I'm less worried about those building Skynet than I am by those that are actively building Terminator.

Many countries are building running robots. Some can run 60 mph. They can carry guns. Wars are already using automated suicide drones to do the same.

Those weapon systems are the evil we need to be worried about.. not the overglorified chat coming from tech companies.

So Grok, Claude and OpenAI all depend on MS Azure.

So when Azure had an outage, they all went down together.

Gemini outage is unconfirmed. (And probably false)

There's a 256GB model out right now. And 512GB model will come out "soon"

How about a 1TB of RAM version of the M5 Ultra?

I find the AI detectors more suspect than the Dark Web..

Snake oil is what those detectors are. Their false positive rate is huge.

Legal scammers is what they are.

Lawyers.. scamming is basically their profession.

I don't know where you went to college.. but for me, homework was where ALL my learning happened. Listening is passive. To learn the brain must engage.

How much programming did you learn by listening? Or did you learn by doing?

Math is the same.

As for "grades" people confuse why homework is graded in the first place. The main purpose is just to get you to do it. Nobody will do ungraded homework. So it's a carrot and the stick thing so that you do "your workout".

You're missing the point. Teachers can do this and make students fail in droves. But what teachers want is for students to LEARN, not to fail. The purpose of homework is not grades, but learning. The score is only there to motivate the student to actually do it.

What teachers need: an AI tutor. The AI tutor talks to the student, helps them with difficult stuff and gives them points as the students' interactions demonstrate knowledge of the subject matter. Then that becomes the homework. And the tests can be on paper and the results good.

One on one teaching is superior to classroom teaching anyway. The question is if we can leverage AI to do this.

I think debating which is better is moot.

Just build your car your way, Tesla will build theirs their way. And the results will show in the end. Clearly Tesla's option will be cheaper that could turn out to be an advantage, and Waymo's can "see" in more wavelengths which in theory could be an advantage, but the proof is in the putting. Maybe sensing isn't the defining factor in safety, maybe it is.

We'll see. Good that several companies have several approaches.

I've been tokenmaxxing Fable 5 and I have to say I'm pretty happy .. except for the fact that I'm running out of tokens too fast. I did try with Opus 5 and it's ok, but it does get confused more than Fable 5. For what I'm doing Fable gets it right sooner. But the tokens are killing me.

What i do now is make it pause until my quota resets again. But this is clunky.

maybe nuclear power plants need batteries to store their surplus! That's a win win for everyone.

I doubt that's true. People literally took a nuke to the face in Hiroshima. Then breathed in all its fallout with have lifes of minutes, or mere hours (ie. much more radioactive) and lived to a ripe old age to tell the tale.

So no. A microgram is not healthy for you. But I don't think you're "toast" if it happens.

The damage was nothing compared to the whole tsunami damage. People seem to forget the absolutely devastating tsunami that actually KILLED PEOPLE. Not to mention all the environmental mess.

Fukushima got hyped up by the media. But wasn't the biggest problem. The tsunami that caused it caused a thousand other problems.

If you have to cool it down for 10 years, it still has a LOT of energy in it.
