VR is guaranteed flop unless they can make a headset under 100 grams, 4K per eye, and 120 fps. If it can't be done, VR can't be done. If the laws of physics prevent it, the laws of physics prevent VR. Even Meta's future headset, Phoenix, may flop because although it is (supposedly) 75 grams it will likely be a mere 2.5K and only achieve 90 fps. Of course when it fails they will claim the VR concept itself isn't wanted by consumers rather than blame their stupid implementation. Don't even attempt to make a VR headset if your concept can't do a minimum of 4K per eye (ideally 8K per eye @ 120 degree FoV) and 100 grams (ideally 50 or less -- normal sunglasses weigh 20 grams) and 120 fps.

I've had one for some time, but literally NOBODY believes how well it works .. not until a test drive or two. I'm surprised a bunch of idiots didn't reply you saying "omg, its not really driving itself .. you're supervising it" ..or that you're intervening but your brain deletes it from your memory. Slashdot luddites in particular are adamant that cars can never drive themselves -- there are too many "variables".

This unionization was probably sponsored and paid for by Waymo and Tesla since this will accelerate Uber and Lyft moving to robotaxis. Congratulations!

So? One can change.

They are calling for regulation because they want to protect their own monopoly and block new entrants. They must fear the open models or something. We know the pharmaceuticals played the same game such that it's impossible for a startup to develop and bring to market a new drug without the "help" of a giant existing player. In the case of pharmaceuticals the $2 billion per approval price tag virtually guarantees no paradigm shifting ideas will receive funding due to fear of it failing in late stage clinical trial.

Established AI companies want to block open, domain specific, or models created via distillation from joining the party. They want to be sure no more AI companies can emerge, the only way to make certain of that is with a mountain of government regulation and uncertainty.

Appealing to the Supreme Court is dumb. The easiest, and 100% guaranteed, path out of prison for him is to start praising the POTUS. Praise all his policies, hate and blame all his opponents. Openly offer him a blow job, and pledge a large monetary donation.

But it can diagnose it. If you believe that it can, you have a brain injury.

But not as the Doom guy.

To be fair, I think most people are just token predictors.

Politicians, then "influencers"?

Come on they could have said something milder and presidential like "you've got to grab it by the pussy".

OK, which was it .. coma, or were you frozen in a block of ice?

What's the over/under on when AI's first straight up murder occurs?

How is OpenAI morally right?!?

Best case for OpenAI is that they heard rumours that a researcher was closing in on a NS breakthrough using a specific method, so they instantly set a team on the problem giving them with a massive amount of resources. Their internal team then specifically guided the model to use the same very specific direction the researchers was using, something they (nor the model) would ever have known to do without the rumours. A detail that OpenAI conveniently left out of the narrative.

And that's the best case scenario. The worst case is that because the researcher was using ChatGPT to work on drafts of the paper and those drafts ended up in the training data for the model. So rather than discovering anything the agents just implemented / finished off the work they already had access to.

It's insanely sketchy. The NYU researcher is honestly being extraordinarily calm about the whole thing, typically in a situation like this people would be getting close to a fist fight.

You copied my idea of having the word slashdot in your username without compensation or warning? Say it is not so!
