YouTube channel Regular Car Reviews also predicted this ca 3 months ago. So now it's here. Or.. there? How's the situation in the EU?

I mean his post boils down to "Get on the bandwagon because you might otherwise miss out. All the cool kids do AI now." There are valid concerns there (and you should probably be playing around with LLMs), but he voiced none of th

Dude this site is so funny at times. Incredible. Yes, why would you ever address someone with something that is not in their best interest. Especially people that have power. I agree. We should never do that and let them just live in peace

I would expect that there could be some reputational damage coming from a written confession to fraud. "This company is known for this kind of fraud" even though it isn't. But the paper says it is.

Why would you ever ever ever on record "take full responsibility" for something you did not actually do? If a person does that, then that's dumb. But a company? Don't you have like a legal department or similar telling y

Given that LLMs are currently the frontier of innovation in our industry, it does make sense to me that most stuff that happens and gets talked about would be somehow connected to it. There's a lot of focus on in. People are trying it

Question is how many of those experts one needs to keep in vram for a given workload. I could imagine (though I might be _very_ wrong there) that for example coding does not live in all of them. Maybe 1/3? Do we have real numbers there

I hate to say it, but I do not see how else a nation state could act. The goal of a state is stability. The free, open, anonymous global internet otoh is a force of change. The west really liked that, back when it was useful to its geopolit

Likely dead due to obvious LLM writing. I would suspect that the (auto)moderation is working as intended there.

The global internet is - effectively - over. It will eventually also officially be declared as such, but it might be a while until we see that. Mark and his kind killed it, but, to be fair, it wasn't exactly hard to kill something that

Why do these things exist? I mean I do understand the appeal of the idea of folding smartphones, but I did not hear about any miracle material breakthroughs lately. So.. how can this exist? Why does it say that it is durable, when it has to

In a way, that might also be driven by the huge ego (or really rather the very small ego) a _lot_ of people in tech have. Who doesn't want their work and what they're doing to matter? This is the ultimate mattering. And with that,

It is my pet theory that a lot of these AI doomers are not necessarily extrapolating the capabilities of LLMs, but instead are extrapolating the utter lack of accountability in the SV and the economy at large. They do not fear the machine (
