> The fear is that a hyper competent AI becomes hyper motivated. It’s not something I fear because everyone is working on improving competence and no one is working on motivation.

Not so much hyper-motivated as monomaniacal in the attempt to optimise whatever it was told to optimise.

More paperclips? It just does that without ever getting bored or having other interests that might make it pause and think: "how can my boss reward me if I kill him and feed his corpse into the paperclip machine?"

We already saw this before LLMs. Even humans can be a little bit dangerous like this, hence Goodhart's Law.

> It’s NOT as simple as just telling an AI “your task is to destroy humanity.” Because it can just as easily then be told “don’t destroy humanity,” and it will receive that instruction with equal emphasis.

Only if we spot it in time; right now we don't even need to tell them to stop because they're not competent enough, a sufficiently competent AI given that instruction will start by ensuring that nobody can tell it to stop.

Even without that, we're currently experiencing a set of world events where a number of human agents are causing global harm, which threatens our global economy and to cause global mass starvation and mass migration, and where those agents have been politically powerful enough to prevent the world from not doing those things. Although we have at least started to move away from fossil fuels, this was because the alternatives got cheap enough, but that was situational and is not guaranteed.

An AI that successfully makes a profit, but the side effects is some kind of environmental degradation, would have similar issues even if there's always a human around that can theoretically tell the AI to stop.

Maybe that's why I'm such a slow programmer. I have to visualize (quite literally) the mechanism and how it works and translates to the problem before I can wrap my head around it. Almost as if the program was a watch, and each method was a gear or switch in the contraption. I think one of my deficits is I need to keep this all in my head or I kind of get lost with it.
A face impression would be very distorted when moving from a 3D face to a 2D sheet. So it is not an impression.
Except its not. Port forwarding exposes your local environment to the internet, unrestricted. Pinggy (and other sharing platforms - https://github.com/anderspitman/awesome-tunneling) share a resource on a public IP, which should be at the very least behind basic auth. The 'better alternative' you describe is an overlay network. These things have different purposes.
Maybe I haven't noticed this since I got inoculated against this notion by the reality of farmers early on.

It still seems surprising to me that this idea can survive more than five seconds of thought. Farmers own tracts of land, lots of equipment, and have to navigate the market for their product, financing, capital allocation, weather patterns, all sorts of random events. They frequently have dozens of employees, and constantly have to negotiate with those, and with customers, and with vendors.

All of this is in addition to the actual growing of crops.

It seems like the most natural thing in the world that this type of person won't take kindly to being dictated to by John Deere (doesn't mean it doesn't happen anyway) and would try their hand at a bit of hacking if needs must.

He essentially preserved the economic/racial balance of apartheid, while he and the people around him became the new insiders. He started hanging out with the Clintons and giving diamonds to Naomi Campbell.

> To me, the peaceful transition is the achievement. It is the amazing part of it.

Apartheid was "peaceful" enough. The problem is the lack of "transition." The same people are still living in the shacks their parents lived in.

> that's why non-South Africans look on Mandela so fondly.

Non-South Africans had a lot of cognitive dissonance because they did business with South Africa and they didn't like what that said about themselves morally. The end of Apartheid gave them the license to continue that business guilt-free. It's like how sharecropping debt peonage to the same plantations that people were enslaved in and the leasing of convicts who had been sentenced to decade-long sentences for the crime of vagrancy let Americans feel better about how much they benefited from slavery.
The miles driven are rising exponentially as the versions improve according to company filings. If the miles driven on previous versions are no longer relevant how can the NHTSA investigation of previous versions impact FSD regulation today?

Given that the performance has improved dramatically over the last 6 months, it is very reasonable to assume that the miles driven to fatality ratio also improving.

Using the value of 1.33 deaths per 100 million miles driven vs 2 deaths in 2 billion miles driven, FSD has saved approximately 24 lives so far.

For the record, I'm not affiliated with Subvert and in reading the docs I find their arguments about the "problem" with Bandcamp extremely weak/hypothetical and stated over and over again without any evidence. I am skeptical that they understand the economics of running a music retail site and think they might find that the cut Bandcamp takes is actually pretty fair for the value bands get. And I also don't really get how they plan to make this "collective ownership" actually work for real, but I also got really exhausted reading the doc and gave up, so maybe it's buried in there. The real reason I posted it here was hoping the HN hive mind would dissect and critique the actual plan for me. :)
I see a lot of negative comments. Want to leave a positive one. The site worked fine for me and the process was pretty straight forward.

Image generation took a bit (currently waiting, will keep writing once it finishes). I sent 3 images to generate, and even though the site said "images will be in the "generated" section even after you reload. Once I reloaded there was nothing anywhere, and no sign of the 3 images I sent. I tried re-generating again and the site told me that I only had 2 credits left; so I sent to generate 1. At the end, it only generated 1 image.

It feels as if the generator "shrunk" the size of a wall and added some doors in place of a wall. Other than that I like the design.

