I choose LeakyReLU vs ReLU depending on if it's an odd day of the week, LeakyReLU being the slightly favored odd-days because it's aesthetically nicer that gradients propagate through negative inputs, though I can't discern a

He's partially right. AI won't be able to write an interesting, wholly original script anytime soon. For that it's necessary to live as a human, to experience anguish, loss, fear, hope, etc. Art, true art, will be the last fi

Well that is something we agree on. Minimum wage should be livable and pegged to inflation, and the reason its not is because the rich have too much power.

Your two examples of "lies, conspiracy theories, fantastical inventions" were that minimum wage wage costs jobs and that tax cuts generate growth. You are under the impression that there is broad economic consensus on these assert

Whichever side you think lies the most depends on which echo chamber you spend time in. I can think of numerous lies from the left. The Biden laptop thing, Trump said he wants to off Liz Cheney, the fine people thing, etc. If you think one

Do you sincerely think the left doesn't lie also?

The far-right thinks the far-left is dishonest and vice versa. They're both correct. It's all so tiresome.

You're right. The media has been corrupted. It's only logical, over time the media is corrupted as an outgrowth of the Pareto principle applied to politics. Eventually all political systems are corrupted because those with power u

It depends on how you measure inflation. The most important expenses for a young person trying to start a family are health-care, housing, food, child care and college tuition. Inflation in these categories is wild. I don't care at all

You're being disingenuous. The closest Republican talking point to reducing inflation was increasing energy production. That is a legitimately deflationary policy. What I think most people don't understand on the left is how far t

An interesting datapoint: I made my first website a few months ago (I'm an ML engineer). I tried in both Svelte and React. I used Sonnet as a copilot the whole time and expected Svelte to be more difficult because there are orders of m

That would be good because it would incentivize all FSD cars communicating with each other. Imagine how safe driving would be if they are all broadcasting their speed and position to each other. And each vehicle sending/receiving gets

Is that why its being pushed so hard? Or is it perverse incentives in the pharmaceutical industry? A case can certainly be made for both.

Do they ever do something like the following scenario?: 1. LLM is trained on everything 2. LLM classifies everything in training corpus as high / low quality 3. New (or same) LLM (re)trains on only high quality documents I've rea

OP most people replying to you are old and ossified and not your target audience, and there is something to be said for being polarizing (it increases your dating success!). I think this is great, and the reason people keep making new frame

You're right but this isn't a conscious calculation - its deeply rooted, evolved behavior. It evolved because of the dynamic you described. Its the same reason women left the Titanic first, men are more likely to task risks, the Y

GPT-5 will be somewhat better at reasoning on hard problems, just as safe, and slower than GPT-4 by some margin. I think the moat for foundation model providers will be amassing training data that helps with reasoning capability, which is w

Its essential for the Chinese to have a strong navy because they depend on imports of food and energy. What happens when country X blocks the Persian Gulf or the Malacca strait? China needs the ability to unilaterally restore maritime trade

Part of it is likely to be how the US government will react. If Google is seen as anti-China that is fine, if they are seen as anti-Israel they might lose important contracts.

So... what? Should judges overturn all contracts they think are "unreasonable"?

Or its a foreign intelligence agency which does this.

If you treated it like a full time for a year I'm sure you could clean the money though. Especially if you want to retire to a less developed country. Just open a low cost of entry business that accepts cash, and scale up from there.

Let's genetically profile for it, and if there's a link, screen for embryos that don't have it. This would require a bit more technological advancement of course. But imagine, a world without sociopaths! It would be the bigge
