  • Leaked Documents Show OpenAI Has a Very Clear Definition of ‘AGI’

  • a series of switches is not ever going to create a sentient being

    Is the goal to create a sentient being, or to create something that seems sentient? How would you even tell the difference (assuming it could pass any test a normal human could)?

  • YouTube is cracking down on clickbait

  • I heard Facebook is spent tons of money to combat election misinformation in 2016 and 2020 and I heard the same story again in 2024. The problem is solved right?

  • AI is just a plagiarism machine with thousands of copyrighted materials that "trained" it, which they paid nothing for.

  • I literally never said anything about police. I'm not trying to argue about police. Just that the world is in fact a safe place that continues to get safer. If the fact that the crime continues to drop, if that destroys your argument about police being bad, then maybe get a new argument about why police are bad. Crime is down. It's just a statement of fact.

  • Global Peace Index includes factors like military spending and weapons exports. It's not a measure of how safe it is to live inside the USA.

  • I'm not saying it's "good enough," I'm saying that it has improved. It will hopefully continue to improve. It's far from perfect. I have no disagreements there. My problem was with this statement:

    If police and prisons made societies safer the USA would be the safest society on the planet.

    Well it is one of the safest societies on the planet. And it continues to get safer.

    This is not the argument against police you think it is.

  • One lie I've heard over and over in my life is how unsafe everything is. Small town people think the cities are unsafe. City people think the small towns are unsafe. They're not. They're actually fine. It's a scare tactic. The media over reports crime. Look at any crime statistics and you'll see, yes, some recent spikes. As always. But if you're watching the news you'd think we've been in a perpetual crime spike since the 1960's or so. It's a safer world right now than it was 50 and 100 years ago.

    The USA is, in fact (even if it upsets you) one of the safest societies in the history of the world. Only behind other modern 1st world nations.

  • On a global scale this is probably one of the safest times in human history, and the USA is safer than most.

  • 1,063,829,787

    It would be that many times the squared volume of a 200x200 image. Which is already 40,000 pixels. Multiply those together and you get 4.25 million megapixels (which are 1 billion pixels each), aka 4.25 gigapixels. It's extremely large but not unachievable.

    People are AI generating entire movies which are 24-30 pictures per second. Seems like you could hit really big numbers really really fast.

  • Larry The Cable Guy was the even weirder part. It's a character he plays with a fake accent, making fun of rednecks. Yet the rednecks were the people who loved it.

    IDK it's like if the biggest fans of The Jazz Singer were black, or if the biggest fans of Borat were native Kazakhs. Groups are rarely happy with being depicted as a caricature played by a foreigner.

  • It's because we don't have a style of music called "Jizz."

  • Star Wars was based on the past but set in the future. They borrowed "stormtroopers" from Hitler. The space battles are just like WWII dogfights. Star Wars was never looking forward it was looking backwards.

  • Happened in 1991 but not uploaded until 2009. Mirrors the plot of Minority Report (2002). Like he could see the future.

  • I'm more surprised that he took the time to use an accent mark. Either a copy-paste to make sure he got it right, or lots of extra time changing his keyboard back and forth.

  • My ears have never popped in my life... What is going on?

    Jump

  • For me it's part of yawning. Ears pop when I yawn.

    A lot of people have trouble with ears popping especially with airplanes. Hopefully you can take comfort in the stereotype of someone chewing gum to fix that problem.

  • I would never have known Harris worked at McDonalds, but Trump will not shut up about it.
