I don't consider self-reported nonsense to be empirical confirmation. There can be correlations between different self-reports, that doesn't mean that our idea of why those correlations exist is correct.

It remains godawful slop in every instance I've seen, no matter how expensive it would be to produce without AI.

Some data centers, sure. 23% of the country's energy worth? I don't think so. Training LLMs is not critical digital infrastructure.

I agree with your analysis, but doesn't that make this blogpost by google a bit overoptimistic, or even disingenuous?

I do know their names. However I'm not in the field and there are many cases in recent years of high-profile scientists putting their weight behind highly dubious claims. Thanks for the advice, by the way. Note that I'm not disput

Do you have enough knowledge? I laugh at everyone who accepts these claims in the light they're presented despite knowing so little.

I don't have enough information about the announcement for it to mean much to me. I don't know much about this field of maths. I don't know how many mathematicians were actively working on this problem. It could be zero, whic

I agree polymarket is "bad", but it's also highly relevant and should absolutely be included in this web page.

The problem here is the word "will". Because they don't exist.

The account of the youtube video linked in the article has been terminated apparently. Anyone know why or if there's an alternate link?

Just print so much money that people (yes, banks are people!) have nothing better to do than buy stonks. Problem solved!

It would be cool to have protest maps in another politically unstable middle eastern country too.

I still don't understand how it's world-changing apart from considerably degrading the internet. It's laughable to compare it to railroads.

Are you actually making that article, or just "quoting" it as some kind of hypothetical? Regardless, without mentioning heat capacity, I don't see any point to your quotation in this context.

This is because peer review has become a bullshit mill and AI is good at churning through/out bullshit.

A perfect vacuum might have no temperature, but space is not a perfect vacuum, and has a well-defined temperature. More insight would be found in thinking about what temperature precisely means, and the difference between it and heat capaci

HAMAS? We're talking about an attack in Lebanon my friend, not Palestine.

by zeofig 9mo ago
Yes, since conveniently the attacker also gets to define who is a civilian.

We're past the point of civility when it comes to things like github and M$0FT's involvement.

You're right. I'll send them some thoughts and prayers too.
