It looks like there are 3 possible outcomes: AI will do absolutely nothing, AI will enhance the productivity of radiologists, or AI will render their skills completely obsolete.

In case 1, learning radiology is a fine idea. In case 2, it becomes a little tricky, I guess if you are one of the most skilled radiologists you’ll do quite well for yourself (do the work of 10 and I bet you can take the pay of 2). For case 3, it becomes a bad career choice.

Although, I dunno, it seems like an odd thing to complain about. I mean, the nature of humans is that we make tools—we’re going to automate if it is possible. Rather I think the problem is that we’ve decided that if somebody makes the wrong bet about how their field will go, they should live in misery and deprivation.
>Wouldn't that mean that "the party" is over, just write a single paper and you can shut down and dismantle the machine you've just finished building?

No, not at all.
Seems plausible with the advancements in the technology. Which startups have you looked at? So far the best ones I've seen are Synthesia and HeyGen. There's still a bit of "uncanny valley" going on, but I could see them closing the realism gap over the next few years.
What’s missing from most of these analyses is the perspective that Arm really doesn’t want Qualcomm to become a dominant - architecture license (ALA) based - vendor of Arm based SoCs. Bad for Arm and for Arm’s other customers and the ecosystem.

Whilst Qualcomm has a wide ranging ALA that’s always a possibility. This might just be an opportunistic move to remove that threat to Arm’s business model.

zz^* is fine for scalar complex numbers, but z^*z is nice because it also works for vectors. You can think of the complex conjugate as a special case of an adjoint, and the hermetian transpose is another special case.

> the behavior of the device has to change depending on the location.

That wasn't the case in a previous era. A country could make a decision that says division is illegal and ban new 4-function calculators, but all the calculators made before that would still work the same. Banned books could still be read if you already had them. Today thanks to the double-edged sword of constant connectivity, it's plausible that Apple can just add and delete features when you pass over physical borders, meaning that the set of functionality you buy is increasingly ill-defined. You don't own a phone, you just own a conditional license to the iPhone experience, which they'll tweak over time to comply with various governments on the most limited geographic scale possible while maximizing their revenue.

None of this is that shocking or interesting now that we're used to it, but it's annoying that we don't own or control the devices we buy and can't even guarantee they keep a certain feature set.
Automation may be a concern. Not because of Hinton, though. There is only so much time in the day. You don't become a leading expert in AI like Hinton has without tuning out the rest of the world, which means a random Average Joe is apt to be in a better position to predict when automation is capable of radiology tasks than Hinton. If an expert in radiology was/is saying it, then perhaps it is worth a listen. But Hinton is just about the last person you are going to listen to on this matter.

The point is that it doesn't need to. According to google, making sure that new code is safe is good enough.
There's another theory I've heard that goes more into what ghosts are, that isn't in the article: They're not spirits, but more like an imprint on reality. This would also explain why so many just repeat the same actions over and over, and to some extent not just clothes but other things that appear in a ghost-like form they'd interact with. The one missing part of this theory is, it should be possible to create such an imprint with someone who is still alive.
Medical professionals are highly paid, thus an education in medicine is proportionally expensive. An education in medicine is expensive, thus younger medical professionals need to be highly paid in order to afford their debt. Until the vicious cycle is here is broken (e.g. less accessible student loans? and more easily defaultable is one way to spell less accessible), things are not going to improve. And there’s also the problem that you want your doctors to be highly paid, because it’s a stressful, high-responsibility job with stupidly difficult education.

But if you want to get a sizeable contract from me personally, I'd like to talk with real person right at the spot (and not only if the AI can't give some canned answer).

> Just about every far-right populist political party in the west is being or has been funded and supported by Russia. This is a fact.

Never ceases to amaze me how people can throw absolutely bogus bs without any remotely reasonable proof and then say “this is a fact”.

Normally i wouldn’t dignify that nonsense with any sort of discussion, but i am just curious how anyone would try to support arguments “Russia funded ALL far right parties” in the west.

That may be but it doesn't take much page turning in a history book to find plenty of instances where society has been very wrong and not even in the distant past.

Society changes slowly. The iterative speed of computers, the iterative speed of feedback on a global communications network based on those computers is new, it has many orders of magnitude faster response times than society's ability to adapt to the changes it brings and the systemic study of human behavior over years and years leading to mathematical models of behavior and responses has created massive information asymmetry in society and the scale of manipulation a small group of people can leverage is astounding, being skeptical of society's value propositions seems in order.

If you mean this article[1], then these opening paragraphs should help you be less confused:

A SpaceX Crew Dragon, on a mission dubbed Crew-8, left the International Space Station on Wednesday, but Williams and Wilmore were once again be left behind for the simple reason that they were not assigned to that specific spacecraft.

