higher IQ people <-- well you have to prove that first, so let me ask you a test question to prove them: how can you mix collaboration and competition in society to produce the optimal productivity/conflict ratio ?

The censorship here in China is only about public discussions / spaces. You cannot like have a website telling you about the crimes of the party. But downloading some compressed matrix re-spouting the said crimes, nobody gives a damn.

An interface is a layer of translation between two things. In Object oriented programming, it's a contract between two encapsulated modules: you define how one should be used, without exposing internals, and the other will have only th

America went from a land populated by people so weak they were decimated by foreign soldiers on horses, to the strongest army in the world. It evolved, positively ?

And in one thought, I found that LLM can't yet pass that imaginary experiment, yes. So I would argue what we already know: LLM are not thinking lol. I can distinguish them, they're not gonna trick me, or play with me.

That seems a little bit dangerous, why not do it in a language you know ? Plus, this is not launching rockets on the moon, it's a sentence splitter with a fancy state machine (probably very useful in your niche, not a critique) - the d

"Are you an LLM?" poof, fails the Turing test. Even if they lie, you could ask them 20 times and they d reply the lie, without feeling annoyed: FAIL. LLMs cannot pass the Turing test, it's easy to see they're not human.

Zoom out: 200 years ago they were killing each other over slavery, 400 years ago, there was no american society. The trend is up, but they're in a local minimum :D

Imagine in that future world you describe, how immensely valuable a human artist will be: originality, wit, brilliance, their design will completely conquer any competitor generating the slop you dream of.

Yeah, we all own all code, if we can't understand the code we own, we study it. If we need to change it, we change it. "Legacy" for me is a bad word. I refuse to use it, and I scold my colleagues when they do: it's our c

Well yeah you have to look at the entire training duration for your brain. It did take a while to be as perfect as you seem to be, several billion years, and I'm sure you make mistakes sometimes and hallucinate stupid ideas. And don&#x

What are you saying, I'm in China it's completely false. There is very lax enforcement, and if there is enforcement, there's always an opportunity to bribe. The communist party doesn't have "access" to a billio

It is normal, you add a layer between the two brains that communicate, and that layer only add statistical experience to the message. I write letters to my gf, in English, while English is not our first language. I would never ever put an L

I'm in a new budding relationship and we're exchanging letters. There is no way in Earth I touch chatgpt, but if I write well, how believable is it ? Is she ? I hate this thing, it's so soul-less.

They're not very smart then: most non-native people know there are several big mainstream ways to spell English, and we learn that on top of our own languages. Couldn't American schools teach English the same way, like, that there

We learn both, tbh... And then get confused all our life, it's not like we choose one style in school, school teaches us that English actually has two dominant spellings and here is the American, here is the British and deal with it. N

This feels wrong, I work in China in a European multinational with low number of Americans, yet we all spell in a mixture with no expectation of consistency: half the sentence can be in British, the rest in American and it will be an Austra
