    The threshold isn't measured in windmills, it's measured in co2. If we emit more than 0, then we're in trouble. Needless to say, we're in a lot of trouble.

    thanks for testing it! I guess that would make sense for such a small model to be missing the subtlety

    could the long s `ſ` be throwing the model off?

    I wonder to what degree malice can be engineered to look like incompetence?

    While I do think it's wise for people to start looking at alternatives, I don't think this specific news should sway one way or another. Windows (like Linux or macos) contains an e…

    I think this shouldn't be taken too seriously, from what I understand it's an exploration of what's possible with today's LLMs. You're right to talk about the trend though, because…

    Economic development is great and I'm all for it, but it shouldn't be done at any cost. I quite like our atmosphere, ideally with less than 400ppm of CO2. We're finally seeing sign…

    I'm hoping the kind of gas turbines being installed on these datacenters are capable of quickly responding to a load change, meaning the primary source of energy could be solar dur…

    definitely, and I'm glad there are company that do! but they only exist because they have an incentive to do so: a crowd ready to pay for it.

    What an absolute ecological disaster. If bubble there is, now would be a great time for it to pop.

    I think this is a misconception of how businesses are working. Maybe one person Vs another would yield a slightly different trajectory, but fundamentally, if you want to see why a …

    I'm sure the model is capable, but I find it funny that the sample image that contains three bears gets detected as two elephants.

    Ha that's a good point I didn't realise the process was pre-dating the whole fable 5 story

    It's about covering their arse before reopening Fable 5 They don't care if anyone is using a fake ID, they care that they can send the hot potato back to the American government. T…

    It still lowers the bar to have an interactive encyclopedia that can diagnose your issue at hand. Maybe you can divide your team by two, or reduce your development time.

    Obviously this is region specific, but slowing down water is one of the best ways to have fresh water. Slow it down from trickling down a slope and you have two things: more vegeta…

    Repeatedly, over years, only for 2 to 5 seconds at a time? Seems unlikely

    Yeah there's been some debate about it in the news, because only a certified device can approve it, meaning this takes away any open-source platform to prove you're a human

    It's funny that we've reached the level where LLMs draw more correct bikes than any random person

    With AI we're about to have a trust crisis (I'll explain in a sec), so if we extrapolate it very far, we could see a world where nobody trusts anything displayed on a device, which…
