> For white-collar jobs replacement - we can always evolve up the knowledge/skills/value chain. I'm not so sure about this one. I partially agree with the statement, but less-abled collegues might have troubles with this :

I wonder too. If the bubble pops, there will be a lot of cheap compute on the table. Whoever repurposes that toward some useful goal wins the prize :)

I think this is because the infra is already built and so there is no incentive to upgrade, since you won't get more customers, aside maybe taking them from competition. Afaik even the latter might be an issue, because typically you ge

"p0rn" dir in root level is a nice touch for this.

If I may suggest another read: Perfect Imperfection by Polish author Jacek Dukaj. It's definitely weirder, than Accelerando, as the book drops you straight into the last parts of evolution curve, but definitely worth reading if you hav

Sounds like you are arguing with a bot? em-dashes are a giveaway (nobody sane uses these "—")

I wonder if this can be connected to a fatigue that I experience during clothes shopping. Whenever I enter some kind of a clothing shop I get super tired after 10-20 minutes of searching for something, while my girlfriend could do that for

So a more accurate statement would be that a derivative of pollution has peaked.

This was on AGH (Akademia Górniczo Hutnicza) in Krakow, Poland. I did my masters there. The course was kind of zero to hero type of thing. Here is the syllabus (unfortunately it is in polish but maybe you will be able to translate it): htt

Huh I haven't thought that I will see minizinc outside of my university. I keep being pleasantly surprised that constraint programming and formal methods are being used somewhere out there.

How did you recognize that it was sleep apnea? Have you snored at night?

A very non-technical take from my side, but those control vectors really remind me of hormones in humans. They modify large swathes of model behaviour at once. I give it 10 years before we see AI psychiatrists prescribe a happiness control

I use LLM for generating data, for example to fill SQL tables for tests or some python datastructures. Transforming data works really well, so tasks like "take bibtex entry and convert it into citation" I've tried to code ent

I love when thieves are trying to steal copper, but all they get is a broken fiber optic ;) My dad works as a network engineer, and he told me a story that one of the banks in Poland lost one of the internet providers. They investigated and

Maybe emitting a warning would be good. I'm no DBA so remembering all operations that cannot be rolledback might be tough. (Though maybe I should know all of them if they aren't rollbackable :P )

This is what I think as well, I think we will see just another failure mode of capitalism, accumulation of wealth in hands of the few to the detriment of the rest, bubbles popping etc. . I think that the system was kind of designed for infi

Anyone has suggestions for taking such course (books, websites etc.)? During my studies there was no compiler course on my university (which is saddening). I would also like to find some reputable OS internals course or book...

Since it's a transformer model, I use it to... "transform" the data. - Change raw citation into bibtex entry - Fix spelling mistakes - convert csv file into json (though you can do it without employing trillion parameter mode

I think this would effectively drop the usage (maybe not to 0 but enough to allow other social services to come back on the stage). Most people don't know how to sideload or don't want to sideload anything out of app store, the we

I don't think so, bytecode / machine code must be really precise, while LLMs are producing nondeterministic outputs (at least GPT). Add "hallucinating" of the output to the pile and right now I think it's infeasible

It does to some degree. Some people have shown that you can prompt GPT to behave like shell or python interpreter. Then you can "execute" some statements, of course to some degree of saneness. However I'm not sure if it does
