    I think you're correct but your bar is too high, I think this app would be useful even if it was a lossy approximation Hemingway from his writings. As a thought experiment - I woul…

    Isn't that a bit like saying that if common cold is solved, you will believe that human intelligence is possible? Why isn't it super intelligent if there are security flaws in the …

    The article you linked is from Sept '24 and points to the ARC-AGI test as "evidence" that we're not getting close. We're in Feb '25. ARC-AGI (at least the version they're referenci…

    Forget singularity, do you think the robotics problem is genuinely hard enough that if we devoted significant amount of intelligence to it, it would not get solved? >any day now Op…

    The world’s richest man got handed this mandate by someone that was elected by millions of US citizens and he explicitly told them he will do this. Enough people in the US want to …
