If the news reporter said "Someone at a park played this 4 minute copyrighted song, and today's top story is just us showing you the recording" I'd bet that would be illegal where you live.

This reminds me of a stand up comedy routine about people being bad at hiding their porn collections because their brain doesn't work right when they are horny.

> If it could make 5 different versions of chapter 2, all with different directions for the story, and all with novel and interesting developments, wouldn’t that be a better definition of creativity than “can it read chapter 1 and be abl

I don't necessarily just feed it chapter 1. (And chapter length varies between novels). And no I don't think asking the A.I. to write the next 2000 words would require it to have the entire novel planned out. Not all writers even

For me a basic test of A.I. creativity is give the A.I. chapter 1 of a novel it has not seen and ask it to write chapter 2, then compare the quality to the original author's chapter 2. The A.I. is always terrible at this in terms of ma

Is anyone from 2016 still alive today? If so I'm hoping we can track them down and have them tell us if they think this is AGI.

You are worried about bias but judge an author on whether they use X or Bluesky?

The U.S. government wouldn't need to use bombs they could just send in the police.

From what I recall Zune had a much bigger screen for videos so I bought one for that reason you can see the side by side here: https://electronics.howstuffworks.com/zune-ipod.htm

> Their doctor should be qualified to make that judgment without a government bureaucracy This is like saying AI developers should be qualified to evaluate the effacy of a model without testing the model.

This is funny because the stock Market has been ahistorically high. My portfolio went up over 20 percent in the last 12 months. A major correction would be a bummer but we were never entitled to these abnormal gains in the first place.

This comment thread was started with discussions of AI doing a bad job at a task (communication). Doesn't the Chinese Room posit an AI good at the task of communication?

> The only difference is AI isn’t regulated You seem to believe that regulation is "ethics backed by law". As this is not true, your counter example is not even on point.

> Like, for every 10th token, instead of outputting the most probable, it outputs the 17th most probable, or something. Wouldn't you need the prompt to know the probability of the next token?

I think Matrix 3 would have been better if it was more about humans taking control of the Matrix and trying to figure out what a virtual utopia looks like.

If the market expected a worse job loss than 23,000 that would make sense. I'm not actually suggesting there's a good reason for market swings, just that bad news shouldn't necessarily cause the market to go down.

I'm pretty sure you are confusing your state's zoning laws with federal environmental regulations.

You write as if nobody has ever raised interest rates before and this is some unprecedented event that no bank could be prepared for.

Does OpenAI give Artificial Analysis early access to test models? If so it's definitely not "some random account".

Yes it tends to be correct because the other option, invent a trading scheme, tends to work out worse for investors who attempt it.

3 to 5 years of cash or a bond ladder won't help in a 1970s stagflation scenario.

I don't agree with you on what the term SOTA means. Gemini Pro 3.1 was the only frontier model that had native video input at launch. It was certainly SOTA at some tasks.

It may be a dud. The blog post assures us they are now pretraining Gemini 4.

You are exaggerating. 3.1 Pro came out in February of this year.

> the idea that self-identifying as Claude is affirmative evidence that it's not distilled I wasn't arguing that. I was arguing that even if it was distilled from Claude, the distillation isn't why it identifies as Claude.

For context you just asked me to read a document that starts with: "Caveat: fully AI-generated research." And that you quoted or paraphrased directly.

> This behavior is exactly what you'd expect from a model distilled from Claude. This is not at all what I would expect because it's trivial to change the training data to replace Claude with Kimi. In fact I'd argue it&#x2
