It’s not like Japan bans big cars either? They just have a specific category of small (kei) cars.

It’s the common trend, not just a few outlier models, and it’s happening pretty much globally.

Isn’t that roughly the plot to a current showing movie?

Well it is AI, it’s just not all AI

Allowing what? All modern cars?

Could you explain WHY you don’t think it could work? ‘Selfish turds’ is a bit too generic to give an answer to.

You’d have to believe him in the first place. Do you?

Oh nice! I can stop blocking fandom from my search results now.

And others are actual gems. They’re not mutually exclusive. It’s ok to point out the problems while also acknowledging there’s actual accomplishments.

The point is, there are plenty of mathematicians who have looked at some of the output and been impressed by it. Contrast that with the comments in here that are almost universally negative. One might think there was an unreasonable bias in our little echo chamber.

Yeah but I wish the crowd on lemmy would be a little less reddity and actually read the articles.

But for all the slop and uncertainty, the overarching consensus is that the release contains some genuinely impressive work. While stressing the difficulties assessing the volume of material — and the need to properly verify the results — numerous researchers The Verge spoke to said the work appeared to be of a very high caliber, despite shortcomings in its presentation. In a pre-AI world, they said, many of OpenAI’s results would clearly have warranted publication in top-tier journals and could have been enough to secure an academic career for their authors. A handful were described as being the kind of work that could make a mathematician a serious contender for a Fields Medal, one of the discipline’s highest honors.
While some of it is slop, there appear to be genuine gems in there.
I feel like most of the commentors here didn’t even bother reading the article. It’s insane how so many of the mathematicians cited in the article are excited or anxious about developments, and most of the people in here are just declaring more AI slop.

For all the comments in here, I’m surprised nobody’s pointed out there’s a good chance she’s simply not aware of the health effects. If she’s receptive, this could be a good chance to educate her.

Look, they found a way to connect to faraway regions of space and shortcut the journey, and decided a facility was necessary to protect against hostile intrusions and be a hub. Also something about returning control to the natives. Religion / religious zealots bad.

The conversion of saline into fresh water via the water cycle will be sufficient to keep the cars running, though maybe not humans. The proof is obvious and left as an exercise to the reader.

Oh right, that shit made me wonder why they weren’t just transfusing blood around to induct new members… Or, you know, giving the power of the force to every person.
It’s not like we need to individually train our own AI models, a few groups could do it and release for everybody else. Like Anna’s Archive.
