<p>This !
Using the same name, i.e. `.map()` is a footgun, that devs would eventually fumble upon.
`rpcMap()` sounds good.

<p>AI systems still struggle with hallucination, especially when your intent of the query is to obtain the latest information. These models have become very good at handling stored information, but their ability to stay updated remains slow. There is a large volume of queries whose responses and underlying concepts don't change much, and the current AI systems, through innovation and user-friendly interfaces, has managed to cast a wide net over such pre-learned responses.<p>However, unless these AI base model businesses create strong enough incentives for information owners to provide updates and engage in information pipelines that provide fresh data, the current moat of AI might not extend far enough to cover the full spectrum of queries.<p>The “fossil fuel” of LLMs-static public internet data-is running out.<p>Current efforts in RL help systems answer queries beyond their pre-learned knowledge by expanding on the user’s prompt, wherein the system ventures into unknown data territories through agents and self-talk, resulting in action-result memories. These, in turn, serve as a large enough context-rich prompt to have all the needles-in-hay-stack that form the final answer or response. This is made possible by large context windows.<p>For live internet queries, RL can work by expanding context with latest results fetched from the public web using a crawler. However, this is often done without the explicit consent from information providers and offers them little incentive beyond a link in the AI’s response summary. As a result, some providers have started withholding data, and many services now offer tools to block AI crawlers.  Meanwhile, multimodal AI systems-capable of understanding text, visuals, and audio-are developing agents that can access content through simulated browser use, effectively bypassing traditional crawler firewalls.<p>This reality highlights the need for a good incentive system for information providers, one that encourages them to share dense, efficiently and ai-structured data. Certain domains have already begun embracing this and sharing their information in ai-native formats, since they have no moat in that information and rather see positive incentives - for example, certain documentation websites for tools and frameworks now provide formatted versions of their docs at /LLMs.txt links.<p>If the information is the resource exchanged on these internet pathways, businesses fundamentally operate either by generating this resource or by retrieving it once it exists, and the other businesses enable this whole endeavour. Ultimately, individuals and organizations will, seek, share and exchange information in ways that enables them to efficiently take decisions and their next actions. Therefore, the incentive to access the most up-to-date information becomes critical when those actions depend on accuracy and timeliness.</p>

<p>Thinking this through, it’s hard to even imagine how such a selloff and transfer could happen.
Chrome, which is built downstream from the open-source Chromium, is a behemoth project with development spanning nearly every domain — rendering, GPU ops, WASM, AI, js engines, web standards, and much more.<p>Sure, Google doesn’t always prioritize developments that don’t align with its ad monopoly. Still, Chrome remains a polished & widely used product.<p>As far as I can see, it would be best to establish a "Chromium Foundation," akin to the Linux Foundation, with emphasis on advancing web standards, unencumbered by corporate priorities.<p>That said, the more entrenched monopoly Google maintains lies in its "Search Experience," integrated with complementary products like Maps, YouTube, Android, and others.<p>I don't see any other viable alternative that serves the needs of most users across the board.
Bing doesn’t come close, and while private search engines cater to power users, the average web user rarely switches search engines.
For many, Google Search has become the de facto entry point to the internet and their view of the Web.</p>

(takes 5 mins tops)<p>With this you get: Simple UI, Auto Subtitles, Good Quality, No Ads and of course All films/series.<p>For your all - PCs, Macs, Mobiles, TVs (almost all)</p>

<p>I think, I do understand both the perspectives (or at least believe so).
One, that after death, you lose your continued existence.
And the other, that, this non-existence isn't a loss, since you can't experience it anymore.<p>Inevitably, the distinction lies in the belief of, whether the world continues to exist once you die - because if it does, then your non-existence is still a loss for your peers and the rest of the world.<p>On other hand, your qualia (sense/experience) of the world is all you have - i.e. your sense of sound, sight, touch etc. So, at most, this sense of experience is what you can call your "world" - nothing more, nothing less. And once that ceases there is no "world" anymore.</p>

IMO, for such numbers, the their base pay is 50% of TTC - so something around 40L and the rest is RSUs.</p>

<p>I agree - that's definitely one way to land a lucrative offer.
But I'm surprised that there was a massive demand last year.
Because I was of the opinion that 2022 was the year where they really slowed down the hiring</p>
