I think they know, or at least see that it's an issue, but what are they suppose to do? Either they stay out of a large number of countries, which seriously hamper their options for expansion or they speculate in it being hard to prove.

It also create an uneven playing field. Western countries can't do business in large part of the world, while companies from those same countries are free to sell anywhere.

The key is that they were selling in State. If John Deere were to pull out of the state they could advertise all they want, and people could still purchase the tractors from out of state, but they wouldn't have to follow that, lol. I am not a lawyer, but I do work in public policy for the past 22 years. I don't see how this is enforceable should the company leave.

A comparison is the purchase of a vehicle. In 21 states, the manufacture of a vehicle can sell directly to the consumer. In the rest of the states, the law says that a manufacture is for bidden from selling directly to consumers. Yet people buy cars and bring them across state lines, all the time, whether they purchased it from the manufacturer or a dealer. If the point of sale occurs outside of Colorado, and John Deere has no corporate presents in Colorado, then I don't see how this is applicable.

My years on this blue ball have repeatedly taught me that technical solutions meant to "correct" human interpersonal problems don't usually work out how they're intended. They initially _work_, but humans rebel against them and the problem ends up compounded. Reminds me of traffic cameras.
My process is kind of organic.

I'll start working on a project, and if I run into something that feels wrong about the Doom Emacs default config/keybindings, I'll just open up a conversation with ChatGPT (the GPT-4 model, it's much better than 3.5).

I'll tell it that I'm using Doom Emacs, and then explain what I want, or what problem I'm having, and it will output code that I can try. It's not always correct on the first try, and sometimes I have to have a dialogue with it for a little while before it gets it right. Sometimes it struggles and begins to guess - and for those cases, I'll fall back to doing manual searches in Google, and if that fails, give up entirely and just write myself a TODO comment and keep marching forward.

It's help me set up config quickly that would've taken me a very long time to figure out.
Low taxes and weather. But low taxes tends towards low services, and current political trends make it difficult for many groups. Weather might become less of an advantage if temperatures keep rising and/or storms keep getting stronger. The fight to avoid purple states will be messy, but perhaps inevitable?

Perhaps there’s a generational change being prepared by the influx of urbanites?
This might be a great article, but it is important to note that this comes from a company founded by Deepak Chopra, who is a famous figure and undoubtedly has done some good work but is a deeply flawed person, perhaps a charlatan really.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepak_Chopra

> Chopra has metaphorically described the AIDS virus as emitting "a sound that lures the DNA to its destruction". The condition can be treated, according to Chopra, with "Ayurveda's primordial sound".[18] Taking issue with this view, medical professor Lawrence Schneiderman has said that ethical issues are raised when alternative medicine is not based on empirical evidence and that, "to put it mildly, Dr. Chopra proposes a treatment and prevention program for AIDS that has no supporting empirical data".

> Chopra has been criticized for his frequent references to the relationship of quantum mechanics to healing processes, a connection that has drawn skepticism from physicists who say it can be considered as contributing to the general confusion in the popular press regarding quantum measurement, decoherence and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.[136] In 1998, Chopra was awarded the satirical Ig Nobel Prize in physics for "his unique interpretation of quantum physics as it applies to life, liberty, and the pursuit of economic happiness"

> In May 1991, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) published an article by Chopra and two others on Ayurvedic medicine and TM.[144] JAMA subsequently published an erratum stating that the lead author, Hari M. Sharma, had undisclosed financial interests, followed by an article by JAMA associate editor Andrew A. Skolnick which was highly critical of Chopra and the other authors for failing to disclose their financial connections to the article subject.[145] Several experts on meditation and traditional Indian medicine criticized JAMA for accepting the "shoddy science" of the original article.[146] Chopra and two TM groups sued Skolnick and JAMA for defamation, asking for $194 million in damages, but the case was dismissed in March 1993.

Not someone with a great track record.
It's illustrative that, even with its history of lopsided deals with creators, Universal Music has the ethical high ground in this case because at least they have legally-binding business arrangements with their artists.
I wonder what happened to the people who decided to buy it? Was it bought with intention to integrate it or to close it?

> Neural networks are modeled of human brains in some ways

Hum... Not really. They are modeled after our periferic nervous system. Detailed knowledge about the brain wasn't very available at computer science departments at the time they were created. Besides, they have a much "cleaner" design that would win the computer scientists esthetic preferences every time anyway.

