If your focus is that sensitive to disruption, an unfiltered list of internet links is also likely to be disruptive, especially with the quality of search these days.

"Somewhat" is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting. Fakery has gone from handcrafted in small batches (or at worst, produced through much effort in sweatshops) to fully automated and mass produced.

I don't think this would solve the problem, unfortunately. AI can certainly be coerced into reproducing an existing image, leaving plenty of room for probable deniability.

As long as the AI people stay in their lane and work on their own projects, they're not getting yelled at. This is ignoring that AI has enough proponents to have enough projects of significant size. And even if they're getting sho

Why would we not? If they were so effective, their effectiveness would be apparent, inarguable, and those making use of it would advertise it as a demonstration of just that. Even if there were some sort of social stigma against it, AI has

The crazy thing is that people think that a model designed to predict sequences of tokens from a stem, no matter how advanced the model, to be much more than just "really good autocomplete." It is impressive and very unintuitive

Video embeds can be made to autoplay, browsers typically don't block them if the video is muted, and JS can be used to nudge them along if they do. With the automatic conversion of GIFs into video, this also isn't a property that

GIF is a format from the 1980s that has not changed or improved one bit since. It's limited to a 256-color palette per frame, which on top of looking bad, will massively bloat your file size as a common strategy to make it look less ba

I'd be interested to understand why. From my perspective, it'll only get peoples hopes up before letting them down, which does not associate good emotions with your product.

You'll also want to remove the GitHub link. It's been a long time since 2021.

Probably. Isn't Expressive also the people that touted being Open Source til that didn't live up to their unrealistic expectations?

Git repos on software forges are structured, polite, easy to process, and are ubiquitous. You can provide additional information very easily with simple existing tools to enhance learning. Like I said, the web's the wild west. It'

Sure, they could. But why would they? It's the wild west out there and there's barely anything you don't already have. Maybe add support for some of the larger code forges, but anything smaller than that is too small to bothe

There's a 7B mentioned in the chat arena ELO graph, I don't see any other references to it though.

Don't disagree at all. It was never promised that LLMs could do what he's trying to do. But just because he's holding it wrong doesn't mean that he's not holding it.

That is what vibe coding is. The tweet says "It's not too bad for throwaway projects" but that does not limit the definition, it only limits the advisable application of it.

Even limiting its scope can be risky, if it's a complex problem in a niche that's not well-represented in the training data. Been learning Gleam lately, and yesterday when wrapping my head around recursion was starting to give me

At least currently, the only use pattern that can withstand complex codebases is as advanced speech-to-text, but without the speech if that makes sense. The main issue with that is phrasing things in English is often far more verbose, so wi

One of the very first examples published by GPT-2, the model that started the "too dangerous to be open anymore" trend, was a fake news article about the discovery of unicorns in the Scottish mountains. It's been part of Open

I believe it'd be pretty wonky coloring, or at least it could be, since it'd be capturing snapshots of individual frequency responses. If something is visibly green, reflecting across most of the greenish areas of spectrum, but ha

None of that gives me any useful spatial sense of where . "Payment terminal." Okay. Where is it? Left? Left where? How much left? How far? The only truly useful bits I see in your stream of text is, again, "Cream of Mushroom

It might be useful for telling Cream of Chicken from Cream of Mushroom, but for locomotion I can't see this adding anything over existing strategies people use to get around sans sight. "There's a tree. There's a tree. T

Where are the studies supporting this claim? A random person on the internet saying "prob higher IQ" is not a convincing argument.

There are clear factual errors in the underlying assumptions of what was stated about water fluoridation. Those are simply table stakes for having a discussion about anything at all. If one thinks that water fluoridation is useful "jus

by jdiff 1y ago
The questions you posed are not questioning fluoride, they're asking what the basic premise even is. If you don't understand that, you are far from the position needed to be evaluating and analyzing the necessity or benefits of it

"For the few seconds people brush their teeth"? That's not how fluoridated drinking water works. Fluoridated water works all of the time, not just when brushing teeth, and it's not a vital chemical that the body craves.

Both can be true. There can be nothing physically or metaphysically "special" about human cognition, and at the same time, we can also be very, very far away from creating even a holistic facsimile. We've got echoes of it i

It is a severe reach to say that AI can provide human connection. At best, it can provide the illusion, for some. And for those people, I'm not going to say that that's not valuable or legitimate for them. But it's pushing it
