I have a much longer response in mind to this but I would say in short this: having talked to many such people, they perceive an increasing bifurcation between the political/chattering class “consensus” and the popular consensus. Those classes talk a lot about “democracy” and its forms but none of their consensus positions are open to democratic oversight and policy is often decided without democratic input (and sometimes in spite of it), and this is called in a very Orwellian sense “democracy.”

The people who feel this see Chomsky’s manufactured consent as their chief opposition. They’re looking to form a truly popular and organic democratic consensus, which cannot happen overnight.

ChatGPT is a brand that has almost become as powerful as Google is for Alphabet and what Windows is for Microsoft and the 'i' prefix for Apple.

It's gonna be really hard to get people as excited about AI as ChatGPT because you need a similar combo of technical leap + penetration in pop culture, in order to get everybody.

> Challenger was destroyed by an FTS system

No. The shuttle broke up when the overall stack became unstable due to the right hand SRB separating because a strut that attached it to the external tank failed (due to a blowtorch effect from a failed O-ring). The Challenger orbiter ended up 'on top' and broke into several chunks - without involvement of any FTS - because of the aerodynamic stress (one of these chunks was the crew compartment). The SRBs were destroyed by their FTS systems, but this was more than 30 seconds after Challenger broke up. The ET simply disintegrated.

[Edit] added emphasis that the orbiter break-up (and destruction) was not due to any FTS.
>Space Shuttle had a total of five engines (including the Solid Rocket Boosters).

Very minor nitpick, but the Space Shuttle had seven engines: Two SRBs, three SSMEs, and two OMS engines.

The SRBs and SSMEs were used for launch, and the two OMS engines were used in orbit.
This is a handful of people we are talking about. The top algorithimic world is incredibly small.

In short, either they didn't or where unable to create a favorable enough environment for this to flourish.

Usually, the legal rights of an employee are based on the location (city, state or country) that the employee is located in. (For example, if you're an Idaho company with employees in New York City, you need to pay those NYC employees at least the NYC minimum wage of $15/hr.)
Famous Trials
I don't think you'd need a first party server. If it were me architecting this, I'd use a service or microservice for this (for example, possibly hitting GPT-4 API directly from the client with the info you need in the prompt), with non-AI emedded in the game for when that fails, such as in offline use or a service outage or something.

You don't need to be able to run the LLM locally yet in order to benefit from this, nor do you need to have your own robust game server.

It definitely needs to be done thoughtfully to avoid creating plot holes or messing up character personalities, but especially games like Stardew Valley I think you could get some super interesting storylines going. Embed the important characteristics and personality into the prompts, to keep the AI in line, but let it do it's thing.
IMO, any "tech" company that offers free services is an advertising company. Picked up where newspapers left off. And they weren't free.

They mostly can't figure how to get people to pay, or people are unwilling to create a dozen or a hundred payment accounts, a problem that still is unsolved after decades, despite efforts by tech giants to monopolize the payment market.

The chances of any one account's data being hacked are too high, and each new one adds more risk.

> Many employers just use them as an empty threat to manipulate people, because they know few people are going to hire a lawyer over it.

These noncompetes do work well as an empty threat.

Although I suspect the majority of sandwich shop workers or managers aren’t paying any attention to the language in their onboarding paperwork, and are just going through the motions.

I would like to see limits on this, but I’m not sure there’s a way to penalize lawyers for this, because they often are not the ones deciding who to hand these contracts to. Usually businesses have a lawyer draft up a general agreement, and then lazy business management just hands the same one to everyone from the VP to the janitor. That’s not really the lawyer’s doing.
And he probably wouldn’t approve unless there was a specific use case that he thought mandated an exception. Recent international news provide some inspiration.

A few weeks ago, I had spotty service with Bing Chat where it would keep resetting the conversation which I assumed was due to load. In general all these LLM services are in constant flux because they are tuning both the models and UI. They feel like alpha quality products in terms of stability.

Hey, creator here!
Thanks for the feedback. For the first point, I can't reproduce this slowness.
On the third point, and I'm mostly asking for thoughts here: I'm thinking of removing the "false" formats, but I wonder if they come with any upsides?
An LLM could easily answer that question if it was trained to do it. Nothing in its architecture makes it hard to answer, the attention part could easily look up the previous parts of its answer and refer to the fourth word but it doesn't do that.

