Did this at a party once with a mango. Also they had specifically taught me how to cut a mango at the last party.

Every day, she just sits and waits for the balloon. Toward the end of this journey, Mr Beast, in narration, says something like, “she does this because if she doesn’t hit the balloon, her living space will be smaller. But also because it’s the only thing she has to do.”

Technically the difference is that if I like it, & it's good, then it's ML. But if it's bad? Mmmm probably AI.

People talking about "LLMs can't make new information" is so fucking funny. Ah yeah, AlphaZero hasn't found new chess strategies. Protein folding models don't make information.

🚨 The DOJ appears to have redacted Donald Trump’s name from the allegations made in this exhibit in the Epstein files. Trump’s name was in the original release. Now, it’s blacked out. See for yourself.

I think a key problem is that to most critics, it must be everything. It has to destroy the environment, eliminate every job, enable a fascist takeover, melt our brains, all while being a uninspired, unremarkable piece of boring technology that also doesn't work.

Really interesting research showing that while ultra-specialization in a single discipline might lead to better results early in one’s career, multi-discipline training and practice pays off big time in the long run. This applies to a range of professions from scientists to athletes and more

Larian produces very good work. If they say they can integrate AI into their workflow as part of doing that, all evidence I have right now suggests that it works for them. That doesn't mean it works for your situation or mine, but I assume it works for them until I get evidence otherwise.

Removing the context because I think "this technology will go away" is detached from reality, but I think there's def some truth to this, which suggests some of the more interesting avenues for generative models (e.g. interaction).

HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files: Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996. The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

So that means AI is basically responsible for about 0.05-0.13% of global emissions. That’s right. At most it’s around a tenth of a percent.

I mean this literally, your average person thinking ChatGPT is a weird sex thing would be an improvement on the average person thinking they know how to use it. I am a smart, educated person and I know just enough to know *I* do not know how to use it nor would I benefit from trying to learn.

a lot of random semantic disputes about "generative" ai seem to be people wanting there to be some way in which the companies and products that they don't like are doing something categorically different from those that aren't it's just really not categorically different

idk, I think Firefox giving folks the ability to run ai models locally on their devices is fine, and significantly better than corralling their users into some bullshit cloud service.
