I mean, I agree, but the AI labs clearly don't even if they sometimes pretend they do to achieve their goals. And we're talking about "incidents" caused by the very same people here.

Seems it's just a matter of time until they build a big tank filled with neurotoxin and give the model access to APIs to disperse it across their facility. For research, of course.

Yes, this is the only sensible reading of what happened there that leads to "the models are dangerous" and we already know that the AI labs are completely disregarding this concern and only cosplaying it for marketing as the "

This whole AI boom is about optimizing for the wrong thing. I can't wait for the bubble to burst - once the weeds get suffocated, we may begin to see actually useful AI tech starting to grow after a while on their fertile ashes.

It would, but it would make the Pi not able to check the power capability of the source. Note that the Pi's failure mode is different - it does work with C-to-C cables as long as they don't contain e-markers. They tried to be clev

It doesn't. All the power source needs is a way to sense that a power sink has been plugged in, as otherwise you could connect two powered sources with each other. Type C makes it about as simple as possible. It's really not the s

Raspberry Pi 4 had a slightly different problem - they attempted to get away with using just one resistor instead of two, as it allowed them to simplify their voltage-sensing circuit a bit. At a cost of non-compliance and all the issues tha

There's all sorts of cheap devices like that out there that merely have a Type C-shaped receptacle that doesn't actually implement Type C because they couldn't bother to place two resistors on the board.

Just grab two of these spec-violating chargers and a C-to-C cable. I don't think the right solution to problems coming from spec-violating garbage is producing differently spec-violating garbage.
