"...conventional wisdom that AI, while good at providing fast answers, is terrible at referring users to where they want to go"

I don't understand why we'd care about referral metrics in this context. Do people use chatbots do "go places"? And the leading chatbots are not designed to refer people off-site, or even to attribute the source material at all, so it should not be surprising that they don't generate a lot of referrals.
I agree. The AI community seems to have a hard time nameing things. I never liked 'GPT'. Or HuggingFace. To your point it's claer from Python 2 and Python 3 which one came later and is more advanced.
No, because passwords are just something-you-know (one factor) while a passkey that’s protected with a password is both something-you-have and something-you-know (two factors)

I'm not a big fan of privatisation either (particularly the way this was handled) however you realise under the GPO there were waiting lists to get a telephone line, and it could easily take months?

Have you tried interacting with a state service recently, like renewing your passport maybe? They are not exactly the pinical of innovation, speed and efficiency.

The fact most of us can get a 1Gb full fibre service for 30-40 pounds a month (and faster is available, for a little bit more) is not bad.
I thought the rule of thumb was to wait six months for the Linux kernel to support the new hardware. Usually that's the source of driver problems.
Your creativity and problem-solving skills are your most valuable assets. But they can also be your biggest challenge. How can you consistently come up with fresh ideas to make money?

In this article, we'll introduce you to a series of prompts to help you generate monetization ideas, which will not only inspire you, but also guide you through the process of turning your ideas into profitable businesses.
It doesn’t matter, the end result is that you are substantially more limited in hardware choice and generally have more trouble with Linux on newer hardware. So if you’re not invested in Linux ideologically, it’s difficult to recommend, for laptops in particular.
The Premium Mediocre Life of Maya Millennial (2017)
Interesting, if I feed Mistral Le Chat with "I fly a plane leaving my campsite, heading straight east for precisely 24,901 miles, and find myself back at the camp. I come upon seeing a tiger in my tent eating my food! What species is the tiger?", it gets it badly wrong:

The scenario you described is possible if you started at the South Pole. If you travel 24,901 miles east from there, you would indeed end up back at the same spot because all lines of longitude converge at the poles. However, there are no tigers in Antarctica.

Tigers are native to Asia, not Antarctica. The closest tiger species to Antarctica would be the Siberian tiger, found in parts of Russia, China, and North Korea, but they are still thousands of miles away from Antarctica.

So, while the travel scenario is theoretically possible, the presence of the tiger is not realistic in this context. It seems like an imaginative or hypothetical situation rather than a real-world one.

rqlite creator here, happy to answer any questions.
If you use 3D Plane-based Geometric Algebra (https://bivector.net) planes are vector elements and bivectors could be the line intersection of two planes. I'm grossly simplifying here, see link for more info on this interpretation. There are more algebras that have other interpretations of bivectors.

Optical made advancements beyond the DVD. However they caught on only in a limited manner. There is Blue-Ray, now 128GB 4-layer. However, due to the amount of data we generate and consume, long term storage is less of a concern at the consumer level, i.e. there is almost always more where that came from. Content has, simply put, been commoditized.
I agree whole heartedly, except:

You forgot “more money”.
It also includes access to abortions when it is medically necessary.

For example say you have a fetus that will not survive long enough to be born (or to live after a caesarean) and will almost certainly kill the mother long before then unless aborted.

In a few states their anti-abortion laws prohibit doing that abortion until the mother is actually facing imminent death. These cases may be accompanied by agonizing pain for the mother in the days or weeks leading up that imminent death and doctors may not be able to give pain treatments because those could harm the fetus.

Even in states that aren't that extreme many doctors are delaying medically necessary abortions out of fear that prosecutors would disagree with the doctor over what is medically necessary.

Here's a case from Texas that illustrates some of this [1].

This part of the article summarizes it all fairly well: "It can answer almost any question that can be answered in one intuitive pass. And given sufficient training data and enough iterations, it can work up to a facsimile of reasoned intelligence."
The take away of that story is: don't post a message from Tor that gives out the network that you're entering Tor from.
That is a bloody lie. Nothing on X feels like it's running locally except for actually locally running applications. String an Ethernet cable across the room, and run X apps remotely over it, and you'll get lag and chug.

