Last week, the agency introduced Elsa, an artificial intelligence large-language model similar to ChatGPT.
They were so close to calling it Eliza.
I for one welcome my new drug approving overlords. Hallucinations are exactly what I look for in my drugs. "Cancer cure with a side trip to rotational-verse? Yes please, and cue up extra dimensions!"
"radically increase efficiency" in examining as many as 500,000 pages submitted for approval decisions.
Reject it, status tl;dr
I don't know where this notion that Bluesky is an echo chamber comes from.
It probably came from the same place as the notion that Twitter is an echo chamber.
Why does it seem like big tech is always doing more harm than good?
Because twisting the facts to fit that narrative generates clicks.
So far it's done far more harm than good in my opinion.
Yet, here you are, posting on the Internet using technology created by Big Tech.
One solution is to go to grad school and hope the job market is better in two years when you get your MS.
politically we seem to think that any regulation of AI deployment must be illegal.
No, not illegal. Just stupid and counterproductive.
Regulating AI just means that AGI will happen elsewhere, most likely in authoritarian China.
This is false. Python has 3rd party libraries that handle numbers well. Those libraries are not Python
Python has built-in support for arbitrary precision integers by default, with no 3rd party libraries needed.
In Python, you can precisely calculate 100 factorial with a default installation. You can't do that with C++, Java, or Rust.
STEP 1 - Build a company so pernicious that what Palantir would kill for you get willingly from billions of people.
STEP 2 - After having established your brand, change it to a really really stupid name. I like Neil Stephenson's 1992 Metaverse. Mark Zuckerberg's neuro-diverse (ha ha!) version is just a stupid name. One day someone will explain to him what "meta" means.
STEP 3 - AI? SUPER-AI? SUPER-AGURI AI?
STEP 4 - PROFIT
h/t Southpark: What's Step 3 again? Nobody knows.
Look for example at an MRT scan. Without AI you couldn't navigate through it, because it would be just a bunch of a few thousand images.
You literally can navigate it as image slices. I don't even know why you think that's hard.
Abortions were illegal, but not a dilation and curettage (D&C)
Oh. Now I realize why you never hear about D&C anymore. Seems at one time it was a lot more common.
Sex outside of marriage clearly leads to the spread of quite a lot of disease
You don't even need to have sex. You just need to kiss, or
