Nonsense, the reluctance of governments to reduce carbon emissions has been driven by the reluctance for entrenched industries to give up their gravy train. There are many ways for power to be produced with lower carbon emissions, it's

I understand the article - the point about 'learning' is that if the model and its outputs are a derivative works then the copyright belongs to the human creators of the works it was trained on. Edit*: Or perhaps put more pseudo l

I think that it's absurd that we've jumped to the conclusion backpropagation in neural networks should be legally treated the same as human learning. I mean I don't think think I could find a better description for following

Sure as a word it can be broad, as a concept in our legal system that should be much more nuanced. The relevant extension of your analogy is should birds be required to obey FAA rules? Or should plane factories be protected as nesting sites

Actually despite your skepticism Tesla's PR spin has already beaten you. "but autopilot still lowers the death rate on average" That's not what they said, they said the death rate was lower than the average. And yet yo

I don't think it's going to emerge without significant effort to make it happen. I think most of the 'intelligence' we desire will be attainable without sentience. Sentience itself will require a lot of specific research

Right there with you on this, love react's rendering model. Redux seems to get all the hype but I'm sort of beginning to suspect it might be mostly the wrong way to do things. It reminds me of TDD, most of the benefits seem to be

Yeah but in defence of the guy you're replying to, once you render them they are 2d images.

You can try it yourself with commercial software: http://www.123dapp.com/catch Scale can be hard to capture in photogrammetry, but in general the unrealness probably has more to do with the somewhat smoothed out (triangulat

Serious eats food lab recipes are fun and effective. Additionally very highly rated food network or taste recipes are usually good and simple.

Oh sure it's a particularly human conceit that that number be exactly 1. But it certainly might be that the number is low enough that it will be very very hard for us to ever detect or interact with other life.

Wait what? "Why not? URIs are at least able to be tokenized perfectly well by a regular expression." "5. Bonus critique, anything using regular expressions to URL-encode or decode is very suspicious; strongly prefer built-in

"boring but safe." But seriously, the most important part of that sentence 'safe' is absolutely unproven.

"but in comparison it will never fail as often as human do" Ok I know this is my little cause of the moment, but seriously why are computers apriori better at anything? Sure they don't make poor life choices but they are abso

Here's a probably equally badly made statistic. Tesla estimates their cars had driven 130 million autopilot miles before the fatality. Some googling suggests the first non-autopilot Tesla S fatality was in july 2014 and this graph ( h

"I should add a note here to explain why Tesla is deploying partial autonomy now, rather than waiting until some point in the future. The most important reason is that, when used correctly, it is already significantly safer than a pers

I consider myself part of nerd culture, it's not an insult. The whole point of Ethereum is to build something black and white, but it isn't there yet. Either way this is a failure - the failure of the DAO to operate how the makers

by greendestiny 10y ago
Yeah but in reality letting half the DAO be siphoned off is vastly worse for the promise of smart contract cyptocurrency. So the 'messy' solution is the better one for what you want, but that'll never stop nerd culture seeing

There are crop dusters that fly close to the ground and obstacles - do you want to get in a manual one or can I code up a computer controlled one and put you in it? What you really mean is you want to see safety data and a track record. As

Do you? Can I wire an old iphone into the control system of your car and fire up opencv and a bit of depth estimation and lane following send you off?

Once again Tesla have made the discussion about the driver. They have put an auto-control system out in the wild that steers the car into hard obstacles at high speed. Beeps to warn the driver at some stage in the preceding interval do not

If planes had to fly within centimetres of hard barriers there would be no autopilot.

If CSW had no ability to sign real messages then he simply would have left his proof at duping individuals and having them vouch for him. It would have certainly worked well enough to drum up some investors and run off with their money. So
