I'd be surprised if any legal department in any company with one will not freak the f out when they read this. They will likely loose the biggest customers first, so even if it is 1% of customers, it will likely affect their bottom line enough to give it a second though. I don't see how they might profit from an in-house LLM more than from their enterprise-tier plans.

Their customer support will have a hell of a day today.

I don't know a word or phrase for this, but I really enjoy any examples of "thinking outside the box" like this because it's something I struggle with in my professional career. Learning not only the right ways to solve problems, but figuring out the questions to ask that make solving the problems you have easier or even in some cases possible. In this case, it's hey, we don't need exact numbers if we can define a probabilistic range given defined parameters. Other problems are gonna have other questions. I guess my hope is that if I see enough examples I'll be able to eventually internalize the thought process and apply it correctly.

Programming Intel 87C51 – first high-volume integrated microcontroller (1980)
Today we are used to luxury of fully integrated microcontrollers - all key components are conveniently integrated into single reliable part: non-volatile memory, SRAM, CPU core, PLL, ADC/DAC, PWM, serial ports, e.t.c It was not like that in the past and embedded systems typically required lots of chips, until Intel 8048 (MCS-48) was released in 1976 on n-MOS technology. Intel expected that 8048 will have limited product lifetime, and in 4 years, in 1980 it was replaced by 8051 (MCS-51) which conquered the world. It was first high-volume product to integrate 4KiB of PROM, 128 bytes of SRAM, GPIO, serial port as well as 8-bit core in a single crystal. 87C51FC variant was using 32KiB EPROM non-volatile memory instead of PROM's, double SRAM size (256 byte), C-version was manufactured on CMOS process - which makes it exceptionally modern for the time. It was not particularly fast - simplest commands took 12 clock cycles to execute, so even at 20Mhz it was doing just over 1 million operations per second, also - no 16-bit division commands. Modern 8051-compatible cores are much faster and often do single-cycle command execution.

Recently I got my hands on D87C51FC-20, and decided to experience the old ways of embedded software.

As someone with an art degree (with no great admiration for street art per sé) I have to ask one question:

Could you imagine that one person's "defaced" is another person's "finally some colors"?

The destruction of property, trespassing etc. is obviously on the wrong side of the law, but on purely aesthetical terms this could be argued either way making it for that narrow category a subjective thing. Proponents of graffiti could argue you cannot deface a faceless thing, opponents would argue they like their lawn short, their fence white, the sky blue. One persons order is another persons prison.

Note that I tried to look at the aesthetic question while ignoring the legal question — mainly because you made an aesthetic argument. For many people the two would be entangled however: Something being illegal makes them look at the result unfavourable, even if a similar legal wall mural would strike them as aesthetically superior to the 10 years weathered white wall that it was before.

As an art person I really see truly good graffiti, yet I have to notice that heavily graffitied parts of my city are tourist magnets — so many people tend to like those "defaced" walls.

I use several sites like ArtStation, Pixiv and aggregators to download new wallpapers for my devices.

This used to be an entertaining experience to see all the kinds of beautiful art people used to create... But as you said it is getting filled by AI crap. I noticed the same thing with Pixiv, even if I opt-out from AI art, new results from several popular tags are filled with badly tagged AI images.

Now the experience feels tiresome, in some categories I waste too much time filtering between real and AI art. I started to search things produced before 2022-2023 to avoid AI.

This "art" should be uploaded to its own subdomain and never get mixed up with real art.
Honestly, that demo alone would be enough to get funding at any demo day, really cool stuff.
Yes and we've seen nothing yet on that front. It's impressive that at the current cost levels, batteries are already making a huge impact. But those cost levels are still high and there are much lower cost batteries on the way. Bigger, better, cheaper, etc. That's going to be the story with batteries for the foreseeable future.

Using the same batteries as in automotive applications, as is common in the storage market right now, doesn't make any long term sense. Those are optimized for things that simply don't matter in grid storage. Like size and weight. Energy density doesn't matter for grid storage. Cost per kwh is what matters. Decimating that cost is going to drive adoption further. And who says it will stop there? Using cheaper chemistries (e.g. sodium ion, metal oxide, redux, etc.) is going to open up much more of the market.

