For myself, I had a bunch of unresolved mental health challenges in my early twenties that made finding love practically impossible for me. Fixing those issues and learning to relate to the world in a more realistic way was huge for my ability to both give, receive, and enjoy love. And this was true no matter how much I wanted it at the time.

Second in my journey was gaining confidence in myself in social settings, not just romantic ones. Until I could consistently enjoy myself with genuine friends in a low stakes setting, how was I supposed to be able to enjoy myself with potential romantic partners in a high stakes setting?

Third, I had to recalibrate my brain from the tendencies of romantic perfectionism I had picked up on in my years of unrequited yearning. Learning to see girls as human beings, not as idols to be worshipped, was a big change (I know that sounds a bit extreme, but it’s honestly how I was approaching things). I also had to learn to care less about dumb things in romantic partners and focus more on what was truly most important: character, similarity in values, relatability, realistic levels of attraction. As long as I was only searching for someone who could give me those teenage dream vibes, I was basically ceding control of my future romantic happiness to my pituitary glands. Which pop music makes sound great but which is a terrible plan here on planet earth when talking about something so essential to your long term happiness as romantic connection and family.

So there you have it, the simple three step process that got me happily married to the love of my life and launched me into the joys of fatherhood and 2 am newborn feedings. YMMV. Good luck - you’ll figure it out.
Yeah nevermind - I can't edit my comment now, but I was clearly not thinking about this.
Fantasy: a smart guy would make a discreet 360 degree camera necklace which encodes objects as sounds, and features for facial expressions and signs. And training would be in VR, so they can can learn about train platforms, narrow hiking tracks, dangerous footpaths, surrounded by snarling stray dogs etc in a safe environment.
So your point is 'the internet allows for the cheap dissemination of information'?
Don't believe this article. If adding automation and robots to the mix does not decrease cost, it is not going to happen. Labor is the only free variable.
agreed. I use teams every day, and the meetings features are great. chat isn't as good, but it's useable. zoom is terrible and lacking basic features

I'm curious, what lead you to write such a thought and post it? In all genuine honesty I want to understand what you thought calling people worried about AI anti vaxxers and implying that because it will not cause nuclear holocaust, it must be safe would contribute to this discussion?

dead serious btw
I remember back when the PoliceOne forums were public. They eventually made it invite-only because reading that stuff for a few minutes was quite sufficient to reach this conclusion with no media in the picture.

Alternatively, if you subscribe to your police / sheriff department FB or Twitter feed or whatever they have, they will often post news about training their staff at such-and-such academy or training center. Looking those places up and reading about what they teach, exactly, can be very illuminating - "killology", for example.

And then there's the Fraternal Order of Police...
Matrix: good specs and protocol , but product wise , it offer nothing new compared to RocketChat , Slack , Mattermost . High noise low signal.

Zulip is the actual game changer in innovation of the conversation flow and makes the team actually more productive. Topic focused conversation flow make things actually productive and it made us a lot more productive.

And Zulip now supports public mode , look at official rust community and zulip's chat.zulip.org . It drives collaboration.

I get it but comments like yours make it seem intelligent for normal people, distorting the whole discussion, at least slow down with humanizing a llm, the human quips in the answers come from your prompts not from the model. Just imagine how many normal people will gaslight themselves.
> Why would I want the bomb to think? I want the bomb to follow some pretty specific instructions.

It probably hinges on how rapidly the field of battle is evolving.

Do you want your bomb to at least attempt to adapt in realtime to novel targets? To novel means of camouflage, defense, and even interdiction (rather than wait for reports in the field to eventually prompt a software patch to upgrade the weapons system)? Well, the bomb is going to have to be considerably smarter to do so.

Of course, there are just as many ways that sort of on-board capability can go awry. I imagine that painting noncombatant symbols (or the equivalent adversarial input) on combat vehicle roofs may serve to fool overly smart munitions for a short while, for example.
I'm too old to put up with software that doesn't work solely because it is closed-source and so doesn't accept patches :P Trying to get rid of the Discord client at the moment...

I'm happy to hear that my Ansible playbook for managing Matrix is helpful to people and is being appreciated!

Shameless plug - for people who'd rather not maintain their own server manually with Ansible, a few others and I are running https://etke.cc - a completely FOSS service service built on top of the Ansible playbook. Hopefully, this provides the best of both worlds - ease of getting started (on your own or on a rented server), everything built on top of FOSS, no vendor-lock-in (you can migrate to using the playbook yourself at any time, etc.).
I prefer my 50” 300$ 4k TV over the Quest for watching things. This is very much a too each his own thing, but I hated watching things in VR as I found it incredibly inconvenient, awkward, and it frankly didn’t look as good to me.
Typically these burning lasers are in the infrared spectrum and it's pretty easy to block the entirety of that. Visible lasers, particularly very powerful ones, tend to only fall in a handful of wavelengths due to the way they work so it's less of a problem than it sounds like it is.
I have an 11 year old here that sometimes really amazes me with his knowledge and persistence and I have zero doubt that if he was motivated to bypass something like this he'd get there, eventually. Never underestimate the reserves of persistence in a teenager that is determined to get their hands on something. I wished I had that kind of focus.

