  • Thats actually a feature to warn you about totally understandable misconception about using the car as a submarine. psychological-missuse-suppression its called and Its included for free in the premium price plan. It may also activate when using offbrand cleaning products to warn you into using the real thing.

  • My beautiful child...
  • Amen! (sorry i couldn’t stop myself.)

    I haven’t identified as Christian since reading the bible and realizing god is portrayed as some fucked up attention craving psycho.

    But fictional Jesus is like the OG embodiment of woke. He doesn’t need to be real for the philosophy to be. If only more people followed his literal example.

  • Season 1 (Series 14) Episode 5: "Dot and Bubble"
  • I am also very confused about the slug part because the dot is supposedly killing in alphabetical order. Yet the dot was going to have her walk into a slug in the elevator a while before her name was up.

    Apparently this entity cares so much about the alphabet it stopped targeting her to go after the september guy so what gives?

    Someone theorized the slugs may hold you and kill you off when its your time but the list the dr uses to realize its in alphabetical time isn't time of death, its time of disappearance. These slugs do capture on video so If people cant have been alive inside a slug without anyone or themselves noticing.

  • Stone Rule
  • Maybe it drove headlines where you are but for me its a first i hear of it.

    Yet everyone is talking about Stonehenge.

    100% agree though activism needs more clear messaging.

  • Stone Rule
  • I see what you mean. I agree people need much more tangible details about how climate change is already effecting them and will affect us in the future. As well as the sheer out of proportion footprint of for profit industry.

    But even if you where to communicate the details, people would still need to care to listen. The most effective path is probably a bit of both, radical action to turn heads but also have those actions carrying a more directly explicit message other then "acknowledge us" .

  • Ex-OpenAI star Sutskever shoots for superintelligent AI with new company
  • No need to clarify what you meant with the oligarchs theres barely any exaggeration there. Ghouls is quite accurate.

    Considering the context of a worst case possible scenario (hostile takeover by an artificial superior) which honestly is indistinguishable from general end of the world doomerism prophecies but very alive in the circles of Sutskeva i believe safe ai consistent of the very low bar of

    “humanity survives wile agi improves the standards of living worldwide” of course for this i am reading between the lines based on previously aquired information.

    One could argue that If ASI is created the possibilities become very black and white:

    • ASI is indifferent about human beings and pursues its own goals, regardless of consequences for the human race. It could even find a way off the planet and just abandon us.

    • ASI is malaligned with humanity and we become but a. Resource, treating us no different then we have historically treated animals and plants.

    • ASI is aligned with humanity and it has the best intentions for our future.

    For either scenario it would be impossible to calculate its intentions because by definition its more intelligent then all of us. Its possible that some things that we understand as moral may be immoral from a better informed perspective, and vice versa.

    The scary thing is we wont be able to tell wether its malicious and pretending to be good. Or benevolent and trying to fix us. Would it respect consent if say a racist refuses therapy?

    Of course we can just as likely hit a roadblock next week and the whole hype dies out for another 10 years.

  • Wasps
  • TIL wasps kill spiders, (i looked it up). They are now my best friends. Wasps everywhere please. Genocide the spiders!!!

    Wait then were gonna get mosquitoes…..

    I am starting to feel like maybe we should just let nature alone because it knows best.. NAH, now that would be silly /s

  • Wasps
  • Maybe i am just naïve but cant we just breed a fuckton of bumble and other more friendly bees to release around neighborhoods so to suppress wasp populations around humans.

    Do wasps carry a role that cant be done by a different pollinator?

    I get that we should strive for maximum bio diversity but the wasps where i live will literally land and crawl over your face. I can just about hold my breath and handle that, my kid cannot.

  • Economics
  • The product isn't total compute, Its reliable compute for a measuring device.

    Still no excuse but pretty industry standard. The production costs for an iphone 6 where about a 100 bucks but sold for 8 times as much.

  • Ex-OpenAI star Sutskever shoots for superintelligent AI with new company
  • No i applaud a healthy dose of skepticism.

    I am everything but in favor of idolizing silicon valley gurus and tech leaders but from Sutskeva i have seen enough to know he is one of the few to actually pay attention to

    Artificial Super intelligence or ASI is the step beyond AGI (artificial general intelligence)

    The later is equal or better in capacity to a real human being in almost all fields.

