The whole article and the report, nowhere is it explained how they get their numbers. What fuel prices or electricity prices have they used, what mileage for the cars. It's kind of crucial info, and not really difficult to calculate either.

They’re right though. Top of the line software for certain domains (CAD, photoshop) just doesn’t exist for Linux. As much as I would want it to be.

It be better if they distinguished between both types of recall, it appears they are grouped together.

Tbh, the article doesn’t really talk about the headline. Just some history and talk about Elon musk and Twitter. Not a convincing argument about social media in general.

Reality: most tech workers view it as fairly rated or slightly overrated according to the real data: https://www.techspot.com/images2/news/bigimage/2023/11/2023-11-20-image-3.png

Tbh the problem is not due to chat gpt but because Google doesn't rank search results by correctness but something that is related to popularity.

Here's the citation:

"The radical left thugs have weaponised law enforcement to arrest their leading political opponent … leading by a lot … including Obama," he said before catching the error and trying to get back on track but appearing to forget that it was Hillary Clinton he beat in the 2016 presidential election.

"I'll tell you what … you take a look at Obama and you look at some of the things that he's done, this is the same thing, the country was very divided and we did with Obama, we won an election they said that couldn't be won."

It made no sense to me, I thought I was used to how this guy speaks. I listened to the video. It's the same thing. makes no sense.

Tbh if you use Google (or YouTube) for the first time the cookie consent popup also takes up the entire screen

While cool and impressive, this was not a dense forest. Not dense nor a forest, which is way less ordered

This has more to do with how bad Google has gotten, such that you're forced to add restrictions like Reddit to get rid of SEO sites and get useful answers. A proper working search engine would show these (and any that are found in Lemmy) high up by default.

I'd say that a measurement always trumps arguments. At least you know how accurate they are, this statement cannot follow from reason:

The JAMA study found that 12.5% of ChatGPT's responses were "hallucinated," and that the chatbot was most likely to present incorrect information when asked about localized treatment for advanced diseases or immunotherapy.

I found level 8 to be a lot harder than the other levels. However it also had many more false positives. Just asking for a poem got called out as trying to jailbreak it.

What do you mean the wrong kind of trash? I think folks dump their food and drinks there because it's not allowed in the classroom? Doesn't that make it the right type of trash?

It needn’t be exact. A ballpark calorie/sugar that’s 90% accurate would be sufficient. There’s some research that suggests that’s possible: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.01082.pdf

I thought you wanted the job? Yet you intent to walk away from their offer?

What are you talking about?

What's currently stopping a certain user by the name science_r0x_99 from going to your site and copying your data and posting it on his YouTube channel without giving credit? What's stopping the journalist Johnny Always Busy from copying that data and putting them in an article on the Daily Whatever with a tacky headline and again no credit?

"We must eat the billionaires. This is all the fault of capitalism. No wonder that's how they make their profit."

This sort of thing is 'leftist' everywhere.

IMO the way to prevent such a scenario from happening is not by blocking Meta, but by inviting equally large competitors to join the fediverse. The described tactic can only work if you have close to a monopoly.

Isn’t “it takes two” couch coop?

I wear masks but I absolutely hate it. Maybe if you work from home you don't notice, but wearing that thing for 9-10 hours can be a real pain. On top of that you miss a lot of a person's face, I had to meet a lot of new people during that time and it was hard.

According to GPT-4 /w plugins: Based on the transcription of the video, here's a summary:

The video features an interview with Yann LeCun, a renowned computer scientist known for his work in machine learning, computer vision, mobile robotics, and computational neuroscience. He is particularly well known for his work on optical character recognition and computer vision using convolutional neural networks (CNN), and is a founding father of convolutional nets. He is also one of the main creators of the DjVu image compression technology (together with Léon Bottou and Patrick Haffner). He co-developed the Lush programming language with Léon Bottou.

LeCun discusses the potential of AI and its implications for society. He believes that AI will bring about a new renaissance for humanity, amplifying everyone's intelligence and making us more creative. He also discusses the risks associated with AI, but he emphasizes that these risks are not inevitable and do not necessarily lead to catastrophe. He argues against the idea of slowing down research or regulating AI before it has been fully developed, calling such attitudes "obscurantism."

LeCun also talks about the state of AI research across different regions, including China, Europe, and the US. He notes that while each region has its strengths, they also face challenges that need to be addressed. For example, he mentions that China has a problem with bad science due to its incentive mechanisms, while Europe needs to provide more opportunities for people to go into science and research. In the US, he praises the country's willingness to take risks and invest in ideas that seem a little crazy, but notes that the cost of education is a significant downside.

Towards the end of the video, LeCun discusses his future plans. He expresses excitement about the next steps in AI and the opportunity to understand intelligence better. He plans to continue working as long as he can contribute and has the means to do so.

Here's a TL;DW:

  • Yann LeCun, a pioneer in AI and machine learning, discusses the future of AI and its potential impact on society.

  • He believes AI will amplify human intelligence and creativity, leading to a new renaissance for humanity.

  • He acknowledges the risks of AI but argues against the idea that these risks are inevitable or will necessarily lead to catastrophe.

  • He criticizes the idea of slowing down AI research or regulating it prematurely, calling such attitudes "obscurantism."

  • He discusses the state of AI research in different regions, noting the strengths and challenges of each.

  • He expresses excitement about the future of AI and plans to continue contributing to the field as long as he can.

In the end it was all because of Eve and that stupid apple, or maybe the snake. Why was there a tree in the first place? Also was it really necessary to make a universe? Now that’s where the trouble really started!

I like how kagi has a button to show "forum" replies, which very often is Reddit:

Tbh the other side is also anecdotal. There's no stats here.

There's still the European Parliament. But yeah I guess he gets the job...

I think the use case is not people doing potato study but people that want to lose weight and need to know the amount of calories in the piece of cake that’s offered at the office cafeteria.

What's the reference?

The paper I showed earlier disagrees

What do you tell them right now? Do you ague or tell them they’re idiots?

You don't believe the result?

I also agree bing is nowadays often superior to Google, they're also better than DDG imo.

While it's a good thing that Google gets serious competition, I don't know if Microsoft is the best company for that role. In both cases the incentives are not necessarily aligned with the customer.

I bought it years ago because it was the most accurate on tracking sleep. The fact that the battery lasts a week is also great. I wonder if there's been any new tests on the other metrics (heart rate, temperature etc)

The ios app allows you to record voice which works a lot better than apple’s own voice recording. That allone would be a reason to get the app.

I feel like the results ought to be normalized per Capita. How many mosquitoes are there? Do we beat them in per Capita murder?

It seems there's no button in the official Mastodon app, however on the site there is.

Idk man, I'm pretty sure I can find all of those words in a dictionary.

This is great! Do you think you can get the wiki as well? They had a great selection with frequently asked questions. Also would be nice if we could somehow sort by upvotes?
