any publicity is more than a no name startup would usually get. stunts like these are often primarily for publicity.

For an office door, why not a key card or lanyard badge or whatever? A code? I feel like you could use something easier than an app too.

I wonder why the flavoring would be different? Also zero or the full fat versions, because maybe it's different types of artificial sweeteners involved?

red bull doesn't taste great personally but most flavors of monster actually do to me. and they're less bitter than coffee and carbonated, which is nice.

what harm are you thinking of? any pointers?

I could believe the UK might try to ban selling coffee to under 21s too at the current rate, honestly. There's probably at least one study about stunting growth with coffee?

What health effects compared to other caffeine sources (pills, coffee) I haven't really noticed any, or heard much studies that wouldn't apply to similar amounts of coffee at least. Do the other supplemented ingredients add a lot

the people blindly submitting prs are not going to be using expensive frontier models, though.

is that faster than just knowing what tables you want to run it on? I can see it for agentic but having to chat back and forth every time sounds frustratingly slow for my tastes

Isn't everything like this? Ask an AI about news and it has to deal with contradictory and poorly labeled accounts of an event. Ask it about mechanics in a game and it has to deal with every version of it, maybe different editions or r

Good point - maybe also stop taking public input on decisions. :V I kid, but I get more sympathetic to totalitarian countries seeing how people react to some things too. it simplifies "banding together" if there's fewer decis

Do people have to know about what generates their electricity? They get input now, but we could probably just stop taking public input on new infrastructure and that would avoid poorly motivated protests of wind farms or nuclear.

what's the current solution that's impossible for kids to bypass with a borrowed or stolen id, say? I don't see any proposals yet that will actually work for what they say they'll do.

realistically it'll just be arbitrarily enforced based on the individual cop / agent / whoever's judgement. so try not to look any particular way, I guess?

Give up IP for end users and people will be pretty okay with giving up on IP for ai companies. You can't have different standards for special companies though.

similar to structuring laws, right? trying to not provide evidence is occasionally similar to destroying it.

they look kinda ai generated, maybe. or ai edited?

If you look at recent trends in consumer spending, a lot more of it is from the upper classes and less from the middle. Selling services to the rich can displace the loss of white collar workers. (in theory). as a bonus, ideally you create

If I give you 5 trillion dollars I want to get that back plus a percentage increase on top for my troubles, right? Government programs might run without the expectation of paying back taxpayers but investors are less generous.

by nemomarx 3mo ago
Investors expect that they will, I guess. If you really believe the strong ai use cases (like exponential improvements, or it replacing hundreds of knowledge workers at every company" then maybe this isn't unreasonable.

This is an interesting test, but it does seem to me that visual models being able to price things was already kinda unrealistic? It makes me think of the calorie guessing use case. you can't tell the difference between materials and in

You do really need to see the useage numbers for this. Movie pass famously thought they could price movie tickets like gym memberships - I assume they looked at how often the average person watched movies in theaters at the start - but then

I do wonder if "without my approval" is looser than "discuss only, do not make edits"? I'm not sure how much that finegrain thing matters in prompts nowadays tho

When people get doom running on a toaster, do you also ask how many people game on a toaster? It's more about the technical challenge of the whole deal.

if windows update was downloading things without my knowledge or consent, kind of? this is why people resent some forced Microsoft software after all. anyway if the costs are high surely they can pay the end users. at least then there'

designs on the time scale I guess. and openai might feel secure in their favor with the admin?

how's it avoid causing problems for the user? it's using their Internet. imagine if they had data caps or so on and you're downloading through that proxy - that's basically taking his money, right?

They want to present AI as a growing and vital service so that shareholders think they're making good investments, right? Whether that's true or not, you know Google would always be putting the best appearance on it.

if there's a strong measurable effect to any of these supplements, why can't it be studied? there are companies on both sides, so someone who sells creatine could fund one if they like.
