Because not all neural networks are LLMs. A GAN is a neural network, does that make it an LLM?

We may "just" be neural networks that run on meat instead of silicon, but that does not mean that we're LLMs.

It's pretty obvious that I was comparing it to government/military aviation and not other forms of transportation, and that I was saying it was safe.

by roarcher 3y ago
Private aviation isn't special in terms of accidents either, though. There have been plenty of NASA spacecraft and military aircraft lost due to accidents, maintenance issues, and design flaws.

You're probably right, it's the equivalent of public transportation for cargo. And you still need a truck to deliver the packages to all those drone bases anyway.

The thing that makes rural areas inefficient for trucks (distance between customers) is far worse for drones. Drones have to be based out of somewhere close to the customer due to their short battery life, which means you have to have a lot

"Self portrait" is just another category of image to Stable Diffusion. It's not rendering what it thinks Stable Diffusion looks like, it's rendering what it thinks a typical self portrait looks like.

I think you're giving far too much credit to the reasoning abilities of people who filter their dates this way. They're not carefully coming up with heuristics to optimize their "application process". It's just plai

They banned it because that sort of call out is meaningless in an age when everyone accuses everyone they disagree with of being a "shill", "astroturfer", "troll", "fake news", and what have you.

You jest, but it happens. The mystery to me is why a guy's reaction to it would be "damn I wish I had an iPhone so that girl would like me" and not "I'm glad I don't have an iPhone so I can weed out these nutjo

Thanks for the clarification! This makes sense. I do wonder who is liable if the software used to design a bridge outputs incorrect simulation results and the bridge collapses as a consequence. I suppose it's on the senior project engi

Do you mean that CAD software itself has to comply with certain regulations? Or that it helps engineers comply with regulations regarding their designs? Not a professional CAD user myself, but as a hobbyist with an interest in this space I&

Nobody is asking for "hype" or "bombastic marketing". Just a video of it in operation. It's a rocket, it's cool, people like to see rockets. If you used their money to build it, that doesn't seem like too

They're being paid by the public to build something. Showing them that it actually works is "bombastic American style marketing"? In the US we would call it accountability. Modesty is great and all, but this comes across more

Maybe, but the world's major currencies have a long way to go before they're anywhere near Bitcoin levels of volatility. At the moment crypto is suitable for speculation and not much else. As a currency it's only superior in

by roarcher 3y ago
The volatility alone must be a dealbreaker for most people. Shockingly, the average consumer does not enjoy the rollercoaster thrill of having no idea how much buying power they'll have tomorrow.

Out of curiosity, how much of that do you typically use during a heavy workload, and what apps use most of it? Asking because I have 64GB on Ubuntu and rarely exceed 30 or so of actual usage. 384GB of RAM is just wild to me. Maybe it's
