It may not “understand” like a human, but it can synthesize in a way that mimics — and sometimes even surpasses — human creativity.
Calling it a “stochastic parrot” is like calling a jazz musician an “audio repeater” because they’re using notes they’ve heard before. It misses the creativity in the combination — the generative power that lies within the latent space.
It reads like the brainless drivel that corporate drones are forced to churn out, complete with meaningless fluff words. This is why the executives love AI, they read and expect that trash all the time and think it’s suitable for everything.
Executives are perfectly content with what looks good at a cursory glance and don’t care about what’s actually good in practice because their job is to make themselves seem more important than they actually are.

I remember reading about this years ago. It’s so cool seeing it being used successfully in a patient! Technology like this makes me feel better about the future.

I’m excited to see more competition! I also like how RISC-V is based on open source work which reduces startup costs and opens up greater collaboration. We’ve all benefited greatly from open source software, so it would be nice to see more of that on the hardware side as well. I’ll be shocked if the chip actually competes on performance, though it may be more of a cost-for-performance deal like ARM. Speaking of which, I wonder how it’ll compare with ARM server processors as well.

This isn’t extensive, but when looking up products on amazon through camelcamelcamel that existed in 2023 and now, the trend matches up:
SSDs were even cheaper until memory manufacturers decided it was getting too cheap: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ssds/ssd-prices-predicted-to-skyrocket-throughout-2024
They predicted prices would go higher and, through the magic of intentionally constricting supply, it happened. Prices still have not dropped back down to where they were in 2023.
Just wait until they come out with DDR4 SAM.
It’d be a decent deal now, but this launches in 2027, by which point this would be underwhelming.
It’s not mutually exclusive. Laws are wielded as weapons all the time.
Stick to SEARCH, not making shit up (euphemistically called “hallucinating”).
This only makes me want to pirate Nintendo games.
3·1 month agoMonster Bash! It was one of the better-playing platformers on the PC back in the day and I loved the halloween aesthetic.
You know what? They should be broken up even harder.
Billionaires do not work for anyone but themselves. Billionaires, the parasites that they are, will attach themselves to whoever they can suck off, and then abandon the host to die off when they’ve taken all they can. He is looting what he can from the US and selling out the rest to Russia and anyone else who is willing to pay him. There is no such thing as enough for billionaires, this is their mental illness.
I was surprised to see that both left and right joycons have the mouse functionality. Was cool to see it in action with the wheelchair basketball game.
