Blaming Wharton School of Business for what Trump tried to do with the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario is absurd. By all accounts, he didn't learn anything in his time there and his professors didn't think highly of him. There's no way his university had anything to do with that.
Besides, lots of people graduated from Wharton. Which others, who graduated from there, suffer from Trump's derangement syndrome and a need to rename geography?
Unless you give sources, I'm going to assume you are stating your opinions rather than facts. ISTM that I've heard of a few "vibe coded" successes, though I'll admit I wasn't interested enough to either document or remember them. And lack of marketing is a sufficient explanation.
No. But I'm sure they expect there not to be many jobs in computer programming when an AI can do it cheaper than they can. And that's what's being advertised. And entry level jobs are already down.
To be fair, the Roadrunner cartoons were pretty much all the same, with differing details. Retreads aren't necessarily bad. Formulas exist because they work.
I just don't like the things I've seen in the last 40 years. (OTOH, I didn't like the movie version of "The Wizard of Oz" when I was a kid...I much preferred the book version.)
What applicable US law would any of those responsible face? Misfeasance is the only one that comes to mind, and I think that's a state level law.
If you mean the laws SHOULD criminalize and punish this kind of behavior, I agree. They don't for high military or executive branch officials. Not even after they leave office.
If they would reprocess it, much of that 3.6 million pounds would become either valuable nuclear fuel or totally inert scrap.
The rest would only last 200-500 years before becoming totally inert.
AI isn't a one trick pony. It's also not one thing, it's a bunch of things. Some are good in some areas, others are good in others. LLMs are good at predicting text...but that's only one piece of AI.
There are lots of reasons to be unhappy with AI. The weavers had good reason to fear the automated looms. But that doesn't mean it's not already more powerful than people have accepted, and it's not evidence that it isn't getting more powerful.
AGI is poorly defined hoopla, but
Well, in this case several companies haven't agreed. Of course, the one's I'm thinking of aren't US companies, and aren't currently frontier models, but they sure exist and are available.
That seems to be a different definition than the one they're talking about. It sounds like they're talking about evolutionary origins, and the "reptilian brain" metaphor is talking about function...
They probably aren't exactly all the same cells of the body.
There's also the sympathetic and parasympathetic division. Again it's separation along a *different* dimension.
You think picking someone who will fight your religious enemy is a sign that you think highly of them?
Both. Idiocy isn't all on one side, and neither is evil. And neither is self-serving action.
what's the point?
The point is to be able to use your hardware in the manner you deem appropriate, and to ensure it is not doing sneaky shit behind your back.
If, instead of a Playstation, we were talking about rooting LG televisions to run custom Linux builds stripped of pervasive privacy-violating code and "apps," I suspect your opinion might be rather different. (And no, when the entire industry has turned to the Dark Side, voting with your wallet doesn't work.)
Oh my, that's going to be easy. All I need to do is take the entire use case of phones (there's almost nothing a phone can do that someone might not want to do while using these glasses as a display), and union with all AR applications, and union with whatever applications that Meta intends to develop to attract people to the camera-less version of the glasses.
So here's a few: reading texts/emails without having to look down, following a map, playing games, surfing the web (which might include posting to Slashdot), and answering a "what is this thing I'm looking at?" query.
Who wizzed in your wheaties?
And I stand by what I said. Practically no phone that still works at all does it at the low level of a capacitor anymore.
If you teach your children to like computers and to know how to gamble then they'll always be interested in something and won't come to no real harm.