Notably, the four astronauts that were assigned to Crew-8’s mission — NASA’s Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt and Jeanette Epps as well as Alexander Grebenkin of the Russian space agency, Roscosmos — had been on the ISS since March 5, roughly three months longer than Williams and Wilmore.

That’s because the Crew-8 team was part of a regular crew rotation at the orbiting laboratory, and routine missions typically last about six months.

The team disembarked from the ISS Wednesday afternoon and headed for a splashdown off the coast of Florida. That happened on Friday at about 3:29 a.m. ET.

Encryption isn't needed, because nothing important happens over the internet.

Nobody shops online, or does their banking online. Nobody would ever work from home over the internet - how would the boss know if workers were sleeping on the job? People who want to buy stocks from their phone simply phone their stockbroker. Anyone can post any nonsense on the internet, so it's useless for any serious research. Dating online, where anyone can lie about anything? I hardly think that's likely.

The idea that a control system for an important bit of infrastructure like a power plant would be connected to the internet? A car with a driver assistance system getting software updates over the internet? Utterly inconceivable.

A pandemic that shifts almost the entire economy and almost all socialisation online? I doubt that would ever happen. In my society, we cover our mouths when we sneeze, and wash our hands after using the bathroom.

Just look at the most valuable companies, that have driven the growth of the economy over recent decades. Apple, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, Amazon, Facebook, Netflix. If there's one thing they have in common, it's that they're absolutely nothing to do with the internet.

The internet is, at its heart, nothing more than a chatroom for shut-in losers to talk about pokemon - so there's no need for anything online to be private.

You laugh, but that's apparently what I did a decade and a half ago.

I recently mounted a HDD that was at my parents' house. Most files are from 2009-2012ish. I was there one summer between undergrad and grad school and used it for a couple months.

I found an Opera password list that I'd exported, presumably to copy over to my new laptop. It was fun last night skimming the list, seeing which websites I'd completely forgotten about that I used to have accounts for. Almost none of them even exist anymore besides the big players (Slashdot, Apple, etc.), but the point is *almost all of them had the same password*. o.O

Maybe so, but what if AI developments accelerate and since the big companies have all the data and computational power they put you out of business faster than you can see the next thing the market wants?

That is because Mr Hinton is full of shit. He constantly overstates the progress to bolster his position on associated risks. And now someone gave him a bloody Nobel so he'll be even more intolerable.

What is behind the curtain is becoming obvious and while there are some gains in some specific areas, the ability for this technology as it stands today to change society is mostly limited to pretending to be a solution for usual shitty human behaviour of cost cutting and reducing workforce. For example IBM laying off people under the guise of AI when actually it was a standard cost cutting exercise with some marketing smeared over the top while the management told the remaining people to pick up the slack. A McKinsey special! And generating content which is to be consumed by people who can't tell the difference between humans and muck.

A fine example is from the mathematics side we are constantly promised huge gains in LLMs but we can't replace a flunked undergrad with anything yet. And this is because it is the wrong tool for the fucking job. Which is the problem in one simple statement: it's mostly the wrong tool for most things.

Still I enjoyed the investment ride! I could model that one with my brain fine.
I'm surprised continue.dev isn't getting a mention here. I've tried copilot, cody, and cursor, and ultimately came back to continue.dev. I can use my own models, api key, etc. The same VSCode setup I'm used to, custom context providers, doc indexing, etc. It's proven to be extremely useful for me - though I use it less for autocomplete, and more for interactive back-and-forth sessions to arrive at a block of code.

FWIW it is a myth that Google uses where you login with Google for retargeting. Big Tech is always concerned about having to share user specific usage with US agencies. Google considers knowing where you login to be toxic data that they want to dump as quickly as possible. There are more than enough other signals from re-targetting.
Not the original commenter, but also ex-HEP person:

The invariant mass is the rest mass of the particle (i.e. it's "inherent" mass). You can calculate it by taking the final state decay products of the original particle (i.e. the particles that are actually observed by the detector) and summing up their four-vectors (squared).

You can plot the invariant mass calculated from any particular final state, and for a rare particle like the Higgs the majority of the contributions to your plot will be from background processes (i.e. not Higgs decays) that decay into the same final state.

If you have a lot of Higgs decays in your sample you should be able to see a clear peak in the distribution at the invariant mass of the Higgs boson, a clear sign that the Higgs (or something with the same mass) exists.

Often by the time the discovery has reached statistical significance, you might not really be able to see such a clear sign in the mass distribution. I.e. the calculations are telling you it's there but you can't see it that clearly.

I wouldn't really say this helps confirm the discovery in a scientific sense, just that it's reassuring that the signal is so strong that you can see it by eye.
no need togo that far in history - we can compare NATO expansion since 2000-2015. And you are right saying there were talks about Russia joining NATO. But it didn’t happen and never would, since nato is a hostile military organization

You could still brick these if you set certain efuses that the BootROM checks.

