It's so dumb you don't get badge progress on custom difficulty. Pilgrim? No problem? Loper without cabin fever? Sorry, too easy for progression.

Yesss. Especially for treats. Don't waste 2/3 of your calories for 1/10th the happiness.

Only if you'd be born stateless. If you're born with Canadian citizenship, you don't get Chinese citizenship.

Pakistan: More boys subjected to sexual abuse than girls in six months in Punjab: report by Master_Effective_206 in worldnews

The primary consideration is whether you're human or not. Not many sex pest hippos out there.

Things aren't always simple. There can be many factors that affect something. What I'm getting at is that not much can be done about "proximity and availability" without putting kids into a bubble, so it's not useful except to hand wave the problem. If there's something saying the other factors are irrelevant, then sure, but just because something is the #2 biggest factor doesn't mean it's ignorable.

I haven't played Satisfactory in a few years, but did the end game ever get more complex? The higher tiers were just more belts and inputs and tediously slow/expensive recipes. I'm thinking more like cracking circuits or kovarex in factorio.

2 authors say OpenAI 'ingested' their books to train ChatGPT. Now they're suing, and a 'wave' of similar court cases may follow. by [deleted] in technology

[–]FluffyToughy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The claim "we don't how much and how well a specific book is trained" is fine. Even OpenAI doesn't know. The claim "we don't know that the entire internet isn't in there" is not, though.

Your exact reply to

It doesn't store every entire book and/or word on the internet

Do you know that for a fact?

You're moving the goal posts now acting like this was your point all along. This discussion was not about one specific book. It's about all books.

When you find the algorithm that compresses 45TB of text into 500GB let me know. In fact, let the rest of the CS community know too because you'll save everyone a lot of time and money, thanks.

Yes. Because that's not how neural networks work and I doubt they have 40TB of VRAM to put all that data in.

The size of the neural network (the model) is orders of magnitude smaller than the data it was trained on. There just isn't enough space to store everything.

What can happen for isolated cases is the network gets really really good at making something that's usually "close enough" to (but not necessarily exactly) something it trained on. This would require the input being duplicated many many times in the training set (e.g. a popular song lyric).

But you still don't get around the compression problem here. The amount of stuff the AI can learn is still limited by the size of the network.

And on top of the physical continuity, there's also a like experiential continuity. If you copy your brain into a robot, it's easy to think of it as a copy -- you're still the real you, no matter what the robot thinks. But what if the original brain is destroyed at the exact same time, so there's only ever 1 copy of your consciousness alive at once? Is the robot "real" now?

If not, then teleporters are just fancy suicide machines.

Anyone leave a role because you racked up too much tech debt? by iMimzy in ExperiencedDevs

[–]FluffyToughy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do we see airliners crash every few days? Or space launches?

Tech debt doesn't mean your service crashes every day. It could just mean increased maintenance cost.

Besides, a website for posting baking videos hosted by kittens in funny hats doesn't kill people in a fiery explosion when it goes down.

Valve says AI-generated content policy goal is "not to discourage the use of it on Steam" by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]FluffyToughy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you've been given a false impression of what a real AI assisted workflow would look like. Midjourney is a cute toy for pretty pictures, but it's not a workflow.

Keep in mind the technology only started exploding for the general public in the last few months. It's got a long way to go. Nobody wants low effort AI-generated shovelware clogging up steam.

just an algorithm

If you were the CEO of a large media corporation, and you decided that specific policies were better for your bottom line, would you not even consider manipulating content visibility in order to push your agenda? And if not you, because you may not be the kind of selfish sociopath that becomes the CEO of a large media corporation, do you think others wouldn't either?

I agree that not every single thing you see is hand crafted by some shadowy cabal but there absolutely are influential people with agendas.

I always love how uppity taller people get about about short peoples' weight. Good luck on your goals, friend.
