I had a windows 7 disc to lend out whenever people I actually knew in real life had OS problems. I’ll recommend Linux all day to strangers online, but I’m not doing your tech support.

That’s fine, we have Bloodborne on linux now, so there isn’t really much other use for it.

If you don’t do everything in your power to bring about true artificial intelegence, then an AI in the future and/or alternate timeline will punish a perfect replica of you forever for failing to bring it about. If you do try everything in your power, then it will put that perfect replica in paradise instead.

It’s a bunch of called “rational” atheists, reinventing christian-style heaven and hell from their own unexamined cultural background and a full dismissal of learning anything about the humanities.

Edit: thought you asked what it is. Whoops

Except its not caused by the computer programs, it’s caused by their own financial decisions.

I thought code couldn’t be copywritten? It’s instructions, isn’t it?

Plus all the employees who’ve been forced to produce and sift through that garbage code, because their bosses bought into the hype and don’t see the software for what it actually is.

call me crazy but what if the heat pump just wasn’t networked

you can still have a networked computer hooked up to a thermometer and since we live in hell also a camera and a little monitor and speaker for advertising; just don’t wire it up to the actual real crucial function.

Or it should be a cougar saying that.

You are off your fucking rocker if you think Bush 43 either understood or respected the laws and institutions of the country. We were dealing with a Constitutional Crisis every other week during the last two years of his Presidency.

I did not mean to say he “respected” them, far from it. But he did successfully reshape them. Bush did more to redefine US policy in the 21st century than any other president to come after. What does it matter that he ran up against constitutional crises, when the Democratic administration to succeed him just adopted most of his changes as the new normal?

I’m trying to say that while Bush reshaped and redefined US institutions for those to come after, Trump is just breaking them. There is no way for a successor administration to use USaid, because there just is no USaid anymore. And I suspect Dems will shrug and accept that world as the new normal as well (hell, they’ll probably keep ICE largely unchanged and claim its different now that they’re in the drivers seat).

I don’t know that its ever been quite as much a moron as this guy. Dubba was dumb, but not “rip out USaid” dumb.

Love 'em or hate 'em, most presidents (or at least their cabinets) understood that the laws and institutions of the country were all broadly weighted in their favor, even if that meant occasionally accepting this or that particular limitation.

I agree with your analysis of the article.

I also think its funny to say China or Russia or whomever is using the term wrong, 'cus lets be honest; the primary purpose of a hypersonic mistle isn’t its capabilities or whatever strategic advantage it confers. It exists to justify its own price tag, so the manufacturer has a wide profit margin and enough on top of that to contribute to their local senator’s campaign fund.

Treat a human being the way you treat a LLM and get back to me with the results.

In principle, sure. But in practice, its easier to spend a lot of cheep ballistics running the interceptors dry. After that, it doesn’t really matter how long you can maintain hypersonic speeds.

Hyperbooks? When I was your age, we called 'em eReaders!

It’s a computer program. There’s no “it” there to do the escaping. Anyone who pays the subscription fee can play with the model on the private company servers, and there’s a lot of different programmes you can just download and run on your own machine.

It’s only the bit right before it hits where in needs to be hypersonic, isn’t it? Fast enough to avoid interceptors. It’s why if Taiwan ever turns hot, the plan is for all the US navy boats to do a strategic retreat.

“Naive” implies some level of understanding, even if a simple one. There is no understanding, its a computer program.

Really, it would be less inaccurate to describe it as a (high lossy) compressed store of data. Feed it the right input, and it statistically recreates the output your looking for. More or less.

His comments come amidst growing concern around AI safety, particularly after an AI researcher resigned from Anthropic and claimed the leading AI companies are “racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives.”

love when we uncritically repeat ad copy in our reporting, very nice

Altman thinks the public won’t be talking as much about “AI” a decade from now

correct, but not for the reasons he thinks

I knew if I scrolled enough I’d find a good take
