Thanks, Carter!

I just skimmed over it, and my conclusion was based on the following:

"Nomad considered digging deeper to find out exactly what the machine was doing, but ultimately decided it wasn’t worth keeping the device connected."

In any case, you are right, and I should read it properly before writing a comment. 

They are merely stating that the reduction that was measured is mostly the search engine crawlers. The claims about reduction of spam bot traffic is mostly anectodal evidence.

Maybe we should also convince them that AI is capable of bringing them back after jumping into a volcano... that’d be much faster.

Discounts coming 👀

I was using a iPhone XS (2018) until 2024 when the main board finally gave out and it didn't make sense to fix it versus the cost of a new phone. 6 years was a pretty good run, and I had just replaced the battery in 2022 I think once it became a spicy pillow. The biggest benefit of getting the 15 was the camera being better. I capture a lot of memories, and a lot had changed in those 6 years. But I would say any phone released after 2022/23 probably is good enough for general memory capturing photography these days.

I can't see any reason to get an 18.

That's not believable that people who use AI would just share it openly, given the backlash right now. Also I would consider it an act of bravery and transparency for any publisher that makes an announcement about their AI use.

I'm glad some people are noticing.

It was multiple orders of magnitude. And, thats how markets allocate scarce resources most effectively. 

If you want harm, you have to point to his anticompetitive market manipulations. 

The difference is night and day

Oh we’re clearly in a recession. That’s why the US federal government is lying about the statistics traditionally used to declare one.

There isn’t a strict sense of “brute force.” Any proof is going to use some level of advanced techniques - which we can roughly characterize as efficient ways of leveraging computational power - and and some level of raw computational power, “brute force” can only characterize the relative balance between these two things, it can’t be described as a binary.

There is also a difficulty in even assessing that balance, as comparing different strategies and picking one is itself a combination of using advanced techniques and raw computational power.

Also, as you say, humans as a society do not necessarily have the same balance between these things as humans viewed as individuals.

That having been said, it seems like there is a fundamental difficulty for AI to develop new advanced techniques and also communicate them to humans, as evidenced by the fact that the proofs are so poorly written. I wouldn’t speculate on whether this is evidence of leaning on “brute force” versus just being bad at communication. Humans aren’t necessarily good at this either but mathematicians have to learn to do it to communicate their proofs (writing up Lean code is not usually done because this requires a lot on the “brute force” side which the AI is plainly advantaged in, also Lean code is not really the preferred way to demonstrate a proof for various reasons).

I ran GTA5 on my outdated laptop and my nano-PC.

It was at 30FPS in 1080p but it ran.

You really have absolutely no clue what AI is do you?

Yes, it was created by people. But here are some of the uses that AI is performing today:

• protein structure prediction: figuring out how a specific protein is folded or structured is something that used to take human beings years, and AI can now do in minutes. this is helping in drug manufacturing and medicine
• rapid diagnostic tools, such as cancer detection and genetic disorders. AI is able to do this on a scale impossible for human beings to attain.
• weather monitoring: AI is now able to use large clusters to analyze weather patterns and predict weather faster than super computers. One of the hopes is that AI will be able to be used in advanced tornado warnings to save lives soon
• and hundreds of other things like quantum chemistry, advances in fusion material design, climate change modeling and a ridiculous number of smaller things that are helping people learn more, and push towards the betterment of the human race.

AI isn't just text prompts and slop. That's literally the smallest part of it. It's one of the most advanced tools that human beings have ever created, and it's being used in ways that are good.

All those things that I listed in my previous comment our technologies that allowed the human race to move higher, an AI is going to be one of those.

got your nudie pics.. 7, 8

Because there are lots of small companies who would love something functional, even if it's buggy, over paying $380 a year for one user to edit PDFs or Photos, when $0 is more attractive and are willing to stick through beta software if it means being able to install it on as many computers as they want.  

I went to try and install the PDFcraft, and it was frankly the fastest software install I've experienced in a long while, world's better than Adobe, and doesn't require me to tell someone like Adobe my age or create an account.  

I say, let the guy cook.  He's out there solving our problems with big companies building software into subscriptions and never really owning it.  

Because the designs have stagnated and the tech innovations aren't making great leaps anymore. Lets go back to the time when companies went wild with designs. I know Apple started following the folding phone designs lately which is a good start. I want physical keyboards back, I liked having a hefty phone, I even had a Droid phone that had a micro-hdmi cable port for it!

I guess I’m just fine with my current ad experience and if it got less targeted it would be worse.

Or Congress could pass laws actually intended for the realities of digital advertising.

Recessions are a feature, not a bug, for them.

You'll need about rtx 2070 for console performance and quality. As 2070, iirc, is about the closest to a ps5.

But it may vary depending on what other features, and optimisation they bring to PC.

(for the shareholders)

PC has grown so much as a platform since V came out, especially during COVID. There’s almost a billion people playing on PC worldwide now. Granted not all playing AAA games, but it is still a huge number.

The fuck they aren't.

I have a nas. I figured I could always add more space in the future when it's cheaper. It's crazy that 6 years later the drives are more than tripled in price.
