I understand the myopic that makes this happen. Amazon gets a marquee event, and supposedly boosts its stature and hopefully drives viewership. Everything a corporate vice president wants. The Emmy organization gets the most money, that they use for⦠whatever. Win-win right?

Well, no. Viewership will drop because now people have to get an Amazon prime subscription as opposed to simply having basic cable, or (gasp!) an antenna. They wonâ(TM)t even know when it happens because they wonâ(TM)t see the ads for it on a competing network. And so what used to be yearly appointment viewing cultural touchstone dies.

What is it you think makes a thing intelligent? How would you decide if someone or something you're speaking with is intelligent or not?

>"pick up the things that deep learning based LLMs keep failing on"

For instance? I'm not asking rhetorically - I really don't know what they would fail and and humans do well at.

How do we know what a LLM scores on an IQ test?

Theyâ(TM)re literally breaking their product and then ransoming it back to you for a monthly protection fee.

Enshitification is too kind of a word

>A claim of "AGI" is a claim that the weakest of it's jagged capabilities is still stronger than that of the average human, and I don't believe we'll see that this year.

Is that a claim of AGI? I thought it's average capabilities just had to be as good as the average person.

What is it you think AGI will be able to do that the current models can't?

AGI isn't ASI. AGI just has to be as intelligent as a person, and we're at least at that point.

Yup! We've had AGI for at least 6 months now, if not longer. Anthropic and OpenAI's current models are at least as intelligent as the average person.

What year is this? Itâ(TM)s so wild that SCO is still doing this same bullshit after 30 fucking years!!!!

Jesus! I know that donâ(TM)t have anything else to do, but itâ(TM)s hard to believe that thereâ(TM)s anyone at SCO that would be willing to dust off their parentsâ(TM) failed lawsuits, but apparently there is.

Linux is already a success.

Rust is not fun. I tried it, and I hated it. Maybe you like it if you like abuse, but man. I hated it. It was the least fun I had programming in anything since OCaml.

>One could infer that the State of California thinks its citizens are dumber than the average American, and thus can't be allowed to see triangular arrows lest they draw the wrong conclusion

Or the plastics recycling was always an industry greenwashing campaign, and the vast majority of people actually do believe that sorting their plastics into a recycling bin leads to less plastic being manufactured, and this is just a move to educate the people that plastic recycling is actually a sham.

I just bought a car through them (not in Texas), and it was the easiest car buying process I've even had in my life. No haggling, no "let me talk to my manager", no upsells, and no waiting for hours in a dealership office. I will never step foot in a car dealership again,

Hey China!

When you want to fund the revolution against the Epstein plutocracy HMU!

Victory.

How can you "forget how to code"? That's like forgetting how to tie your shoes or ride a bike - I can't imagine it happening to anyone.