If you're interested in Linux history, check out Just For Fun by Linus Torvalds himself. It's written in 1999 if I recall, which is so much closer to Linux's inception than it is to today, so it's so interesting to hear thoughts and predictions about Linux at the time.

Super cheap book. I think I got my copy for $4 on ebay.
The AWS Acceptable Use Policy is at https://aws.amazon.com/aup/ and other providers will have similar.

> You may not use, or facilitate or allow others to use, the Services or the AWS Site ... to violate the security, integrity, or availability of any user, network, computer or communications system, software application, or network or computing device;

There's no cutoff because it's not about the number of connections; you could conceivably violate this policy with a single connection, and you could be in compliance with a million connections. Note the term "unwarranted" in OP's post.
1. My point is that YOU can't. The idea that a human can perfectly measure ability that far surpasses their own and compare if to other abilities that far surpass their own makes no sense.

2. A recursively self-improving AI would appear omniscient or omnipotent in a very short period of time. A recursively self-improving AI converting the solar system into compute for further recursive self-improvement would be unfathomable.

3. You're operating from an anthropic lens. Your conception of a superintelligence is a machine with an intellect that is slightly smarter than the smartest human. A machine with an IQ of 1000 would be God. We have no ability to conceptualize a machine with an IQ of 1,000,000.

That's exactly what "Zero To Production" is about. Actually most of what makes Rust intro material good is that you are building things, not just going on about syntax and language particulars.

I am of the opinion that the process used to create this image (or any AI image) can be considered an art form. For the author to correctly find the language and prompts needed for an AI to generate this image is a new type of art-form, from my point of view.

It doesn't mean, of course, that we shouldn't be able to understand the origins of the image and correctly categorize it. Contests like this will definitely have to grapple with their handling of generated images, just like they've had to decide rules about photoshopped images.
> A german company can create 1600 liters of carbon neutral fuel using 1 MW of power.

> LLMs are so hyped and written about these days that it would be hilarious if the next version of GPT trained on todays internet would be biased towards praising itself

Hyped, feared, praised, mocked. Whatever bias it ends up with depends on which part of the Internet gets added to the training corpus. Reddit, Twitter, YouTube transcripts, news articles, HN, academic papers - they all have a different range of viewpoints, and a different typical take on LLMs.

It's going to be interesting, to say the least.
Thanks for all the advice!

There are many extant indigeneous groups across Central and South America who still retain the use of their traditional languages, often alongside Spanish. Around Mexico/Guatemala these are often Mayan languages such as Tzotzil in the Mexican state of Chiapas, but other language famailies include the Choco languages (such as the languages of the Embera and Wounaan people, most of whom live in the Darién region of Panama). In South America you have groups like the Mapuche with their own languages, and in the Amazon alone there are over 3,000 recognised indigenous territories.

In many of the Caribbean regions of those countries (particularly Central America), Spanish might not be spoken at all, with most people instead speaking an English creole alongside an indigenous language such as Garifuna (e.g., see https://en.m.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Caribbean_Nicaragua ).

Then you get into the Caribbean where some islands speak Dutch or French (or creoles thereof), and of course Brazilians speak Portuguese rather than Spanish (though there is some mutual intelligibility there).

Also, it's worth stressing that in many of these areas, knowledge of a language does not mean the ability to read or write it.
Frankly, sounds like a privacy nightmare for a little gain.

Well, they're welcome to try.

If there's a potential for it to be fair-use, the researcher can scrape the data any way they can get their hands on it. Universal is certainly able to ask specific channels to refrain from facilitating this use case, but that won't stop the training (it'll just make it necessary to go through the analog hole and slow it down a bit).
I disagree with everything you're saying and think that I have pointed out why. The 5-10% cost is for commercial solar. Not for carbon generation. PG&E profits are limited by law. The grid needs capacity to provide 100% non-local power. Rooftop solar doesn't reduce any grid costs.

