I don’t believe that you can use traditional algorithms to teach the car street driving, because there are to many different variations… Even if your autopilot is 99% correct and you drive 20000km a year, you still drive wrong 200km of it.

Exactly!

And this is why, if the problem is solveable, it must be solved by learning models shepherded by expert engineers. The LLMs can take care of the long boring stretches, freeing skilled engineer time to fine-tune an LLM algorithm hybrid for the tricky bits.

I’m inclined to believe the problem is solveable, but since I’m not selling anything, I’m allowed to say “if”. Heh.

Yeah. Current generation learning models can do impressive things in the hands of a skilled engineer, but Elon is leading a round of class warfare against skilled engineers right now.

Shareholders need to decide which they really want to bet on to win.

Makes sense. I’m not picky about which exact risks our entitled overconfident billionaires opt to take.

I mean, if anyone ever introduces the average shareholder to those executive decision desk toy spinners, the average CEO is fucked.

Sometimes I’m reminded that there’s always a chance that they go submarine diving or some such with another overconfident crony who thinks their skills got them where they are today.

That out of the way, FSD sucks, and it’s getting worse, not better.

It’s almost like they bet on the AI to teach the AI, rather than continuing to pay for skilled engineers.

Buckle up folks, we’re going to see a lot more of this, across every industry, before the lawsuits go into high gear and anything gets better.

I have both the official dock and some random USB C multi-connector. The random one is far more reliable, in my experience.

There isn’t a general, easy solution to the N-body problem.

Lol. Yet.

No doubt it will be discovered by a tool assisted speed runner.

Yeah.

Annecdotaly, Dropout.tv has a good number of LGBTQ employees, seems conscious not to shit on people, and has a growing library of stand up.

Yeah. I can understand being nervous that Putin won’t approve spending money on national defense investments.

I’m going to be switching to Linux before Win 10 is end of life, and there are so many more options than there were in the early 2000’s.

Fedora isn’t my distro of choice, but I can confirm it’s an excellent no-nonsense choice. It gets the job done with minimal fuss.

But one of those is a community of people banded together for mutual aid to protect their basic rights and the other…oh…I see what you did there.

Lol. Take my angry up vote.

More people should figure this out. Star Trek is essential to a healthy media diet.

I also recommend a regular dose of stand-up comedy.

Recall is a database Microsoft (wants to) build that records the screen every moment you use your computer (yes, including the embarrassing stuff).

It does this to better help you with suggestions.

It’s going to end a lot of relationships in a very graphic pornographic ways, I expect.

But a few people will be delightfully (and graphically) surprised that their partner is also into their kink.

But most importantly, all data that gets stored eventually gets breached to someone who shouldn’t have it.

So we expect to hear a lot more about (and experience a lot more) blackmail (alongside ransomware and financial crimes) in the next ten years.

I’ve started to do this as well, simply so they feel like I’m engaged with the conversation.

It’s funny, lately they start to realize how much nicer my computer (experience) is than theirs.

I’m thankful my inner daemons use IRC.

…

I’ll just see myself out now.

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

I salute your evil mind.

gimp doesn’t work on wayland

Ouch. It works for me on Debian 12 and Wayland 47.

I like Krita way better, anyway, now, though.

sucks your mum died; maybe it was from the shame of you using Adobe products

I would never say that to anyone. Lol.

But I would probably wear it on a t-shirt.