Walmart and the Waltons dump gobs of money on Northwest Arkansas. It doesn’t make much sense to compare it to the rest of the state. Bentonville is a pretty nice place to raise a family. Public museums, schools, parks, bike trails, all really nice.

It must have some length restriction though, no? A GPT always has a max context window if I understand correctly. It's likely Bing has access to models with a much larger context window than what is accessibly through the OpenAI API.
If search engines can't find a way to filter the bad information, all the automated scraping of knowledge will become perilously untrustworthy.

I suspect we may see domain trust become significantly more important, and that may have a chilling effect on legitimate websites gaining a foot hold in search indexes. We already have this issue mind you. Most of my searches for popular topics end up with generated or scraped content in them, unless there is a domain authority with major sway that takes up the majority of results.

Maybe we will see the return of curated web directories? Or maybe the web becomes a barren wasteland as everyone flees to social applications.

Actually, no, "only you" can't stop it. No one can.

There was a book in the 80's called The Hundredth Monkey that posited that if only enough people opposed nuclear technology, there would be a magical critical mass of people after which it would become apparent to everyone in the whole world that nuclear technology was, you know, really bad and stuff, and it would all just go away.

We know how that went.

Like nuclear technology, AI technology development is in part an arms race. One huge difference is that AI's technological underpinnings are already far more widely available and understood than any nuclear technology ever was. Its myriad forms — neural nets, deepfakes, predictive spell check, Adobe Photoshop object selection filters, spam filters, deep learning, machine learning, large language models, etc — already permeate much of technology and life. Where does one draw the line?

Like nuclear technology, if any entity voluntarily decides to "voluntarily shut AI down," the other governments/rogue states/corporations/NGO's/financial firms/universities/etc in the world will merrily continue doing so, leaving the voluntary Luddite in the same dust as every other voluntary Luddite. Or even worse, such an entity (say, the US or Chinese governments) would in all likelihood not actually stop developing AI themselves, just ban others from having it, which would create another insane governmental "war" and enforcement regime, like the War on Drugs or War on Terrorism. Again, we know how both of those went.

One of the reasons OpenAI as founded was specifically because of this. To paraphrase @sama, AGI should belong to everyone, not to any one corporation or government. https://www.yahoo.com/now/openai-founder-sam-altman-says-221...

At the end of the day, the author may be right. Being right is also irrelevant. AI development will continue to hurtle forward. The real question is what do we do with it?
That may well be true, but other providers of similar services seem to have this working just fine.
as opposed to zoom that doesn't even have a search?
Thats $12B of spend which boosts ancilliary jobs which exist solely because millions of people were made to commute to and from their homes to work in offices. And, the inherent value of offices, and income from ground rents, and associated value evaporates if too many prestige towers go on the market at once.

So "costing" Manhattan, but also.. costing society at large. Yes, $12B was sucked out of Manhattan's economy. But aspects of that got spread into other regions, other local districts, pollution got avoided, people had more quality time at home, productivity may have risen.

It sucks to be depending on customers to sell soup and a sandwich: no disagree.
>It's not because something is private that suddenly no regulations apply.

So you're saying that Catholic seminaries are required to admit muslims that want to become imams, and therefore the Catholic seminaries will be required to start a islamic department to train muslims to become imams? (rhetorical question).

So as far as the fairness of the admission process goes, all applicants should apply with no name, race, creed, or any type of way to identify who and where someone comes from? Do away with essays as they are super easy way to identify the background of an applicant? Pure test scores only?

I totally disagree with your saying that the issue isn't with some categories are over-represented. That's just not the case at all.
A doctor’s office can have multiple doctors. A grocery store is staffed on shifts.
My point is to highlight the irony of the author being guilty of what he rails against.
It has been shown to fail in less predictable ways. We have a good intuition of the stupid things people are going to do on the roads.
It's hard to express how much I disagree with that position, given the context.

Contrarianism isn't interesting purely for its own sake, especially in relation to child abuse. And the internet is full of voices who are knee-jerk contrarian for the pure sake of it. Most of what they have to say is meaningless noise.
Yes, actually. If they want to convey an idea, it's not onerous to ask them to not scream in the process. If they are doing it solely to intimidate, that's not protected free speech.

