It hasn't and likely never will because it is a structural part of how AI works. You can see proof of this if you ask it obscure enough questions. That doesn't mean obscure scientific questions, I asked it questions regarding ship

I warned people about 4 years ago that this would happen. Checking people's IDs online for accessing certain kinds of porn on telegram and Discord is much more popular than you would have thought. I told these admins this was immensely

Nuclear is indeed the answer. Nuclear power is incredibly safe nowadays and it also provides kinetic inertia, something that solar and wind power lack (they are all DC based and only produce AC when using an inverter, which is wasteful too)

Yes, it tells you that they're normal unlike people who are still arguing today how Musk didn't actually do a nazi salute.

I literally said I'm fine with using LLMs for the frontend, but I think this should be disclosed clearly.

The interface looks vibecoded. I have no problem with people vibecoding things. In fact, I have zero frontend skills, so I rely on AI to be able to make easy-to-use interfaces. However, I feel like this should be clearly and prominently dis

Yeah, I don't want background sync. I mean, iOS is built upon the idea that any task in the background might be killed at any time and without warning by the OS. This is so the OS is able to manage battery and memory effective. You can

No, it really is not that easy. Check out China, and read up on the Spanish housing crisis. "Just build more" works only sometimes, as demonstrated in those counter-examples. Housing is massive societal and sociological problem wi

I think it's a gimmick that Samsung will cut out in future models for cost savings reasons. Like Samsung ditched the edge displays, or the Bluetooth in their S-Pen, or like Apple ditched 3D touch.

I care. Online forums are for humans to share ideas around. Not for bots to farm karma.

State of the art literally just means that it is the latest and most capable, compared with peers. As such, China launched DeepSeek R1, and they kind of broke the web, because it was pretty good compared with OpenAI, but also fully self-hos

I do not consider removing redundant sensors like lidar or infrared from the comprehensive Tesla sensor network and pretending that cameras can do FSD perfectly a good example of engineerring.

Canada will suffer greatly, and possibly much more than the US. But appeasing US, in the position of Canada, is akin to trying to reason with a wife beater. You don't reason. You remove the victim from the hands of the aggressor. It wi
