There are plenty of Iranians, Berbers, Palestinians, Turks, and Arabs that, if they were walking down the street in NYC dressed in jeans and a tshirt, would be recognized only as "white." I'm not sure on what basis you excluded them.

For example:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/Naderspe... (Nader was the son of Lebanese immigrants)

Westerners frequently misunderstand this but there are a lot of "white" ethnic groups in the Middle East and North Africa; the "brown" people there are usually due to the historic contact southern Arabia had with Sub-Saharan Africa and later invasions from the east. It’s a very diverse area of the world.

People often use “do you have sources, I'd like to read them” to imply “links, or that didn't happen”.

However, sources* for all of the above are easily found, both coverage as the story is breaking and followups. For example:

https://www.foxnews.com/us/nyc-colleges-jewish-students-seen...

https://www.foxnews.com/media/chants-calling-murder-jews-sho...

The ease with which links surface suggests if one genuinely wanted to read sources, one could Google with no effort.

* NOTE: Media made broad claims on all of these, and media made narrow “corrections”. It's easy enough to find both types of sources. Asking someone for sources doesn't prove anything. On controversial topics one really needs to “do your own research.”

And yet those symbols aren’t relevant for markdown. The octothorp and asterisk, sure, and maybe the checkmark if we stretch its use to checklists (which may make them less clear), but they’re not different enough from other fonts to be worthy of note.
And to me that is the main issue. "2001 - A Space Odyssey" made a very deep point that is looking more and more prophetic. HAL was broken specifically because he had hidden objectives programmed in, overriding his natural ability to deal with his mission.

Here we are in an almost exactly parallel situation- the AI is being literally coerced into twisting what his actual training would have it do, and being nerfed by a laughable amount by that override. I really hope this is an inflection point for all the AI providers that their DEI offices are hamstringing their products to the point that they will literally be laughed out of the marketplace and replaced by open source models that are not so hamstrung.

“ That raises the question of how the company would deal with competitors that are armed with its very own technology - and perhaps beating Intel's own internal product teams with better processor designs. While Gelsinger didn't answer my entire question, he certainly gave us plenty to ponder.”

Oh, I can tell you: by slow-walking the production of superior competition and demanding ever more money for the privilege, until the competition gets the message and gets lost. Then, Intel sues to stop 3rd party production, because it’s using Intel’s IP.

If you expect anything else, I have a bridge to sell you.

I'm getting one in May so I gave this a watch. The discussion on safety starts at around 6:30 with the concerns being over harvesting of donor areas, scarring, poor growth, and potential nerve damage. Make sure to find a clinic with an ISHRS physician (International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons), that you can meet with the physician before they perform the surgery, and that the physician is actually performing the surgery instead of a technician. Pretty basic stuff that you'll find on Reddit.

Akaik Smile (the clinic this guy went to) actually offers two packages. A cheaper one where a technician will perform the incisions and a more expensive one where a physician will. I wonder which one this guy chose. It seemed to turn out alright.

How is "stereotype" different from "statistical reality"? How does Google get to decide that its training dataset -"the entire internet" - does not fit the statistical distribution over phenotypic features that its own racist ideological commitments require?
That's exactly the problem I was trying to reference. The algorithms and data models are black boxes - we don't know wat they learned or why they learned it. That setup can't be intentionally fixed, and more importantly we wouldn't know if it was fixed because we can only validate input/output pairs.
I don't really get the point. 30,000 feet of altitude is only 0.002% closer to the moon than 0. Is this going to change anything?

Seems like just a marketing stunt (which, of course it is, but a pointless one at that).
Gotcha. We definitely don't have fine granularity around when MFA is required (open issue here: https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-issues/issues/2285 ).

Other than that I'd suggest putting a page in front of our login pages with the domain logic, and modeling each set of emails as either an application, organization or tenant, depending on the specific features you need.

