Then my question would be: what would AI labs do if the internet suddenly stopped existing?

I sometimes wonder how AI labs would make money if the internet didn't exist.

Maybe we'd have local models ...

The opinionated CPU. I was expecting this from Apple, to be honest.

This kind of thing is what some three letter agencies dream about.

Get ready for MacOS to turn into iOS ...

Does it produce toxic fumes?

We're talking about a driller with the knowledge of the totality of mankind.

And starlink?

The railway system in the US is not very impressive, though.

That's not a fair comparison because the painter produces different work, whereas tax computations will be the same.

That's very cool but don't you think the Big AI labs will soon have collected enough data from us that they can easily do this?

Don't run important stuff on your consumer devices. Apple is a consumer brand.

I imagine AI will expose many backdoors created by three letter agencies. This could be one.

The only way Big AI labs will sell us appliances is when the internet was somehow destroyed.

Not sure where this would fit in.

Anyone designing their own macbook clone using llms yet?

Curious if Claude could come up with this when asked to implement a flood fill without stack. Alas, out of tokens.

Failure modes?

Show them or I'll assume this is pure marketing.

How much better is the "intelligence" of police officers compared to artificial intelligence?

Just wait until they have shareholders.

At least the industrial revolution gave us 5-day workweeks (instead of 6-day).

As long as you're not working __for__ the AI ...

(but of course we're all working for the AI labs at this point)

Maybe it really helps:

This is why I watch soccer.

Subexponential time still can mean much larger than polynomial time. There's a huge space between the two.

stuff that's always transparent doesn't modulate light very well

But you cannot trust any human either because who knows what someone told them ...

We have alternative facts now.

But we need to move to photonics.

Except our nerves evolved, whereas monetary system is still at version 1.0.

Yes that stupid camera bump ... I hope those designers lose their jobs to AI. Then again, perhaps they already did :)
