Funny you should try and spin the conversation off into climate change to avoid answering the question. Big AIs contribution to climate change likely has a much more tangible route to killing millions of people and destroying society and th

Do you think they’re exaggerating (again) or do you think they should taken at face value and treated as hostile actors?

I'm reasonably sure/hopeful all of these discussions will be as important as people's discussions about whether using vim makes you a real programmer or not. "Does it work" is what matters. We already know that &quo

Nothing to do with special hacks with operators. The reason it's useless because the precondition is never true. "If my aunt had two wheels and a handlebar then she'd be a bicycle" Is the same problem with a non maths fl

OpenAI and Anthropic are so far ahead of anyone else in terms of compute demand generation. Iirc correctly they're like 70% of GPU demand between them on hyperscalers and then Meta is 10% and Google internal demand is some distance beh

I present to you my new theorem as follows: If 1 == 3 then 3 == 3 ---- This statement is 100% logically coherent internally. But it also doesn't matter because we know that 1 does not equal 3 so this proof is completely pointless. I co

This isn’t me advocating for maximum paranoia. I’m just saying that the “privacy” aspect of the API pricing is just a business promise. I do personal coding on API pricing with Claude mainly because a) I’m normally using it quite sparingly

You are reacting emotionally and making baseless accusations about how I’m somehow going to be “left behind” based on nothing much in particular. And this is in response to me questioning it’s not a bit absurd to dismiss thousands of member

1. People didn’t wear that as a badge of honour though. 2. A lot of it wasn’t. Low quality code/speed serves a purpose for point solutions and scripts etc. That’s not the same thing as writing a core system and if the user doesn’t put

Most people it's good at syntax and the error messages give you a good loop. But the domains rust actually makes sense in tend to be quite punishing on slop both culturally and technically.

If you have work happening in a part of your latent space that's got a much lower representation in your dataset then it's pretty plausible to include it. It doesn't actually matter who the user is if there's not a lot o

That's exactly the argument of the people calling it plagiarism machines. No-one ever really did refute it there was just a bunch of settlements for elite institutions so they weren't left empty handed like the various small time

If the work done is just "we made other people's work searchable without their consent" it's not quite the same as what they're implying in the marketing of "our model solved this problem".

A time posted sort is an algorithm too. But that's obviously not what's meant here even if the "gotcha" is there for that too. It's the combination of profitability motivations and manipulation of dopamine responses

This will do as much to solve your problem as talking to Google on why a search result was bad. Even if they agreed they won't change their coffee machine while you're there and they won't rehire more skilled staff etc etc.

Yes. At least, the manufacturing of compute is. And a lot of the chain has been bitten hard by increasing capacity prematurely in the past so they're reticent to increase bandwidth at vast cost.

It's on the people pushing AI as the panacea that has changed things to show workings. Not someone saying "I've not seen evidence of it". Otherwise it's "vibes" as you put it.

That's still actuating using existing infrastructure that already existed. I agree with the summarise + decide part maybe being quicker sometimes but the bottleneck remains collection and collation and actioning infrastructure
