I don't know how the code was created. But based on my experience with multiple project, both current frameworks and AI changed the game. I used to much more reply on existing software and cursing that they don't do what I want -

It is one of the game changers of AI. It used to be a that the barrier of entry of creating a new tool was high - so we had to use popular pieces of software, often stretching them, or writing plugins (that had their own constraints). Now

I think you are talking about correlation in humans of, say, verbal and mathematical intelligence. Still, it is a correlation, not equality - there are many word-acknowledged writers who suck at math, and mathematical prodigies who are ar

There’s already a vague definition that AGI is an AI with all the cognitive capabilities of a human. Yes, it’s vague - people differ. This paper promises to fix "the lack of a concrete definition for Artificial General Intelligence&quo

Tracking will be more profitable. But there is a dark difference if it is de facto the main source of revenue, or some scammy addition. In the later case, it can be regulated - the same way as we have safety regulation for food or equipment

Sure, advertising is profitable. Yet, there are various regulations or social norms telling what is available and what is not. For example, we can think of covering a landmark "because it is profitable" - e.g. think of dressing th
