Finally a job safe from AI!

Hell, Google pays Junior Engineers less than that in Bangalore.

Could you give me an example differentiating detail oriented work vs analysis oriented work?

I was shopping for washing machines last summer and looking at huge "AI" stickers on the more expensive ones gave me a headache.

>obfuscate your privacy. Edward Snowden says hello.

> they consistently fail to understand the very delicate choices that it made to ensure optimal performance. Do you have an example?

I'd imagine it'd be a reasonable tradeoff for disabled people who can't use their hands.

As someone who's still learning English, this is one thing I'd never use AI for, at least not in the near future, simply because thinking and structuring my thoughts before typing …

Phrasing, I wasn't blaming anyone, just curious about the technicalities.

Couldn't that also cause glitches since optimizations meant for HL2 might not work for, say San Andreas? I understand some optimizations might be universal but I can't help but thi…

> to rename the game executable to hl2.exe This seems genuinely unbelievable. Does anyone have a technical explanation for this?

I've had the opposite experience with all the math nerds that I know. End of the day it's all anecdotal ig https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Mathematician%27s_Apology

"Citizens United" might be the most ironic name in the history of western democracy.

I don't think those two things are mutually exclusive. Good chance that a few students that cheated or at the least used AI in a major capacity to graduate, still booed when that f…

Auto-complete on steroids, is still my favorite analogy for AI. I don't mean that in a negative way either. Autocomplete is very good, but that never stopped me from learning Engli…

I haven't read the study, but I wonder if one reason comprehension went down was because of over-reliance on AI among students.

How good is AI integration in Apple products? Did they drop the ball as hard as Microsoft did? I naively assumed a few years ago that Microsoft could pull it off perfectly because …

I guess an optimistic way to look at this would be to treat this as just another layer of abstraction, meaning people could focus on larger scale problems moving forward, similar t…

I wonder how Steve Jobs would've reacted to this GenAI boom. He constantly talked about the intersection of Humanities and tech, as well as fostering creativity by pushing people t…

I share your aversion to modern marketing tactics, but by your logic, programmers that develop the addictive social media algorithms are the meth cooks. Everyone is complicit. Mode…
