No, my question is whether the per-story fact checking is equal, or much less. I suspect it's much less. Do you know otherwise?

by qarl2 2mo ago
Agreed. Which is why I raise the point.

I don't doubt that massive organizations make a lot of errors. I don't think it makes your point, tho. The question is error per volume. I seriously doubt Gruber does the same amount of fact checking as a serious publication. And

When you spread disinformation you should bear the cost of it. Gruber has a massive audience. He should try harder.

Adorable how I'm being downvoted for stating a simple, obvious fact. We don't appreciate facts anymore?

Agreed. Which is why I provided a link to a the source of one such project above. I have several projects in that Github account if you need more. Perhaps you didn't see it.

I'd love for HN to explain why I was flagged here for answering: > If the people claiming that everything has changed were even a fraction as productive as they think, then it would be visible even to people who weren't looking

Calculators have never improved my ability to do long division. And yet, I am still quite good at mathematics.

Oh hey - the timer finally kicked off. In case you didn't see my reply - here you go: HEH. Not sure why you're implying I have changed my position. I said as much above and would have said the same at any time. I don't think

HEH. Not sure why you're implying I have changed my position. I said as much above and would have said the same at any time. I don't think it's controversial in the least that there are things AI can't do. Do you have

My primary interest in these threads is to debunk the claims that "AI is a hoax". Granted, that's not exactly the claim these days, the claim's goalposts shift constantly, as these things do. But if you go back to the to

If you'd like to change the subject I'd be happy to do so. You're right - there are still many problems that have not been solved by AI. AI has not found a cheap and effective way to turn lead into gold, as an example. But I

by qarl2 2mo ago
Why are you changing the subject? What does your new subject have to do with the fact that the previous arguments were all pretty much baloney? Pointing to a problem that has not been solved is completely unrelated to the miraculous things

A proof isn't an anecdotal story. The claim was this is not possible. I show it happening. That's a proof. You're confused because the example is my own project. But I'm not merely describing it - I am giving you full

I'm sorry downvoters - it's true. In his opening statement he complained about nastiness and then became extremely nasty himself, when I had said nothing like that to him. Other than just disagree and provide evidence.

by qarl2 2mo ago
LOL. Providing a counter example is far from just an anecdote.

by qarl2 2mo ago
No. I am not talking past anyone. I am providing cogent argumentation and evidence. And I'm being met with nonsense and platitudes. And... I didn't start it. Cheers. EDIT: Good choice.

by qarl2 2mo ago
If you can point to a single error in my argument I would love to talk to you about it. Otherwise, you have a good life as well.

> there are a lot There are none. Ghidra does not provide semantic names. dotPeek shows you the symbols that were not stripped from the .NET. Neither of these can do what I asked.

by qarl2 2mo ago
Projects, plural. And weren't you the one who started this complaining of nastiness?

> but we had decompilers before Cite one example of a decompiler that provides English names and comments.

by qarl2 2mo ago
As near as I can tell - your argument boils down to "I've seen other people make mistakes so you must be also."
173.
by qarl2 2mo ago
I would love for you to cite a single one. It must take a binary executable and derive English names for the memory addresses.

I just showed you something that would have been considered a miracle one year ago. And your response was "So what - show me another one."

by qarl2 2mo ago
I guess my experience is different than yours - and I'm providing evidence.
176.
by qarl2 2mo ago
Except I'm providing evidence.

I think we are noticing it. Are you not? I've shipped three software projects in the last two months. I shipped zero in the preceding year. Right now I'm building a system to decompile MAME ROM games into idiomatic JavaScript.

I'm one of the people who gets accused of this. I don't mind skepticism. But every time I turn around, someone's claiming nobody gets any value from these tools and anyone who says otherwise is deluded or running a scam. That

They don't need to make NP-hard tractable to shake the world order. They just need to be better than humans.
