To quote the Onion themselves:
No price would be too high for such a cornucopia of malleable assets and minds. And yet, in a stroke of good fortune, a formidable special interest group has outwitted the hapless owner of InfoWars (a forgettable man with an already-forgotten name) and forced him to sell it at a steep bargain: less than one trillion dollars.
Because novelty is all it has. As soon as it stops improving in a way that makes people say “oh that’s neat”, it has to stand on the practical merits of its capabilities, which is, well, not much.
We could have had that. Now, we might not even have an FTC.
Strictly speaking, the energy it consumes is the gravitational potential energy of the ore they’re mining, which would be consumed anyway in the form of, well, gravity, acting on the ore on the way down. They’re just using it productively instead of dissipating it as heat from the brakes. Using only energy that ordinarily would have been wasted is of course very neat, but it’s not breaking any laws of physics.
Not too long ago, this would be a career-ending display of corruption.
I’m sure there’s some MBA douche stupid enough to buy it.
I’m cautiously optimistic. It looks like a solid core for combat, they need to keep the power creep in check. Most of PoE1’s issues stem from the fact that an optimized build just one-shots everything, and the bandaid fixes that try to fit a source of challenge into that meta.
Remember when every platform renamed PMs to DMs and everyone who pointed out that they’re trying to remove the expectation of privacy was “paranoid”?
That’s also where the “were” prefix in werewolf comes from.
There are 3 very important things that have to be respected when using someone’s work. Consent, credit, and compensation. The data is being taken without the consent of users, they’re not being credited for anything, and they don’t receive so much as a cent in exchange.
Not human biases. Biases in the labeled data set.
Who made the data set? Dogs? Pigeons?
4G LTE was the point of no return. It was supposed to mean “it’s not 4G yet but we have an upgrade plan to get there”, but when they finally did, marketing found out that to the average person, going from 4G LTE to 4G sounded like a downgrade, so they rebranded it to 5G.
I don’t think this one is even an LLM, it looks like the output of a basic article spinning script that takes an existing article and replaces random words with synonyms.
And cannot, since battle facilities prohibit items (except the Battle Pyramid, but you can’t bring items in there either, just what you find during a run).
It’s a classic example in education to demonstrate the difference between bandwidth and latency. Extremely high bandwidth, but also extremely high latency. It’s not for practical use, it’s a thought experiment to explain something that’s often counterintuitive to students that are just starting out learning about networking.
“Guess what! I’ve named a boil on my ass after you. It, too, bothers me every time I sit down.”