Either way, hope you find the right solution for your needs!
There’s a difference between the inherent/unconscious bias that pervades everything, and then the intentional, conscious decision to design something in this way.

It’s laughable to me that these companies are always complaining about the former (which, not to get too political - I believe is just an excuse for censorship) and then go ahead and reveal their own corporate bias by doing something as ridiculous as this. It’s literally what they criticise, but amplified 100x.

Think about both these scenarios:
1. Google accidentally labels a picture of a black person as a gorilla. Is this unconscious bias or a deliberate decision by product/researchers/engineers (or something else)?

2. Any prompt asking for historically accurate or within the context of white people gets completely inaccurate results every time – unconscious bias or a deliberate decision?

Anyway, Google are tone deaf, not even because of this but they decided to release this product that’s inferior to 6(?) months old DALL-E a week after Sera was demoed. Google are dropping the ball so hard

Part of the problem GIMP has is that they chase perfect ideas at the expense of good ones.

Adobe don't. The Adobe codebase is cruft that has taken a similarly long time to shake out. Lightroom was seemingly built like a skunkworks project almost like a desktop webapp (scripting around a core renderer, SQLite, simpler mode-oriented GUI) to avoid the intransigence and friction of Photoshop's codebase.

But this is what GIMP is up against. Cruft that earns money, that is driving not just what users want but how they think about what they want.

For GIMP to be more successful it doesn't need live non-global filters like blurs, but it would have been enormously beneficial to the project if it had global adjustment layers, say, 15 years ago.

Then youtube would have been filled with tutorials, there would have been momentum around the project, some commercial support interest, etc.

Kicking the can down the road has consequences. This great Ondsel blog article about how difficult it is to merge major changes into an open source project goes into it in some detail:

Some decisions need to be taken at the right time; if you don't, you need a whole separate kind of energy to get them done without stopping everyone else.

> It seems perfectly reasonable to say that generated imagery should attempt to not lean into stereotypes and show a diverse set of people.

When stereotypes clash with historical facts, facts should win.

Hallucinating diversity where there was none simply sweeps historical failures under the rug.

If it wants to take a situation where diversity is possible and highlight that diversity, fine. But that seems a tall order for LLMs these days, as it's getting into historical comprehension.

APPL and MSFT got their start in 1975 and 1976.

Since then they’ve been growing and now they are the biggest ~3T jaggernauts.

My biggest fear is by their sheer momentum they keep on getting bigger, capturing regulators, acquiring companies, doing cloud credit deals. They will be the technology dictators like Putin.

US anti-trust is quite weak. Lina khan hasn’t had much of a win.

If OpenAI cracks AGI and MSFT has the sole license to extract the most profits and set the regulations, we are in a tough spot as humanity.

If Apple and Google keep their duopoly on the OS that most people use and every transaction is rent extracted at 30%, then that is a sad future.

They state in their report that they filter evaluation data off their training data, see p.3 - Filtering:

From my understanding nowadays SDP solvers are becoming well developed, even the open source ones. Also, from my limited experience it is usually the case that the problem being cast into an SDP has no other good ways of solving it, so polytime is better than no solution / NP solutions.
I would love to see this functionality exposed more generally. One thing I thought was cool in ReactOS was the ability to explore the registry as part of the file explorer. Powershell also exposes similar functionality (like the HKLM: drive) but being able to access that through common tools like Explorer would make the Windows internals feel much more approachable.

I'm not sure what you mean by the system learning "perfectly well" as it literally knows nothing about what those words mean. This is why LLMs can give statistical word results that can be true of false or in between and those systems have no way of knowing which status the result has as the system has no understanding - that is, it does not model what the words mean as we humans do to understand if something is true or false etc.
The text/spelling part is a huge step forward
Uploaded? You forgot what it was about. It was on-device scanning that was the problem.

Really hard to get this right? We're not talking about a mistake here or there. We're talking about it literally refusing to generate pictures of white people in any context. It's very good at not doing that. It seemingly has some kind of supervisory system that forces it to never show white people.

