It's an indicator of AI progress. The solutions aren't especially revolutionary, but no person had been able to solve them after decades of collective attempts.
No taxation without representation?
Small social sites are just as dangerous in another way, as vessels for a toxic monoculture. Pro-anorexia forums, political radicalization, there was even a famous one that fetishized infecting people with HIV.
Does reading books have intrinsic value, or is it just a specific (archaic?) way of transmitting information? Socrates would be a podcaster today
The only people I've ever met who get excited filling out forms were German
Art is communication. If you can convey the message to an intern on a post-it, what's the point!
My favorite art is the kind that describes to people how they already feel.
That's amazing! The "machines as woodland fairies" conceit imagines them as natural creatures, but nature has no laws
"In developing countries, everything is possible and nothing works. In developed countries, everything works and nothing is possible."
Yeah it's hot...
They have different personalities. I can only imagine Altman wants to stay on top of the chaos, and believes he will come out ahead whatever happens, while Dario is trying to stay realistic and mitigate worst-case scenarios.
The map is not the territory!
There's soft guardrails for "reputable" content. A publishing house has to buy it, stores have to agree to distribute it, and if people are upset they can raise a stink and get the book pulled.
Technically, people can write whatever they want, but practically you can't walk into a bookstore and read whatever you want.
Same as it ever was
And the EU wants to insulate itself from Russia with friendly, ideologically-compatible countries. Can't put a price tag on safety
Emergency medicine is the coding of medicine. Fast feedback loop, requires broad rather than deep judgement, concrete next steps.
The AI coding improvement should be partially transferrable to other disciplines without recreating the training environment that made it possible in the first place. The model itself has learned what correct solutions "feel like", and the training process and meta-knowledge must have improved a huge amount.
Yeah, fractal means you see the same structure, or an equally complex structure, at the smaller scale. This is just details, there's no sustained complexity
So poor people and historical people are in the same bucket as dogs, got it.
How lucky we are to be the only generation in history capable of thinking and reflecting!
Economy of scale, Lego can invest the billions(?) in machines and molds that don't leave connection points (?), partially by reusing pieces between sets.
This is a peak midwit, popsci, plausible-sounding but foundationally-bereft article.
Yeah it's fascinating to have an alternate source for intelligence, feels like a mental Rosetta Stone
Recklessness is based on effort, likelihood, and consequence. If you live in a small town, you might not lock your front door. No matter where you live, you probably don't lock your second floor windows.
Is it healthy? Maybe every company is a profit-maximizer wearing a skin suit, and people support their siblings exactly twice as much as their cousins.
When you slice down to the game-theory-optimal bone, you are, in some sense, cutting off their wiggle room to do anything else
Right, because you see the situation so much better than them ;)
Didn't Google give up on chromeOS? For all their faults, at least Microsoft has a desktop os
What's cool is that they aren't adjusting the temperature of the model live, or predicting/labeling any of the fork/lock points.
Get into the account, change the phone number, and start charging the cards on file. Or look through iCloud data for passwords/contacts
"Requiring an account" means leaning in the Apple/Disney direction - upselling, walled gardens and milking captive customers. Dropping the account requirement is a symbolic (and practical!) step in the other direction, towards using the product as a tool.
Lockdown mode could be life or death for some users. Adding toggles and partial states increases complexity and risk.
The more they share, the easier it is to exploit the system.
Great question! Clean separation between Gemini Pro and the other answers
Baseline demand affects the numbers much more than the unpredictable spikes do. You can come up with edge cases if you like, but the reality is that it all averages out pretty well with large volume.