And while battery and renewables cost continues to come down; we're pretty much at the end of the road for gas plants. They've peaked technologically and they are about as efficient as they'll ever be. Worse, they might get more expensive to operate as they come under pressure to implement carbon capture. Also carbon taxes might increase the price of fuel for these plants. And of course the fluctuations in gas prices means operating gas plants becomes more risky.

There are already a lot of gas plants designed for 24x7 operation just sitting there and idling until the rare moment the operators can justify the cost of firing them up. Utilization rates for these plants are dropping. That's going to have an impact on related investments and the return on those. Anyone banking on 24x7 running operations is going to be in for a nasty surprise.

The article mentions a Californian plant from 2008 that has already been decommissioned. That's a great example of this. This is going to repeat across the market. Most gas plants operating today will be decommissioned long before their scheduled end of life and they won't be generating as much of a return on investment as was hoped for at the moment of their opening because of poor utilization and a shortened life span.

That's going to significantly affect the interest of investors in building new gas plants. That probably already is a huge factor.
The "decoder" article says:

> The researchers defined 50 percent as success on the Turing test, since participants then couldn't distinguish between human and machine better than chance.

54% of GPT-4 conversations were judged to be human, so the "decoder" article says the Turing test has been passed--indeed, it seems more human than human. But the paper says:

> humans’ pass rate was significantly higher than GPT-4’s (z = 2.42, p = 0.017)

The seeming discrepancy arises because they've run a nonstandard test, in which the meaning of that 50% threshold is very hard to interpret (and definitely not what the "decoder" author claims). The canonical version of Turing's test is passed by a machine that can

> play the imitation game so well, that an average interrogator will not have more than a 70 percent chance of making the right identification after five minutes of questioning

The canonical experiment is thus to give the interrogator two conversations, one with a human and one with a non-human, and ask them to judge which is which. The probability that they judge correctly maps directly to Turing's criterion. If the two conversations were truly indistinguishable, then the interrogator would judge correctly with p = 50%; but that would take infinitely many trials to distinguish, so Turing (arbitrarily, but reasonably) increased the threshold to 70%.

That doesn't seem to be the experiment that this paper actually conducted. They don't say it explicitly, but it seems like each interrogator had a single conversation, with a human with p = 1/4. The interrogator wasn't told anything about that prior, leading them to systematically overestimate P(human). If every interrogator had simply always guessed "non-human", then they'd collectively have been right more often.

Even if the interrogators had been given that prior, very few would have the mathematical background to make use of it. GPT-4 is impressive, but this test is strictly worse than Turing's, whose result has clear and intuitive meaning.

I think it is important to realize that relational, object-oriented and structured data (such as XML and JSON) are all implementation of an often far more richer data model. Would it not be better to implement something for the richer data model, such that querying relational data models to produce JSON (for example) would become trivial?

Right, but as you can see in the resulting buck passing, everybody says it wasn't their fault that this obviously unsuitable material was used. The people who made it said they hadn't intended it to be for these high rise buildings (if you clad my building in this stuff it would look ugly but the fire danger isn't significant because the building isn't very tall). The people who chose it said it passed fire regulations and so as far as they knew it was OK. The people who installed it say that some third party told them this was OK. The regulators say they thought they'd banned it. Nobody wants to admit "We didn't care that probably poor people will die, we were focused on $$$"

Ok, point taken, indeed it reads like that. However, in programming and generally in engineering this is a very useful concept. There is a difference between "component X is part of Y" than "component X works / interacts with Y" or "component X has exclusive access to Y in this particular span", similarly how it is often very important to know if "component X can be safely shared" - and Rust allows to express that, while languages like Java are quite blind to that.

Consider a simple Java method signature:

public static MyCustomFileReader open(FileHandle someFile) { ... }

Who is responsible for closing the file after you're done with reading it?
Does the returned reader close the file handle on close, or should I issue another close on the file handle afterwards?
Can I open multiple readers on the same file? The only way to know is to check the javadoc comment, if someone took time to write it. In Rust there are no doubts like that.
> I’m not a formal verification guy, but I don’t think locks in the traditional sense is helpful. No compiler will give you anything useful to work with wrt locks. You just accept and live with the danger.

Deadlock analysis is well understood. You have to prove that locks get locked in the same order regardless of the path taken. That can be easy or hard. In many cases, if you have the call graph annotated with where locks are set and cleared, you can try to prove that the program is deadlock-free. I'd like to see Rust tools to help with that.
