I find it strange to blame the industry just to absolve everyone else. As if they had been in a somehow privileged position to know. To me it seems like there was some early research and then more and more research, so that by the 80s there

It's what Siri and Alexa should have been. I think we will see much more of this in the next years. If - and only if - it can run locally and not keep a permanent record then the issue of listening in the background would go away, too.

The fact is that you don't have to look at all, because the Tesla touchscreen does not have modalities. (There is a drill-down menu that you NEVER need to open during driving). Everything else is accessible in exactly the same spot at

Can you give an example of something that really needs to be adjusted on the touchscreen while driving that cannot be adjusted using the buttons on the steering wheel on the Model 3? I never ever need to do this. Additionally the lane keepi

At least in Germany most manufacturers do this - and not only for electric cars. Many modern cars do not contain a spare tire. And this has been widely reported for at least 10 years now. I generally find it really strange that so many arti

It‘s the Duolingo of software engineering. Real understanding requires real effort.

They seem to be just as important when you‘re not single, maybe even more. Also the type of entertainment may change, but I think people like this at all ages.

Unless you want to live in an area where entertainment and restaurants and specialized healthcare and all the other good things are plentiful.

How can it possibly be more rent extracting than the mainframe? Also openness, choice of vendor, invisible hardware and virtually unlimited scalability are different.

Couldn't conventional software have done this? And it didn't. So why would AI do it now?

Maybe it will, maybe it won't. It took Amazon a decade to have a serious impact on the economy, even though it was working from day one. Now we have AI technology that's only half working. So what the impact will be and when is an

A currency is a tool, not a store for wealth. Stability is to be balanced against employment and economic productivity.

> BTW experienced mediators apperently can experience no time and no space, no idea how that tastes like. Sure, they might feel so, but the fact is that all kinds of state changes happen, so time goes on.

by quonn 3y ago
The reason why this is likely not possible is because consciousness appears to require a notion of time passing by and having a constant experience means that there is no time. For time to exist some sort of motion is needed, including eith

If the alternative is unemployment, maybe yes?

Why? I think this would only be true if negative inflation is the goal. Since the inflation rate is computed relative to last year and as long as salaries do not increase, after a year or two of inflation the average employee has less and l

It is not entirely different because the classic Autopilot was migrated from radar to vision-only and that surely was done by sharing some code. However the classic autopilot is outdated by 4 years. But my point was not about Autopilot vs.

by quonn 3y ago
This is simply wrong, because it is not a matter of cost. ChatGPT can be available for free and it would still not replace most jobs in its current state. Likewise the current state of vision-based self-driving is not good enough to replace

I can‘t help but think that when I cut one half just slightly bigger or better the chooser will pick the smaller version due to wanting to be polite.

Well, the non FSD autopilot always does this for me. It would certainly hit things regularly. It does recognize moving cars but it would have hit countless parked cars on the right side had I not intervened.

That sounds about right. There is definitely nothing in the _design_ of the model or in the training procedure that is already and by itself intelligent, instead it is an intelligence extraction process. The intelligence is in the data and

No it doesn‘t. What‘s terrifying is the previous non-FSD code that just centers the car in the lane and will hit anything protruding into the lane. There is little reason to believe that the vision will fail worse than before or that hand r

Why would this be different with a net that only handles the input? It would be the same. All v12 does is learn control outputs directly from camera data instead of, for example, learning to detect a traffic light and then have some hand ro

I can, in principle, take someone from a group of uncontacted peoples, put them into New York and let them figure out how to drive and they likely will be able to do it after not too much time. We are not even close to any technology that c

It depends on the company. VW has a serious problem because they are selling a mass market product where they need to compete with the Chinese products. And while they make fine cars their infotainment system that now controls everything is

What a strange thing to say. Come on, you must have done at least something small as a selfless act. At least something does has not inconvenienced you very much. We do this all the time and not just to feel better about ourselves.
