trolling very close to the sun

I think its more anologous to a bank giving out a loan. There, rhe bank doesnt count any principle repayments as revenue, only interest repayments. The principal repayments are what the bank is "returning" to whoever owned the money in the first place. The interest is for the banks actual financial service. The implication being that insurance providers arent providing medicine, they are providing financial liquidity just like the bank

I wouldnt call those people smart. They might be playing a game optimally in the short term, but they are ruining a long term system. And i dont mean centuries, but decades. They need the general population 20 years from now to have grown up in a safe and prosperous environment with good education accross the board and the country to have the global influence necessary to maintain all that. They're throwing all that away for more cornering more of a market for the next 5-10 years. Its kinda dumb

Hard numbers. Like output, or investment made. Like number of cars, tons of steel, etc. Things that actually reflect reality

By what metric is twitter dead? I dont like twotter but i still see content from it linked everywhere

Yeah. Itd be ideal if companies could adjust their existing employees wages fairly. This alternative of people moving frequently creates a high turnover org which isnt efficient. But if employers dont compensate their existing employees fairly then high turnover is unfortunately the only way to go

This appears to not be discussing the article at all. To me it looks like and attempt at IDF propaganda

This is such a naive and uninformed take. I hate AI threads, it atracts the worse discourse

Not necessarily. They said AI doesnt review or decide. So it sounds to me that while AI might be used in ptocessing paperwork, the whole processing pipeline is reviewed by humans and the final decision is made by humans. So these sort of things will get caught, like this was

Theyre holding on for dear life but its futile i think. Renewables will be the future and they wont have that political leverage attached. Geopolitics is about to become more equitable. Itll be interesting to see what that looks like. Idk if itll more or less peaceful. I'd bet less honestly

Im sure theirs still market dominance to be had. But it wont be at the level that the US has with oil. This isnt just market dominance, its complete economic dominance. The US can controll all money because oil is sold in dollars. That wont be true for solar panels, simply because a country couldnt afford to go a week without oil imports, but a country could go years without solar panel imports, given how existing panels will still work and new panels can be manufactored domestically if needed (even if they are expensive). You cant jist manufactor oil, you meed to buy it

People will remember but they wont submit. The US got countries to submit to them becuase of the economic sanctions made possible by cornering the energy trade. I dont think we'll see that again given renewables becoming the meta

In yiur example, cuba will remember china's help, but china will have to keep being nice to keep that loyalty, which means conprimising with cuba rather that forcing it like the US could do

But its not just swapping the words out post hoc is it. LLMs are autoregressive, so weird word choice before would influence the probability distribution of all future tokens.

I feel like they thought it wouldnt be that bad, or it was a worthwhile tradeoff, but im getting the feeling it might be contributing heavily to opus5's uncanny communication style

As for the verbosity, my conspiracy theory is that they are token maxxing to hack revenue/enshitify the product in prep for their IPO

> China with [EVs|Solar|BESS|Turbines] will replace all of the fossil fuel countries (US, middle-east, Russia)

I dont agree with china having the same position as the FF exporters. Simply because with renewables, you export the means to produce energy rather than the energy itself. So in terms of monetary value, china will be selling alot less panels than the FF countries sell oil. And other countries can also manufactor renewables tech themselves, while with oil they couldnt materialize it under their feet

Basically i think the paradigm of the energy trade being cornered for politcal controll wont exost with renewables. Renewables are decentralized and so not controllable

Broke: the AI is sycophantic to me

Woke: im sycophantic to the AI

How did applications do it before? Like in the 90s or 00s

Did you forget about spectre and meltdown?

Its only fair. We shoudlnt socialize costs for things where the profit will be private

Which makes me think of publicly owned data centers. Interesting thought

Hosting is cheap if its abstracted away. Same with the technical aspect of maintainance

About design and the product side of maintainance, what i have felt is that, deep down inside, the user does know exactly what they need. If they can learn to communicate that in a way another person or agent can understand, then design and maintainance will be fine. Thats a big if, but if the economics align for people to benefit from developing that skill, maybe they do.

> Consumers would just use the underlying foundational models directly to solve their problem

Whether this could happen is a critical question.

What ive found currently is that its not possible because the non-determinism of the model means you cant trust it, and these tasks are such that people expect determinism. Even if they dont then they dont tolerate the kind of stupid mistakes these models make

What could happen is that the model becomes good enough to be near deterministic, or as deterministic as humans. I dont know if the current next token prediction foundation is sufficient for that. But who knows, maybe it is

And what prevented those boots on the ground from winning in vietnam?

Theyre not shy in lebanon. Theyre invading with no regard for any agreement iran and the US sign

We recently saw that lean itself isnt proven correct. Its not likely but i wouldnt call it verified if its only verified in lean

This really encapsulates what something i love about the internet that is suvtle and hard to put my finger on. I like getting exposure to random information that i just passively incorporate into my understanding of the world. Its the magic of finding reddit as a tween

Maybe but i consider other things in that as well.

One thing is art. I was in new orleans once and heard a kid play jazz saxaphone out on a street corner in the middle of the night. It was legitimately the most beautiful music ive ever heard in my life. I think that man put all his life into that solo and hit the frontier of how music can affect a listener's soul. I think he was doing great by paul grahams definition

If the chinese government feels its critical to china's success then it will be backed like alibaba and wechat and others were

Shorter sessions are most definitely the only way to go. I ensure thay by having a clean context handoff process and then using one session for one task and having it dump context when its done or gets too big (~400k tokens)

There are ways to use those agents ethically. Cloudflare isnt forcing you to be a dick with your agents. Infact the blocking side encourages you to use them ethically. I dont see the problem.

This thing will be far more specific to whatever usecase your thinking of. It wont generalize as much and as easily as LLMs do. Youre heading back towards IBM's watson

Why not? The people are obviously not healthy for doing so but why not leave it up to them to figure that out?

If someone burps loudly in front of others, would you want their access to food revoked until they stop?
