Deepseek and Mistral are both considerably behind Opus, and you could not make deepseek or mistral if I gave you a big gpu cluster. You have the weights but you have no idea how they work and you couldn't recreate them. > I have wor

Yes. I also don't think it is realistic to pretend you understand how frontier LLMs operate because you understand the basic principles of how the simple LLMs worked that weren't very good. Its even more ridiculous than me pretend

Even very young children with very simple thought processes, almost no language capability, little long term planning, and minimal ability to form long-term memory actively deceive people. They will attack other children who take their toys

Are you ever concerned about the consequences of what you are making? No one really knows how this will play out and the odds of this leading to disaster are significant. I just don't understand people working on improving ai. It just

The only thing seriously reducing trust in elections is anti-democratic politicians who will ALWAYS find a convenient reason to claim the election is rigged, and many of their followers will believe and propagate that lie to create distrust

You're really comparing scaling up manufacturing of a 70 year old tank to building modern weaponry? That is beyond ridiculous.

idk, If I was in control of a country in the EU I would realize, unfortunately for pretty much everyone on the planet, that we have made a drastic miscalculation by relying on the US so heavily for defense. However, that is not something th

It is a real problem that AI's will basically confirm that most inquiries are true. Just by asking a leading question often results in the AI confirming it is true or stretching reality to accommodate the answer being true. If I ask if

You really can't though, not if the games have an online component or you want the game to be patched/updated as frequently as it would be on steam. Almost all games these days are basically like a work in progress, so if you pira

Of course you are. Either party can adjust a contract on renewal, just like a lease. Also you aren't agreeing to pay to renew the contract. It isn't a rent payment in a structured contract. You can cancel at any time.

I agree it sucks, but I don't see why they shouldn't be allowed to do it.

But you are paying to restart the subscription every month/year. They can't change it then?

I'm confused. Do you think you were owed no ads indefinitely? They can't change what the membership offers ever? So if they stopped letting you watch their new content because you had an old no ads membership would that be ok?

I'm not sure, but this seems like a form of anti-social behavior that destroys value for everyone except the people plundering the company. It is almost like piracy and we should honestly try to figure out a way to not allow large comp

Well that isn't what they are quite doing though. They are using the money they force the company to borrow to pay for the purchase.

I agree with you, though I would say what is happening here is more like strip mining vs cutting dead wood. I don't know that it should be legal to buy a company and then pay for it by loading up the company with debt obligations. It s

Some problems are much easier to solve than others. The problems you are bringing up are far more intractable and far harder and more expensive to solve.

Nobody even knows about this, no one thinks "Microsoft, hell no, they are a key player in the gaza conflict." No one really associates human rights with Microsoft's reputation. That is the domain of Palantir, Meta, etc.

Steam has been selling these games for years without ever saying there was a problem with this. So has itch.

F2P games are very different in design from regular games(and far worse imo) You can't even realistically have a F2P game that requires a high spec machine because of how the market works.

All governments have some amount of corruption. What matters is the scale of the corruption. Trump and his people are stealing Pelosi's entire net worth like 4-5 times a month.

I mean, now we call the three laws "alignment", but it honestly seems inevitable that it will go wrong eventually. That of course isn't stopping us from marching forwards though in the name of progress.

This is like blaming scientists for global warming because there are a small group of scientists willing to sell their credibility to justify not taking action against climate change.

Economics is not forcing the GOP to extend the tax cuts right now. Economics do not override politicians.

a 3yr old is actually far more similar to AI than an adult. 3 year olds have extremely limited context windows. They will almost immediately forget what happened even 20-30 seconds ago when you play a game like memory with them, and they ra

When you talk to ~3 year old children they hallucinate quite a lot. Really almost nonstop when you ask them about almost anything. I'm not convinced that what LLM's are doing is that far off the beaten path from our own cognition.
