"I am permanently locked out of my account with no recourse" is also a security issue.

Not really. I can't imagine a realistic solution that would affect, say, how we actually model a real fluid. Hypothetically we could find out that a whole class of real fluids are not modelled by Navier-Stokes at all, but I don't

What real-world consequences are implied by a solution to Navier-Stokes?

> math problems are really there to solve a real world problem I think this is totally wrong. Math problems are almost by definition problems with a particular theory. That theory might be inspired by the real world, but the problem itse

None of the things you mention are guaranteed to increase the probability of correctness. You can run the LLM output through as many deterministic programs as you like, but "the query plan runs in acceptable time" is not something

Not sure this reply makes much sense. I said that if we (humans) become more productive, i.e. that we can produce sufficient food/water/shelter/whatever with less effort, then the first goal after that should be to reduce the

You could enslave someone and yet give them a greater standard of living than a medieval king. That would not mean that it is acceptable, or even better.

Why is involuntary work a good?

Work is a necessary evil. If it is not necessary, then it is just a regular evil. There are no credible arguments that going to the moon is necessary, or supports some other necessary goal. Of course by work, I mean work directed by somebod

Again, lots of people put in 9 years of work and never get anywhere with it. The success tailwind has had is not a consequence of the work.

I really just think they got lucky, I don't see anything to celebrate. It's like celebrating one of your friends winning the lottery - good for them, but it's not really an indication the system is working well at all.

Right, and as a consequence lots of very important software (orders of magnitude more important than tailwind) does not have full-time employees. Good for them if they can manage it, but it's a gravy train.

No, it doesn't. If the claim is just that download numbers are not consistently trending upwards, they should have just said that. I would have no trouble understanding that. What they actually said is "Libreoffice didn't s

Excuse you? What I originally said was "I don't understand your comment". They posted a clarification, and the clarification still doesn't make sense. No, I haven't read the download numbers. How is that going &qu

by tempfile 18d ago
But that is perfectly consistent with the downloads incrementally going up all the time. It doesn't say anything about whether the recent policy changes increased that rate.

It's not clear to me that they would have credited the authors if they had not got in touch with OpenAI first.

I don't understand this comment. You don't seem to be disagreeing with OP?

I think "greyed out" just means "0 points or less", so if you get 1 downvote without any upvotes it'll be greyed out. For instance your initial reply to me is now greyed out, and I have since observed a few upvotes

I can imagine excuses for unknowing plagiarism in this case. What is described in the article seems much more serious: a research program that was only initiated following reports of the author's similar program . In this case no excu

It isn't relevant whether they were promised that. Indeed I think the assumption must be that they were not promised that, since otherwise the author asking if they were would not make much sense. If OpenAI did use the conversations

Ok - I don't know about the steam refunds policy. So I received a partial benefit. Perhaps I should get a partial refund? btw I wasn't being facetious, I just thought you picked the easiest part to respond to so I wondered if you

What deterministic tool will validate that a citation faithfully represents the cited claim?
28.
by tempfile 24d ago
I don't think this is an answer. I'm basically claiming there is an uncontrollable error probability, and I think you agree with that. The person I'm replying to implies it can always be reduced (maybe even to zero).

Isn't the reason obvious? You said the jury is supposed to lack domain knowledge. Domain knowledge apparently includes knowing the possible sentence. The given example is a case where knowing the possible sentence would alter the verdi
