I suppose many products were initially invented to get value or of an underutilized by-product, but as soon as there's a market and people want to buy it, the byproduct is no longer waste.

This made me wonder - do any cloud compute systems have an option to time jobs or use physical resources geographically based on surplus power availability to minimise emissions? I reckon it might incidentally happen if optimising for cost

You don't tend to hear about it and not that there isn't still progress to be made, but there has been tonnes of progress on fisheries interactions with protected bycatch species. For ex the infamous dolphin problem in the eastern

We had one on a yacht I crewed that did ecotour sorta sails. When we'd catch a small tuna, after the trips I'd butterfly it and George Foreman it. No added oil just right on the Teflon cooking surface and texture and taste would

I'm not sure it's that unique of a situation though, most prey organisms have some antipredator adaptations but rarely are they foolproof, just like rarely are predatory adaptations like mimicry/camouflage/crypsis absolu

Oh yeah, 'charging up' your wetsuit is great. The replacement is fairly limited with a good suit especially if you have booties and a hood, but who cares, people pay a lot of money for skin care products with urea in them.

I bet all of these researchers involved had a long list of candidates they'd like to test and have a very good idea what the lowest hanging fruit are, sometimes for more interesting reasons than 'it was used successfully as an inh

I'm sure the scientists involved had a wish list of dozens of drug candidates to repurpose to test based on various hypotheses. Ideas are cheap, time is not. In this case they actually tested a drug probably because Google is paying fo

That's incredible. Looks like they leased a building to the hostelers and it was shut down because it violated sanctions, but amazing that the $42,000 a month lease is worth it to dabble in for NK. Then again they were subletting park

Have you ever done any of these controlled experiments with giant helmets or blindfolds and elaborate movements to defeat orientation though?

'could' is doing a whole lot of work in that sentence, I'm being charitable. Reality is LLMs are being crammed in places where it isn't very sensible under thin justifications, just like the last few big ideas were (c.f.

One camp is a high specificity camp, the other is a high sensitivity camp. You definitely know what camp you are in if you are only making the argument you can detect true cases of LLM use without many false positives- I've already adm

The makeup is a great analogu. I can bet with 99.9% that when I say a woman is wearing makeup that I'm correct (or it is tattoed on or similar). When it's obvious, it's obvious. However I don't detect makeup on women qui

If the cornflakes had been sitting in old milk for a week, then yes, I would believe you could tell by how they walk, either hunched over with a cramping stomach or with shit pants. LLM text is quite similar.

Probably not entirely fair. e.g. After enough sentences it is trivially easy to identify LLM output. So you repeatedly get the opportunity to test a sentence or two, guess the provenance and then realise it is the first sentence in several

The work demonstrating the Frankfurtian Bullshit nature of generated prose would suggest as much, given the architecture is the same for code outputs it seems like a fair assumption until it is demonstrated otherwise.

But one is trying to write good-enough code. The other is trying to write good-enough- looking code. The probability of pain arising from the bugs of the latter is probably greater.
