DeepSeek is designing a tensor processor. The instruction set is very simple. Mostly just lots and lots of parallelized low-precision multiply-and-accumulate.

LLMs and humans are both unreliable, but make different mistakes.
Use one to check the other.
Disclaimer: I have used Mechanical Turk many times, but not recently.
Maybe people that have "younger brains" are much more likely to be in the group that has learned another language recently?
Except the summary says that earlier acquisition is more effective than learning "recently".
Most children don't learn a second language by choice, but because they are in a multilingual environment. My daughter is bilingual because from birth to age 10 she shared a bedroom with her monolingual Mandarin-speaking grandmother.
I had an RPN calculator in high school, so that made learning Japanese much easier.
When I was in the military, I was deployed to the Western Pacific. I learned Japanese and Tagalog so I could talk to girls.
these employees will choose the tools in their approved tool box
Of course they will.
Clients need to do their research, choose the tool they want, and then choose the consultant to help them implement it.
That's the way it works. Microsoft isn't the right partner to help you implement a solution based on Google Gemini. Duh.
Or this could be an example of Jevons Paradox .
As AI makes employees more productive, and thus more profitable, would you fire them or hire more?
People who think Trump is the stupidest possible don't know about Ron DeSantis.
The military budget is literally a blank check.
It is figuratively a blank check, which is the opposite of "literally".
Has it ever decreased?
Many times. The late 1940s. After the Vietnam War. The "Peace Dividend" after the USSR's collapse, etc.
Management would be a good application for AI.
AI isn't trying to get promoted and doesn't need four-hour status meetings twice a week.
I ask myself why schools don't just start an hour later
Because parents have to go to work, and after-school programs have a set schedule.
Of course, employers and after-school programs could also adjust their start times for the seasons, and we could agree to switch those start times on the same day.
But that's just reimplementing DST.
How often do we encounter endangered bird embryos that lack eggshells?
I can see how this technology might be used to revive extinct species, but the claim that it helps endangered species is nonsense.
That people are using examples from three years ago is pretty good evidence.
Republicans shut up about states rights.
Republicans have always been hypocritical about states' rights.
Abortion was a states' rights issue until RvW was overturned, and suddenly they wanted a national ban.
They want the Feds to overturn state-level pot legalization, ban sanctuary cities, etc.
a few lawyers have been sanctioned for using AI to create briefs. On the surface, the briefs seemed fine but the cases cited did not exist or was not related to the case.
That was three years ago, which is an eon in AI terms.
There have been vast advances since then.
At the source of every error which is blamed on the computer you will find at least two human errors, including the error of blaming it on the computer.
