Perhaps there are other mechanisms at play here? What about the AMOC collapse. IF too much heat disrupts some weather patterns which are heating the northenr emisphere, that would mean an increase in the ice cover again and therefore more h

The Xbox series S is very convenient for me: it fits neatly in the TV stand which is quite slim.

I'm wondering: are there any simulator games in which you have to take care of the stability of a nation-wide power grid? This whole situation has me interested in logistics of power distribution now.

I don't think I will ever use Lisp but I love the way this site documents different examples with all kinds of hardware. I wish there were more sites like these for other microcontroller/SoC languages like lua, mPython, Arduino de

That probably means it was trained on synthetic data, right?

HN.... I have an app on my phone that's called "Hews". It's morning and everything is confusing :(

As I sat down at my desk to start the work day and finish a dreaded task, my mind of course immediately drifted away and felt the urge to check some news on reddit or HW. I opened HW and this is the first title. "It can be done".

I am disappointed your comment did not have more responses because I'm very interested in deconstructing this argument I've heard over and over again. ("it just predicts the next words in the sentence"). While explanatio

2 minutes is quite fast, congrats. I inferred this information by seeing the number of comments on HN (a relevant parameter in estimating the importance of an event imo), the time period 2009-2023 and then immediately after clicking seeing

I didn't want to spend time reading that wall of text, so I wanted a summarized version of it. Asked ChatGPT (4) to do it for me and it told me that Omegle is not going to close. My intuition told me otherwise, so the irony is that I s

Sorry but I have to ask. In what kinds of contexts did you become experienced? Is LSD in at least a gray area anywhere on earth? The country I come from that is an illegal drug, but it being a neuroplasticity enhancer is what attracted my a

I also like the rephrased paragraph. There's a certain flow to it, I never learned or improved my skill in that area.

> The risk is more in the LLMs themselves, as whoever gets to control them gets to decide how people are going to experience the world. For the time being I might still double check all the answers I get from ChatGPT, but overtime the LL

I am aware of that. I like to think that millenials/gen-z at least knew a little how to sift through the fake information, and the gullible people were the elders. But now with such obscene amounts of fake info at every corner, I thin

For now, this is just funny, I laughed. But with the advent of all these new open-source LLMs, it will get worse. If you thought people were gullible for falling for fake comments from bots, just wait for the near future. Post-factual&#x2F

CBDC is a another puzzle piece of a future dystopia. We're exchanging freedom for the sake of a security façade.

From what I understood they used 175 seed tasks as an example for da-vinci which then generated the 52K instructions used to fine-tune LLama. What I don't understand is how did they achieve giving this context to GPT, since afaik the c

But that skill you're describing here is equally trainable and it probably will be in the near future, such that a specialized Artist AI will immediately guess what you're after, and if not, present you several iterations. That Ar

Interesting! I suppose this uses gpt and/or midjourney/stable diffusion? I played a bit and it seems quite fun.

I remember having to write an essay in high school about playing & the human being. Then I assumed that playing is a privilege of the kids and young adults. Now, later in life, I've changed jobs not only for a better pay, but also

It'll get interesting once AI algos proliferate to other knowledge domains such as physics and engineering and start hallucinating solutions, as does GPT-3 now. Some of those solutions, adjusted and fine tuned, will have real world app

I'm highly suspicious of the fact that other life forms in the universe necessarily resemble our own, although I tend to think about some things that seem to be universal like the the laws of physics and organic matter. I'm not ye

My basic audio editing needs were always met by Audacity, but in the 2000s I used to use Goldwave for a specific need: ambient sounds that need to be played in a loop in Half-Life. I can't remember how it's done anymore, but you h

I have the same thoughts. Though after seeing The Matrix recently and the recent news about Facebook's Meta (or Meta's Facebook?), I begin to see what these NFTs will be used for. Simulacra and Simulation. I don't think a ra

Let's say I buy a collectible silver coin which is a limited edition emitted by the government or some entity. This has both value in that it's rare, and that it's made of silver and so can appreciate in value over time. Woul

I came to the comment section to better understand what's the opinion on NFTs too :)). I could see some edge-case uses with these NFTs, but I feel a lot of its usefulness is exaggerated. In my opinion, anything that's digital can
