I dunno, I think, though it's pure speculation, but isn't it the other way around? birds do most of their lives on their feet, sitting and waiting or hopping and eating worms. it's when they're in flight that they zonk out and, i think i heard once a long time ago, they sleep in flight? (?!) so their reaction time is really because they're just watching all the time either in trees or on the ground.

Interesting and solid advice. Not that a large percentage of customers were to follow it, but if they were to take your advice, I wonder the effect on advertisements would be. Likely advertisers would pay less, and providers would charge customers more. They'd pay less because they don't have a determined and reliable pool of audience. C'est la vie

i wonder how difficult it would be for a robot to wield a pencil and write a paragraph? bonus points for neuro-kinetic hookups (like the ones that have the patient playing chess via thought)

you know what would be an easy fix? equip waymos with a hand-held remote control unit that first responders can get to and drive the car. there are problems with this approach, of course, like waymo would probably have to remotely OK such a problem. still, seems like a pretty handy tool

hm, i wonder if google tracks all the data for the individual student. then it constructs an AI avatar built on data from your student career throughout, that is 'aware' of your scholastic interests and optimized for it.

Curious, so i'll ask: what happens when LLMs are fed other AI data, in this case Tilly Norwood's 'interviews.' Also does the AI persona get credit if they write a script? What about casting? Can the AI persona cast the scripts that they write as well?

weekend afternoon? check | no or slow news? check | parallel to sundry politics? check ------------- weekend form of slashvertisement!

If one christmas light in a chain goes out, the rest stay on? Then a kill switch is a very bad idea, right? What about something like, a fuse where if a datarate transfer is exceeeded, the fuse flips and the modem or whatever goes out. i'm clearly out of my league here.

Just wanted to point out, whether intentional or not, that that quote by the LA Times alludes to a george lucas creation.

All right, Physics, are you trying to say the dark side is stronger?

So, he's charged with destroying evidence for a crime he may or may not have committed. Put in that light, maybe innocent until proven guilty doesn't apply here. But even calling it "evidence" sets up the bias. Destroying data for possible crime is a way to put it, but then that seems like minority report. The other point is that like, I'd argue a defense that it wasn't me 'protecting' or 'destroying' anything--it was preemption of possible viruses or what-have-you loaded onto the phone out of his person.

So Citizens United in effect argued corporations should have privileges humans enjoy (donating cash to campaigns). What about data centers? I mean, individual data centers, outside of ownership? The thinking goes: the US invested/invests in these data centers and has a stake in AI-producing companies, who in turn depend on data centers. Clip the data centers and you clip AI, so they are national importance, on par with the corporations above them.

Economics: export/import -> fiscal policy -> cultural corporate products (Microsoft, apple, GE, etc) And above is a class of artificial intelligence software writhing through and over, and encompassing, these forces, impacting them, I wonder, how?

You know what isn't a bad idea is a requirement that to obtain a driver's license, you must first pass a (simple) video game. The game doesn't have to be difficult--you want to go from A to B? Do it on the video game and show how it's done.

I had a hard time figuring out where the problem was because the summary left out the detail that ai-training on books destroys them without saving the data (the book lettering, i guess) in the process. That's a big detail to leave out. I mean, I don't know if I have an issue if it's otherwise--that, during the course of it, the books are digitized and made available. But that's something that I can understand people would argue against, i.e., they believe the loss of a physical copy of a rare book is something to avoid. Totally understandable. However, isn't a valid counteragument that the bookseller's prerogative whether to sell a book or not?
