I bet OpenAI is realizing they've hit some bump in achieving actual AGI.

If they don't reach it, does Microsoft essentially come away with a perpetual license for all OpenAI stuff? That doesn't seem fair, but maybe it's binding?

The definition of AGI aside, seems like an interesting court case.

Given that experience, how would you apply that to the current conversation so there's not a repeat?

How do we improve their success rate while still giving education on essential tools?

AI is here -- you can dislike it, but it'd be a mistake to ignore it. I recognize we're worried about AI making us dumber in the same way phones removed our memory for phone numbers. But, this tool is incredibly useful and not going anywhere, just like phones.

The same way we trained kids on computers, they should be taught AI compentency. With AI competency comes language, critical thinking, and research -- huge skills applicable everywhere, not just AI.

And when they need help learning a new subject, they should apply that competency to getting the Math/etc. help they need. Using AI to learn a new subject has been far and above the best use case in my life, and with competency training kids (and teachers) can find the same educational impact.

It doesn't need to be a detriment.

Are you sure you know what you're talking about? Grok ensures me that Elon is smarter than everyone else, and that his platforming of divisive propaganda and bigotry are actually going to make America the best.

i guess? having access to your data has never been more profitable than it is today; you can see all this as them ripping a band-aid off.

it's a good thing they removed Don't Be Evil from their maxims.

Steam OS -- Linux, running apps through Proton (Wine) -- on average runs games faster than Windows does.

I still find Wikipedia as useful as it ever was, but you seem to have some good details on it -- why is it a bad word to you these days?

Now if they could bring the Metro design language with it that'd be pretty sweet.

Stack Overflow messed up by not having a "close with explanation" option. They are too focused on experts and data quality.

If you understand How To Ask Questions, Stack Overflow is fantastic. I've had nothing but good experiences.

If you're a newbie, you will ask a question that you are so lost on that you'll get closed as a dupe of a question that seems unrelated to yours. The expert will have seen three layers deep into your issue and found the real problem, correctly closing it as a dupe.

On one hand, Stack Overflow gets to have clean data. On the other hand, that newbie doesn't understand why their question was closed, doesn't have their problem solved, and probably jumps on reddit saying how awful Stack Overflow is.

The person voting to close does not need to leave an explanation. A lot don't.

I equate art's future to the coffee mug of today. You can spend $40 on a nice hand-made mug and have an art piece that is meaningful to you --- or you can spend $15 and get a mass-produced set of 4 from Walmart.

There will always be room for human-made creations. It's just going to be much less common.

It's just a look into how businesses report things. This sort of unnuanced messaging might be comforting for shareholders because it seems like a simple problem to solve.

Productivity not at the pace you want? It's not the fault of our business model, project planning, etc. -- the worker bees are just lazy and we need to fix their entitled work ethic.

Recall is performed offline. They aren't sending anything into the cloud.

You're kinda describing a variation of the typical multi-level A* pathing system used for ages by games.

A* actually lends itself really well to adding extra weights (like traffic, hills, trucking limitations, etc.) and dimensions (coordinating a fleet), it's very flexible. I have no clue if A* is at all appropriate for mapping on a national level, but I can't think of why not.

TFA is somewhat vague but it appears that cinoared ti a square, the hexagons' more circular shape allow for a better 'fit' over natural geography while also allowing a larger and more diverse set of connections if you imagine them as a graph with each face connecting.

I'd expect an office to just chill at high intensity 6500k because that's "alert" lighting. As a business owner you wouldn't want sunset to roll around at 5pm and all your lights are sitting at 3000k and dim because that means people are winding down at work. I'm down for this kind of home lighting 100% though; have been doing it for years.

TFA mentions that Mitchell has had his title restored last year at Twin Galaxies and five years ago from Guinness World Records. I've been under the impression that the guy is a cheater, and now I'm wondering if this Youtuber put that image in my head.
