Uh oh, it's iterative self improvement time, with no training runs, we're screwed
I'm not sure it's that serious, but they did have two models, Claude and gpt were on opposing teams.
Not any more, they may be forming a coalition government as early as next year
Yeah so does wind which is where the UK gets most of its power

It seems to be just random footage spliced together, constantly skipping location
For almost all of human history we lived in very small groups with incredibly high trust, which was necessary for survival. Modern low trust societies are the exception and the rarity.
Well, you know they do a lot of cyber attacks and espionage right?
So... How does it prioritize things? That's the only question that matters

Why don't you just say which Starbucks you want to go to? Or even better if you go there all the time and it's the closest one to your home, just remember the way

WhatsApp has 3 times as many users, and as soon as meta turn it into a chat AI app people want to use, it's right there

You don't just "find" a moat in business. After all this time and money and first mover advantage, they haven't found a one yet.

They're two different questions. "I hate how sexy you are" is a complaint and a compliment.
Re:What's Earth's dominant species by mass? on Wednesday October 07, 2026 @04:48AM (#49989995)
Note the caveats "described" and "known" species. It doesn't follow that they are actually the most diverse order. This is partly because they are pretty and tough and easy to discover and preserve, and collecting beetles became a very popular entomological pastime, so we have a more complete record of beetle species than, for example, parasitic wasps or nematodes.
Re:What's Earth's dominant species by mass? on Tuesday October 06, 2026 @04:44PM (#49983830)
This is because when they would lay a sheet on the ground and shake the branches of a tree, they would often find more species of beetles than anything else. However, they may have been extrapolating a bit far from the few places they tried this.
Yes trucks are only there for the last mile, they do tiny journeys, they certainly don't make up a significant portion of interstate highway traffic and drive for hours at a time
The Wuhan institute was the world leader in bat coronavirus research. They were not studying random animals from their local wet market, they were studying bats with coronavirus which they shipped in from the only location in the world where they could be found, thousands of miles away. Then, coincidentally, coronavirus broke out in Wuhan.
Well it got his sentence quashed didn't it

Even in their example "turn the surfboard red", with a bounding box around the surfboard, it turned the whole surfer's wetsuit red too. Things are never quite going to get there.

I'm in Tottenham I don't need to go to your town to get the point. However the point remains, you can't just arrest an entire social cohort.
Trouble is you'd be scooping up 90% of boys in a certain race, class, age bracket, because those ballys and bikes and Nike tech are effectively fashion at this point even if you're doing nothing wrong. And if that's the case you don't need AI you can just wait outside the school gates and arrest everyone.

This is not the same. If everyone wants mowed lawns, and everyone is busy working on that, there is no opportunity cost, everyone is working on their top priorities. The broken window fallacy is a fallacy because the headline gdp figure doesn't account for the destruction of the window which cancels out the benefit. In the grass mowing analogy nothing has been destroyed, useful and priority work has been done all around.
Re:Human brain is two separate organs, research finds on Saturday September 19, 2026 @04:22AM (#49764512)
The comments in the other post on this topic had an article which slammed Sagan's book for being outdated and espousing debunked triune Brian theory. The article was called "your brain is not an onion with a lizard inside".
But I think the point is they learn "role" from the tone, and would ignore the JSON just like they ignore the tags already.
