Re: Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now
https://www.sciencealert.com/ai-has-already-become-a-master-of-lies-and-deception-scientists-warn Yep. Told you so. AI cannot be trusted. That's not a problem. Train A.I. on the entire internet and it will learn human's flair for lying and gaming the system. It's doing exactly what the research is:...

Boomer. I remember Eisenhower running for president. Here's a little jingle kids were chanting back then: "Ike's in the White House talking on the phone, Nixon's in the dog house chewing on a bone." Yeah, we were all little political zombies even back then. Oh and the official word on the ...

February 7, 2020 Georgetown Law’s Institute for Technology Law and Policy hosted a series of panel discussions on election integrity. During this portion, panelists discussed various ways voting machines could be hacked and outlined the benefits of paper ballots. https://www.c-span.org/video/?469098...

I've never been on Facebook, but it always seemed odd to me that they would hate knives so much. Maybe they are just hyper paranoid. Take a look at what they spend on personal security for CEO's. https://www.businessinsider.com/how-much-bodyguards-security-costs-ceos-mark-zuckerberg-tim-cook-2023-3?...

Re: Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now
Do you worry about A.I. ? Some people are spending a LOT of money to make sure you do. Some good commentary here: https://substack.com/@aipanicnews Keep in mind that no regulation in America is going to stop A.I. research in other countries. In other words, all they're doing is giving China a clear ...

Just noticed the Cold Steel Mayhem in AUS-10A and G10 is now down to ~$135. Even cheaper if the coupon mentioned above works. https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1024990713?pid=966787 I'm guessing it will go down further and eventually show up with a resin handle, but that's a big improvement from ear...

Re: The Days of the Milkman May Be Numbered!

Re: Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now
We seem to be a long way from an evil A.I. superintelligence that destroys humanity. My guess is humans will be the bigger problem for the forseeable future. In the meantime, A.I. seems to be most useful at leveraging human work. For example, Google DeepMind's AlphaFold project: https://deepmind.goo...

Re: Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now
Not a big fan of Zuckerberg or Facebook. Just the idea that Meta’s Fundamental A.I. Research team, is codenamed FAIR is what I would call "fair warning". Microsoft has a colorful history too. Here's a good analysis of their project with Open A.I. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ix_R6WTX04I
