Way out of my wheelhouse but after reading this it leads me to believe "heal machines" like in elysium and other scifi movies may not be that much scifi after all.... block an ion channel here, send a signal there... poof, your ar

isnt this the whole point of what rust is trying to accomplish? i havent yet worked with rust but from what i hear they make it very hard (impossible?) to have memory issues and things like deadlocks. sounds great in theory but no idea if t

Sure, all tech has 'real' effects. It's kinda the definition of tech. But all of these concerns more or less fall into the category of "add it to the list of things you have to watch out for living in the 21st century&qu

lol how does something like this get only 50ish votes but some hallucinating video slop generator from some of the other competitors gets thousands?

yep, two week sprints with no break in between (I can't think of any sporting event where you sprint non stop!), and then we always say we'll "celebrate" when the project is done, but we never do just on to the next proj

Tell me about it. I'm really starting to get ticked off trying to wade through garbage hype and actual improvements across everything "AI"

and does even AGI change the bigger picture? we have 26.3 million AGIs currently working in this space [1]. I've never seen a single one take all the work of the others away... [1] https://www.griddynamics.com/blog&#x2F

I suppose here is the best place to ask: Isn't Moore's law capped by fundamental physics (i.e. tunneling effects once you get around / below 1nm sizes)? EDIT: did some snooping around, Moore himself said it in 2005: "We

> What if our LLMs fail to turn into AGI? This is nonsense statement in and of itself. Its like wondering why an orange fails to turn into a chicken. There are SO many missing pieces an LLM just doesnt have. LLMs could certainly be a sma

performance is great but i would imagine the paralellized version requires a significantly higher minimum amount of RAM than the non paralellized ways... he claims that each more perfomant solution is less compute cost than the one before i

I'm a huge Netlify fan, but stories like these are scary. Just spent the last hour building a custom serverless function that sends email / SMS at various bandwidth usages - potentially could be improved with an auto shutdown of t

That's exactly what my mind jumped to when seeing this (free IoT!), can almost expect someone will try to build some sort of automated video watcher to work around this caveat and abuse it :)

yeah i was going to say its unfair from the start... node is anyway a runtime for a language... go is a language in itself, and also happens to compile to something much more flexibly runnable...

A startup sized company using this many tools? They're for sure doing something weird (and that's not a compliment :) ) Totally on your side with this one - but alas, people associate value with complexity.

With absolutely no information about the future, there's actually no way to claim anything has a 'decent' chance.

I'm building a way to automate creation of software video lessons and courses, putting it all under the name 'CodeVideo'. One tool leverages OpenAI's whisper, as well as GPT3.5 or GPT4 for help with generating the steps
