I think their point is that there is no new invention here, being able to mimic what a human will do is absolutely impressive, but at the same time it is still mimicking humans. While I just type that out, I do realize my expectations for A

that's an amazing read, lots of concrete and convincing challenges; but otoh, technology is evolving at such a fast pace, maybe it is possible for breakthroughs that we couldn't imagine now to become reality sooner than we would h

maybe I am a fool, does space-based AI make no sense at all?

> then have rest of the day off to enjoy things I like But that's not what companies expect from you, even if you owns AI. They expect you to output more, and when you do, someone else is probably out of work.

They just sent out email about the scam. I was so annoyed that even after opening the app, the notification icon still persists, wondering if the hack on the notifications exploits some loophole in the Betterment app

I am at the stage of life where I appreciate this wisdom and desire the practice of it, but lack the will power to not get caught up “trying to win the game”. Once a while I get anxious about leveling and compensation, overwhelmed by compar

So it only solves a tail problem. I would assume the percentage of subscribers with poor internet is low.

Surely there is a lot of workload is delay-able, but there is equal, if not more, amount of workload that do not have the luxury of waiting. Is it fair to say the serverless platform has no advantage for the latter workload?

If I read the article correctly, Gödel's rationale is pretty much "The world is orderly organized, therefore after life is supposed to exist"? I must have read it wrong, because I couldn't see the causality at all.

As someone working in tech and following along the progression of AI, I believe I have the right expectation. But still feels surreal seeing myself speaking a foreign language in my own speech style.

This is the most logical explanation I have seen so far. Makes me wonder why Dustin Moskovitz himself wasn't on the board of OpenAI in the first place.

SQLite is superb choice as a local storage solution, you don't need a transactionality requirement to use it as a KV store. People choose NoSQL databases primarily for scaling reasons, which is not the problem here.