So it is a good example that the LLM doesn't generalize understanding, it can answer the question in theory but not in practice since it isn't smart enough. A human can easily answer it even though the human never saw such a question before.
No it's a horrible idea, imagine the lights turning on and off as people pass. No!
Yes, the backend for Google Flights, Orbitz, Kayak etc. That seems rather critical.

While it's not clear to me how much of that backend is still in Common Lisp, when Google bought ITA Software it was primarily a Lisp shop and I understand that it largely stayed that way for at least a long time.
> the board determines when we've attained AGI. Again, by AGI we mean a highly autonomous system that outperforms humans at most economically valuable work. Such a system is excluded from IP licenses and other commercial terms with Microsoft, which only apply to pre-AGI technology.

I wonder if this could be at the crux of the fissure; does Ilya see AGI coming soon, and want to pull the rug on Microsoft? Maybe not immediately but perhaps he was flagging it. (Or maybe he thinks GPT-5 clears the bar, which would be quite the claim.)

Yep, you're correct. I was meaning for launch only but I wasn't specific. :)
I think it's a little harsh to claim that the LLM didn't understand words. Sure it's far from perfect, but it mostly gives coherent answers. The AI is instructed to interpret each scenario as deadly, so it will typically do that, even if it doesn't make much sense.

Quant = quantitative analyst
Early papers (e.g. https://inria.hal.science/inria-00555588) use C=Convergent for state-based CRDTs and C=Commutative for op-based CRDTs. Nowadays it is usually C=Conflict-free for all variants (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRDT).

You could add to the confusion by using C=Collaborative. (I personally prefer "collaborative data structures" for the more general concept of data structures that can be edited on multiple devices; CRDT is a mouthful and now also a buzzword.)
This is true of all the situations I’m familiar with. I wonder if the other posters are talking about a different part of finance.
> Space Shuttle didn't have an escape system either

To be pedantic, the early flights had ejector seats for the pilot and commander, and the post-Challenger orbiters had a 'fire-pole' bail-out system. These systems could only be used in a very limited set of circumstances.

This looks like a great idea with a lot of hard work ahead of you.

You mention a few different areas it could work in (education, enterprise, consumers), but really you need to pick one and really focus on it - you will dissipate your focus and energies if you try to serve even two of these markets at the same time. Might be worth picking something far away from languages since Duo and other apps have that sewn up already. It would be hard to compete.

I like the education/school idea but you'd have to make the product free and focus on curricula and really serving those well. Perhaps target it at teachers and make it easier for them to construct lessons.

Need to make sure it targets the device that your markets will be using, which probably means phones rather than desktop or ipad.

Feedback:
1. Password requirements are a little annoying, perhaps loosen those a bit.
2. First examples are way too broad - pick an area, focus and try to execute just for that area, so that people see immediately what it is for (e.g. make your lessons as a teacher) and you have a target customer you can go after.
3. Your examples need a lot more work and polish, I did the launch to moon base alpha - the pictures don't add anything IMO, and I didn't feel like I really learned much because the questions were too fuzzy and the answers were not informative, you need to build in a better feedback loop and probably pick examples which are far more clearcut.
4. There is some very weird/wrong content IMO e.g. use a 'gravitational slingshot' instead of burning fuel - the vast majority of spacecraft burn fuel to change course, including the rare cases where they use a gravitational slingshot.
5. Content is king - I get this is supposed to be some quick examples you threw together but you need to step back and consider what impression this gives of your product - it makes the whole thing seems slipshod and ill-thought out. You need some real, very well thought out content here to make it seem worthwhile. The user should feel like they learning something in your examples.

So it looks like you have the basics here for your goal, but you need to focus on content and make sure you provide good feedback when the user gives a wrong answer as this is the biggest point of friction when learning. Also consider how someone like a teacher would give this to kids and how the kids would react to it - I'd recommend trying to connect with a teacher and get their honest feedback, that sounds like a promising direction even if initially they'll tell you it'll never work, they might give you some good pointers.
He conflated the ADL with western Jewish populations, though, and agreed that Jewish communities as a whole have been spreading anti-white hatred, not just the ADL.

>> Jewish communties have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.

>> I'm deeply disinterested in giving the tiniest shit now about western Jewish populations coming to the disturbing realization that those hordes of minorities that support flooding their country don't exactly like them too much.

