That’s a good point. A human author would be influenced by life in general, not just the books.

That’s a good point. A human author would be influenced by life in general, not just the books.
I’ve been thinking about that as well. If an author has bought 500 books, and read them, it’s obviously going to influence the books they write in the future. There’s nothing illegal about that. Then again, they did pay for the books, so I guess that makes it fine.
What if they got the books from a library? Well, they probably also paid taxes, so that makes it ok.
What if they pirated those books? In that case, the pirating part is problematic, but I don’t think anyone will sue the author for copying the style of LOTR in their own works.
How many pages has a human author read and written before they can produce something worth publishing? I’m pretty sure that’s not even a million pages. Why does an AI require a gazillion pages to learn, but the quality is still unimpressive? I think there’s something fundamentally wrong with the way we teach these models.
Pretty much everyone has, but that’s not the problem here. What if you don’t really want to give them a unique identification number like that? What if you don’t want them them to know you that well? What if you’re not even planning to use your real name at all.
Back in the old days, you could register an account without giving your phone number. Nowadays, pretty much all the big social medias won’t let you register an account without a number. I guess that’s not a big problem for people who don’t care about privacy, but for me that’s a total deal breaker. This means, that there’s a huge barrier to entry.
Before clicking, I already knew this would lead to NextDNS. Turns out, my experiences were quite similar. Sadly, my beloved RPI is just sitting idle these days. Maybe I’m just a bad admin, and that caused my problems. Probably…
Anyway, I really prefer to use SAAS for this purpose. You could use any DNS you like, doesn’t have to be this one. If you’re the kind of pi admin who has the time and energy, running your own pi-hole is still probably the best option though.
Message in a bottle is the way to go.
If hackers don’t know where the bottle is floating, they can’t read the message. It’s also completely disconnected from the Internet, further enhancing the already robust security. This protocol also supports all encryption methods you can fit inside the bottle. There’s no central authority, no servers, no licenses, and no EULAs to accept without reading.
The only bottlenecks are bandwidth, packet loss, and the physical dimensions of the glass container.
We are one step closer to building the AI that can determine which one is cuter: a specific photo of a kitten or one of a puppy. Just imagine what you could do with such technology!
Speak for yourself. Here in the NULL island, we’re all born on January 1st, 1970.
Here’s a bit of code that’s supposed to do stuff. I got this error message. Any ideas what could cause this error and how to fix it? Also, add this new feature to the code.
Works reasonably well as long as you have some idea how to write the code yourself. GPT can do it in a few seconds, debugging it would take like 5-10 minutes, but that’s still faster than my best. Besides, GPT is also fairly fluent in many functions I have never used before. My approach would be clunky and convoluted, while the code generated by GPT is a lot shorter.
If you’re well familiar with the code you’ve working on, GPT code will be convoluted by comparison. If so, you can ask GPT for the rough alpha version, and you can do the debugging and refining in a few minutes.
An AI can also do the job, spend the money on Netflix and watch the movies for you.
“It’s also worth reiterating that despite its name, OpenAI is a closed-source and for-profit company — while DeepSeek’s AI models are open-source.”
Smells like there’s a lawsuit just around the corner. How do you license a model as open source if the training data was stolen?
Now that’s a properly meta headline. Are you sure this wasn’t written by The Onion?
This is big news. Why isn’t everyone already talking about SIBs? Also, the 145 Wh/kg sits neatly between LFP and NMC. As long as the other properties are reasonable, it should stand a chance against NMC.
The article also mentions sodium ion batteries as an alternative. Can’t wait to see how they perform in real life.
Really? Maybe my variable names and column headers were sufficiently obscure and technical that I didn’t run into these issues about a month ago. Didn’t have any problems like that when analyzing census data in R and made Copilot generate most of the code.
Is this one of those US exclusive things?
I definitely did refer to various categories such as transgender or homosexual in the code, and copilot was ok with all of them. Or maybe that’s the code I finally ended up with after modifying it. I should run some more tests to see if it really is allergic to queer code.
Edit: Made some more code that visualizes the queer data in greater detail. Had no issues of any kind. This time, the inputs to Copilot and the code itself had many references to “sensitive subjects” like sex, gender and orientation. I even went a bit further by using exact words for each minority.
Imagine you had a relationship that turned out toxic, and then you decided to protect yourself by severing it. Later, when you even hear about X, your heart is filled with negative emotions, and you realize you need to move on.
The best I can do, is to steer it slowly. For me, it’s always been the inferior option when compared to a regular touchpad.
Although, I do se the benefit of the central positioning when you need to type more and you don’t want to move your fingers from the home row just to click something quickly.
It’s fine. Takes some time to get used to. Some people really love it, but I don’t think it’s that great.
Hasn’t Apple seriously considered the ad business in the past? I think I saw a video about it years ago. Most likely, they will switch their strategy as soon as it makes financial sense to do so.