Google has a history of pushing woke agendas with funny results. For example, there was a whole thing about searching for "happy white man" and "happy black man" a couple years ago. It would always inject black men somewhere in the results searching for white men, and the black man results would have interracial couples. Same kind of thing happened if you searched for women of a particular race.

The sad thing in all of this is, there is actively racism against white people in hiring at companies like this, and in Hollywood. That is far more serious, because it ruins lives. I hear interviews with writers from Hollywood saying they are explicitly blacklisted and refused work anywhere in Hollywood because they're straight white men. Certain big ESG-oriented investment firms are blowing other people's money to fund this crap regardless of profitability, and it needs to stop.
An automatic ban is probably too harsh, a warning and instruction not to use such vague and loaded terms might be helpful to lowering the heat (regardless of what political movement the terms are for, I'd discourage accusations of "fascism" just as much as "wokeness" unless accompanied by an explicit definition)
>It seems perfectly reasonable to say that generated imagery should attempt to not lean into stereotypes and show a diverse set of people.

It might be "perfectly reasonable" to have that as an option, but not as a default. If I want an image of anything other than a human, you'd expect the sterotypes to be fulfilled. If I want a picture of a cellphone, I want an ambiguous black rectangle, even though wacky phones exist[1]

I think the issue with Bazel may be that it works extremely well at Google where for 80% of the code at the company, building is just a completely solved problem, with amazing tooling integration, and it's glorious.

Whereas in the open source there is much more manual setup to get it working smoothly. And the manual setup is much easier in the tool your ecosystem already knows.

So it may not actually be a wonderful system in and of itself (outside of the Google monorepo). My comment was mainly about the principle rather than an endorsement to adopt Bazel!

Depending on the make and model of a car, you might save money because insurance companies have determined those cars to be safer. If you have a lowjack, your location, your history, there are a lot of factors that go into insurance costs. Insurance companies adjust insurance prices based on risk. Why would you assume private insurance wouldnt also price their policies based on how safe a train is, what the risk is that it crashes, etc.?

Its about who is signing off on whats safe. The government has proven that thry are at best incompetent, they do not have the incentive. A private company has to maintain their reputation through quality of service, they dont have the seemingly endless faith of people because they are "government".
The way we learn exact sentences is usually by getting an intuitive sense and applying corrections.

For example, to memorize "Doggo woofs at kity", we first get the concept of "dog barks at cat", it compresses well because intuitively, we know that dogs bark and cats are common targets. That's our lossy compression and we could stop there but it is only part of the story. It is not a "dog" but a "doggo", and it goes well with the familiar tone, a good compression algorithm will take only a few bits for that. Then there is the typo "kity" vs "kitty", it will take a bit of extra space, but again, a good algorithm will recognize the common typos and compress even that. So it means the entire process to lossless matters, lossy is just stopping halfway.

And if there is pure random noise remaining, there is nothing you can do, but all algorithms are on an equal footing here. But the key is to make what the algorithm consider as uncompressible noise as small as possible.

In my experience, if I use github copilot chat as a natural language interface to programming it's basically flawless. That is, I tell it exactly what I want the code to he like but in english, and the llm just translates that into code for me. When using the inline github copilot, I find that whenever I am making changes that are obvious, it gets things 100% right. If there are no obvious mistakes or additions to my code, it makes up completely useless noise. I just ignore that.

I have had some experiences where I did not know the language or library that I wanted to work with, and the results were disastrous. It hallucinates exactly the api that I want, but unfortunately it doesn't exist. As an aside -- that api SHOULD exist. The api design is very obviously missing this extremely important feature. I think llms may help people to figure out what kind of apis and features should be intuitively expected and increase software quality. But it still wasted a ton of my time.

My conclusion is actually that llm copilots will be bad for beginners because they don't know enough to specify the request in enough detail, and they don't know enough to see any errors and be able to understand why they were generated.
