There is no need for age verification: ban all mobile devices and access to anything vaguely "social" (and possibly porn) for everyone under 18. Place heavy fines. But it requires more guts than governments have. They get lobbied,

In a sense, but it is a bit more devious. It basically invalidates all past fMRI studies. Not that anyone should have taken those seriously, but it looks like another nail in the coffin. fMRI analysis is (was?) basically: squeeze each brain

The task was writing a "bot" to play the game. The title is "Kimi K2.6 just beat Claude, GPT-5.5, and Gemini in a coding challenge." How does that not imply measuring coding capabilities?

From what I understood, it's a coding challenge: the models wrote a player for that specific word game. E.g. https://github.com/rayonnant-ai/aicc/blob/main/wordgempuzzle...

This may be objectively scored, but it is not an indication of anyone's coding capabilities. This test measures which model almost accidentally came up with the best strategy (against other bots). This is not representative of coding.

Ok, but it still doesn't make much sense to me. Why would you let someone log in, get a shell and then forbid cat? I've been using Unix and Linux for more than 30 years now (and even some BSD) for various purposes, but there'

> dismissing the Manhattan Project as hopelessly stalled in 1944 Then again, there are enough examples of failed projects. Why should this be comparable to the Manhattan project? In 1944, it was only two years underway, whereas Shor&#x27

Some cleaning up is probably required. I opened the "regelrecht" repo, and it contains a bunch of links and references to github.

I'm not sure I get it. base64 is on the list. That can't do anything but read a file to which the user already has access, I think. Am I mistaken or does "a curated list of Unix-like executables that can be used to bypass loc

The West-German debate in the 70s came from the realization that the sheer size of the Holocaust/Shoah was in no small degree due to bureaucratic record keeping. Storing someone's ethnicity is potentially dangerous for that person

Isn't running the models for end users the biggest cost at the moment?

Do you use AI? For what?

It seems to me that --unless you really, strictly compartimentalize your browser usage--, using multiple browsers will only supply your data to more parties.

If you follow that definition, it can (and will) stop existing. Don't count on Sam Altman to keep your groceries affordable.

I guess you can't imagine a free, open democratic state with rule of law either. Because when broad, independent, quality journalism with a wide audience is gone, all you'll have to worry about is that poor cat in a tree in Ottawa

UBI is a phantom. If (when?) AI takes over and everyone is put on UBI, the problems we'll deem important will be finding enough food to survive.

Sure? The website points to an article in Nature with different authors. They seem to refer to the people from Tübingen, though.

You're making assumptions, and try to frame those as childish. I dislike the current AI offerings because of their inherent negative contributions to society. "I'm addicted to/invested heavily in AI, so any criticism is

Perhaps it saves some time looking through the docs, but do you really trust an LLM to do the actual work?

> except you get shafted That's the point, isn't it? Creating images via AI offers nothing to society. Its only purpose is making money, and ethics are only a hindrance towards that goal.

This wasn't even about that. It was about selling cigarettes to others, pretending to be a romantic rebel. And freedom isn't absolute. There's no need to exaggerate 1984 style just because smoking is banned. You don't ev

Shouldn't it also be able to read email? I think that was a law too. Anyway, the list seems like something AI scraped and has a strong bias towards "gotcha" comments from the likes of reddit.