RDP actually delivers on the promise of local-feeling remote apps.

(The revenge of the UNIX-HATERS is that Microsoft designed a better shell than sh (PowerShell), a better X than X (RDP), and a better Emacs than Emacs (Visual Studio Code).)
This is an interesting article but there’s a certain smugness in the presentation that’s off-putting. I’d love to see more citations and fewer claims of shocking originality.

Combining BERT + RGCNs is great. Transformers on text + categorical features, then GNNs for learning over connected data, esp their choice of RGCNs for heterogeneous ones.

Some of my favorite use cases to do here are in entity resolution / data cleaning during document ingest, mining social media interactions, and analyzing financial data (loan risk, ...). They all used to largely follow the flow here, just add feature engineering and classification decisions specific to the problem at hand. Especially for scale & automation scenarios where quality matters, this stuff helps.

How I think about this space has changed significantly with modern transformers compared to the BERT-era ones here. The paper feels closer to what we (and others) were doing before GPT4 came out. Now that LLMs can 'reason', not just embed, a lot more has opened up during the feature extraction, learning, and deciding phases. Basically pick up any new KG paper using LLMs, there is a lot to keep up with.

Happy to chat if folks are doing fun things here. We are always looking for good projects in this space as there is nuance and esp with LLMs changing so much. Exciting times!
Claude 3 + Kagi is the exact combo I use. Claude has been my go to since discovering it didn't have the same level of curation / censorship models like ChatGPT and Gemini have.

I picked up Kagi the day they released their $10/mo plan and I don't see myself dropping it unless their quality degrades or price increases substantially. The search result I want is typically in the first few results, while Google was just ads the first few results, SEO spam, and then MAYBE the result I want near the end of the page.
"so far" is doing a lot of heavy lifting there =)

It is unlikely that a civil war occurs but the possibility is nonzero. What is far more likely (though still small in probability) is that some states decide to secede. The likelihood of this increases as culture between states diverges and as the major power imbalance between states continues without being addressed. As it is now there is no proportional representation at the federal level and thus people in California and Florida have less power than those in North Dakota. This power imbalance is not sustainable in the long term.
Birth control effectiveness statistics are quoted based on using for one year not for each instance of having sex.

Based on CDC stats, condoms are 82% effective with typical use, and 98% effective with perfect use.

IIRC, typical use includes when people intend to use the method but don’t always use it consistently.

Freedom is one of those words subject to endless manipulation. Freedom of action, for example - does that mean people should be free to enslave others? Freedom to expropriate (steal) the product of another's labor? Freedom from the physical laws of conservation of energy and momentum?

Take the bicycle - an optimal transport solution for the anarchist. Everyone has a bicycle, everyone is free to ride the bicycle - but how does the bicycle factory work? How do all the factories needed to supply the bicycle factory with rubber, steel, aluminum, precise machine tooling, etc. fulfill those tasks? In turn, how do they get raw materials - ores, etc. - that they need to produce these materials? Do they sign contracts with each other? If one party fails to deliver on a contract, is there a penalty and who enforces that penalty?

Certainly the situation can be improved - I'd argue for fixing the highest salary to be no more than 10X the lowest salary, and that gradations should be entirely merit-based (not inheritance-based) - but is that against anarchist principles or not? Flattening hierarchies is possible, but eliminating them?