These just sound like opportunities to learn. If you’re on average outperforming betting odds then of course use your system. For the chess and driving examples you can analyze those recommendations to figure out the rationale and incorporate a new strategy or a new route in your knowledge (or learning the system is unreliable and avoid it).
Hello GPT.
"did then die" is understating it. The Great Dictator was filmed in 1939, long before most of the world knew the true horrors that had and would take place. Chaplin wasn't alone in calling out the dangers, but he was in the minority.

i just asked chatgpt how many humans live in the solar system and it said none.
Yes, thank you! Overlaying the two, that is indeed awfully close to at least one end: https://snipboard.io/ADVdcO.jpg

What puzzles me is that the other end is so far off that it's outside what I had previously screenshotted of the map (so not visible when intersecting the two). From my POV, the angle difference between start and end was close to zero, like it came fairly straight down. That would be in line with yours if it roughly came towards me, as it roughly indeed did afaict, but I don't think the Brighton pier video had that wide a range. (I should re-watch it to be sure, though.)

There are also various reported angles on this event page https://ams.imo.net/members/imo_view/event/2023/937 but half of those honestly look in line with what I previously noticed where a video might have a description "facing east from Jersey" which would mean Paris is in the ~center of their view, not the English channel in front of Dieppe, resulting (because no visible landmarks) in lines like these horizontal/vertical ones <https://snipboard.io/d3rkNI.jpg>. Compared to all that, your report is definitely more useful! It would seem the meteor traveled at least 30 if not 50 km in those ~five seconds!

I don't for a second doubt the insights derived from many of the Lesson Learned Retrospective Hot Wash Exit Interview type structured exercises of which this is one of the better, but there is an air of the Maginot Line preparing for tactics of a previous conflict while any ensuing false sense of accomplishment can increase exposure to new risk factors. The exception is if you can identify patterns over time across samples.

Quite the condescending view there. I invite you to consider that our society and our women are aware and educated enough not to fall for rosy words like "progress" to actually mean true progress, and to us it is actually a regression, so it doesn't really interest us.
No, that's not what |I'm supposing. The 80386 got used in vending machines because technology moves on, the new stuff gets cheap, and because it's more generally useful, it gains in popularity while the old stuff loses it, even in cases where the old stuff is adequate. The same process will probably happen for AGI - unless non-AGI has capabilities that AGI can't replicate, AGI will probably replace it.
Stunning stuff. The dark sunspot in the foreground and the one behind the tangle of plasma is intruiging.
I think you're on to something here. The closest equivalent I can think of is academic publishing. There's tons and tons of total garbage among some good research, and pretty much the only way to find the good stuff is to look at what people at top institutions are doing or what the top journals are publishing.
This move is the exact polar opposite of how I'd like Mozilla to behave. And possibly a strong case for decentralization.

It's confusing to me that we keep accepting internet as it is and modifications to what we view - such as ad blockers or paywall removal tools - are so rare. Back in the time Firefox had a major part of the market share, now it's negligible. Instead of using that situation to take brave moves aiming at re-imagining the internet, they succumb to content creators instead of working for the user. I wish some company forked Firefox and took it back in the direction it aimed for.

Childhoods of Exceptional People
Chess is extremely simple compared to human affairs and causality. We only perceive a small slice of what's going on around us (and much of that is incorrect) so it may seem reasonable that AI can figure it out. And even if it can, I wouldn't expect us to take it's good advice.
I think the GP's ask is for native Windows support, which is orthogonal to anything WSL/WSL2 can do.

That’s a fair point. I think I’m maybe a bit stuck on AGI specifically. As in, indistinguishable from a human being and truly general. You can ask it in natural language to do any computational task.

I don’t know why you’d prefer a “human being” to control the bomb, when most of our technological history in this space is trying to remove humans from the equation considering how many errors they make.

In a true AGI, one advanced enough to make the original poster concerned about the morals of enslaving it, MOST of it’s training is on things unrelated to being a successful bomb.

If I want to understand my program and where it spends time, I use a profiler. If Go maintainers want telemetry, they should provide an optional profiler that adds telemetry and whoever wants to opt in can use it after twiddling the appropriate knobs. Just claiming violation of CoC and forcing it on the entire userbase is atrocious.

If I have not made my code open source, stop snooping. If you want to know how your features are used, go and analyze open source codebases.

And it must be default turned off. Don't use dark patterns like default telemetry on and hoping that x% of users will forget to turn it off in a week and we will get our data. Smells bad.
> So TLDR: I think it probably does amount to some level of slavery, humans will only recognize sentience when either it’s advantageous for us to do so or when it becomes impossible to deny (maybe a few generations after they become real),

I'm curious as to what sort of "generation" you mean here; do you mean organic human generations, software generations (ie. however long it takes humans to design, train, and release a new version of the AGI), AGI generations (ie. however long it takes an AGI to design, train, and launch a successor), Moore's Law hardware generations, or something else?

What you are describing is basically a blind index (search for it, there are lots of good resources online). Blind indexes can be quite useful, but they have a number of limitations - the partial match issue as you point out, but also you cannot do range queries or sorting, and they leak some information (e.g. duplicates have the same index value). Blind indexes are most definitely not fully homomorphic encryption.
