Composer 2.5 stands out here at nr. 9. This model is fast and clever.

I would also regret it if they become that fast; right now I can really take a moment to enjoy the hard work the model is doing for me.

Michael Levin has a lot of new ideas.

The idea that there is much more computation (and intelligence/agency) going on in biological and other systems seems to be getting more popular. (The author writes: The whole body…

I first thought the spinning was an optical illusion, like https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/how-our-b... . But in this case the spinning is real and you don’t see…

I think the difference now is that traditional software ultimately comes down to a long series of if/then statements (also the old AI's like Wolfram), whereas the new AI (mainly LL…

I'm using the smaller models for things like searching and summarizing over a larger part of the codebase. The speed is really pleasant then.

Is there a distinction made between business customers and consumers? (B2B/B2C)

I guess I mean that we are awake experience the input from our senses, and that in a dream only the replication of the experience of seeing or hearing etc. is needed, not a replica…

Who remembers Steve Gibson's 'little corner of the web'? He wrote super small Windows applications in assembly: https://www.grc.com/smgassembly.htm

It it false but I would not blame the parent; the ISP blocked page is unclear and suggests the block is linked to Russia.

Yeah, if I understand correctly AI will create it's own internal reasoning language through RL. In R1-Zero it was already a strange mix of languages. They corrected that for R1 to …

I think here it is bearable because the page is more like a presentation. The worst is when nothing special happens, and you only notice scrolling is off.

We are using Helpscout wich is very nice over all. The also do not send the weirdly formatted ticket email, with 'respond above this line' etc.

Did you find out what the error was in computing the volume of the truncated icosidodecahedron?

The attackers are demanding only $500,000 as a ransom payment, that's cheap!

Technically it is, of course, but the experience is completely different, and I get the feeling people call it that to downplay it.

I always think people calling AI just ‘fancy autocomplete‘ haven’t really tried it yet.
