Investors who don’t bother reading past the letters A and I in the prospectus.
How is Worldcoin still a thing?
Maybe true, but even at $3500 the Vision Pro would be about the cheapest thing in the operating theater anyway.
Are you looking for a tool that can diff legal documents line by line or clause by clause? If the latter I’d bet an LLM with a large context size could do a pretty good job, especially if you used a script (or another pass through the LLM) to break them down into like sections so that could just compare e.g. all Controlling Law sections with each other and all IP Indemnification sections with each other.
Now that I think about it, tuning the prompt (and keeping the temperature very low, like 0) you could probably get it to return everything from proper diffs to summaries of conceptual differences. And it could definitely do multiples at once if you were to break them into like pieces ahead of time.
The headline’s a bit misleading. The drive is a plasma thruster, and the company found that by adding Boronated water to the exhaust the plasma would fuse with some of the boron creating a kind of afterburner effect, not a sustained fusion reaction. It’s kind of interesting as a way to boost the performance of the plasma thruster, but not “OMG it’s a Fusion Drive!!!” interesting.
Who is your PM or senior assigning the tasks? You need to take this up with them – everyone always needs a couple of quick hits in their back pocket. When you stall out grinding on task after impossible task it kills your motivation and productivity, and that’s your boss’s job to fix.
It’s actually 1.58bits weirdly. The addition of 0 here was the significant change/improvement in this experiment. The paper isn’t too dense and has some decent tables that explain things fairly accessibly.
It was kind of a difficult read for me - things just hit a little too close to home for me, and the resolution was too perfect. I’d still recommend it though - at the end of the day it’s still Kim Stanley Robinson, and he is an absolute master of hard social-scifi.
Every time I read a story about some billionaire getting angry about their private jets being tracked I recall a part of the Kim Stanley Robinson novel Ministry for the Future, a (very) near-future tale about how a few global climate catastrophes wreak such havoc that regular people start taking extreme measures – for example randomly shooting down passenger aircraft for months, causing the collapse of the air travel industry. I have to imagine that the 1%ers are thinking about that too now.
One of the video clips has Doom Guy shooting at a Baron of Hell :)
Are there any self-hosted twitter front ends? Something that would still use your account credentials (or maybe shared credentials) but would cut out all of the cruft, kinda like piped for YT?
Fair enough. ML ⊆ AI then. But these days when everyone talking breathlessly about AI taking away jobs they’re almost always taking about LLMs. This article is about ML in particular which is a different discipline with different applications.
ML =/= AI. There are legit uses for ML that don’t have anything to do with LLMs and the cloud. I worked on an ML project 3 or 4 years ago to listen for fan noise that might indicate that it was about to fail soon. We trained a tiny GAN on good and bad noises. It runs on a tiny CPU, locally. Highly specialized work, and I have to imagine there are and will continue to be lots of similar opportunities to bring efficiencies by getting computers to make good observations and decisions - even if only about “simple” things like “does this thing seem like it’s about to break?”
I’m surprised that there hasn’t been more of a push for B Corp style corporate governance in tech considering how many tech leaders claim to be working for the greater good. There are plenty of options for doing well and doing good at the same time.
🤣
I don’t think so. Most of the big LLMs have guardrails to prevent them from spitting out hate speech.
A lack of real penalties for these companies just means they have no incentive. If they can make $1B on your data and then maaaaayyybeeeee have to pay a $50M fine because of a breach, why wouldn’t they continue doing that?
You can kinda do it with Google Customizabe Search Engine, which is basically a thin wrapper around Google. In a regular Google search you can use syntax like -site:ignorethisdomain.com to exclude specific domains (i do this with Pinterest whenever searching for images, for example). But manually typing in a large list of black listed domains would be tedious so instead you can set up a CSE with everybody you want to ignore and then just use the special URL as your search engine.
When did we get away from saying “X - formerly known as Twitter” ? I liked seeing that gentle nudge in every headline.
