch eventually. But the examples given of Cruise and Waymo are losing tons of money. Trucking companies would need to

Thanks for the context! I found the article a bit puzzling as it made the researchers seem almost panicked about the neuroethical part. This was either: (1) a journalistic technique (2) the capabilities are progressing far faster here than

I loved the hyperloop concept, but it felt like the company was too early. The real problem that needs to be solved first before this is viable is "cost effective tunnels". Only once you have those, does adding a vacuum and accele

I like this project! I’ve been thinking of looking for something similar involving GPTV to see what the user sees, and then sending that info along with context to an assistant group with autogen. (This is because I have found groups of age

I think US law has it backward, and health data should be publicly accessible by default, and very easy to share with researchers. I care so much more about solving diseases and reducing costs than I do privacy. I think people underestimate

The act may be good, but this 70 years after death thing was a disaster for copyright. Seems like 5 years after death is plenty to avoid any issues.

Yes, multiple workspaces is not effectively entirely broken for the reasons you mentioned. I was on about 10 workspaces before, many were just fun groups I was a part of. But the UI was so bad for multiple workspaces that I had to leave alm

8k should be the realm of almost exclusively upscaled content, and this should be the pitch. Don’t worry about 8k content, it just makes 4k better.

Not OP but short answer: In 40 years, we are reasonably likely to have: functional immortality (cured natural death), brain augmentation, AI/machines able to do many things for us, fusion/renewable-based energy abundance, and more

$140/rep is enormously expensive for just one small piece of the stack. Add in Gong, Salesforce, Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigstor and a dozen other tools and you end up with $1k / rep / mo. This just doesn’t seem sustainable

To make monopoly a lot more fun, every time someone lands on an unowned property, go to auction. It means people are engaged almost every turn.

I re-read 127 celsius multiple times to try and make sure I understood that (260 Fahrenheit). This is a nice extra bonus, not only does this work at "room temperature", it works in death valley. At 127 celsius, you have a lot of m

My 2 cents, as someone who has been mostly a hobbyist here. (1) Find a buddy who is also interested in it. Things are a lot better if you have a friend. (2) Then try to build something based on turtlebot or similar platform. Start with jus

I've also used ROS a lot (but not in the last 2 years), and +1 your comment. The main gripe with ROS is poor documentation, and people's over-reliance on coding in the simulator. Not the architecture. The biggest challenge IMO is

I do love the concept. I could see us using the standard terms. I am not sure about spending $5 per contracted customer per month forever. This seems like a lot. It feels like it should scale down or something, maybe $1/mo? or $5 per c

Just to expand your lower bar, some people suspect it is not much bigger than GPT 3.5 @ 175B parameters, but this is also speculation. I don't think there has been anything official.

Great, I think updating the docs to note that it accepts both might be helpful. As I recall, if you try to use those models with the /completions API in OpenAI it throws an error and makes you use the chat/completions API. I haven
