The number of fatalities and injuries seems minuscule because it's normalised over distance traveled.

This makes sense, because air travel is the only way to make voyages over this distance. But it also doesn't make sense for the same reason -- it's stupid to compare a 6000 mile holiday flight with a 6000 mile holiday road trip, because people don't routinely make those. You're still more likely to get injured on an eight hour car ride than on an eight hour flight, but the difference isn't a factor 600.

In much the same way, air travel is also arguably moderately efficient in terms of CO2 per mile, except that it's also a super easy way -- in fact, practically the only way -- to accrue tens of thousands of miles every year, so the efficiency is kind of irrelevant.
I suppose multi-prompt conversations are just a variation on few-shot prompting. I do agree though, that they don't play a big enough role in eval, but also in the heads of many people. So many capable engineers I now nope out of GPT because the first answer isn't satisfactory, instead of continuing the dialog.
Sounds similar to the lawsuits against Google by the newspapers of the world for them providing excerpts of their articles on the search result page or so.

So essentially you can ask chatgpt to fetch and summarize a paywalled article, because openai has subscribed their crawler?

This is an awesome collection, thank you! For lots of the conferences there are different "tracks", and each one has "the best paper award". For example, at NeurIPS 2023, there was a "main track", and also a "dataset and benchmarks track". It could also be interesting to include runner-ups since the voting margins are paper-thin.

There's a sight gag based on in Coming to America.
That’s because of publishing, mostly. Individual creators very often sign over some or all control of their work to companies in order to make more money.
> “the economy” can usually just be translated to mean “rich people’s yacht money”

Mississippi, one of the poorest US states and one widely panned for having "backwards" economic policies (meaning low levels of redistributive taxation), has a higher median household income at nearly $53k[0] than Germany, the country with the best economy in egalitarian Europe, at roughly $46k[1]. So it's definitely not just yacht-owners that are the beneficiaries of economic growth in a laissez-faire capitalistic country.

I know people who are already at the "if driving takes less than 8 hours, I'd rather drive than fly" level. Every additional inconvenience (or psychological impediment) added to the safest mode of long-distance travel has a risk of decreasing overall safety.

It's not particularly relevant to an international flight into Japan, but the extent to which increasing annoyance/instilling fear of airline passengers causing people to drive instead must be weighed against the small safety benefit resulting from a policy of telling passengers "we think this phase of flight contains the most highly concentrated risk, so for the next 15 minutes, please put away all of your distractions, prepare for a possible crash, and try not to think about the fact that we could turn this aircraft into a tumbling, burning ball of wreckage at any moment."

Something similar was the primary justification to support the continuation of "infant in arms" travel by passengers under the age of 2, with an expected 60:1 ratio of lives that would be lost if infants were required to occupy ticketed seats vs being carried in arms.

> ... So I would expect to find serious bugs when doing this.

That's actually a good point hmmm (not in case of this specific assembler, which seems to be quite robust and well-written), and even if there would be serious memory corruption errors lurking, they would be contained because the assemblers runs in a WASM VM.

For projects that are still maintained, a "moving standard" isn't that much of a problem, after all we've been conditioned that every new compiler update adds new warnings which "break" existing code ;)

...there is a certain value in taking a "finished/frozen" project and integrate that into a new project without requiring code changes though.

I'm sure there must be a good middle-ground for C, where obviously bad and outdated language features (starting with leftovers from the K&R era) can be removed without causing too much breakage even on most old code ... but then, why keep 'inline' ;P

There was that couple in New England where the husband figured out there was a lottery ticket that was nearly guaranteed to return a slight profit if nobody won the previous couple of weeks.

Several articles were written about them, I think I saw an ad for a movie even, but it took both of them working very long days to pull this off, including standing in convenience stores for hours at a time pushing buttons. I think they ended up making less than $100 an hour between them.

I think the other thing people miss is the impact of our existing infrastructure on the speed at which these new technologies can be deployed.

Society had a lot of time to get used to the printing press, the advances of the Industrial Revolution and the internet. This is because the knowledge had to spread, and it's also because a ton of equipment had to be manufactured and/or shipped all over the world. We had to make printing presses, design and build factories, and get a critical mass of people internet-capable computers.

AI is fundamentally different, in that the knowledge of AI can spread instantly because of the internet and because the vast majority of the world already has access to all of the hardware they need to access the most powerful AI models.

Soon we'll have humanoid robots coming, and while they obviously have to be built, we are much more capable now than we were 50 years ago at building giant factories. We also have an efficient system of capital allocation that means that as soon as someone demonstrates a generally useful humanoid robot and only needs to scale production, they'll have access to basically infinite investor money.

Its useful for writing generic code/template/boilerplate, then customizing it by inserting your own code.
For something you already know better, there isn't a magic prompt to express it, since the code
is not generic enough for LLM to understand as a prompt.

