I hate crap like this, and this is my explanation.

Large companies are not innovative, large companies suck little companies dry. Compare the dot com bubble with the AI bubble. In the dot com bubble we had thousands of small companies riding the wave. Of course a very large chunk of them went under. In the AI bubble we have a few big companies and that's it. How is that better for innovation? The only really new company is Open AI. Nvidia, Microsoft, Google, Facebook are all borg companies where innovation goes to die.

Steve Jobs was never afraid to kill off cash cows if something more innovative comes along. The companies I mentioned are not willing. Chinese companies have figured out how to run these models on less hardware. Yet American companies keep talking billions upon billions. They do so so that no little company would ever challenge them.

Take for example Musk and Optimus vs Unitree Robots. Unitree has a video where it shows a robot that can be knocked down and it gets up without problems. Musk to counter shows a robot with power lines that can do a simple kata. GIVE ME A BREAK! This is the best American engineering can do?

So to critique European innovation is yet another tactic by American "innovation" companies to try and make things go their way. BTW what the article fails to mention is that labor costs quite a bit more in America, than Europe. I am talking about high tech labor.

It isn't replacing radiologists because it doesn't matter how much better than the radiologist the IA is, the radiologists control what the requirements are, and they will always ensure that a human radiologist has to do the 'final review'.

This. I do not understand this behavior. Especially when they move their horizontal phone between their mouth and ear, so they can hear the call better.

Why don't people use their phone as it was originally designed? You know, with putting the better speaker right up to their ear? Are people really that stupid?

They could always trying pricing it less than real hamburger. It is priced like a luxury good, of course demand will be limited.

The watches are measuring 'heart rate variability' (HRV) not just 'heart rate'. And HRV is an superb measurement of physiological stress/training stress. The stress relevant for making decisions about workout intensity and recovery.

I always suspected that smoking was being used to do this in the past. I actually experimented with inhaling incense fumes (10 years ago?) to get a similar effect but abandoned it since I didn't have equipment to reasonable track progress and it was just a side interest.

I'm curious if they had backups or if they were able to corrupt and destroy the backups too.

A company whose primary product is search, added search to its chat bot, - obviously they must have copied! It isn't possible that it is an utterly obvious idea and had nothing to do with Perplexity.

No, the artists rerecord because the label tends to own the master recording copyright which screws the artist out of royalties. By rerecording they can do licensing for films, tv, and commercials that completely bypass the label.

Of course now labels are putting in contractual language to forbid them doing rerecordings.

> Take all studies like this with a grain of salt. A doctor doesn't diagnose a patient by reading a case study. They do it by talking to the patient, examining them, deciding what tests to order, etc. This is a contrived comparison that has little connection to how doctors actually work.

LLM's can do DDX's based on getting the primary complaint and asking follow up questions. It will then provide what tests to order etc. While it can't do a physical exam, they are better than doctors at all other aspects.

It has gone from reasonable amount of ads to utterly insane (especially for iPhone users).

It is now much easier to lose stars and harder and longer to get them back. They want to force users to subscriptions and are being obnoxious about it.

The point of the absurdly large model is to distill the logits to smaller models. Overparameterization makes it much easier to learn the underlying function. Once the underlying function is learned, a drastically smaller model can learn the output distribution (teacher student distillation).

Benefits of homework depend on volume completed (as opposed to assigned) and age (pre middle school have little benefit, middle school benefit from 1 hr, high school 1.5-2.5 hours) and whether the student actually does it (as opposed to copy, etc.)

As volume increases, students are more likely to skip it or cheat.

Exactly. No idea why people confuse this.

Most of the world has widely used public transport that use contactless payment, so it is a fairly obvious transition in most countries. The US lacks decent public transport for most people, and thus they have no experience with contactless payment for public transit, hence the slow adoption.
