Yeah I mean most of the research at MIT is funded by the military and department of energy. Those guys are not shady at all.

Of course if you believe anything you just said about the ECB you are really delusional. They are very much dependent on a few European governments (primarily France and Germany), this became readily apparent during the financial crisis of

Realistically you need to do a lot more work to support many platforms unless your language is c-like in the first place (meaning that it does need only a very limited runtime)

They are more than willing to hand out old designs to university groups (you just have to ask nicely). In fact someone in our group spend his PhD developing a custom embedded Power processor in 65nm just to be told that when he was hired by

That page also lets you „pause“ your activity recording. I would be pretty pissed if that didn’t work, because so far that means that it shows me no actual recorded information (they still have my emails though)

It‘s super easy to call a cab in Germany and they arrive within 5-10 minutes. A lot of them are nice Mercedes. I really don’t see how doing a call that takes ~30 seconds and paying by cash that you carry around anyways (~100€ in cash on han

Regarding grass feeding: There are a lot of areas were cattle are raised naturally on a grass diet for milk production and meat (think Bavaria, Austria, Switzerland). In those areas growing corn or soy beans would be impossible. There are h

I think this sentiment exists solely among people that don’t actually own any NVIDIA hardware. I‘ve never had any problems with their drivers, any crashes in video games can be usually be attributed to be at least in part the Games fault. I

Tell that to a person in bed, scrolling through Facebook for hours on end. If the content stopped at some point they would do something else hopefully. Compared to TV the pacing is such that people get hooked like on slot machines.

This is only true for closed systems. The nervous system incorporates a lot of external information through learning. Similar to how you need much less information to define a 1TB storage device. The 1GB figure also neglects epigenetics.

You might not need a definition of consciousness. Right now it looks like you can get quite far with „fill in the blanks“ type losses (gpt-2 and Bert) in the case of Language understanding and Self-Play in the case of Games.

Regarding point 1: I should say that I'm not an expert in Quantum Computing, but reading the referenced paper leaves me unconvinced that such an algorithm exists in general. In the paper they show that they can simulate phi^4 efficient

Something that never made sense to me is why people think of Quantum Mechanics (the non-relativistic classical one) as fundamental. While some of its principles certainly are, clearly QFT (quantum field theory) is fundamental. From the pers
