  • That sounds like juice with fine pulp

  • Is that web weaver from the boys?

  • We can’t fix the environment now, we have to fix the man made economic disaster that happens every 5-10 years

    /s

  • Would that really make your life better?

    Thinks back to all the Luigi memes

    Actually, never mind

  • That comment’s argument had a “states rights” kind of vibe

  • I never understood this, maybe they just need the money that badly or are outright threatened.

    Why would you believe they would give you money once you’re out of their country. You are no longer their problem.

  • If I were a betting man, I would bet the number of Mario cart related violence is more than 0

  • That last one is wild to me.

    If someone asked their AI something and unintentionally worded it awkwardly making the chatbot go off the rails, they might ban you for that.

    Like doesn’t that just show how underbaked their chatbot is?

  • And what’s great about it is that it’s a positive sum game, you being a data dragon only ensures it’s easier for others (seeding and it becoming a trend).

  • That’s fair.

    I fully agree that ML can help in niche ways but yeah I would just say we have another tool in the toolbox not that we are dead set on huge changes in the coming years.

  • Edgy teenagers were onto something

  • Sigh, what’s the definition of milk?

    Edit:

    1. A whitish liquid containing proteins, fats, lactose, and various vitamins and minerals that is produced by the mammary glands of all mature female mammals after they have given birth and serves as nourishment for their young.

     

    1. The milk of cows, goats, or other animals, used as food by humans.

     

    1. Any of various potable liquids resembling milk, such as coconut milk or soymilk.

    It mentions coconut milk specifically

  • IMO piracy and self hosting has great cost benefits.

    Sure it costs money to buy a mini computer and a hard drive, but after, you can spend a long time building that library and it won’t cost you a dime.

    And the computer and hard drive is more like an asset, you don’t really lose money when you buy it.

    And it kind of pays you back, eventually you get a little tired of building your library but then you can use said library and integrate it into your lifestyle while you get a new obsession.

  • As someone who has historically not been a fan, details like this is the way to win me over.

    That and Andor (+ rogue one).

  • That’s great to hear.

    But genome and protein sequencing has been getting easier for the last few decades for a number of reasons. While it sounds like ML is contributing positively, idk if I would call this revolutionary.

    Is there anything new the average person has access to today that they didn’t have before?

    IMO revolutions are like: I have a computer in my pocket that has thousands of times more power than the best ones a few decades ago.

    While I would love to see a revolution in medical science, I have yet to see it (maybe I’m just uninformed). We are getting close to designer babies but I would argue that’s more like social media than the internet in terms of benefits to society.

  • From the article:

    Early warning systems also rely on rapid communication to the public, including mass alerts communicated by mobile phone, coordination by the relevant authorities across borders, clear advice, and advance evacuation plans and occasional alarm tests or drills.

    How do we know that the improvements isn’t from better communication instead of better prediction systems?

    I might have missed it but the article doesn’t talk about how many lives saved can be attributed to AI, just that tsunami response has gotten better.

  • went to super compute this year and went to a talk about using machine learning/AI for tsunami detection

    Thanks for the example.

    So although I do agree this is a good thing, I wouldn’t call it revolutionary. If a tsunami is predicted, knowing a day or two earlier isn’t going to revolutionize response, it would help but it’s not in the same scale as being able to give live updates via the internet vs the speed or a newspaper.

  • AI as a whole is very much on the level of usefulness of an engine or the Internet.

    Right so that’s what I’m kind of challenging here. What can machine learning do today that we couldn’t do without it.

    I fully understand how you could have weather prediction models that might outperform traditional algorithms, but it would need waaay more power and the gain is a small increment instead of a difference of magnitude.

    Remember those pictures in PC magazines from the 90s that showed how much data can be stored in a single CD vs paper? What’s the ML equivalent of that?

  • While I fully agree with him politically on this issue.

    Anyone else doubts all these claims?

    Before the dot com bubble popped, you could do online banking, send emails, buy stuff online and order pizza on a website. The speed was just very slow.

    Today, the only applications of AI are either really evil (surveillance tech) or just sub par compared to the traditional method.

    Email was superior to mail for most cases, and AI summery, art or code is pretty much always inferior to the human (or even algorithmic) version.

    IMO this is far closer to crypto, which didn’t go away but hasn’t revolutionized shit except scams.

    I’m guessing AI will just revolutionize surveillance, can’t see it do anything else “better”.

    Edit: some great responses but I would like to clarify, I get how ML can make somethings better, the issue is that’s it’s incremental, whereas the internet was orders of magnitude. What is the ML equivalent of this (sorry to use Gates):
