I'll admit that I am by no means an expert and might be completely wrong, but yes, I believe that model training cannot fully solve driverless vehicles.

All models that we train today have edge cases where the model produces wildly inaccurate output. As far as I'm aware, nobody yet has managed to squeeze this problem out.

ChatGPT is still an overall useful tool with the occasional hallucination. Those types of edge cases in software driving a car are unacceptable.

let's create a hypothetical to explore : you create an app that helps victims of crime to find support structures in which to help them with whatever situations arise. The app gains momentum, and becomes successful.

Is it more ethical to avoid a platform based on principals if it then excludes a vulnerable audience from participating that you seek to empower?

Of all the antagonisms for young adults, I would say an easy method to buy cryptocurrency and hedge against inflation is not one of them. The much more significant antagonist for financially vulnerable young adults is the Federal Reserve and its inflationary monetary policy that has priced many out of ever owning a home. Furthermore, the elite's industrial policy of offshoring manufacturing to China, deindustrializing the West, and high energy prices has done much more harm to the middle and working class than the volatility of crypto.

If they don't think it's achievable, the smart move at this point is to shrink the team down to just a few people and claim to still be working on it, while pushing incremental improvements every few months while telling customers and investors that 'its coming'.

How to Use Gamma AI: Revolutionize Your Presentations with Gamma AI
There is also the distinct possibility that the wording is literally true in sense they don't train their model on your data ("train" can be interpreted as having a very specific meaning...), but they nevertheless also undertake some sort of monitoring of the outputs a model produces (which could obviously entail privacy leaks, especially if it's using RAG on your personal files).

Seems quite sensible for people not to trust that they fully understand the small print, since (i) they probably don't and (ii) the one thing most AI companies have made clear is that they think they should be able to use whatever material they like however they like, regardless of whether the creator of that material gives them their blessing or not.

> The most common sites of melanoma are chest and back in men and legs in women

> The most common chemical sunscreen ingredients cause cancer themselves

Both of these statements are out-of-date.

Recent studies show two different histological subtypes of melanoma for young adults vs older adults, each following a different common mode of presentation [1]. Melanoma in younger adults tends to present on the long limbs and is thought to have different contributing factors.

Also "common chemical sunscreen ingredients cause cancer" is a common FUD trope. Sunscreen reduces cancer mortality, full stop. Each person's circumstances vary based on their daily habits, geography, and personal/familial history.

I should clarify that I meant "webmail" in general, and meant to answer the spirit of the broader question about why people prefer thick clients over web clients. Most web clients aren't great offline, but a "YMMV" does seem necessary here.

With that said, while I don't know much about the particulars of the Proton web client and how it handles offline access, I'd still prefer a client that treats all mail the same way, regardless of provider, and that I can manage locally/migrate to a new computer/back up to my own NAS, etc.

Great comment! Fascism as it was understood in the early 20's was so complex and evolving. Now we talk about it like it is a system with rules. As your comment shows you know that many early Italian fascists were techno-utopians, socialists, nationalists, industrialists, etc. And it did not end well.

I think the lesson for a modern western person is that a movement can seem kind of vague while it is happening, and therefore be idealized by people from very different points of view. But beware because the movement may crystalize into something really terrible.

Anecdotally (not being an active reddit user, just someone who occasionally searches for "blah blah reddit"): I haven't seen good new results in quite a while. It used to be the case that anything you searched for would have a recent thread discussing just that, with a lot of active opinions. Now it seems like a graveyard, all messages from 10+ months ago.

The packaging AMD uses for their desktop processors is cheaper, and much worse in terms of performance and power efficiency: moving data between chiplets is too expensive to work well for a laptop processor. (That hasn't stopped them from shipping the latest version in a BGA package for use in massive gaming laptops to compete against Intel's desktop-silicon-in-laptop-package parts, but the idle power draw still sucks.)
But also remember the other invisible graveyard - the people who aren't dead because they received ineffective treatments.

I do agree that drug approval processes need to consider the negative cost of delay, but in this specific case, from further in the article we see:

> Moderna is currently building a dedicated facility in Massachusetts to produce the vaccine at commercial scale, which it hopes to finish sometime next year.

> "We need to make sure that we have that near completion before we could even contemplate asking for approval," Hoge said.

And the reason for this is that you typically need to submit detailed manufacturing information as part of your new drug approval process. This allows the FDA assess how likely the drug you actually sell will provide the same benefits as those in the trial, as well as make sure you don't like... dunno forget to serialize stuff and ship out contaminated product.
You can see a technical analysis here https://twitter.com/Neodyme/status/1735337711555285261 , this is a JS repo for app integrations for Ledger and really has nothing specifically to do with Ethereum itself or any hardware. There are several wallets solutions that make transactions easier and more secure for people using Eth, but Eth is a protocol running a network and doesn't concern itself with the app layer, and rightly so.
There are definitely AI-narrated ebooks on the market right now. There is definitely an initial ick factor, but if you can make it through the first ten minutes you will acclimate to it.

> A decent proportion of why the M* CPUs are so efficient is that the OS is built around them, with tasks being appropriately scheduled to CPU cores based on developer hints

It helps, but its far from the whole story. Asahi Linux developers have reported exceptionally good battery life on Linux. IIRC they were getting around 7 hours before the GPU driver was implemented and it was continually burning ~60% all-core CPU just to render.

I believe the hardware itself (and the firmware) handles a lot of the power management. Aside from which, Apple's CPU cores do seem to be straight up more power efficient than anybody else's.

Arguments are for the onlooker, not the participants.
It's useful to do learning on small toy problems for ease of debugging and speed of training, so if you want to learn how to apply a powerful technique, you're pretty much inevitably going to start learning it on something for which it's absolutely ineffective overkill. E.g. a common start for learning neural nets is a task like XOR which can be solved with literally a single machine instruction instead of training a ML model for it.

But also there are many tasks for which naive Bayes works, but a NN solution can be much more accurate if you're okay with it being also much more compute-intensive. E.g. things like sentiment analysis or simple spam filters are often used as a demonstration of naive Bayes, but you can do much better with more powerful models.

The entire basis of the current generation of AI is in stolen materials. Stolen writing, stolen art, stolen music, all of it taken because it was "publicly available" meaning "there was nothing in existing law that said we couldn't take it for training a learning model." Now they've done the same with Dropbox contents.

AI is very cool technology. The incredible overstepping of any and all ethics with regard to getting training data, just all of the data from any source as fast as possible right now, in this mad dash to create it at all costs is not and should mandate a complete restart on behalf of the people behind it. For this one, and for so many other ethical lapses on the part of OpenAI, the models as they exist are tainted beyond any ethical use as far as I'm concerned.
