> They contacted Facebook, which at the time dominated the social media landscape, asking for help scouring uploaded family photos - to see if Lucy was in any of them. But Facebook, despite having facial recognition technology, said it "did not have the tools" to help.

Willing to bet my life savings that they are able to do exactly this when the goal is to create shadow profiles or maximize some metric.

> models correctly interpret these questions as attempts to discredit / shame the model

So they respond by... discrediting themselves?

Both

I keep an iPhone SE 1st gen as a secondary phone. It still has the last best keyboard iOS had. Almost zero mistakes. Probably because no AI and other overoptimizitation BS. Every time I go back to my primary 13 I want to cry.

Agree + I highly recommend Rectangle or Rectangle Pro for the same reasons.

You're in for a surprise buddy.

What's the business plan here?

I have more than 20 years of email in my gmail account. How do I even start migrating?

And even if I migrate, I will need to keep my address alive and forwarding to my new address at least for a few years. So no privacy gains there either.

Does anyone have concrete advice as to how to make the transition?

Why do we hold calculators to such high bars? Humans make calculation mistakes all the time.

Why do we hold banking software to such high bars? People forget where they put their change all the time. Etc etc.

Is there any reason to use Office nowadays except for being able to open documents sent by institutions where secretaries still use Word/Excel/PPT? (universities, etc.)

Thank you for your important work. This is such a maddening and frustrating state of the world.

Where is this figure taken from?

I cannot judge the science in most of the article since I'm not a medical doctor.

But since I have a PhD in computer science in a relevant subdomain, I can certainly judge the part where he recommends the following:

> What should you do with your test results? Throw them into ChatGPT, of course!

Do not count on anything coming out of ChatGPT for medical advice. Period.

I think it was mostly the eager evaluation that made it possible to debug every step in the network forward/backward passes. Tensorflow didn't have that at the time which made debugging practically impossible.

Can you say more about why you're moving away from GitHub?

It's an informative post but I really dislike the language and style that are becoming common in this kind of posts, e.g.:

> Look, first of all, you’re as unique as the other 1000 peanut gallery enjoyers that have made the same astute observation before you. Congratulations. But you’re absolutely missing the point.

Game theory or Bayesian inference?

Agree that there's something fishy/missing in this story. Never say never, but I find it extremely unlikely that Google/Amazon lawyers, based in the US, would agree to such a blatantly mafia-like scheme.

What is inconsistent between banning hate speech and banning advocacy for terrorism?

Not proof (if there is any such thing for intelligence) but a very strong indicator, yes.

This is a strawman argument. No anti-AI sentiment was involved here. Simply the fact that finding and matching text on the Internet is several orders of magnitude easier than finding novel solutions to hard math problems.

One of the most informative and eye opening articles I found on HN. Thanks for posting.

This was actually shown to not really work in practice.

Seems very incremental and very far from the pompous 'superintelligence' goal.

What is nonsense about this story?

> “It can’t be understated what this system is capable of doing,” said Matt McCool, the special agent in charge of the Secret Service’s New York field office.

I want that name.

Thank you brother. This has been driving me insane for years. A remarkable lack of attention to details.
