That's not what I mean. If competitors can offer tokens 15x cheaper, the big labs must have high margins per token. (which they can use to amortize training costs) >Sam Altman himself conceded that OpenAI is losing money on the $200

Unfortunately, the government doesn't want to ban data brokers because the government wants to buy from data brokers.

This is a really weak claim. The evidence they offer is just "someone somewhere says they had a discussion with AI about the topic at some point". They don't even claim to have had a proof, only to have been working on it.

Probably not. It's a millennium prize problem, a great many mathematicians have been working on it for a very long time.

That other researcher was working on a smaller related problem. He was also using LLMs to do it, so either way most of the credit goes to the LLM here.

The prize is what, a million dollars? OpenAI doesn't need a million dollars.

Nothing about this uses AI in any way. I'm so tired of people injecting it into every conversation.

The point of Lean is that it can be mechanically verified by a proof checker.

How exactly does this help them? There is a lot of competition in the gift/trinket space. You could buy that birthday present from any number of sellers. If seller #183 jacks up prices, you will go buy from seller #765 instead.

Keep in mind that there is still a downwards force on prices from competition. More information does not necessarily help AutoZone raise prices because (1. everybody already knows that people who buy car parts are likely trying to fix their

Greed and money aren't helping. There is no single cause for anything. But the fact that both liberals and conservatives think of the other as 'evil' is a large problem.

Well, historically, it's sort of worked out on its own. Automation displaces workers but also creates new jobs in other sectors. We have maintained full employment at higher wages. That said, some displaced workers have experienced sub

It's not going to end humanity. We're going to use it to do incredible things that would otherwise be forever beyond our ability - a post-work economy, science fiction technologies, advanced mathematics, etc.

You should never trust any image-based method for mushroom identification. It is simply not possible to identify mushrooms from image alone, no matter how good your LLM is.
