Didn’t China just recently lie about their ability to do this? I suspect they aren’t as close as they claim

If you asked me “what job is most likely to be replaced by a computer program which generates plausible and convincing text and media, regardless of their agreement with reality”, my number 1 answer probably would be “marketing”.
Excepting of course identical twins
Edit: apparently I was wrong
I always assumed it was a bit like SHA hashing. Yes, collisions are theoretically possible. But they’re so unlikely that it can be used as a unique identifier for most purposes.
When it turns out that it will gather huge amounts of data and sell it for advertising purposes? Shaka, when the walls fell.
Any sufficiently rigged demo is indistinguishable from advanced technology
Danger zone!
So many people don’t use adblockers. It’s quite sad actually.
It writes like a high school student who is supposed to hit their word count
Because there’s no money in getting people to use less. Persuasion in capitalism is about marketing. It’s about convincing people to buy things they don’t need.
I know what it means. For me it also implies an attempt at saying something which is true, even if simply interpolating from other facts. It doesn’t fully reflect the total indifference to reality that is exhibited by language models
The only issue I have there is that it isn’t as widely known and understood. Also if you say someone is confabulating, it means they don’t realize that they are bullshitting, whereas language models are literally designed to bullshit in this manner.
I really liked this article. If you know how AI works, it’s tempting to call what it does “lying”, but I like “bullshit” as a distinct concept for describing being totally indifferent to facts. And it’s interesting that 30% of people in the UK view themselves as having a “bullshit” job, one where they don’t think they contribute anything of value to society. You can totally see why language models would be appealing to so many people.
He literally hugged and kissed a canister of nuclear waste to show how safe it is. Kyle Hill is my hero
I’m not gonna deny this is impressive. But keep in mind that there are probably hundreds of breakout implementations out there that were included in the training dataset. You basically just asked it to create a game that it has seen countless times.
Try asking it to create something creative and unique rather than creating a high school programming assignment and see what it does.
Are the renewables including cost of storage in this graphic? Batteries are a lot more needed with wind and solar since they aren’t always available.
Also, I’d imagine nuclear would enjoy a similar level of success if there were more countries willing to invest in nuclear.
It works better if you read the article in the voice of {pick your favourite Star Trek chief engineer}
Missed opportunity for “What the eff is a Passkey?”
I don’t have it handy but there were posts on one of the tech Lemmy communities about it. IIRC, they claimed to have sourced their own 5nm but a teardown revealed Taiwanese chips.
