Even a teleoperated version can command a huge market. Think millions of robo butlers operated by gig workers from low income countries.

Wasnt there a paper a few months back, Textbooks are all you need. yes found it https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.11644 So search engines in their traditional sense will be obsolete anyway. 1) GPT-4 and other such LLMs will g

There are weaker formal systems like Presburger arithmetic (peano without multiplication) and Skolem arithmetic (peano without addition) that have been proven to be complete and consistent. Tarski also showed that there are formal systems f

While willpower may work for some people, what actually works for me (and i believe the majority of people) is self-deception or distraction. To sleep, use white noise/rhythmic music/soothing voice To climb a mountain, tell yourse

Rather than asserting that current LLMs are at their tail end, or that AI isnt good enough, it is much more instructive to check what are the bottlenecks or constraints to further progress, and what would help remove these bottlenecks. They

one (quite convincing) theory is that anything that can be achieved by a carbon-based neural network (eg. human brain) can also be achieved by a silicon-based neural network. The hardware may change, but the hardware's software express

How can a declining population selling mostly commoditized goods support ever increasing property prices, that too when property is already overleveraged!! This crash was always on the cards. Just a matter of when, and the when may have fin

I get the feeling the article preaches to the choir. The serious sources have always portrayed NIF's work as technical achievements. But they are read mostly by scientist and engineer types. Mass media which hypes things is read, well

I like the fact that Andrew is very transparent and honest about his experiments. Although he didnt explain 1) how did the Fe impurities get localized into certain regions of the overall batch. 2) Were the impurities quantitatively enough i

Not going to say US behavior is morally sound in this case, but - US has provided significant financial assistance here, and if it doesnt get any say in return, it has no incentive to provide continued help. - As far as hegemons so, US has

We can debate about expressions/terminology, but these three countries are very very closely aligned with the US. Ofcourse its mutually beneficial. A joke a military contact cracked once is that the only diff between these three and gu

Lets not drag Japan into this. They have very high standards in research despite the few examples you gave here, some of which are not even science related. As a widely accepted measure of this, you can read about the many nobel laureates f

It would only be logical if Chinese intent also matched its capabilities, which remains to be seen. Anyone can talk a big game.

Yes but both sides can play the game of blocking cargo. Malacca strait comes to mind.

All what you said may be true, but ASML would still be foolish to trust and export to China, given that the latter is hell bent on copying and reverse engg its products, even if unsuccessfully for now. Dont assist even your incompetent adve

Lets just say semiconductor manufacturing is the best example of regional competencies and global trade. Globalization has failed on many fronts and resulted in race to the bottom outcomes, but here it works well due to specialization. Havi

No,even though the 10 pikachu fans assess independently, their estimations will be correlated. As you may already know the overall estimate wont be 100%, rather about 65%. The formula when the assessors are known to be independent, is simp

Alright lets do some calculations. Feel free to dissect the assumptions. K event = Kim says Material L is RTSC D event = DFT says L is RTSC S event = L is actually RTSC we have assumed P(S/K) and P(S/D) are each 0.1, though we cou

You are right, but probability estimation of possibly novel phenomena is an ill posed problem. So either you do not model it at all, or come up with some mental model of what probability you are comfortable with and due to which factors; th

There are 2 things in favor of the Korean team - Hyun-Tak Kim is unlikely to ruin his career and legacy for something careless and frivolous. But stranger things have happened, so lets assign a 10% probability to give some benefit of doubt

The point is not whether it takes one week or two weeks. But eastern competition is fierce, and the western world is mired in esg and bureaucracy. Something is rotten at a general level, and if its not fixed soon, this trend of lagging behi

A question that arises, how good is chemical vapor deposition (albeit a very expensive way and hence for labwork only) in creating a pure sample with proper Cu substitutions?

I may be wrong, but it seems.. US labs dont find replication work exciting enough. If the effect is genuine, good, if not, life goes on. Chinese labs are looking to build credibility, so they will benefit by publicly resolving this.

note that f_n = (a^n + b^n) / sqrt(5) ~ a^n / sqrt(5) the denominator is important. also another interesting relation is a^n ~ f_(n+1) + f_(n-1) = f_(n+2) - f_(n-2)
