I disagree. The problem is this person is not the only one - they are the only one saying out loud on HN. This view is not distant from the views of people like Altman, Musk, Andreessen, Zuck ... the list goes on. There have been and always

I am aware of it. That is the problem. AI is going to grease the wheels of the horrible stuff of which you speak. Not only that it will concentrate important decisions in the hands of fewer people.

Just started going down that route myself. For the money it performs well and runs most of the models at reasonable speeds. 1. Thermal considerations are important due to throttling for thermal protection. Apple seems best at this but $$$$

Maybe it would be better for them to enter the Risc-V market. My working thesis is that SoftBank had milked the Arm cow dry. That is why they took it public to pawn the dregs off onto the retail investor. Paying for an Arm license is wasted

What if we find out that information asymmetry is how most of the money gets made?

One thing Proven might have done is to analyze the attack. Then see if the lock could be improved to prevent it. Offer exchanges for the old locks (most of which are unlikely to be requested). Instead they resort to Lawyers, refuse to solve

Doesn't necessarily have to be left up to the whims of one person though.

They are afraid to say it because it may affect the funding. Currently with all the hype surrounding AI investors and governments will literally shower you with funding. Always follow the money:) Buy the dream - sell the reality.

Flying vehicles are fundamentally a different beast. They need to be light and are therefore more fragile. Also my car engine quitting while driving is not necessarily a life threatening situation. When you're a thousand feet above the

The EV car market is rapidly evolving which tends to make people skittish about purchases and tend to the latest innovations. I decided to lease my first EV because I figured it would be outdated pretty quickly. I was wrong. In reality the

Imagine a simple scenario. Take your $260,000 Helix to the grocery store to pickup groceries. While you are in the store a mother fighting with her kids accidentally damages your Helix backing up the car. Are you going to hop into that thi

Reminds me of how Popular Mechanics use to alternate between Flying Cars and return of the Blimps issues. Scott is a sport pilot enthusiast and approached the evaluation from that perspective. I don't think there are many pilots, mysel

Agree but at least someone took time and effort to write it before. There were limits on the quantity produced. AI will simply release a flood of this stuff. Social media did similar things by making zero barriers to "Enquireresque&qu

Maybe they are using the $100 Billion NVidia investment to pay for this:) If this ship sinks they are all going down together.

Ok Before I am accused of misrepresenting things and in the interest of clarity. 1. I am in San Francisco. 2. Upon further research Flock does not appear to be used by SFPD for ticketing. They have another camera system for that. That does

Don't need radar to calculate speed with multiple photographs. And yes technically the city issued the warning.

"Flock safety currently solves ... %10 of the crime Nation Wide" Pretty bold statement without citing data to back that up. I have already received a speeding warning letter from one of these things. Does that count as a crime Flo

Question Let's just assume that AI works in some fundamental way similar to human intelligence works. Would it be likely that the AI would suffer from some of the same problems as people? Hallucinations, Obsequiousness etc IMO One of t

If they are on site why not interview them? If the purpose of these online assessments is to be the mouth of the funnel that process is starting to fail. https://www.reddit.com/r/leetcode/comments/1mu3qjt&#x2F

IMO leetcode has multiple problems. 1. People can be hired to take the test for you - surprise surprise 2. It is akin to deciding if someone can write a novel from reading a single sentence.
