And the brain is literally only producing electrochemical signals. I don’t see how tokens can’t produce speech or track metabolic needs. You can talk to chatgpt can’t you? Or do you mean literally talking? Because that’s not a brain functio

It would be different if AI was known to be reliable but it isn’t, so this is less of a random failure and more a symptom of jagged intelligence. And with every one of these there’s always an attempt to minimize the problem by saying it’s j

Is being asked to read a clock really a gotcha?

I’ve been learning houdini recently, and I have to agree. In terms of nodes and simulation, Houdini is still lightyears ahead of blender. I say this as someone who loves blender and views the programs as complementary. But still, I was shoc

That suggests a straightforward mapping between context -> program. Maybe for trivial programs but I don’t see how you can argue that for sufficiently complex programs. Reasoning models perform better than non-reasoning models because th

MIT is simple, open, and common which is a big benefit for indie projects, small studios, and anyone with limited legal resources. It means there’s lots of info on the internet explaining how to use the license and they can be relatively ce

I find this whole conversation baffling. Licenses and contracts are not a replacement for being a decent person.

Because there’s a clear mismatch between the value generated from Box2d vs the value the creator receives, and that’s common for open-source in general. It would be common decency to donate even a small portion of that $500 million, even if

The root level comment is talking about their general vision of healthcare. We’re talking about ideal goals here. Whether midjourney helps with those goals or not is a related, but different conversation thread.

The only relevant implication is the word “useful”. Clearly we want useful data, that’s obvious.

Because we’ve been able to spend more and more on the next miniaturization. That does not seem infinitely sustainable or even physically possible to sustain indefinitely.

Capitalism is trending towards uncertainty. - Job security is getting lower. - Insurance is getting spotty, will this be covered? Maybe? - Companies are testing dynamic pricing. - The rise of prediction markets. Eventually the economy is go

I think people are sick of hearing about AI but they’ll embrace this change for the simple reason that they hate computers and want to feel like they’re taking to a human.

I think this will be one of those things that the hacker news crowd lambasts and calls a mistake but will either be neutral or seen as a positive to your average user.

Do you have any idea how much it costs to build a frontier model and how much money it takes to enable R&D at the cutting edge?

Yeah self-interest occurs across different time scales and consists of a mixture of logical and emotional factors. It’s also subjective and dependent on the persons values, beliefs, etc.
18.
by CooCooCaCha 4mo ago
Self-interest includes chemical dependence and emotional satisfaction. The broader point is that self-interest is not purely logical because humans are not purely logical beings.

Appeals to individualism and capitalism, why am I not surprised.

I’m so intensely sick of this attitude. We are losing things with technology. Important things. Human things. Looking under a microscope at one specific instance and saying “eh it’s not that bad, you’re overreacting” is disingenuous or at l

Anthropic recently changed their take-home test specifically to be more “out-of-distribution” and therefore more resistant to AI so they can assess humans. I’m so tired of “there’s nothing preventing”, and “humans do that too”. Modern AI is

So there’s no difference at all? Making everybody have brown hair is the same as giving everyone down syndrome?
23.
by CooCooCaCha 5mo ago
All analogies are flawed and I think you’re taking the wrong message here. If doctors gave mothers a vaccine that prevented down syndrome, at a high level, that would be the same as putting an anti-down syndrome drug in the water supply. Th

by CooCooCaCha 5mo ago
This post is about curing down syndrome though. Saying “but they’re happy” in this context is implying that we shouldn’t try to cure it, which is obviously ridiculous.

by CooCooCaCha 5mo ago
If I told you I put a chemical into the water supply that gave people brown hair you’d probably think I am weird and stupid but not evil. If I told you the chemical gave people down syndrome you’d probably think I am evil. Whenever these to

Taste isn’t a social construct, it’s a function of how your brain is structured/wired. How it’s applied is a social construct.

by CooCooCaCha 7mo ago
I disagree taste is a very real thing and there are multiple levels to taste from shallow and easily changed, to deep and relatively constant. Shallow taste is stuff like popular trends that come and go, and hating the taste of beer until y

Depends on what you think is valid. The process you’re describing is humans extending our collective distribution through a series of smaller steps. That’s what the “shoulders of giants” means. The result is we are able to do things further

It’s really not that crazy. React itself is a frontend-agnostic library. People primarily use it for writing websites but web support is actually a layer on top of base react and can be swapped out for whatever. So they’re really just using

CoT is upstream of building a chess engine. Chess engines don’t grow on trees, they’re built by intelligent systems that can think, namely human brains. Supposedly we want to build machines that can also think, not just regurgitate things c