    Artificial Super intelligence is defined (long before openai was a thing) as transcending human intelligence in every conceivable way. At which point its a fully independent entity that can no longer be controlled or shutdown.

  • Ex-OpenAI star Sutskever shoots for superintelligent AI with new company
  • Your entitled to that opinion, so are others. Sutsekeva may be an actual loony.. or an absolute genius. Or both, that isn't up to debate here.

    I am just explaining what this about because if you think this is “just another money raiser” you obviously havent paid enough attention to who this guy is exactly.

    Super intelligence in Artificial intelligence is a wel defined term btw, in case your still confused. You may have seen them plaster on stuff like buzzwords but all of these definitions precede AI hype of last years.

    ML = machine learning, algorithms that improve over time.

    AI = artificial intelligence, machine learning with complex logic, mimicking real intelligence. <- we are here

    AGI = artificial general intelligence. An Ai agent that functions intelligently at a level indistinguishable from a real human. <- expert estimate this will be archived before 2030

    ASI = Artificial Super Intelligence Agi that transcends human intelligence and capacities in every wat.

    It may not sound real to you but if you ever visited the singularity sub on reddit you will see how a great number of people do.

    Also everything is science fiction till its not. Horseless chariots where science fiction so where cordless phones. The first airplane went up in 1903, 66 years later we landed in the moon.

  • Ex-OpenAI star Sutskever shoots for superintelligent AI with new company
  • Our singular focus means no distraction by management overhead or product cycles, and our business model means safety, security, and progress are all insulated from short-term commercial pressures.

    This is the guy who turned against Sam for being to much about releasing product. I don't think he plans on delivering much product at all. The reason to invest isn't to gain profit but to avoid losing to an apocalyptic event which you may or may not personally believe, many Silicon Valley types do.

    A safe Ai would be one that does not spell the end of Humanity or the planet. Ilya is famously obsessed with creating whats basically a benevolent AI god-mommy and deeply afraid for an uncontrollable, malicious Skynet.

  • Ex-OpenAI star Sutskever shoots for superintelligent AI with new company
  • There are very little people in the world that understand llms on such a deep technological level as Ilya.

    I honestly don’t think there is much else in the world he is interested in doing other then work on aligning powerful ai.

    Wether his almost anti commercial style end up accomplishing much i don't know but his intention are literal and clear.

  • TIL most cultures and peoples all over the world have historically had trouble recognizing the color blue
  • Clickbait be clickbait and half the site is probably ai generated. I wont defend the hyperbole.

    Theres is a debate you can have to what attributes to seeing in relation to perception. Our mind has a lot of tricks to get around the restrictions of our eyes.

    Its a shame how enshitification erodes this conversation.

  • TIL most cultures and peoples all over the world have historically had trouble recognizing the color blue
  • Its not about wavelength but about peoples ability to perceive and distinguish.

    Blue is a rare pigment in nature so in most ancient cultures its often being categorized as a shade of green.

    To give you an example of the opposite:

    The Himba tribe of Namibia is known for their unique perception of color, particularly in how they differentiate shades of green. Research has shown that the Himba are more adept at distinguishing between various shades of green that many “civilized” might see as similar.

  • ricperry1, when you find your way here and read this, thank you for your consideration. You helped at least one more person this week already.

    I've used way to much similar looking software where middle mouse is moving around and it was killing me.

    Shame that forum is still so much more relevant in search engine results, it looks like there getting lonely there.

    This pair is my baby, how would i go about to fix this kind of cables?

    Model is Senheiser Momentum2 HD1 Bluetooth (over ear) PF edition.

    I have wrapped electrical tape over it but cables on both sides have started to disintegrate/decompose.

    I know next to nothing about audio cables. I care more about functional quality then original looks so i would be willing to swap the entire cable for a more permanent one, but i wouldn't want them to look ugly either and need to find a good way to fit them to the earshell.

    Day 7: Game of Mao “Penalty”

    I am obligated to inform you some rules have been adjusted.

    spoiler

    Some valid cards that previously had no acceptable way of being played now have a way of playing them.

    Renamed the terminology for "Valid Cards" into "Valid Pieces" to better reflect the reality of the game and the community.
