The best part of Open AI’s self professed goal to make an AGI is that the more we learn about LLM’s the more it becomes clear that they inherently can never bridge the gap to AGI.
One would almost think the constant complaining about mythical dangers of AGI might be a distraction from the real more mundane dangers LLM’s pose here and now like exasperating bias, making mass misinformation easy, and of course shielding major companies from accountability.
Or the other option is that it’s just marketing, look at how scary our totally real product is, look how fast it improved when we went from a medium sized dataset to the largest that will ever be possible, don’t ask questions like why would a autocomplete that has been feed the entire internet actually help our business, just pay us and bolt it on to whatever you can.
It’s worth noting that research tends to lead manufacturing by ten to fifteen years. Mostly just down to the fact that making a few kilograms of something in a lab is a far cry from making and assembling tons an hour. Research also tends to take time to move between technologies, as most scientists don’t like to abandon projects half way though just becuse someone else published something interesting.
Also, while I don’t watch the battery space to closely, from my understanding there has traditionally been safety considerations stemming from large quantities of sodium given its tendency to react rather hot and fast when exposed to water.
I highly doubt that Lithium mines have that sort of power. More likely there are either more mundane suspected downsides that aren’t being so breathlessly reported, or simply that it’s too new.
It takes time to switch production lines, and actual demand from battery consumers. Of Lithium Ion is good enough to meet thier requirements than why rush to something that hasn’t been proven in the field yet? If thier already struggling to meet demand with thier current output why risk taking a bunch of lines down to maybe see demand there?
I mean, the Australian mines are terrible for the environment, not like the nice and clean coal mines next door; and i mean, you can only recycle like 97% of the lithium with modern processes, not like gas where you can use it over and over again./s
It’s worth noting that waste wise reusable rockets are very rare. You have falcon 9, which doesn’t reuse its second stage, and electron, which I don’t believe has caught a second stage yet. Maybe the space shuttle by technicality, though that was more of a refurbishment that proper reflight, or buran, by an even more generous margin.
There are other reusable rockets planed such as new glen and vulcan, but nither of those have made it as far as starship has. Of the dosen or so currently active orbital rockets, there are only two that can be reused in any meaningful capacity, and they both don’t recover the second stage.
What your seeing is a design strategy known as “fail faster”, and is hardly unique to Musk. While it is worrying to see this silicon valley “brilliance” slowly seep into the real world instead of just entertainment software, given that starship is not only unmanned but likely to stay that way for some time it’s not that worrying in general.
Well mostly, part of the reason that the first test flight was surprising is that the seemed to have miscalculated the speed of the flight termination system, which does effect people on the ground, but this launch did show that it’s been fixed. Tasking several flights to make orbit is also pretty common for non maned space flight.
It was definitely impressive to see a single shock dimond the size of the entire booster. Didn’t blow up the launch pad either so they should be able to try again sooner to.
I’d suggest that e-bikes have at least some advantage over traditional motorcycles in that you can take them onto public transport such as metro or rail. Or one might find easier parking for them at an enclosed stand af a nearby but out of walking range train station that helps you shave a bus and transfer off your commute in nice weather. The electric motor is definitely an advantage over unpowered bikes in convenience, and a major factor if one can’t or won’t shower when they get to work.
That being said i’d be amazed if it shifts the needle more than a percent or two at most. Proper show up and go metros take cars off the road by being so obviously better than having to find parking, but e-bikes don’t have the same end user benefits.
This is all to say nothing of rural areas, which often don’t have the density to support frequent transit becuse “why are we running empty buses, they aren’t turning a profit and that’s all that matters”, but amusingly most of farm country, at least in the US, was actually built around the idea that you would bike in to town if it didn’t require the cart. I mean it make that sane you would need to drop the 50mph limits on country roads down to 35 or so, and the sun will grow cold before any town politician survives trying that, but it was possible.
I don’t exactly expect that a smallish internet fourm can fix the fetishization of high school children across the english speaking world, but we absolutely can effect this preticular lemmy community.
While I also have it blocked, it is really hard to say recommend lemmy to friends when even from beehaw you have “i can’t believe it’s not child porn” making up a bunch of /all.
It’s worth noting that grid scale tends towards far better ROIs of 7 to 10 years. Home systems are a lot more expensive seeing as about half the cost of them tends to be in labor and markup as compared to the economies of scale larger projects. Still often worth it, but significantly more than a properly managed power company in a favorable regulatory environment can do.
How dare they support such blatant antisemitism. See this is the problem with the woke liberal left, all these rabi and jews just hate the jews so much./s
I mean, pedofiles are trying to scale up sex abuse though the education system, at least here in the US. Abstance only sex “education’s” primary effect beyond increasing teen pregnancy is to make it harder for children to recognize and report sexual assault.
I wonder why a party who’s membership is commonly convicted of having sex with minors and in which one of the most influential alt-right leaders is a convicted rapist (Trump), might heavily support expanding it while labeling anything else as “grooming” children.
Weather or not the copyrighted data shows up in the final model is utterly irrelevant though. It is illegal to use copyrighted material period outside of fair use, and this is most certainly not. This is civil law, not criminal, the standard is more likely than not rather than beyond a reasonable doubt. If a company cannot provide reasonable evidence that they created the model entirely with material they own the rights to use for that purpose, than it is a violation of the law.
Math isn’t a person, doesn’t learn in anything approaching the same method beyond some unrelated terminology, and has none of the legal rights that we afford to people. If it did, than this would be by definition a kidnapping and child abuse case not a copyright case.
To be fair, the need for nukes is in northern climates where heat pumps require the most energy in the depths of winter, when the sun is lowest and daylight shortest. Colorado by contrast has and will continue its highest energy demands in the peak of hot summer days thanks to the energy cost of cooling.
The capacity to enforce thier ethnostate doesn’t seem like that much of a change when discussing thier idoligy. If Russia or Pakistan have Hamas a standing army and nukes tomorrow i doubt they would suddenly change thier stated end goals, simpley be capible of far more violence in furtherance of thouse goals.
Meh, their similar enough that up until 2019 Israel publicly funded Hamas to explicitly weaken the Palestinian government. Both sides want thier little far right ethnostate. The only distinction in their minds is which race gets it.