Great read. The first distribution I used was TAMU (https://archiveos.org/tamu/) in 1992, when Linux wasn't yet at 1.0. I had to download dozens of floppy disk images. In those days, getting X to run involved real risk. Get some of the parameters wrong and you could destroy your monitor. My five kids (all in their 20s and 30s now) grew up running Linux. It's still the OS I choose when the option is available.
They may be referring to Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act [1], which:

> ...requires federal agencies and any institution that receives federal funding to make electronic technology and information equally accessible for individuals with disabilities. This means that an organization's website must have all features just as accessible for individuals with disabilities as these features are for individuals without disabilities. For example, it must be equally easy for an individual with a disability to find information about an organization's services on their website as it is for non-disabled individuals to access this information.

This is an American law, but obviously other countries may have their own equivalents.

And this is kind of a huge deal. 3 different implementations rather than 2 is kind of like the old saying "never go to sea with two chronometers, take one or three".

I'm not saying Blink exactly matched WebKit anymore, before your re-architecture. But it shared a lot.

If you have a difference in behavior between 2 implementations, then it's easy to see think of it as saying one or the other is right. And which one is right will be partly influenced by the amount of exposure the feature has had, multiplied by market share. Which is not a great criterion to use if you want a spec that hangs together, especially if a reimagining like Servo is going to come along and rub against the grain of every arbitrary decision ever made.

> LLMs currently statistically regurgitate existing data.

This is clearly not true in any meaningful sense - c.f. the Othello paper, examples from the top of this very comment thread, etc.

> Can it come up with a corridor when it has no idea that such a concept exists?

Unless I'm missing something, the person I replied to is claiming that it categorically cannot come up with a concept it hasn't been trained on. I'm disagreeing - if a model knows about rooms and doors and floorplans, there's no obvious reason why it mightn't think up an arrangement of those things that would be novel to the people who trained it. If you think the matter remains to be seen, then I'm not sure what you disagree with me about.
>> Imagine an insurance company giving you a different quote every time you check on their website

I mean, it's already a well-established practice - maybe not in insurance, but in plenty of other markets. Airlines and ticket booking services do this. E-commerce sites sometimes do this. So it is a weird example indeed.

Making a large profit off of other people’s work, without their permission and without compensating them, is not progress.

I'd like to see them use it to get rid of the plague of counterfeit products (I guess that's arguably a subset of "correcting").
There is no ethical high ground here.

There is only creative output bent towards the artificial framework of capitalism.

One could argue there is some weak ethical underpinning in "In the absence of higher moral values, one should simply adhere to previous agreements and laws..." Except previous agreements and laws give basically no guidance on the topic of "Can I use this data to train a machine to make more data?" Especially if the thusly-created data can't even, itself, be copyrighted. It's a novel use-case unpredicted by the existing copyright framework.
What if the science is disseminated within a closed group? For instance, suppose the classified research is shared with other people with a security clearance. That still wouldn't be science? Or suppose scientists at universities shared their research with scientists at other universities, but not the general public: that wouldn't be science either?

I'm from the future and this is true. There will certainly be AI regulations and licensed AI models and it had already happened with the Shutterstock and O̶p̶e̶n̶AI.com partnership.

Stable Diffusion and the Getty Images lawsuit will end with a settlement and licensing will be the option to go with.
Maybe the answer is to make every individual instance of a copyrighted work in an AI's training set a full breach of copyright, for each monetized/monetizable inference made by the trained AI. Maybe Open AI alone has already racked up quadrillions of dollars in back damages.

I mean, what would go into it is race, and after that, adherence to cultural norms (Christianity, conservatism, cisgender heterosexuality, immigrant status) and then gerrymandering. Even if that isn't what happens on paper, that's what would happen.
Is the Asus G14 in your country? They are suspiciously cheap in the US ($1100 sometimes), have solid specs, and have a GPU for ML stuff (like running LLMs locally for free).

Otherwise, a M-chip MBP is good for the same reason. Just try to get one with more than 16GB of RAM if you can, as that is kinda tight in the long run.
All the words they have experienced up to that point are part of the training set, as well as all the people and things they have seen.

It’s more related to poverty adjacent to wealth. If everyone is poor, nobody feels poor. If poor people are next to rich people, you often get crime and eventually violence.

Honduras is a good example. It was once poor and relatively peaceful. With a few social incidents, like removing farmers from their land and the rise of the drug trade, you have violence. The drug trade displays wealthy narcos to young men whose other choice is to be a poor laborer. The men see that those with money get the girls, can support their families, have status.