Also that's how some vendors mitigated the bug discussed in that article you linked, by disabling USB access to BootROM entirely through setting that efuse in a firmware update.
That calculation does not hold for developing countries. Rider's license fee is huge in countries with per capita GDP is a small fraction of USA's per capita GDP.
> Glymphatic transport is most efficient in the right lateral sleeping position

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7698404/ Section 3.4.3
Scenario 2 is the most likely by far. It's just the continuation of a trend in radiology. Clinics already employ many more "technicians" with basic training and have a "proper" radiologist double checking and signing their work. If you're a technician (or a radiologist NOT supervising technicians), you're in hot water.
I wonder if the unstated issue here is:

C++ is so complex that it's hard to think through all the implications of design proposals like this.

So practically speaking, the only way to prove a design change is to implement it and get lots of people to take it for a test drive.

But it's hard to find enough people willing to do that in earnest, so the only real way to test the idea is to make it part of the language standard.

Extrapolating in a linear fashion, in a few years my child will be ten foot tall, weight six hundred pounds, and speak 17 languages.

The first 90% is the easy part. It's the other 90% that's hard. People forget that, especially people who don't work in software/technology.
I've only read lightly on the historical literature of ghosts, but I think TFA has some basic misconceptions. Through most of history, ghost sightings appeared to be of regular people, with the witness only realizing later that it was a ghost. The conception of ghosts having ethereal appearance appears to have become widespread in the late 19th century.
Yes, even Uber was pushed out in many places with lawfare and jobs reasons. Taxi drivers do have some moderately strong lobby in many places. So just think about taking on doctors... The discussion was never really about which service is better. It was about whose toes they were stepping on.

In healthcare you can't take the "asking for forgiveness is easier than permission" route. That's a quick way to jail. In taxiing, it's just some fines that fit the budget.

My overall point isn't to argue whether these disruptions are socially beneficial. I'm trying to point at the more neutral observation that who you're taking on and how much power they have will be crucial to the success of a disruptor. It's not just about "product quality" based on some objective dispassionate politics-free scientific benchmarks.

Same for software devs: We'll all be working on AI that's working on our problems, but we'll also work on our problems to generate better training data, build out the rest of the automation and verify the AI's solutions, so really AI will be doing all the work and so will we.
Today I learned that Firefox finally implemented these! They don't mention this in the article, but that's new this month—for the longest time Chrome supported it but it isn't in the standard and Firefox didn't include it. Safari got it 2 years later, but Firefox held out for a while.

I'm normally not a fan of Chrome unilaterally adding something to the platform, but this has been a long time coming.

I really don't think it takes a mastermind of software design to go "okay I've built a system that takes control of the plane's maneuverability, let's make sure we have redundant sensors on this". Furthermore, descriptions of MCAS and its role were dangerously under played so that they didn't have to tell their customers to retrain their pilots. An egregious breach of public trust in a company we put a whole lot of faith into.
I wonder what experts think about this specialized model:

"Harrison.rad.1 excels in the same radiology exams taken by human radiologists, as well as in benchmarks against other foundational models.

The Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) 2B Rapids exam is considered one of the leading and toughest certifications for radiologists. Only 40-59% of human radiologists pass on their first attempt. Radiologists who re-attempt the exam within a year of passing score an average of 50.88 out of 60 (84.8%).

Harrison.rad.1 scored 51.4 out of 60 (85.67%)."

https://harrison.ai/harrison-rad-1/
Ghosts aren't real, but the folklore around them has to conform to acceptable societal norms, particularly in the context of Victorian era Britain where the cultural template for most Western ghost stories originates, so ghosts have to be depicted with the necessary modesty unless offending that modesty is an intentional theme.

Also, clothes are useful for signaling a "ghost's" identity and status.

Not really, the workers are loosing money since Boeing is refusing to come up with an acceptable deal, the reason for the strike in the first place is because they weren't paid enough for the job they're doing.

> The one Boeing proposed seems acceptable to me

Are you a machinist working for Boeing? I'm guessing you, like most of us, are involved in software one way or another, and it's seems hard in general for people to empathize with blue-collar workers unless you've been one yourself.

> I'm genuinely curious what they even want, aside from the pension plan they obviously won't get.

TLDR from the initial demands:

- 40% raise

- Reinstate the defined benefit pension plan they lost a decade ago

- Higher contributions to employee 401k retirement funds

Seems like it's pretty well known what the workers want, yet Boeing still puts forward proposals that don't meet the demands. And besides that, Boeing shared the last proposal to the media for even approaching the workers with it. Not sure what they're thinking.
