i wouldn't trust the small llm there.

it will be an intellectual bottleneck when it comes to processing the very information your just arduously fished out of the ocean!!

Have you also measured TBW on your SSD?

thats the ideal tbh. no persistent state, except in your mind and soul.

everything else is transient. meditate on this.

r u ok?

would you really bet that this is it? there is nothing beyond this?

reminds me of the famous anecdote of a 19th century physics professor who said "there is nothing left to be discovered in physics, only minor corrections"

then came Einstein...

I have this strange sensation that I can't put into words that somehow we are on the brink of unveiling an entirely new paradigm of AIs or perhaps even of combining AI with classical algorithms in a way to rapidly iterate between each other (and sensor data) that will instantly 10x or 100x current capabilities.

Anyone else feel this?

yea, totally nuts.

clearly it's more like $540.2 quintillion at this point

Cool, but I default to pnpm these days anyway.

> Do you enjoy watching movies or series, reading comics? Going to the theatre (as in - not movies, but actual theatre)?

I really for the most part do not. I've not even seen any of the big oscar winning pieces everyone keeps talking about.

As I said to another commentator on here as well:

Without any disdain, I cannot bring myself to watch hours of another person's fantasy, when I could instead be shaping my own reality.

> Do you enjoy any fictional media? TV, movies, plays, interactive murder mystery dinners, tabletop games (d&d, etc)?

Nope, I truly live under a rock when it comes to those.

I've been wanting to watch the big ones (Hobbit, LotR, ...), but – and I say this with no disdain:

I simply cannot get myself to consume hours upon hours of somebody else's fantasy – when I could instead be shaping my own reality.

Interesting– Conversely, that is exactly how I feel about reading fiction.

To me, how can you possibly enjoy reading something some other person simply ... made up? Like an elaborate lie?

Contrarily, non-fiction tells it how it happened within the very reality I myself live in, subject to the same laws of nature and real psychology, and therefore, and only therefore, able to teach me something about real life on this earth.

Probably in the minority here but I think mocking the LLM is actually a good approach for integration testing, so these folks seem to know what they're doing :-)

> scientific understanding is not extraneous to experience; it is entirely about experience

Not true: Science is precisely about finding truths that hold even if our conscious experience of them vanished the very next moment.

> Empiricism, the grounding of knowledge in experience

Another false equivalency: by "experience" here he means "observation", not consciousness. Observations are data points, consciousness is not.

Just wow!

As I scrolled through the website, I was even more impressed with this one though!

I believe they missed the following one:

I can't remember it exactly, but in the tea-time scene, the guy gives Alice a quiz regarding the topology of a chair or something...

She tries to solve it, upon which they burst out laughing at her saying "there is no solution!"

Does anyone else remember it or am I trippin'?

honestly sounds interesting

at 19€/mo are you subsidizing it given the sharp rise of LLM costs lately?

or are you heavily restricting model access. surely there is no Opus?

Not sure I understand your criticism.

Yes, bike bells are for pedestrians to hear.

Problem: Pedestrians today wear ANC noise cancelling, thus being unable to hear approaching bikes' bells.

Skoda: We made a bell with a frequency usually not cancelled by ANC, so these pedestrians still hear it.

Sounds reasonable to me.

> and of course the mild hearing loss that accompanies _any_ frequent headphone usage

curious, you got any citations for this claim?

From what I gather qwen is currently the undisputed local LLM king.

> The Islamic Republic of Iran should not be allowed to have nuclear weapons

Neither should Israel, right ... right?

wow you're like m&m or summin

On a tangential note: It seems the whole theater with the DoD is over for now, am I seeing this right?

Looks like you can disable it though:

Doesn't matter, half of HN will still defend them.

This may sound like an insane take, but idc:

I swear people (esp here on HN) are actually blind to the weaknesses of Gemini.

I must be among the handful of people who know how thoroughly lobotomized any AI agent from Google must be given their extremely radical historical and contemporaneous practices of censorship.

Does this car also come with an exterior?

I didn't see any.

wdym, how did your dog driver license even pass before AI ?!

Any recommended resources for learning the first principles required to understand this and all the components involved?
