Apparently, all possible movies, cinematics and ads have been generated by "enthusiasts at home", so the tool is no longer needed.

On a more serious note, it could be a sign of a more powerful and general model being developed/released in the near future, that would include Sora capabilities. Or AI-doomers were right, and this sunset is one of the proofs for them.

I am pretty sure this comment, as many others of the same poster were LLM-generated with slight prompt tweak, which is against TOS. Check their history for proofs.

I explained in detail why it is true, and what would the opposite imply for you as a human being.

Even if the visualization of the integration process via steps typed out in the chat interface is the same as what you would have done on paper, the way the steps were obtained is likely very different for you and LLM. You recognized the integral's type and applied corresponding technique to solve it. LLM found the most likely continuation of tokens after your input among all the data it has been fed, and those tokens happen to be the typography for the integral steps. It is very unlikely are you doing the same, i.e. calculating probabilities of all the words you know and then choosing the one with the highest probability of being correct.

It's probably a good idea to let church go in 2026 too.

You should use some of those agents yourself to fix some glaring issues at your landing page.

I am pretty sure ArthurStacks account is either a troll or an LLM gone rogue troll. There are so many contradictions among his own comments that it is embarrassing to list them all. But given the reaction and number of replies he gets, the trolling is rather successful.

You are making plenty of profit for 30 years and have not retired yet? Sounds like you are far less successful than what you are trying to project.

That's a very wrong statement. Pretty sure I could explain all the maths, all the physics, all the electronics, all the operating systems and all the user space of a single high level language operation, when I was a fresh graduate. Now, I have forgotten most of the physics and electronics, since the university was quite some time ago, but feel free to ask any decent student of an IT bachelor, they should be able to pretty much build the PC from scratch. Sure, modern processors and whatnot add a bunch of optimizations, but you seem to really overstate the complexity of the computer.

I believe with regulatory capture the companies that pushed for the regulation in the first place at least comply with it (and hopefully the regulation is not worthless). This behaviour by ClosedAI is even worse: push for the regulation, then push for the exemption.

Tech is partially, some would say even mostly, responsible for the current political atmosphere and climate, so no, neither we are any better than this, nor should it be avoided.

arkadiytehgraet — Mon, 24 Jun 2024 21:07:31 +0000

As someone with reasonably good mental math skills (120+ score consistently on https://arithmetic.zetamac.com/, default settings), I cannot really say it helps me much in the real life, at least not on the surface. It sure is nice to be able to estimate some things accurately without having to resort to a calculator, but in no way would anything change in the way I think or conclusions I make if I had to use one, so there might be some truth to what Mr Wolfram is suggesting.

Original RCT most definitely had underground building, both for paths and attractions. I think 1 or 2 parks in the 'campaign' was even centered about being mostly underground.

arkadiytehgraet — Mon, 04 Mar 2024 12:34:18 +0000

Could someone please explain to me the following: does Apple have to pay the fine just once and then it can continue with the same practice of taking its 30% cut and preventing Spotify to direct users outside of the app for payment?

Or can EU sue Apple immediately again for the same thing? Or does Apple get some time to change their ways and if they don't, then they will get fined even more?

New comment by arkadiytehgraet in "FunSearch: Making new discoveries in mathematical sciences using LLMs"

arkadiytehgraet — Fri, 15 Dec 2023 15:03:11 +0000

I have been wondering recently about a good test for checking whether LLMs can only parrot stochastically or do they manage to indeed learn some higher order concepts inside their weights.

What if we would take a bare LLM, train it only on the information (in Maths, physics, etc) that was available to, say, Newton and then try to prompt it to solve the problems that Newton solved? Will it be able to derive the calculus basics and stuff having never seen it before, maybe even with little bit of help from the prompts? Maybe it will be able to come up with something completely different, yet also useful? Or nothing at all...
