I've been waiting for symbolic music generators for ages. This is so nice for musicians. Being able to intelligently translate parts, generate additional parts, generate sheet music from audio, generate variations on pieces, making pie

Spent some time playing on it just now on Linux. I couldn't easily get the automatic ingestion or gardening working, but everything else is working okay. For my workflows I think I actually prefer wiki updates being manual and deliber

This isn't as easy as it sounds. Every ML model is struggling to balance between generalization and test performance. Taking a good model like GLM5.2 and just fine tuning it on coding can decrease real world performance due to mechanic

Help me understand this viewpoint that AGI being possible in the near-ish future is a myth, I see it repeated quite a lot. I've been in NLP since the LSTM days and it's hard for me to look at LLMs and not just think they are incre

There doesn't really seem to be anything of substance in the actual executive order. Section 1 doesn't say anything Section 2 seems to boil down to: "improve cyber security and maybe use AI if we can find funding for it"

Are we looking at the same data? On that site I see that opus 4.7's and gpt 5.5's g scores are within each others confidence intervals, and both significantly ahead of the number 3 model. Your comment makes it sound like they are

An alternative explanation is that cold places with long winters are depressing, and because they are depressing fewer people want to live there. Alaskan winters are hard regardless of how many friends you have.

I had a similar experience recently, where I logged in to Facebook after not using it for years and was shocked by how much garbage was there. My spouse does use Facebook somewhat regularly so I looked at her feed and it was much more reaso

In practice you can use 2d generation on spheres with simple UV mapping techniques. Your pixel height becomes distance from the sphere origin.

I worked on something very similar for my master's degree. The problem I could never solve was the speed, and from reading the paper it doesn't seem like they managed to solve that either. In the end, for my work, and I expect for

Well, the US publishes numbers for a lot of its programs so we can see exactly how much is spent on the bureaucratic nightmare. Medicaid FY 2023 Budget: $900.3b ($620b federal, $280b state) [1] FY 2023 Budget not spent on benefits (admin ov

This exactly. For parents it is not a choice, you absolutely must have a parent sitting by a young child. The effect of not automatically putting parent and children next to each other would just be making tickets more expensive for parents

You're completely right, it is very similar to the western style credit score, and is often either accidentally or deliberately misrepresented. That being said, it covers behaviors not covered by western credit scores that does have el

I agree that the American understanding of the Social Credit System is flawed, but to suggest it doesn't exist is an extreme overreach. Furthermore, it clearly is a system that is important to the CCP and has an effect. From the Baidu

The nature of Chinese censorship makes it difficult to provide hard numbers, but it really is worse. America's handling of censorship is certainly not the best, and it has gotten worse recently, but it is not on the level of China.

To me, the point the friend is making is, just like you said, that you don't need to review every line of code in a package, just the interface. The author misses the point that there truly is code that you trust without seeing it. A

At least with traditional Chinese, reading isn't as bad as people make it out to be. A lot of characters are pictophonetic characters(形聲), where one element describes the sound and the other meaning. While not perfect they allow a read

Measure words in Chinese are great. They provide so much descriptive capacity in such a short simple way. 一棍棒, 一把棒, 一根盪, 一條棒, all would translate to English as "a stick", but they convey different perspectives about what that sti
