Maybe they are talking about physical mandalas?

Yeah, they're always leaving the Martians out!

Why doesn't someone just try to measure this next time!?

Very much like map CD-rom updates, I think a lot of people wouldn't mind paying per-update for these models, and would understand the implications. That is, if there weren't so many open models available.

Another example was the doc for GPT-5, which had all its graphs messed up, but they said it was human error rather than AI.

If the training toggle is switched on, maybe OpenAI doesn't consider a chat to be private? Therefore making this a 'safe' statement.

Exactly, and right now we have the worst of both worlds with companies blatantly ignoring copyright, but individuals prosecuted for violating it.

I think there are better funding models than the precarity of copyright-dependent publishing.

Not at all. You're presuming that nobody can be taken off this hypothetical salary once they're on it, and that they would be placed on it indiscriminately. Simple safeguards are already in practice in today's economy to prev

Right, that was worded too universally, but this is what I mean: royalties here are supplementary to a salary, not a wage in themselves. The research was funded before publication.

As with academics, inventors and artists should be paid for their labour long-term, not for their result.
12.
by Caracas288 15d ago
Academics don't collect any royalties, they're paid prior to publication, not for selling copies of books.

Authors and artists are not (and souldn't be) making Art for money. It is not a 'job' where effort goes in and product comes out. It's more like a religious calling, they often have no other option. That's true, but

Ah yes, now that you point it out that sounds reasonable. They missed a trick with their typeface, which could have made another nomative connection. Maybe Garamond just isn't web-safe enough.

There's no way the connection isn't intentional!

Man wouldn’t it be cool to be able to slot a massive ROM AI chip into the external AI drive of the pc…

There’s still time to get in on the ground floor! What an opportunity

The AIs are supposed to be very expensive, but it's left to the reader to figure out why—maybe it wouldn't work out that way in real life, but if the reader can't explore every part of the economic and technological space of

Ha! it pays to do a little research, I should have done so. So it's something like 'Thought for the Day' on the radio...

Definitely seems 20th century given the novelty around computers. The audio inclusion is beautiful, hardly see anything like that anywhere else, with music too.

It’s formatted strangely… an excerpt from the book at the bottom of the page? The authors don’t match. Or maybe that footnote’s for the images… It doesn’t need to be any longer; one of the ironic byproducts of our newest computer companions

The other way around, surely? The ‘ghost’ being the soul, absent in purely robotic beings. Yes, it’s hard to accept that for many, the notion of quality is conflated with uniformity of texture. It’s a fun website nevertheless, interesting p

Most people have a local view of their world through their immediate surroundings, not a panoptic or holistic perspective on the earth or their nation. The power of collective action via votes isn’t a bayesian system, its just like the sum

It would be interesting to see their internal guidance on LLM use. It’s a massive amount of new power that has to be wielded carefully. That kind of guidance might mean the survival or downfall of some big corps in the next few years.

It’s just waiting for the killer app, the Pokemon Go of cryptographic signing.
