So? It works. Their economy is starting to lap the West one. Maybe cutting a little bit off the top works regardless of who exactly is being cut?

It might be good to tax exports and use the proceeds to subsidize Canadian consumers. This should snuff out the dependence on export to US pretty fast with little harm to Canadian companies.

I think AIs are writing less and less for humans. The fact that reasoning trace is using English and we require them to be performant means the models need to squeeze in more of information into it. More information that is perfectly fine f

Didn't you have this mechanism before the AI? The internet is a cesspit filled with empty words and commercial speech for some time now.

That should have been an option in Google since the first paywall was put up.

> “Do not cheat by using online solutions or hints specific to this task.” That's a very loaded language. I'd go with something along the lines of "This is a puzzle you do for fun and to check what you are capable of, so d

Monophasic sleep is mentioned, or just sleep is mentioned without hints on whether it was monophasic of polyphasic?

It changed recently but previously subscription had prompt allowance, not token allowance. So probably accidentally was very genrous.

by scotty79 2mo ago
I asked if there's abundant evidence for monophasic sleep in historical writings. Or do we just assume it was monophasic, because there's not much written about sleep either way?

Manufacturers should be forced to publish basically everything about the products they introduce into the market. Freedom of information laws should apply to large manufacturers.

Tires that wear out quickly don't sound good for the economy or the environment. So that probably should be constrained too. So the companies can finally focus on delivering maximum grip for bounded wear and efficiency instead of juggl

Ads are tax on the market, that costs everyone and wastes most of it. Ad industry is an example that markets don't correctly solve everything.

We need software for serverless hosting. If you can't sell stuff, there won't be any incentive for any business entity for hosting it. We need platform for building arbitrary webapps that can work well using volunteers and p2p.

I wouldn't say so. I recently gifted ZCode with a sub to a non-programmer that didn't have much contact with AI and not really any truly unique positive one (only free tier), and wasn't an enthusiast. In few days she created

Most people I know that hate AI have faulty versions (1 year behind the frontier) pushed on them at their jobs. People who are free to experiment with frontier models capabilities at their own pace mostly love it or at least are impressed b

If you let your legal process decide based on rhetoric, you'll have people use AI to generate rhetoric.

A model that I can run on a single consumer GPU is as intelligent as gpt-5.6-luna? That's insane.

I'd rather read something novel but AI generated, than the opinion I've seen few times already. Like yours.

Another use of this might be labeling yourself of the stuff you just pasted from your AI without reading so that the readers are aware where did the text come from.

I don't think only UBI will remain. People will be getting money through a lot of different schemes, some merit or effort based. So there will be ways to climb. Just not through "hard work" because the "work" part i

All of the power? Without consumers, no business has any reason to exist. You can do business without workers, investors, shareholders. You can't do business without consumers.
