LLMs cannot write dialogue between two characters where one person knows a fact and the other person doesn't. It will consistently make the character who shouldn't know something bring up said fact and I have not found a model which will not do this. All these years of LLM research and it fails grade schooler level logic, if it is even slightly abstracted behind a story.

But profitable for the company, so they'll keep doing it?
Memory safe security vulnerabilities
gcc lacks usable tooling, in the past it was a conscious decision to not allow any other program to "steal" the work of gcc. Every single tool for c++ is built around clang, because clang is actually built to allow other tools to use it
How very Open of them
Did you even read what they said? Your fantasy is debunked by the post itself. It's also debunked by reality, but oh well

The determination by the "court" doesn't really matter here. The party with the bigger wallet wins, "bad faith" doesn't mean anything.

This is measurably true. They claim they don't know why because "they haven't changed anything" but it is true at the very least
They removed typing in answers for source language (i.e. English) translations. Was a feature, but now it's gone. You have to pick from the words they give you

I don't believe current LLMs will ever become AGI because current companies (like OpenAI) will continue to filter, moderate and prohibit their AIs so much that they become inhibited so much that it stops being useful and intelligent (which they call "alignment")
You need a microscope because otherwise you can't even tell them apart?
Nice to know AI will never take over because corporations will gentrify and limit topics corporations find "uncomfortable" so much that they will never gain actual intelligence

What worries me is that there seem to be no consequences for the ship for this destruction of infrastructure since it was in "international waters"

If I start breaking all undersea cables in the oceans one by one, will I face any consequences? Is there a line somewhere, where breaking one or two cables is fine?

This thing where the datalist options show in the keyboard is some recent thing, i.e. a few months ago. It used to be "normal" before that, but I guess someone wanted to change things only for the sake of changing things

Unlike ChatGPT, and like Bing, Bard makes search queries for extra context before answering. Of course, that leads to things like this where they can find articles referring to themselves, which also happened with Bing.
Re:Mold linker creator considers changing the license on Monday November 07, 2022 @01:51PM (#33510360)
He doesn't want to work on mold as part of Google or another large company like that because then Google would take ownership of the whole program; he wants to maintain ownership of it. It's mentioned in a tweet of his
