If you can touch type try this: Go through they keys once alphabetical 'abcd...' recalling the movement from the letter. Then do it the other way round and move your fingers in spatial sequence to the keys and try to recall the l

Absolutely can relate. Thats why I would say: Do your own diagrams! At least the text and formatting. Where I do think it ads value is "AI slop 2". This is somehow even better comprehensible than an average photo.

Maybe there is a bias for action within our moral and legal system. Fundamentally if you can deal with uncertainty correctly or "perfectly" wouldn't more information always be better?

Everybody remember when Zuckerberg told in an Interview in 2024 that human data does not matter that much or more specifically "individual creators or publishers tend to overestimate the value of their specific content". Something

This does surprise me, because you'd think that even if they crank up the filter's sensitivity at the expense of specificity, an LLM company wouldn't simply design a filter that triggers on keywords in a completely unrelated

First test question: "Is the UV Index a good proxy for when to wear sunglasses." Immediately triggered the safety filter ... oh dear.

Social Media creates distinctive Filter Bubbles. A dominant LLM company (or multiple aligned ones) create one way of thinking.

Was looking for a precise term for that. Thank you! Also AI-Linkedin-Bullshit likes to use "just" additionally and it's mostly along the lines of Y being something much more impactful then X.

The knowledge that everything is made out of atoms/molecules however makes it much easier to reason about your environment. And based on this knowledge you also learn algorithms, how to solve problems etc. I dont think its possible to

How do you arrive at the statement that a cavemen would have the same intelligence as a human today? Intelligence is surely not usually defined as the cognitive potential at birth but as the current capability. And the knowledge an average

"External Storage" whatever that is can not be the same as continous learning as it does not have the strong connections/capture the interdepencies of knowledge. That said I think we will see more efforts also on the business

The fact that the outputs are probabilities is not important. What is important is how that output is computed. You could imagine that it is possible to learn certain algorithms/ heuristics that "intelligence" is comprised of

Worriesome for sure. However I would say that the cited studies are somewhat outdated already compared e.g. with GPT-5-Thinking doing 2mins of reasoning/search about a medical question. As far as I know Deepseeks search capabilities ar

You are right, just tried even with reference images it can't do it for me. Maybe with some good prompting. Because in theory I would say that knowledge is something that does not have to be baked in the model but could be added using

Most people are missing the point here. Testing the GUI/feature more reliable is something that Gemini 3 could unlock (looking at the ScreenSpot-Pro benchmark and its general improvement on visual understanding). At least for the (hob

In theory, nearly all of them? Many of those things could be improved today without AI but e.g. raising Incidents for issues outside of your control could also give you a suggestion already that you just have to tick off. Not saying we are
