You're absolutely right. It's not intelligence in the way we have traditionally understood it. It's a pattern matching system that uses massive scale to handle a vast number of cases, and it's very useful, but it routine

What a basket case this lady sounds like. The venn diagram of people who are OK with a relationship with a polyamorous sex worker who brags about getting gangbanged for her birthday, and the group of stable, emotionally secure, successful m

Is this really so much of a shocker? Video games are awesome. They're one of the best things about living in the information age. In an overcrowded, unequal and stressful time to be alive, it's awesome to have an escape - a portal

If Google is able to ignore the pressure to bring in revenue from AI and is able to outcompete the others at automating AI research itself, I think they will win the war. It seems that they certainly have an advantage, with limited pressure

I really don't think this is a likely outcome in the 'several quarters' timeframe. The world just spent 2.5 decades going onto Google. There are so many small business owners out there who hate technology... so many old peopl

I wouldn't bother with the official Gemini app. I don't know why Google even bothers with it at this point. I only interact with 2.5 through AI studio and it's great through that interface.

I mean yeah, of course they could. That's probably exactly what's happening. I'm not aware of any laws against it unfortunately, previously we relied on Presidents to do what is best for the nation rather than their friends,

I think Grok is the best for asking about current events but I kind of hate how it always tries to turn everything into a conversation. But that's just my opinion! What do you think is the most annoying feature about Grok? ^ like that.

Isn't the brain kind of just a predictor as well, just a more complicated one? Instead of predicting and emitting tokens, we're predicting future outcomes and emitting muscle movements. Which is obviously different in a sense but

The media FUD around top tax brackets continues to astound me. I'm seeing articles saying that taxes will be hiked for "the richest americans." And then you look into it and they're actually talking about the highest ear

This is such crap. It's just like the Replit CEO saying that software engineering is dead, or Altman saying AGI is imminent. They're stating a version of the future that they would like to appear because that would be the best out

Pretty cool. Notebook LM is one of the best AI tools I've used. My friends love playing really complicated board games with big rule books and I've had a lot of success uploading the rule book PDFs to notebook LM to quickly resolv

There's no theoretical limit. That's what the concept of a "zero day" is all about. It's entirely possible that some undiscovered vulnerability allows an attacker to remotely hijack your entire PC, steal all passwor

Google screwed up so massively in this whole AI race. It blows my mind that they had the technology available internally years before OpenAI released ChatGPT but didn't do anything with it and in fact lost top talent due to their hesit

Episode 1 of this series was just god awful, I couldn't even make it through the episode. What is it about this show that's so good? From ep 1 it seemed like kind of a shitty cheesy procedural crime show.

I picked up the old blade 18 during the pandemic and I was very happy with it. Great build quality, comparable to a mac. Best windows laptop I ever owned. But I have 2 friends who also got blades (not the 18) and had nothing but problems wi

How could you possibly glean that from my comment? It was both city and highway driving.

I do think that XMR is the one crypto (at least that I'm aware of) that actually delivers on the original vision. But that's exactly why governments despise it. It's very difficult to buy. I am really into the tech behind XMR

I'm glad you've had good experiences with it. The experiences I've had are not great, to say the least. I rode in my friend's Model Y over the holidays and it drove slower than all other cars on the road to an unsafe lev

I know it's common for everyone to shit on Google here on HN, but I have to say, I do like the AI overviews. They're easy to ignore and sometimes helpful... and I've seen lots of non-tech friends and family using them. I real

Congrats on your success! Making games is what got me into programming and while I'm currently doing the same big tech stuff you were, I would love to become an indie game dev after this phase of my career ends. The biggest challenge I

It does feel liberating to me after you get through security and you have nothing to do except just chill and wait for boarding. There's no sense of guilt, no sense that you should be doing something that you're not.

Lol, is that all you people can ever come up with? "I disagree, therefore you're a Nazi?" Hasn't the events of the past 6 months shown you that this dumb "gotcha" style debating doesn't work?

There's a big difference between outsider activists protesting the actions of a company, and the actual leadership of a company choosing a less profitable path in order to seem more morally pure.

Because "not wanting" to do something that would make the company money due to moral considerations that aren't shared by your competitors is idiotic.

The measure is stock returns in the last 5 years. The whole point of public companies is to generate wealth for shareholders and Google just simply isn't really delivering on the same level as Palantir. In fact, when you look at the la