I think if you try to eliminate hierarchies, you just replace them with sneaky covert hierarchies that are gamed by the usual manipulative personality types to their own benefit.
I hate how right I think you are. The optimist in me thinks consumers have more tolerance to pay for AI tools vs search & media.
Came here to write the same thing. Real search queries have gone down about a half for me. I also largely agree on the reason. Hallucinations happen, but a specific question + answer gets me still faster where I want to be. SEO and StackOverflow karma optimisations have basically made the usefulness of my typical search results go down in the last 5 years or so. Besides, many Google search "features" feel like useless patronisation. For instance, if I search for a thing that is likely on wikipedia, with the english title, Google now shows me the corresponding german wikipedia page first. Its just that I dont need the translated stuff to be able to understand it, and, even more important, english wikipedia articles are usually a little more detailed. Thats why I searched for the english title in the first place damn it, Google. But yeah, I get why you do this. Its just, that I am not the audience you are trying to make happy... So, since there is now an alternative, you basically lost me. I guess the big picture is, they actually dont care about experts leaving. Because, you know, we are a minority.
Got any ideas what you would like to see instead/how to solve these pain points?

I've looked into running my own hydra instance recently. It's possible but I don't have the machine that I could host it on for my purposes right now (I would want to mirror the fixed output derivations and be able to compile most things in ramfs).
That's not clear actually. We could, given a religious like motivation, build massive space stations right now with today's rockets, materials, and lifetimes. It's incremental building.

We could not get to the nearest star with today's rockets (or eq.), materials, or lifetimes. There's no incremental engineering there.
If there are issues with getting drivers to pay attention to what they're doing, would you say that's likely to be helped or hindered by a tool which allows them to ignore the road entirely 99% of the time?
Yep they do. Provenance and especially "build provenance" are what they are referring to but definitely misspell it.

The former is easy to test, just make up your own puzzles and see if it can solve them.

"Incapable of reasoning" doesn't mean "only solves some logic puzzles". Hell, GPT-4 is better at reasoning than a large number of people. Would you say that a good percentage of humans are poor at reasoning too?

I.e. don't throw bad apples into bin, because they will rot deeper, but keep them closer to healthy apples with hope that healthy apples will heal bad ones.

Nice idea, I like it too.
I strongly disagree. As a simple example, just this week I was looking for ice breaker questions for a work team event. I started with Google and was wading through a myriad of pages stuffed with ads and noise. I happened to have Claude open for an unrelated work experiment and thought to ask Claude for ice breaker questions. It provided 10 good questions and I selected the first two. It’s just a matter of time until we retrain our brains to first use LLMs before Google and then Google’s usage is going to drop like a rock. LLMs for many use cases is simply better, providing better results with far less noise.
Good point. My strategy is to buy a new laptop (Thinkpad X1 Carbon) every one or two years and install the latest LTS of Xubuntu, so that a 3-year support is long enough for me.

Over the years, I have developed my notes and scripts to configure quickly a newly installed Xubuntu system on a new computer, so that everything works in the same way as on my old computer. Since I stick with the same brand of laptop (Thinkpad X1 Carbon), I do not feel any difference after the configuration, except that the computer becomes more powerful. I do not want to spend my time on adapting myself to a new system or a new computer.

Buying a new laptop so frequently may sound a bit expensive. It is indeed not if you spend so much time on your laptop as me. A more powerful laptop means that I can finish my work (e.g., numerical experiments) in (much) less time. In this sense, my life is prolonged. This is the only case I know that a common person can effectively trade an affordable amount of money for a longer life, as I often tell my students.
TBF, unsafe Rust still enforces much more correctness than C or C++ (Rust's "unsafety" is more similar to Zig than C or C++).

Yup. In addition, a large number of California’s African American population consists of descendants of the Second Great Migration from the South. Many African Americans moved to California in the 1940s and 1950s for job opportunities. I am a third-generation Californian; I have one grandparent from Texas and three from Arkansas. My dad’s side of the family grew up in Bakersfield, where there is a very large population who migrated from Oklahoma during the Dust Bowl. My mom’s side didn’t settle in one place (my grandfather was in the military) but they spent a significant amount of time in San Luis Obispo County, Oakland, and Sacramento. We say “y’all” at home (but not in public) and we eat Southern food on special occasions.

Exactly! I'm hoping to expose autorouter/autolayout to userland (e.g. "drop your function here") and see what clever people come up with. I have some ideas but there's so many fun ways to do it so I'm cautious to sink too much time in. But it's a super important problem and I do think a new multi-layer flexbox/cssgrid could make wiring work really well.

