You're asking if the bitter lesson is true and the neural nets will become so general purpose, they'll eat the source control as well? Yes, but that won't happen for another couple months.

Don't you all understand that existing laws on the books are already adequate for dealing with the threat posed by AI

fwiw unlike the other person, I use it for hours with my macbook and have no complaints. you will like it if regular vr makes you feel claustrophobic/isolated, since you still see the real world while using it. I don't understand the obsession with extreme text crispness many people have.

"Surely nobody could be so incompetent."

Narrator: "They had the ability to be that incompetent."

I'm guessing a new $1000/month plan if you want access to this

I have no idea if diplomacy and/or war will end, I just hope we humans get to hang around a few more years

An LLM just solved 10 top tier math problems this week. It seems very likely that in 6 months they will solve 100 top tier math problems, maybe 1 millenium math problem, maybe 10 top tier physics problems, etc.

It's only going to get crazier.

Are you saying it is marketing and their AI broke into hugging face, or are you saying it is marketing and their AI didn't brake into hugging face?

Those are two very different things

Don't know about the situation for this particular example, but keep in mind this type of analysis will necessarily involve extremely archaic dialects of all the involved languages

The comments here do seem to ignore that rocketmoney exists, and that many people use it

It seems like every three years or so I need to use a tool with a plaid link feature, I try it, it gives some internal plaid error, then I find some other way of solving the issue.

it's hard to guess who the winners will be in this product category, I would guess openai or microsoft are more likely than google

I hope you're right, it would be better for the world if you are

but that's probably not what's going to happen
