And grok was secretly querying ChatGPT? Daisy chain of failures? Like a chain of kids copying the answers of the kid next to them? LOL. Is there an XKCD for that?

I'll perform these songs by AI in concerts if the price is right. And that's how AI starts to leak out into the physical world. AI also hires human workers to do tasks in the real world using Task Rabbit and similar apps.

For it to be brilliant, AI needs to be a benevolent tool all the time. It would take just a few malignant actors to turn our world upside. I suspect it'll follow the same Internet and social media path. Great at first, grow markets, br

That might not be practical/possible for early days but this does seem like a bridge to that natural next step that /u/dweekly is saying which would quickly phase out this Gibberlink protocol.

Try making nuggets from scratch. It’s so good and easy to do. Chicken tenders from breast meat. Egg seasoned with salt, pepper. Dunk into seasoned breading. Dunk into egg again and back to the breading. Pan fry. Yummy.

I would consider these launches test launches. Production is when they include commercial payloads and humans.

Yes! I forgot about this but I knew I've seen something very similar long ago also by Microsoft. I wonder if any Photosynth DNA got into this.

I think most of them are new to this type of nature so you're stuck in "is this normal? Am I in danger? If I run, will I look like a fool?" So you're standing there and looking for other people's reactions before ma

It will forever boggle me but the way I sort of rationalize it is that speed basically borrows energy from time. Something like that. So the faster you go, the slower the time goes. So if you go the speed of light, you're taking so muc

Probably John Coltrane was pissed but then realized, damn, that was really good music happening in there. Screw it, but i'm out as soon as the last note is done.

For me, it resonated strongly with me because I"m a middle aged Asian American with immigrant parents and I have young kids. It hits me in a lot of levels emotionally. I get why someone who doesn't share my background not get it.

Would you make that open source? I'm interested in this problem. I'm sure there are some OS bin packing algorithms but I not familiar with ones that have separation and linking rules.

This is interesting. What's the algorithm that you use to optimize?

Dark comedic thought: if a prerequisite to suicide is to get your affairs in order and leave behind a clean house, suicide would be very low; ugh, too lazy to clean. I'll just live instead.

Near-libelous is fitting. I'm a Bruce fanatic since childhood and there are a lot of personal accounts of Bruce and they never painted him as the guy in Tarantino's movie. I love Tarantino but that was bad. Tarantino likes to play

Yes, it's good to keep a good perspective by thinking our position relative to the world but relative to our surroundings and cost of living too. Probably living the US, we're near the top for expenditures/costs too.

this won't be a popular suggestion but it works for us: We got the grandparents Nest Home Hub display. It's LCD and there's a switch to disable mic and camera but it works really well for photo sharing.

If I was on Who Wants to be a Millionaire, I would've picked "just desserts" as my final answer without hesitation. TIL

This. Also, once the ChatGPT AI takes off and becomes ubiquitous, then what if there is a lack of credible content for it to train on?

Even with easy mode, this is way impossible. I like the idea but it's way too hard. Maybe turn it into a typing game where you simply keep the bird from falling into the ground.

IP? Patents? Other companies use those technologies and have to pay for commercial licenses? They can freeze out competitors? I don't know, just spitballing.

If you're interested in it, you still can do it. And coding required many hours STRAIGHT of uninterrupted time to dive deep. Something that you get less and less of as you get older. Plus the distractions (Hello Hackernews). I have a l
