Since when has intelligence had a strong relationship to status and respectability? I've met intelligent people that don't get much respect or status either because they don't look good, are shy or they don't have money.

True, but the relationship is certainly not linear and not a Markov process. Also, the $$$ a company makes are rarely directly translated to incentives for developers. I remember a case where a company was doing an OK engineering/produ

How come? the github page says the license is MIT.

I kind of agree with you at this point. When ChatGPT was rapidly gaining popularity I thought that they will eventually replace search (esp. for shopping), which would have given them a huge ad revenue. Maybe they could have even tried soci

Yes, I can imaging that a robot chef holding a knife improperly is already dangerous enough even if it does not move (e.g., what if you trip and fall against the pointed knife)

Cool! Does anyone have a list of challenges that must be tackled before such humanoid robots become usable for tasks such as household chores, cooking etc?

In Azimov's Robot series the society that chose to live with robots gradually destructed itself by just living longer and not having so many children. The other part of humanity that avoided robots flourished (not without suffering). B

Apprenticeship. You will have to prove to the company that working at a minimal wage is still beneficial. Or we can take it even further, you will have to pay the company for getting the necessary experience. Maybe you sign a 5 year contrac

30+ minutes is a gross underestimation IMHO. It is probably somewhere in the range 1:10, 10:100, especially if you include the cost of context switches a senior has to do. In my experience, the loss of flow, due to context switch is very pr

someone still will, but quality will become really expensive

Then there will be no one to buy the robots :)

I wonder why did they release it then.

by kavalg 7mo ago
Unless you can provide a (community) curated list of sources to search through (e.g. using MCP). Then I think local models may become really competitive.

You are completely right about the polyphonic expressivity of piano. What I lack is the intonation (bending) of tone.

This is very interesting! I can't wait to run it on some of my own compositions...

I do care. Please, give me a couple of such good recruiters if you know them.

Same experience too. Even in some cases the AI was harmful, leading me into rabbit holes that did not pay off, but lost a whole day trying out.

In the beginning of my career, I've been once told by my senior management that I should never again: 1. Optimize things so that they work 10 000 times faster because it makes us look incompetent (must be done slowly to show gradual pr

Perception changes with every next generation. For the last 8 years, I've been teaching at the Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics at our University. One of the courses that I lead is IoT, where students get to program on bare metal

Kudos for your company and job description! Your stack and approach look very straightforward and refreshing. The only thing that kind of put me off was the on-site in Tanzania :) (I am sensitive to the risk of contracting malaria).
