Yeah, like a few days ago when sales numbers came out and the stock price jumped up because “we were expecting even worse numbers” ignoring that the stock is priced as if tesla is set for insane growth. Musk will just announce some more stupid vaporware to pump the stock back up if it gets too low for his liking, as he always does.
Noooooo!!! You can’t just force us to use a Microsoft account!!! You have to allow us to use the bypasserino!!! Noooooooo!!!
Wake me up when it’s worse than 2022.
It may not “understand” like a human, but it can synthesize in a way that mimics — and sometimes even surpasses — human creativity.
Calling it a “stochastic parrot” is like calling a jazz musician an “audio repeater” because they’re using notes they’ve heard before. It misses the creativity in the combination — the generative power that lies within the latent space.
It reads like the brainless drivel that corporate drones are forced to churn out, complete with meaningless fluff words. This is why the executives love AI, they read and expect that trash all the time and think it’s suitable for everything.
Executives are perfectly content with what looks good at a cursory glance and don’t care about what’s actually good in practice because their job is to make themselves seem more important than they actually are.
What a coincidence, the US remains the top military and cyber threat to China.
We should do an uno reverse and nationalize wells fargo.
It’s certainly a cause for concern, I’m just labeling it as a conspiracy theory because how the system would work in practice is still in the air and there’s been theorizing on what they could do, but what they could do is not necessarily what they will do. You’re right though, the potential amount of control they could exercise over the monetary system with this setup is terrifying. For example, I’ve heard of the idea floating around of having money that sits in an account for a certain amount of time expiring to force increased spending. Inflation is supposed to encourage the same behavior, but this is much more blatant and leaves no room for speculation.
There are conspiracy theories about the federal reserve issuing their own digital currency, but having a neutral payment system would be extremely useful. Also, payment processors should pass these credit card fees onto the customer and show it on the receipt to drive up demand for lower fee cards, otherwise we’re all just subsidizing high fee cards.
Isn’t this the second time they’ve had to recall nearly every single cybertruck (which couldn’t be fixed with an over-the-air update)? The first was for an issue with the accelerator pedal getting stuck, from what I remember. Is it just tesla/musk fanatics buying these up? I can’t imagine anyone else finding this vehicle appealing, from the terrible aesthetics to the severe design issues and all for a high price. I assume tesla fanatics are the only reason the stock price hasn’t cratered either, but maybe reality will catch up someday.
I remember reading about this years ago. It’s so cool seeing it being used successfully in a patient! Technology like this makes me feel better about the future.
I’m excited to see more competition! I also like how RISC-V is based on open source work which reduces startup costs and opens up greater collaboration. We’ve all benefited greatly from open source software, so it would be nice to see more of that on the hardware side as well. I’ll be shocked if the chip actually competes on performance, though it may be more of a cost-for-performance deal like ARM. Speaking of which, I wonder how it’ll compare with ARM server processors as well.
This isn’t extensive, but when looking up products on amazon through camelcamelcamel that existed in 2023 and now, the trend matches up:
SSDs were even cheaper until memory manufacturers decided it was getting too cheap: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ssds/ssd-prices-predicted-to-skyrocket-throughout-2024
They predicted prices would go higher and, through the magic of intentionally constricting supply, it happened. Prices still have not dropped back down to where they were in 2023.
Just wait until they come out with DDR4 SAM.
It’d be a decent deal now, but this launches in 2027, by which point this would be underwhelming.
It’s not mutually exclusive. Laws are wielded as weapons all the time.
Stick to SEARCH, not making shit up (euphemistically called “hallucinating”).
This only makes me want to pirate Nintendo games.
Monster Bash! It was one of the better-playing platformers on the PC back in the day and I loved the halloween aesthetic.
People at or near retirement age should have a 401k invested in more safe funds with a higher mix of bonds. Why would they have such a high proportion of stocks that a drop in the stock market would impact their spending habits?