>> You want truth said to your face, there it is.

> You have said the actual truth.

> The ADL unjustly attacks the majority of the West, despite the majority of the West supporting the Jewish people and Israel.

First, there are no "tricks". The history of SEO is littered with tricks that eventually became signals for ranking penalty. At this point tricks are for kids. (Reference to US kid's breakfast cereal intentional.)

Don't let the SEOs fool you, the concept of SEO is simple: At the end of the day the algorithm just wants to be human. And, Google doesn't care about any websites, Google cares about its customer. The customer is the person doing the search. That is it. That's the foundation.

Google et al are nothing more thathan matchmakers. A customer comes to them with a need (i.e., search term) and the algorithm wants to maximize that customer's satisfaction and give the best answer(s) possible. Otherwise the customer might not come back (as unhappy customers are known to do).

The algorithm - * at scale* (obviously) - attempts to answer that search query the way a real human would, if a real human could evaluate all the relevant websites and then rank those sites / pages for that query, for that user.

The moral of the story is...SEO is about putting the site in a position that increases Google's confidence that the site can make iits customers happy. Mainly that comes down to qualify content. For example, a fast loading page (a known SEO ranking signal) that delivers shite content is likely not to rank well. Why? Because in general, humans are concerned about content. Again, the algorithm wants to be human.

Yes, there are bunch of things that can be done to appeal to Google's customers, but in general it's quality content that makes real humans happy.

Finally, SEOs are fond of selling SEO as a panacea. It's not. In competitive markets for competitive keywords the SERP slots might be spoke for. Sure maybe after years you can work your way up the SERP list on to page 1, but at want cost? Can you wait that long? Maybe there are better more effective marketing choices? (Hint: Often there are.)
> The main issue of such a license is that you can't fork the project when they go in a direction that you don't like.

As long as it's not a Competing Use, yes, you can [0]. I don't get why so many people think you can't fork a project that uses BUSL, SSPL, ELv2, and now FSL. Just like any other OSS licenses, you can fork. And you just like any other OSS fork, you can't relicense.

It's obvious people don't actually read the license.

To musically trained people, this is so weird. From the page:

"Imagine singing a melody to create a horn line, transforming chords from a MIDI keyboard into a realistic vocal choir, or adding an instrumental accompaniment to a vocal track."

This is what composers do! It's not hard, it requires a journeyman level of skill and training. I guess it will change how non-musicians create really bad music though?

I'm not saying it's not a game changer - the crappy library music world is running on borrowed time. But positioning this as revolutionizing music production is just bizarre. It's not solving the problems that one faces trying to write good music - it's just making the simplest steps faster. And only significantly faster for the untrained.

It depends on the definition of plenty. At the peak in 1965 NASA/Apollo funding was 5% of government budget. That would be hundreds of billions today.
Oh no, definitely—I’m beyond reading the tea leaves here. It could be the other way around: Sam & Greg were asked, refused, and didn't tell the board that asked, but they deemed "safe" meant sending people with guns to an OpenAI user asking certain questions.

Either way, someone smart and ambitious, described as “a smooth operator,” probably wouldn’t lie to his board unless he signed a document telling him to. At least, that’s worth considering.

> Sometimes I feel like corporations do things just because their lawyers are cargo culting and adding clauses because everyone else does rather than some logical reason.

Not sure so much on the cargo culting aspect, but in essence, I am convinced that this phenomenon is effectively true.

If corporations were run entirely by lawyers, the likelihood that any corporation would take risks that would lead to innovation would be approaching zero. Of course, corporations without laws would run amok, but that's beside the point. I've worked at companies that were absolutely afraid to do anything that the legal department found troublesome, holding them back from risks that might have been worthwhile and wouldn't have been apocalyptic had anything gone wrong. It's a shame to see that happen, and I suppose that's why the current paradigm needs to keep generating startups in order to drive innovation. Though we really haven't been seeing much innovation as of late.

There may be some cargo culting of noncompetes, but it seems more likely that noncompetes are inherently in the best interest of the business from the point of view of the lawyers, and businesses see noncompetes as a sort of moat against competition. Both are fairly reasonable perspectives, though neither is necessarily true in reality, which is why businesses don't necessarily have to listen to their legal team on every decision.