Its best usecase is when you're not a domain expert, need quickly to run some unknown API/library
inside your program inserting code like "write a function for loading X with Y in language Z"
when you barely have an idea what is X,Y,Z.
Its possible in theory to break-down everything to "write me a function for N" but
the quality of such functions is not worth the prompting in most situations and you better ask it
to explain how to write a function X,Y,Z step-by-step.
You're getting downvoted because armrests only act as 'hostile architecture' when they stop people lying down to sleep, and the beggars on the tube are visibly not sleeping.

The beggars are constantly moving, and only ask for money on trains that are in motion, in order to evade the staff. Those that want to stay in one place set up just outside the station entrance.

Furthermore, a tube platform is a poor place to sleep, not only because the staff will move you on and the trains are really noisy, but mostly because the tube is closed at night.

I do agree that some-human was wrong to say "People without a home do not have access to the platforms" though, as you're right that it's possible to access the platforms without paying. But some-human was right in the broader context of the thread - whether the armrests constitute hostile architecture - that we do not see rough sleepers sleeping on tube platforms.

It doesn't have to be explicit and on purpose.

It can be something the algorithms slowly crawl towards, and someone working in them might notice.

On the other hand, it's been well known for a while the effect of outrage in online engagement. Trolling and fake news became political weapons to recruit people, making them emotional, invested, it has shaped belief and behavior. There's people who get paid to spread this kind of content with this goal, for more sinister purposes than ad revenue.

The negative emotion of anger is exploited to get people to stay engaged online.

So this is not new, at all. Why would it be limited to anger? For what reason would FB/Google refrain from doing it? This is what I'm curious about, do you honestly think it's not possible to use the algorithms and AI for such a task? If not, surely you admit it would be possible soon? And if so, would they abstain for moral reasons?

> If a human kept around a briefcase of NYT articles they didn't pay for and let you view them for a fee I think everybody would agree that's copyright infringement.

Except that's not what it's doing. Show me how I can get ChatGPT to show me the full text of a NYT article.
I'd clarify that in my example the screening would be of the potentially random output of a model... just one that was only trained by watching a specific blockbuster movie and thus extremely likely to just reproduce the source material. My example is obviously an extreme but it gets at the core of the NYT case here in the states... I think it's a bad thing if we allow models to output data nearly indistinguishable from copyrighted data it was trained on.

W.r.t to the NYT case - It's my opinion that it's completely reasonable to use a corpus of vetted english literature like the NYT as a way to train your model to comprehend language - but if the model also begins to echo the contents of those articles then that may be a serious breech of the NYT's right's to monetize their work.
Yes, assuming you always keep eating 500cal over your burn rate. Your body will adapt over time and try to burn more calories to compensate for some of that, some purely just by having additional fat, but you would continue to gain weight.

A 500cal surplus is quite a bit though, so if you set that you’d probably gain 20 lbs over time assuming you kept everything else equal.
I’m noticing most frameworks moving towards being PHP from end and backend. Smart templates with HTMX.
I'm not a lawmaker, but it's probably pretty hard to write a law that effectively distinguishes between "doing X" and "doing X at scale". As another commenter mentions, if you target the means of doing it (human doing X vs. machine doing X), someone will just use Mechanical Turk or something to hire 10,000 humans to do X.

If telling AI to study Spiderman and then output 10 pictures of Spiderman is illegal, how is that different from hiring 10,000 artists to study Spiderman, having them each do a drawing, and then hiring 100 talent judges to pick the top 10?
> "zip up copyrighted images using a nn" is trek level technobabble.

Look up 'overfitting', neural-network based compression, etc. or that paper that used zip compression as a neural-network basically. Farthest thing possible from being 'technobabble' once you understand how inextricably linked compression and 'understanding' is.
My gut tells me this would also work for news. A lot of evidence to support the opposite of what was reported tends to appear 1-2 years later but that never gets reported on as much as the original story.

How can it possibly fall on you to verify your works?

The only possible way to do this is for companies to provide a list of all of their sources and for me to then automate verification and hope it works!

The real answer is that I should be able to control whether my information is used to train models or not, because we already know that models spit out verbatim results with generic queries and there’s just no way for a user to otherwise check this.
> nearly no modification

How much modification is enough modification? The courts can wrangle with that endlessly.
As teenagers we were pirates sailing the high digital seas, our rooms filled with stashes of 5"1/4 and 3"1/2 floppies. Buying neither shareware (btw as teenagers in Europe we had no idea how we'd even buy sharewares) nor commercial games (these you'd just go to a shop and buy them).

However one day, when Ultima V came out, I decided I'd buy it: I had been playing Ultima III and Ultima IV so much, it seemed right to buy Ultima V. But I was not on the C64/C128 anymore, I had an Amiga. So I broke my wallet and bought the Amiga version of Ultima V.

Turns out: the port of Ultima V to the Amiga was particularly bad.

So I borrowed my neighbour's C128D (nice machine: my C128 had a little issue) and... Played a pirated version of Ultima V for the C64 (I'd use the C128 in C64 mode), which was way better than its Amiga port.

Aye.

P.S: semi-seriously though: I remember it was hard to buy US shareware from Europe in the eighties/nineties. My parents didn't even have credit cards back then (it was all still "cheques" and lots of tiny local currencies).
