My understanding (belief) is that it's going to depend on how much human involvement is there. If you write a prompt and one-shot a problem and share the source code, that source c…

Is it the same as the proverbial buggy whip manufacturers of 100 years ago complaining about how their business is yet another ruined by cars?

If you buy decent cables from reputable companies (CableMatters, LTT, Apple, etc...) you could end up with a drawer full of high quality mystery cables. A cheap tester is probably …

> the new Oracle I think that's exactly what they are going for - enterprise and government customers.

> wayyy overpriced Maybe they consider that hiring a person to do it would have cost at least as much and taken much more time, so paying them is a bargain.

I haven't had good luck with either. The torch may have been a skill issue but the broiler just doesn't get hot enough. Mine taps out at 550 F.

Are you just heating the bare cast iron to crazy hot temperatures and then putting the steak in? I've thought about trying that, but I'd need to first strip the seasoning off the p…

A blow torch might be worth trying. I'd think it's still not as good as a hot broiler because it's heating a relatively small area.

I've made steak probably 100 times in the past decade (sometimes with a sous vide) and I don't think I've ever made one I would say is great. Certainly not as good as what I can ge…

Isn't Planck's hypothesis really a theory? Isn't string theory really a hypothesis?

That was such a weird move for them to make. If you have AIs that are good at building software, then use them to build great software! Instead they choose lowest-common denominato…

Did you intend to say dark forest hypothesis ?

I think you are overselling it a bit. 60-some cameras were misconfigured for a relatively short period of time.

Does the XBox not have an option for doing those updates in the background or when you aren't playing?

I don't think any of the ARC-AGI-3 tests are very interesting. At least not as interesting as driving a car. Children literally do a similar task in go karts every day. Another int…

I was more interested in the claim that fascism always collapses because China feels like a durable counter-example. But if you don't classify China as fascist, it is irrelevant.

Do any of the big AI companies have a model that are good at tasks that require learning? For example, every day people teach teenagers how to drive and with only dozens of hours o…

What definition of fascism are you using? Is China fascist?

The results are fine, it just isn't a very interesting benchmark. It can generate video and it's getting better. Great, I guess. Clocking improvements in areas the AIs are terrible…
