russia is such a deeply unserious country

Knorozov was born in the village of Yuzhny near Kharkiv, at that time the capital of the newly formed Ukrainian SSR

Are they really ok with a candidate who’s going to try to deport them (at best) or kill them (at worst) for not being white enough, just because they can’t get over their transphobia? If so, then we really are lost

I’m not trained in formal computer science, so I’m unable to evaluate the quality of this paper’s argument, but there’s a preprint out that claims to prove that current computing architectures will never be able to advance to AGI, and that rather than accelerating, improvements are only going to slow down due to the exponential increase in resources necessary for any incremental advancements (because it’s an NP-hard problem). That doesn’t prove LLMs are end of the line, but it does suggest that additional improvements are likely to be marginal.

Reclaiming AI as a theoretical tool for cognitive science

The one colleague using AI at my company produced (CUDA) code with lots of memory leaks that required two expert developers to fix. LLMs produce code based on vibes instead of following language syntax and proper coding practices. Maybe that would be ok in a more forgiving high level language, but I don’t trust them at all for low level languages.

The 1950s called, they want their cultural milieu back

The wealthy passengers shouldn’t have depended on the crew to rescue them; that’s socialism. They should just pull themselves out of the water by their bootstraps.

Who’s said bye to DVDs?

Because it reports sources known to be unreliable (like Jerusalem Post and EuroNews) as Highly Trustworthy

I’m scared

Are you implying that Christians are responsible for the preservation of the book they culturally appropriated?

I feel like it’s an underappreciated point that Christians have never followed Jesus; they follow Paul. “Christian” has always been a marketing term for an imperialist, non-Jewish (and in fact, anti-Jewish) religion that took over the momentum of a small Jewish sect that died out once it became clear Jesus wasn’t coming back.

As an American I’m newly flabbergasted by this every damn day

They probably did think of it but then rejected it when they found out how progressive Jesus is

“Aren’t I”, as in “I’m still going with you, aren’t I?”, which, when uncontracted, becomes “are I not?” It should be “ain’t I” since “ain’t” is a proper contraction for “amn’t”, but there’s been an irrational suppression of “ain’t”.

rossia is dumb

bad bot

The “: Moscow” attribution tells you everything about how useless this headline is

to join lemmy.ml you need to copy and paste a paragraph from a communist text, so, no

I don’t think anyone on the left is claiming that Arch has the same level of complication as Windows
