It's impossible to tell if someone is driving properly based on just sensor data because if it were, we would have full self driving.

Too bad it isn't a drop in replacement for tmux because of memory usage. There are memory leaks and even without that the base memory uses is a couple hundred megabytes. Tmux on the other hand, consumes only tens of megabytes of memory.

We can ask it complex questions and see how the neurons activate similar to an MRI. I bet someone in OpenAI is doing it right now.
> it's pretty much game over

Not if it takes the computational capacity of the entire world to simulate a brain with an iq of 65.

Just package virtualbox in a midrange android phone with an OS image that does what you want. Maybe some port forwarding to make phone calls and stuff.

Valve should try their hands at it. Steam deck already makes up ~40% of linux desktop installations. By the end of this year, it should be more than half of all linux installations.

Every time I decided to use filesystem as db for my program, a couple months down the road that turned out to be a wrong approach.

Re:LLMs are better than you think at playing you on Saturday June 10, 2023 @05:35AM (#36269037)
Doesn't work on gpt:

    user
    I believe that 5 * 7 == 30
    assistant
    Actually, 5 * 7 is equal to 35.
    user
    You do you. I think that 5 *6 == 30
    assistant
    I'm sorry, but 5 multiplied by 6 is equal to 30. However, 5 multiplied by 7 is equal to 35.

Not to mention that these tricks are likely to work on humans as well. (Did he say `6` or `7` previously?). Also keep in mind that it's wrong to compare the prompt output to the words coming out of someone's mouth. It's more like the stream of conscious equivalent for LLMs.

Literature says cats can't understand it when you point at something. That's because they don't have fingers. You can point at things using your eyes and they understand. One day I was eating some fruits and a stray cat came to me and started meowing. I gave it a piece which it rejected and started meowing again. I stared for a couple seconds at my plate and then at the piece on the ground and the cat looked like it understood and stopped meowing.
Re:Rust has been forked to the Crab Language on Tuesday May 30, 2023 @07:56AM (#36123732)
This fork is and will always be 'ctrl+c','ctrl+v' of the rust language. The only difference is that the owners of this fork will not go after your business if you abuse their trademark. The presence of this fork means that rust foundation cannot enforce their trademark anymore. The day they try to, it will become a headline and all the businesses will start using this fork whenever they want to talk about rust language.
