To be fair, this could be very make or break for Google. If someone else solves AI search properly, and they can't catch up, it would be really bad for them. G+/Facebook were another market completely so it wasn't really taking any of their current market share.
Well on one hand yes, when you're training it your telling it to try and mimic the input as close as possible. But the result is still weights that aren't gonna reproducte everything exactly the same as it just isn't possible to store everything in the limited amount of entropy weights provide.
In the end, human brains aren't that dissimilar, we also just have some weights and parameters (neurons, how sensitive they are and how many inputs they have) that then output something.
I'm not convinced that in principle this is that far from how human brains could work (they have a lot of minute differences but the end result is the same), I think that a sufficiently large, well trained and configured model would be able to work like a human brain.
Yeah I really don't get it. Signal even had something similar. They made it so you could use the app as an SMS client as well. All your contacts would show up and if they didn't have a Signal account, you could just send them SMS's. They removed the feature, but they can obviously do it.
It would probably just use RCS as the backend and have some different functionalities, they could easily just highlight "this person isn't using Signal so chat features are limited". Hell, Signal had exactly this when they made the app work as an alternative SMS client. They removed that feature, but it existed previously.
I'm pretty sure any petty theft is very hard to track down. Not just bikes, if someone broke into your house and stole some minor things it's almost certainly not gonna get found. Bikes are the same, it's very easy to resell them and repaint, and nobory registers bikes.
You are missing the very crucial part about how this is generalised. That's like saying we don't need to teach math to people anymore, we have calculators now. The AI isn't too capable currently, but dismissing it would be like dismissing consumer PCs, because what are people gonna do with computers?
I don't get it? Why? What do they gain from this? Killing a few random civilians in an airstrike on an evacuation corridor serves no purpose other than bad PR. If they want to commit genocide, there'll be lot's of people left in Gaza City. Like I genuinely can't come up with something that makes sense for why they would do this, other than they might think that there are maybe militants in that convoy? But that's still overkill and not worth the cost. Maybe they want to scare people into not leaving the city, and then say they gave them the option but they didn't leave?
Yeah but that should probably just be a comment then.
