It’s also a security risk. Wasn’t there just a recently discovered backdoor in some widely used library that was put there by someone who fooled a burned out/depressed maintainer?

Normal, mainstream software expected users to run DOS commands and edit autoexec.bat/config.sys files, and installing new hardware often involved configuring motherboard DIP switches and trying to figure out what “IRQ” and “DMA” means. There is no equivalent to that today. Plug it in, turn it on, and you’re done. 9 times out of 10 you don’t even need to install a driver, your OS already has it. Where does the door to learning and discovery present itself? With plug and play systems and walled garden app stores, everywhere a user could possibly come across some more advanced concepts has been muted and decorated over with pretty conveniences. Computers are toasters now.
Sometimes efficiency gains aren’t worth the cost and complexity. Regenerative braking produces a shitton more power than this, so it’s worth it (also, the motors are already there, just run them in reverse and turn them into generators). You can get the same thing by slapping a solar panel on the roof. Which nobody is doing because it’s too costly and complex for what you get out of it.
The meme came first. Then the coin. Then Elon. It used to be innocent.
Don’t worry, there’s enough other bronies out there to skew the average age up.
Yeah the article has a link to another one where “OMG it modified its own code to bypass restraints”, and then you read it and realize, no, it didn’t suddenly gain self awareness and try to “singularity” itself, it just recognized a problem and responded with a pattern it learned before to try to fix it, and spat it out at the researchers. That’s all.
The clickbait and misunderstanding from both anti and pro-AI folks is getting nauseating.

I can’t shop there often myself, I always walk out with even more Adafruit/RPi/Arduino shit I’ll never do anything with.
Is there a way to distribute it so everyone just has parts of it? Aren’t there p2p cloud storage solutions that exist?
I don’t think any of our classical open licenses from the 80s and 90s were ever created with AI in mind. They are inadequate. An update or new one is needed.
Stallman, spit out the toe cheese and get to work.
It’s art. It’s not real, and it’s not hurting anybody in real life. We shouldn’t ban things because they make you uncomfortable, we ban them when they harm actual people.
Edit: this is in no way an endorsement of that particular fetish. I personally think it’s sick and disgusting. But it’s not my place to tell someone else not to enjoy it if nobody was harmed in its production.
It can do that just fine, because it has seen enough examples of working code. It can’t directly count correctly, sure, but it can write “i++;”, incrementing a variable by one in a loop and returning the result. The computer running the generated program is going to be doing the counting.
I agree, but no, I’m not wearing the stupid mask.
When modern CPUs execute instructions, they try to make a best guess as to what the next instruction or data it needs will be while it’s still executing the first, to speed things up so it doesn’t have to wait until the entire instruction execution cycle is complete to start retrieving the next one from memory. These exploits force it to guess wrong, potentially pulling sensitive data out of memory and making it accessible to processes which usually can’t access it.
Carries entire homelab onto plane so who’s up for a LAN party? I’m hosting.
Id rather have at least something to throw into the gears of the system than nothing at all.
With a warrant. Main difference is the Chinese govt has no such roadblocks.
Why did we have to shoot the fucking Gorilla? Why?
That’s the problem with ALL gen-AI!! They aren’t knowledge databases. They are pattern generators. When will people get this through their skulls?
