Whatever comes out of this kerfuffle, the based dial will be set to 11. It’s unfortunate that we can’t monetize this stuff in the same vein as crypto and ChatGPT because I’d love to hear YouTube grifters telling you how you can make money o

One of the commenters on that article says how they are supposed to be entertaining. But I’ll add one more: they’re shitposters. It’s entertaining to a certain audience who don’t take them seriously, but causes an outrage in others who are

You don’t actually expect us to do something about this, do you? Outrage posturing is the name of the game. Say a lot. Sound serious. Threaten action. Do nothing.

This is true for quite a few graphic algorithms today. Certain terms in the equations used are pre-computed, and you can generalize all of them in a sense to be “probes”, “queries”, “function inversions”, “look up tables” or whatever. The o

Very strange that no one mentioned Valve’s papers on this which covers as far as I can tell most points here, nor “I Shot You First” which if I remember right was Halo’s version.

I haven’t seen you disagree anywhere with OP. You said they’re wrong, then you affirmed a cornerstone of OPs argument when you said “it’s hard to be smart if you’re calorie-reduced.” In truth, the data is weak and nonsensical and it’s used
