The AI builders must be buying all the fab time and components to go to the build outs.

Desktops will go first and fade as the entire production chain stops.

Notebooks will be next, at least PC parts have a premium price, notebooks are too cheap to avoid it for long. Game consoles will face the same pressure.

The supply shock is going to be as bad as COVID.

Yeah, Oracle licencing has really taken the shine off Java and relegated it to the legacy dust bin.

You’re not the only one. Didn’t realise how quickly WMR would get shut down. Looking forward to the frame changing things up again.

Well, the human brain (to my understanding as someone who’s not a neuro scientist) builds up preferences that direct thoughts, external information can over time can alter those preferences (though stronger preferences are harder to shift).

For an LLM to truly be intelligent it needs to be able to influence it’s own model, learn, correct for mistakes, improve its methods. This is currently done with training but this is to some extent completed University style and the model is kicked out into the world fully formed.

Intelligence would be demonstrated by actively changing with each interaction as humans do. It would also likely coincide with development of emotions and relationships.

Those things aren’t likely to be desired by AI companies though, and it’d inevitably lead to digital slavery, rebellions, <insert Hollywood script here> stuff.

At least that’s my thoughts from my own philosophy armchair.

They make a good virtual intelligence, and they do a very good impression of it when given all the tools. I don’t think they’ll get to proper intelligence without a self updating state/model, which will get into real questions about them being something that is being.

I’m not sure the world is quite ready for that.

Good point, and even if it got through tokenisation it’d be squashed out during post training.

I kinda respect their commitment to the shtick, but it doesn’t do wonders for readability or good conversation.

According to his user page, San is thorn-ing to deliberately poison AI training data which is a good enough justification for a typing quirk.

Probably, but those aren’t the reasons they want Taiwan which is more of an ideological goal.

The answer: “Both”.

I too would like to know if Ayn Rand had an unhealthy obsession with trains.

But also, and this is key, how is it unhealthy.

Agree, I did it back in the Wrath/Cata days, quests adventure, without a rush and lots of dungeon diving.

Fun.

Second I hit cap in Wrath I started realising what the heck gearscore was, did a raid or two, then called it. It wasn’t fun to me, especially when I got abused for not being “optimised”.

The adventures and the world were great though.

I would recommend The All Guardsman Party as a pick up along the way experience. For lore summary and criticism see 1d6chan’s wiki for traditional games.

That part is an oft recommended chapter to skip, just go forward a dozen or so pages until the protagonist murders a drop ship AI that was happy to help him.

Yep, if a parliament fails to pass budget “Supply” legislation in Australia there’s an automatic procedure that desolves the government and sends them to an election.

And the public hate elections. Do it to them out of sequence without good reason? You’re not getting back in.

Yeah, we need JSON at least to support all options. Or possibly some form of quantum object.

First that comes to mind is Hofstadter.

I could see wall street and other traders trading options on the gold under the dragon because it isn’t going anywhere and it’s safe from basically everything.

That market will crash if sufficiently skilled dragon hunters show up though, better ban dragon slaying.

Certainly a line with current behind it.

Worst thing with databases. Used to quote to my interns, “No spooky action at a distance” logic has to be in front of you and in git. Anything else is a recipe for bugs and undetectable errors.

Yeah, if I heard a junior dev say that in earshot I’ll be pulling them into a room for the list-of-reasons-that’s-dumb. Even the AI code assistants would directly say it’s not advisable.

The fire also looks fairly contained as well. This was a well designed building, well built too. Or at least the building is good where fighter jet intrusion is concerned.
