I drive automatic in Europe. Simply it is illegal to have a mobile in your hand while driving. Fees are very high, and the license is suspended minimum 2 weeks

And heat, a lot of heat. 4th time dead

Is it a stereotype that British work hard? I thought the stereotype is that they are always drunk.

Because he was ceo of a company in a critical position to define the future of economy. Currently the tech field is the biggest and most influential of all economic fields. And by tech here we talk about digital world. There’s absolutely no comparable sector at the moment for importance, not even pharma.

It literally defines the modern economy. In the field, openai is an incredibly important company for future relative success and power of big tech companies.

This is why it is so important for world economy

That’s a boomer myth. They used to work long hours but much relaxed pace. Go and show them the modern schedule and stressors of many modern job, and they are absolutely higher than in the past. Every honest european boomer agrees with this. Millennials europeans are working much more intensively and more effective hours overall, even in Germany

I guess nobody knows. It also really depends on the program installed. If you need all qt, gdk, jdk, java for each program with a ui… You’d run out of space soon

Because in many languages that are not English, America is the whole continent. What Americans call “America” is United States of America. We need a word for their citizens, that is not the name of the inhabitants of the whole continent

In Italian “statunitensi”, i.e. United States people

Because international agencies and governments recognize those settlements as violations of international laws https://press.un.org/en/2016/sc12657.doc.htm . To create those settlements, most often, people previously living there were forced to move somewhere else, often by using army.

That’s the reason. Whatever is someone’s side on the conflicts, those settlements are simply widely recognized as illegal

What news do you read? It has been on the news constantly over the past decades. Now we have a dramatic escalation of an ongoing conflict

In the easiest example of a neuron in a artificial neural network, you take an image, you multiply every pixel by some weight, and you apply a very simple non linear transformation at the end. Any transformation is fine, but usually they are pretty trivial. Then you mix and match these neurons to create a neural network. The more complex the task, the more additional operations are added.

In our brain, a neuron binds some neurotransmitters that trigger a electrical signal, this electrical signal is modulated and finally triggers the release of a certain quantity of certain neurotransmitters on the other extreme of the neuron. Detailed, quantitative mechanisms are still not known. These neurons are put together in an extremely complex neural network, details of which are still unknown.

Artificial neural network started as an extremely coarse simulation of real neural networks. Just toy models to explain the concept. Since then, they diverged, evolving in a direction completely unrelated to real neural network, becoming their own thing.

No, what you describe is a basic decision tree. Let’s say the simplest possible ML algorithm, but it is not used as is in practice anywhere. Usually you find “forests” of more complex trees, and they cannot be used for generation, but are very powerful for labeling or regression (eli5 predict some number).

Generative models are based on multiple transformations of images or sentences in extremely complex, nested chains of vector functions, that can extract relevant information (such as concepts, conceptual similarities, and so on).

In practice (eli5), input is transformed in a vector and passed to a complex chain of vector multiplications and simple mathematical transformations until you get an output that in the vast majority of cases is original, i.e. not present in the training data. Non original outputs are possible in case of few “issues” in the training dataset or training process (unless explicitly asked).

In our brain there are no if/else, but electrical signals modulated and transformed, which is conceptually more similar to the generative models than to a decision tree.

In practice however our brain works very differently than generative models

There is not a single if/else in a neural network. You are confusing it with decision trees that are used for classification

You are asking for kidney stones. There’s a chemical reason you want plenty of water to dilute your waste, that is avoid precipitation

I am well, thanks for asking.

Currently the tech I am a huge fan of is helping me a lot handling the daily business. It has been a godsend for my mental health. It is helping me in a lot of areas I struggle with (paper work and meaningless corporate processes), it helps me better organizing my work, and it support me in areas where I used to heavily rely on Google and forums. It helps me to learn and improve. Overall I am a happy chatgpt customer.

Other than that, we don’t have AI yet, still layoffs are at record number. Layoffs and suffering are not caused by AI, or whatever fancy tech. They are caused by current economic system that cannot redistribute wealth and business practices built to concentrate wealth. They’ve been there before AI, they’ll be there after AI.

If you believe that blocking AI will change anything… No it won’t. It won’t change anything.

It’s like saying that someone who built the steam engine and the engineers building trains actively killed native Americans is US, because trains helped colonization of north America. The steam engine and trains were a great thing. Politics must deal with social changes. Because we know that any technological advance can result in social instability if left in the hand of wrong people.

This is exactly the topic of the linked article. Nothing wrong with ML, AI and technology as is. Wrong applications are the problem

Edit. For context https://americanhistory.si.edu/blog/TRR

I work in ML and AI and I strongly believe that reduced hours, wfh and universal basic income are needed. All new technologies can help us living a better life, it doesn’t make sense using them to build a worst society

Have you thought asking support from a counselor? It might help to cope