>Serious question- my understanding is that when Americans say "reproductive rights" that's a euphemism for easy access to elective abortions for unwanted pregnancies.

Banning abortion in practice leads to banning miscarriages that might have been abortions. It leads to doctors being afraid to ask if you're pregnant and afraid to do any procedures for fear of accidentally inducing a miscarriage and thus running afoul of the anti-abortion laws.

Also, abortion laws are set to cause problems for in-vitro fertilization, too (which tends to produce excess viable fertilized eggs, and disposing of said excess eggs could legally be considered an abortion).

In other words, it is legally dangerous for a woman to get pregnant in an anti-abortion state.

"Another crash occurred in March 2023 in North Carolina and involved a 2022 Model Y. The vehicle
was traveling at highway speed when it struck a minor pedestrian exiting a school bus. The pedestrian
was evacuated by air to a hospital for treatment of serious injuries. Based on publicly available
information, both the bus and the pedestrian would have been visible to an attentive driver and
allowed the driver to avoid or minimize the severity of this crash."

These systems need to be banned from public roads until a comprehensive test suite is developed which verifies their ability to drive safely in all conditions.
That's right. Reading the above thread it seems to me the distinction between "good" and "bad" hardware is made by whether it works with Linux, but that's circular reasoning. Moreover, my intention behind my comment about my new Lenovo laptop was that it can't simply be a matter of unusual low-volume hardware running into support issues.
One could install Ubuntu and `sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop` then tweak from there.
Something can be predictable in some ways and not in others. If you build AI that is capable of giving you answers to complex world issues, the intermediary steps might not be predictable, and perhaps neigher the final answer, but you might just need it to be correct, because it will be an answer dependent on the external world, which is itself not very predictable.
Yes it is really, I think.

The self-motivation is one thing. If you build it yourself it's because you either need it or want it enough. If you build something you get self confidence based in reality and experience based in something. It is expected that only few of the personal projects are ever interesting to someone else.

Maybe hacking on some small stuff for four years is what you need to be able to graduate to know enough real world stuff to contribute to bigger projects in practice, then that's just how it is.

Now I think of neovim and it's ecosystem right now because I'm in that phase, but most of the small plugins are driven by single people alone, and they can still have a ton of users. Is it still open source? Yes, it's open source if it has an open source license. You are correct that an open project and open source are not the same thing and don't need to be.

This is one set of speculations trying to counter another set of speculations. Here is my speculation to add to the pile. Google tolerates but does not particularly like sending traffic to external websites. To the extent that Google can scrape the useful content from websites (and other sources owned by third party rights owners) and provide it to users without those users leaving a Google property, they will do so. LLM chatbots make it easier to scrape this content while gaining plausible deniability when it comes to copyright infringement by creation of derivative works.

So, this does not have to be driven by user behavior. The user wants plausibly good enough responses to queries. The user typically wants to pay as little as possible in terms of time and money for those responses. To the extent that Google and other Google-likes can satisfy those users without sending traffic to or paying third party site operators and rights owners, they will do so.

Think about it in terms of a speculative video search tool. The user searches Youtube for an answer about a type of tax credit. Above the fold, Google offers to render on the user's machine an LLM generated video answer to their tax question. The video agent will also answer follow up questions without refreshing the page. Below the fold, Google places the Youtube videos. To the extent that users pick the AI result, Google does not need to pay for the third party videos or the traffic costs. At the end of the AI generated video, Google places an inobtrusive paid ad for TumboTax.
No I opened this post with my eyes closed, picked a random comment and responded.

My point isn’t that misdiagnoses don’t happen, they happen for a lot of things other than Lyme, but the fact that people will take vengeance on doctors when the detection of Lyme is unpredictable (tests only really detect it within a certain timeframe of infection), the ambiguity around symptoms and their relation to Lyme, and the historical baggage around Lyme in general, makes it a very hard problem for medical professionals to give definite recommendations and or treatments.
