  • A US scientist has brewed up a storm by offering Britain advice on making tea

  • You could easily over steep it if you microwave it with the bag in it, but if you're just boiling water it shouldn't make a difference, other than being inefficient vs a kettle.

  • They warned you: Someone allegedly used a politician's cloned voice to interfere with an election | It will most assuredly not be the last time this happens

  • I mean I'm not sure if it's Russians or Russian puppets.

  • I already have to send photos of my id or passport for all kinds of services, so it wouldn't really be that different from doing that, just less inconvenient. Like, delivery services ask for a photo of your id.

  • Dunno if this is domestic or not. Would be hard to do anything if it's a foreign attack.

  • It being the future of computer interfaces is bullshit. I enjoy it as a novelty but Zuckerberg bet on it as the "next big thing", on par with the Internet.

  • Computer scientist shows how to tamper with Georgia voting machine, in election security trial: “All it takes is five seconds and a Bic pen.”

  • In California we have electronic voting machines that are basically glorified printers. You go through the vote flow, then it prints your ballot and you can verify it's correct before it goes in the ballot box. All the upside of electronic voting and none of the downsides. Since it's printed consistently it's easier to electronically count as well without mistakes that can happen from scanning hand filled ballots. Even human vote counters can mistakenly read a hand filled ballot.

  • They'll have made that back several times over in the time it took them to send them the fee

  • It'd be way easier to just grow brains instead

  • It's emulating a ridiculously simplified brain. Real brains have orders of magnitude more neurons, but beyond that they already have completely asynchronous evaluation of those neurons, as well as much more complicated connecting structure, as well as multiple methods of communicating with other neurons, some of which are incredibly subtle and hard to detect.

    To really take AI to the next level I think you'd need a completely bespoke processor that can replicate those attributes in hardware, but it would be a very expensive gamble because you'd have no idea if it would work until you built it.

  • VR and Crypto were bullshit, but AI is the real deal. On a side note I find it hilarious that out of the three options, Zuckerberg bet billions on the two wrong options. Unfortunately the rich have so much power that they can make catastrophic mistakes and still have plenty of money to finally bet on the right one.

  • I think it's better explained as a search engine that works at the word level of granularity. It lets you do a word level search of all written human knowledge which allows it to adapt to your specific prompt. It's the next step in searching knowledge based. First we had libraries, then document search, now it's word search. I think it'll be impactful on the same level as the creation of libraries and search engines.

  • And document search is just a glorified library 🙄

  • I love their original idea. Having your brainpower sapped and also being part of a collective dream that creates the world around you is such a cooler and more philosophical idea.

  • LLMs are a specific application of neutral networks which utilize machine learning.

  • I use it for debugging all the time and while it making mistakes is not uncommon it's still way better than trying to manually search through spotty documentation.

    It's also really great at doing basic automation tasks. Sometimes I'd write up throw away scripts to process some data, but with its code interpreter it can write those for me and for simple tasks I don't even need to check what it wrote since it's obvious when it did it correctly.

  • Apple’s biggest critics are big mad about the new 27 percent App Store tax

    Jump

  • Apple forces all browsers on iOS to use Safari Web views, and Safari has the worst web bugs. I wouldn't be surprised if that was on purpose.

  • Nightshade, the free tool that ‘poisons’ AI models, is now available for artists to use

  • I still wouldn't call it stealing, but I guess "broke open source code licenses" doesn't have the same impact, but I'd prefer accuracy.
