I think because it is not text-to-speech. It probably isn't simple to transfer.

CLDR could be improved, but it is better than alternatives.

Yes. Skynet is very dangerous and not safe. In Terminator, humanity is saved because Skynet is dumb, not because Skynet is not dangerous or because Skynet is safe.

Without testing, how would you know we are still pretty far away from models that would pose a risk?

The exact same logic applies to nuclear proliferation, but no one seems to use it to argue against international control effort. Reason: because it is a stupid argument.

Present is already getting lots of attention, eg "Our Approach to Labeling AI-Generated Content and Manipulated Media" by Meta. We need to deal with both, present danger and future danger. This post is specifically about future da

I know this post is about money, but I want to talk about electronic flow meters than money so I will. The description of "Japanese company making the best electronic flow meters" strongly suggests it is Keyence. They are the best

Personally, I really want an AI model that can write me a steamy story about two people having sex in a train, but that's just not the service OpenAI provides. If I want that I should train one myself or find another vendor. This is st

I think it is not RDBMS, rather combinatorial explosion of configuration/flag/option/platform is insidious and we, software engineering as a field, don't know how to do it well. I think it is one of the largest impact pr

Well, PostgreSQL has one of the best internals documentation, it is just that internals are complex, mostly by necessity. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/internals.html

It seems to use many signals, at least according to its own explanation. For example it looks at road signs and license plates to identify countries.

This correctly identifies South Korean landmarks, like Diamond Bridge in Busan. Since I don't have encyclopedic knowledge of world landmarks -- I wouldn't be able to recognize Diamond Bridge-like landmarks in United States -- and

Re: AIX. Why won't IBM pay for it? For example, from the case I know, IBM is paying for AIX support for Rust. I would think PostgreSQL deserves the same. https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/platform-support/aix.ht

Compare, a Nabokov imitation about high speed rail written by Claude: The sleek, serpentine carriages slithered through the verdant landscape, their velocity a silver-streaked affront to the indolent clouds above. Inside, passengers sat ens

Compare, this from real Nabokov (he wrote long sentences; sentences in imitation actually needs to be longer): Twelve years and some eight months later, two naked children, one dark-haired and tanned, the other dark-haired and milk-white, b

One thing law explicitly says is full shutdown capability. So it should be tested whether it can autonomously hack computers on the internet and propagate itself. In fact Anthropic tested this. See https://metr.org/ for mor

How do you know? If we can agree something about AI, it is that we are ignorant about AI. We were similarly ignorant about recombinant DNA, so Asilomar was very cautious about it. Now we know more, we are less cautious. I still think it was

I agree nobody has been killed by AI. In order to continue to ensure that, the law stipulates you should report if someone is killed by AI.

Best practices will say things like "you should test it". While we are ignorant, there are just many reasonable things to do. Human biology is not completely understood, but that does not mean medical checklists are useless.

That's like saying we should punish when bridge collapses, before that any bridge should be able to be built. You can argue that, but not many will agree.

Laws also should be possible (preferably easy) to implement. Why does DMCA ban circumvention tools? Circumvention is already illegal and it is piracy that should be outlawed, not tools to enable piracy? The reason is piracy tools are consid
