I watched Trump's speech and Vance is looking at him with the signature Carlson "watching someone eat mayonnaise straight from the jar" stare. Would be funny if not for the circumstances.
I usually perceive these ultimatums as PR stunts to the general public, so as to not appear too strict, or to appear merciful, reasonable etc. I don't expect people to actually turn themselves over.
I wonder if Iran is simply lying (adding an extra headache to mossad: figuring out if their agents are compromised) or if the collaborators realized Iran's intelligence services are good enough to catch them. And of course some may have regretted their involvement.
I only glossed over the video because it was hard to watch, but at some point he mentions having a video on his phone where he urges Hamas to release the hostages. So I assume he was naive enough to think that the media would report this on their own
Don't want to doom too much but it certainly feels like this. Iran could get coopted or fall back to its previous diplomatic tactics of trying to play both sides (and not aligning further with China). Meanwhile the US could stop aiding Ukraine in exchange with Russia not aligning further with China/NK. And of course if Iran fails then no one will be able to stop the genocide in Palestine.
ć: A soft ty sound as in "Katya" or "feature"; occurs nearly exclusively in the combination ić at the end of family names. F Radić, Pavelić, Ranković, Milošević.
How do you expect people to know how to pronounce this without having studied the language before hand? It's a pretty stupid thing to be angry about. People are raised with native language(s) and they can't pronounce sounds or combinations of sounds not found in them without some training.
Japanese is easier to pronounce for English speakers, because it consists of simple syllables that map almost 1:1 with English ones. And people still mess up pronunciations, because of course they would, that's how languages work, unfortunately.
It also helps that some Japanese words appear in English as their phonetic pronunciation and not their literal transliteration. E.g. tofu is actually written 'toufu' in hiragana, with 'ou' being a long 'o' sound.
The one time i used the web search thing it copied and pasted stuff directly from the sources, so maybe I made some wrong assumptions about that. But limiting their replies to what exists in a given web page shouldnt be too hard
I haven't watched Black Mirror so I can't really compare.
we don’t need to accurately predict all the exact ways it will go wrong ahead of time to make a point about how capitalism interacts with technology
I agree with this, that's what I said at the part where you quoted me. But I think there should be some thought behind the satire. You could complain about:
The energy costs of running these models
People getting displaced because of new data centers using up all the water/electricity in an area
People treating LLMs as oracles
People using LLMs instead of actually learning the thing they're studying
And so on. These are more fundamental problems than a server slowdown, an LLM alarm clock or the canned "As an LLM I cannot..." response.
This is too over the top. I understand the anger towards LLMs and the market hysteria to shoehorn them anywhere ... but alarm clocks? Maybe someone will try to grift silicon valley with an idea like that, but I'm sure it won't have widespread (or any, really) success, similar to the IoT SaaS juicer.
There has been a lot of meaningful improvements in the points made in the text recently. I don't use LLMs frequently, but I used ChatGPT for something the other day and was surprised to find that it started replying instantly, and the speed of the text generation was much faster.
You can also have them reply by searching the Web first. If you do so, they will reply with sources for every claim. I assume a similar feature where they search PDFs/documentation is already in the works or released, so if we ever get to the point where we have AI assistants in cars, they will provide information based on your model only.
Also, I think we're past the point where self driving cars are so useless that they end up looping in the parking lot. I wouldn't be surprised if in 5 or 10 years they're super reliable. An older relative of mine drives an EV (not a tesla, thankfully), and he has no complaints from the assisted driving features (not fully self driving though). For example, he says that if you overstep your lane, the car gradually corrects its position.
I don't believe you have to write a satirical piece that's 100% accurate with the latest models/technology, but right now you're attacking a strawman
Don't pushups target the triceps? So you need something else for biceps. I'm gonna try and do them anyway, I already started doing planks some days ago and tested how many pushups I can do (not a lot). I guess I should start from the knees, then get a pull up bar to add some pulling to my routine