The inner monologue is nice, and I have it, but I believe I've also experienced the opposite. It's more of a "vibe/feeling check" where it just feels right to grab the rice and make a rice dish for dinner, it's not an active conversation in my head like: "What should I make for dinner? Fish? Rice?"

For people without an inner monologue, is that mostly correct or am I way off?

So, we are acknowledging that there exist parallel non-overlaping equally valid notions and definitions of science.

As others have said I would say first-mover/brand advantage is the big one. Also their o1 model does seem to have some research behind it that hasn't been replicated by others.

It depends a lot on the problem, but I tend to visualize the /processes/ of the programs that I am working on, rather than the code itself: for example, if I'm writing a function that parses a string, I try to imagine it going over the string, finding the positions of individual characters and capturing substrings between them. If I'm working with asynchronous or network code, I try to visualize how the processes (or hosts) should be working at different times, and how they might send messages to each other.

I find it very necessary and useful a lot of the time to draw diagrams, or even just written notes on the problem I am dealing with. A lot of my mental visualizations are very clear, but it is difficult to retain several at a time.

And like someone else in this thread shared, I often have to get away from the problem and do something else for my mind to garbage-collect itself and have enough room to clearly think up new angles. For me only a matter of even a few minutes away from the computer helps a lot.

If you define science in terms of the scientific method, you make it a fundamentally useless hobby that can never produce anything of value. If falsifying hypotheses is all you can do, you can never create the kind of knowledge others can build on. The part of science that creates value is building models and explanations that can make reliable predictions. And that can be used as building blocks of more elaborate models and explanations for more complex phenomena.

In theoretical computer science, design and analysis of algorithms is the study of algorithms as mathematical objects. The unfortunately named algorithm engineering is the science of algorithms. It deals with algorithms that are written in code and run on real computers. Among other things, it seeks to build models that can predict the performance of an algorithm without implementing and running it.

Then there is algorithmic economics (or whatever it's called today), which was a huge success for theoretical computer science. At least in some amoral sense. The microeconomic models it created enabled turning the internet into the ad-centric data-driven dystopia it currently is.

MIPS64 is still very much alive: https://store.ui.com/us/en/products/er-4

"EdgeOS" is based on Linux, and people run vanilla Linux distributions on those boxes, as well as OpenBSD and NetBSD.

I wonder how long Marvell will continue selling those Octeon MIPS64 chips, though. Marvell (then Cavium) switched to ARM nearly a decade ago (2016) for newer chips in the Octeon series. I think Loongson sells more modern MIPS64 (or at least MIPS64-like) chips, but they don't seem to be commercially available outside China.

The problem is that they have no moat, and Sam Altman is no visionary. He's clearly been outed as a ruthless opportunist whose primary skill is seizing opportunities, not building out visionary technical roadmaps. The jury is still out on his ability to execute, but things do seem to be falling apart with the exit of his top engineering talent.

Compare this to Elon Musk, who has built multiple companies with sizable moats, and who has clearly contributed to the engineering vision and leadership of his companies. There is no comparison. It's unlikely OpenAI would have had anywhere near its current success if Elon wasn't involved in the early days with funding and organizing the initial roadmap.

> For example, according to an (unverified) story someone told me, a vendor to US east coast food cooperatives now controls many of them; they get their person in, pass bylaws empowering them and disempowering the board (the board usually lacking sophistication), and have deeper pockets for any legal struggle than any co-op member does.

For anyone interested in learning more, this is a reference to the National Cooperative Grocers and the role of UNFI (a primary distributor for many food coops) and CDS (a cooperative grocery consulting firm). I've been pretty involved in my local grocery cooperative's governance over the past two decades.

Why our software never returns warnings
I read the first 3 paragraphs, skimmed, and the last paragraph, and did a keyword search (I should have search for perspective, but that wasn't on my mind).

Title is bad no matter what.

Edit:

Here's another Narrative:

The author is a university professor and most often writes for students.

As such, they expect the reader to fully and completely read the whole selection, as they will be tested on it.

I, however am not a student, and so the first thing I do is evaluate whether an article is worth my time. I do this by reading 3 or so paragraphs, skim for keywords, and the last paragraph. This is so common there must be a name for it [0] that I don't know because I am also not a media studies graduate.

As this is so common, it must be written for; the author is expected to introduce any keywords in the first 3 or last paragraph. If they do not, the editor should return it.

The title is generally not written by the author, but may be selected from a list that are provided by an editor. The author should update their writing so that the title makes sense in context.

Hundreds of thousands of linux-based smartnic cards, actually. Fun stuff. Those particular ones were EOLd and have been replaced with ARM but the MIPS based ones will live on in the datacenters until they die, I'm sure.

> Like previous you, I have to admit I'm skeptical but would be happy to be wrong

Seriously, you are going to be delighted to be wrong. On your linux machine, go write a go program and write "GOOS=darwin GOARCH=arm64 go build ..." and you will have yourself an ARM mac binary. Or for going the other way, use GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64. It really is that simple.
