seconds are the SI base unit for time
True. But seconds are not the base unit for package compromises coming to light. The appropriate unit for that is almost certainly days.
Yes, but I guess you see what I'm getting at. If designing the next ARC-AGI test is impossible for AI without a human in the loop, then AGI becomes unreachable by definition.
Will there be a point in that series of ARC-AGI tests where AI can design the next test, or is designing the next text always going to be a problem that can be solved by humans and not AI?
crazy not even a year has past since Emad's downfall a local open source and superior model drops
which just shows how little moat these companies have
Flux was developed by the same people that made Stable Diffusion.
Yes. The following is a lot more concise:
a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
print([v*v for v in reversed(a) if v*v % 2 == 0])Having read the paper, I agree that this is an enormous effort, but I didn't see anything that was particularly surprising from a technical point of view - and nothing of Singularity-level significance. The use of AI to train AI - as a source of synthetic data, or as an evaluation tool - is absolutely widespread. You will find similar examples in almost any AI paper dealing with a system of comparable scale.
Stenography is writing in shorthand. What you mean is steganography.
You can also watermark plain text by generating "invisible" patterns.
Of course, in all these cases, the watermarks are trivial to remove: just re-encode the output with an open model. Which is why I hope there will be no federal law that tries to enforce something that is categorically unenforceable.
If La Jetee was just some photos stitched together plus meaningful narration, then of course, you could use AI-generated photos.
But would AI be able to quote Vertigo, like La Jetee does? Doesn't art, at least to some degree, require intent (including all intentional subversions of that intent dogma, of course)?
In the short term, it's a smart strategy for Israel, but they've likely opened Pandora's box in the process.
Absolutely. From today on, this type of attack will have to be considered part of the arsenal.
While building thousands of explosive communication devices and swapping a large shipment requires substantial resources and intelligence, the actual "sophistication" of today's attack seems to lie in the fact that the perpetrator managed to specifically target a clandestine adversarial organization.
If you don't care about that last part, I don't think it's completely out of reach for a hypothetical "state sponsored terrorist organization" to have a thousand smart phone explosives shipped into a target market, say the European Union or the United States. Such an attack, if successful, would be devastating.
What would happen if you walked through airport security with such a device?
That would of course be an absolute disaster, given that any user input could easily leak internal state and/or break your program.
Keeping JavaScript from constructing high-precision timers is going to be a cat and mouse game.

Sadly, there's a lot more to it:

As others have pointed out, you can go wrong with that. If you don't store the local time and timezone, then your integer becomes meaningless whenever the DST rules change, as you can no longer tell if your conversion back to local time corresponds to the initial conversion from local time.
Are you aware of the fact that those who carried out the most unspeakable crimes against humanity -- including those that Godwin's law forbids me to mention here -- could still be construed to have been "following orders", and that in fact, this was often the central argument in their defense?
To point out the "failure to specifically include the word Jew when talking about the Holocaust" is not "nitpicking".
Especially when it is followed almost immediately by a series of Trump tweets justifying his immigration order with "large numbers" of Christians executed in the Middle East. (Which, while factually correct, depending on what you think constitutes a large number, is a bizarre misrepresentation of who are -- by far -- the majority of the victims of Islamist terror, namely: Muslims)
Well, to be fair: Airbnb is run by people who intend to profit from the toxicity of their business -- for places like Berlin, where what they "disrupt" is not so much the hotel industry but the city's housing politics, and many local communities.
In one word: liability.

And just for the record: I submitted this story under the title "Airbnb for refugees", with the quotes -- which I think might have yielded a more insightful discussion than the question of "Refugees welcome" (or not), to which the title was changed after an hour or so.

It is important to note here that Einstein was not being translated from German properly into English. 'Spuk' has a meaning akin to spook in the sense of a remote observer; Rather than 'spooky', which is an adjective relating to ghosts.
Einstein's "spukhaft" is very much an adjective relating to the activity of ghosts. If you translate it as "magical", you're not losing much of its meaning.
Ah, thanks for the pointer!

Didn't find the "Download All" option... but this should do:
import json
import os
import re
import requests
url = 'https://earthview.withgoogle.com/%s'
def get_data(slug=None):
if not slug:
html = read_url(url % '')
slug = re.search('href="/(.*?)">Explore</a>', html).group(1)
html = read_url(url % slug)
data = json.loads(
re.search('data-photo="(.*?)"', html).group(1).replace('"', '"')
)
write_json('../json/%s.json' % slug, data)
jpg = read_url(data['photoUrl'], binary=True)
write_image('../jpg/%s.jpg' % slug, jpg)
get_data(data['nextUrl'][1:])
def read_url(url, binary=False):
print('reading', url)
r = requests.get(url)
return r.content if binary else r.text
def write_image(path, data):
if not os.path.exists(path):
print('writing', path)
with open(path, 'wb') as f:
f.write(data)
def write_json(path, data):

There seems that people living under regimes with limited freedom often fail to comprehend that people living in other countries might produce something without the explicit approval of their government.
Ironically though, there are reports that this is exactly what happened: "U.S. government approved 'The Interview's' assassination scene, Sony emails allege" (http://www.dailydot.com/entertainment/sony-hack-emails-the-i...)
"If the choice is between a tacit pardon and a formal one, a formal one is better. An explicit pardon would lay down a marker, signaling to those considering torture in the future that they could be prosecuted."
Now that's a truly strong signal to send to past and future torturers!
While I generally agree, note that you can already trivially video chat with anyone who has a WebRTC-capable browser, without having to install anything extra, by simply sending them a link to https://chatb.org (or any other similar service).
