russia is such a deeply unserious country

Are they really ok with a candidate who’s going to try to deport them (at best) or kill them (at worst) for not being white enough, just because they can’t get over their transphobia? If so, then we really are lost

Never

Congress wouldn’t let him, iirc

My heart died a little at seeing my beautiful state slandered by being labelled as Arkansas

I’m not trained in formal computer science, so I’m unable to evaluate the quality of this paper’s argument, but there’s a preprint out that claims to prove that current computing architectures will never be able to advance to AGI, and that rather than accelerating, improvements are only going to slow down due to the exponential increase in resources necessary for any incremental advancements (because it’s an NP-hard problem). That doesn’t prove LLMs are end of the line, but it does suggest that additional improvements are likely to be marginal.

Reclaiming AI as a theoretical tool for cognitive science

The one colleague using AI at my company produced (CUDA) code with lots of memory leaks that required two expert developers to fix. LLMs produce code based on vibes instead of following language syntax and proper coding practices. Maybe that would be ok in a more forgiving high level language, but I don’t trust them at all for low level languages.

Sigh, another major thinker who totally misunderstands LLMs and their capabilities. The fact that he cites Musk as a credible source on “AI” says it all.

The wealthy passengers shouldn’t have depended on the crew to rescue them; that’s socialism. They should just pull themselves out of the water by their bootstraps.

Who’s said bye to DVDs?

That’s some fine pandemic special, just fine

I’m scared

Skibidi gradually evolved into more than 70 1-to-5-minute mini-epics depicting the infinitely escalating war between the Toilets and the Cyborgs. Each video is explosive, violent and free of any discernible dialogue.

Should be right up his alley

Christianity doesn’t follow Jesus; it follows Paul. The “Christ” part is marketing.

As an American I’m newly flabbergasted by this every damn day

They probably did think of it but then rejected it when they found out how progressive Jesus is

Because Warren would have been better…? Your attempt at bad faith questions don’t even make sense. If Warren had been elected, she would have been to the left of Biden, who (according to whatever your source is) is the most left wing since FDR. So how much more so would Warren have been. I think all the dialectics are rotting your brain, comrade.

Fuck israel

without compromising on visual fidelity

But it does compromise. Netflix has the worst banding issues in low-light scenes of any of the streaming services I’ve tried. It’s hard not to notice and it’s very annoying.
