Knorozov was born in the village of Yuzhny near Kharkiv, at that time the capital of the newly formed Ukrainian SSR

Never

I’m not trained in formal computer science, so I’m unable to evaluate the quality of this paper’s argument, but there’s a preprint out that claims to prove that current computing architectures will never be able to advance to AGI, and that rather than accelerating, improvements are only going to slow down due to the exponential increase in resources necessary for any incremental advancements (because it’s an NP-hard problem). That doesn’t prove LLMs are end of the line, but it does suggest that additional improvements are likely to be marginal.

Reclaiming AI as a theoretical tool for cognitive science

The one colleague using AI at my company produced (CUDA) code with lots of memory leaks that required two expert developers to fix. LLMs produce code based on vibes instead of following language syntax and proper coding practices. Maybe that would be ok in a more forgiving high level language, but I don’t trust them at all for low level languages.

Sigh, another major thinker who totally misunderstands LLMs and their capabilities. The fact that he cites Musk as a credible source on “AI” says it all.

The 1950s called, they want their cultural milieu back

Who’s said bye to DVDs?

Because it reports sources known to be unreliable (like Jerusalem Post and EuroNews) as Highly Trustworthy

Are you implying that Christians are responsible for the preservation of the book they culturally appropriated?

I feel like it’s an underappreciated point that Christians have never followed Jesus; they follow Paul. “Christian” has always been a marketing term for an imperialist, non-Jewish (and in fact, anti-Jewish) religion that took over the momentum of a small Jewish sect that died out once it became clear Jesus wasn’t coming back.

without compromising on visual fidelity

But it does compromise. Netflix has the worst banding issues in low-light scenes of any of the streaming services I’ve tried. It’s hard not to notice and it’s very annoying.

Good thing Ukraine isn’t their home turf

“The LGBT Center is a CIA color revolution”

• Redfash, probably

I don’t know why not; Christianity has been about imperialism since the beginning. People forget that Revelations was written by a Jewish author, and the beast he described was Christianity

That was my experience also. I had a very smart coworker, a scientist, who was libertarian, very anti-police and everything. Then Trump came along and he went full fascist. It was very disturbing, and I haven’t trusted libertarians since.

Note: I’m using libertarian as shorthand for libertarian capitalist, which is mostly how it’s used in the US, though, as noted in another comment, there are other kinds of libertarians, like libertarian socialists.

Libertarians are much friendlier with conservatives than they are with liberals, however

Yeah Startpage and Ecosia too

“Aren’t I”, as in “I’m still going with you, aren’t I?”, which, when uncontracted, becomes “are I not?” It should be “ain’t I” since “ain’t” is a proper contraction for “amn’t”, but there’s been an irrational suppression of “ain’t”.

rossia is dumb

That is the neutral answer. It’s objectively and demonstrably correct.
