If I find a cool piece of driftwood and frame it, did I do art?
Kinda? I "found" a defective injection molding part, where the color of previous batch seeped in in a pattern that looks like a flower. It's really pretty. That there is no intention behind it makes it more interesting to me. It wasn't trivial to put it on a wall. I had to use nails and iron wire and then balance it. I am fine with not calling it art. On a scale 1-10 it definitely is not more than 2.
I think it's more like Alien vs Predator.
“Both what I’ve seen, and what the administration sees, is you all are one of the most respected technology groups in the federal government,” Shedd told TTS workers. “You guys have been doing this far longer than I've been even aware that your group exists.”
(emphasis mine)
Well, maybe start acting like it champ.
personally i think that Vietnamese invasion on all ea compounds would solve a lots of problems and disband a couple of startups
But aren't they used to dealing with VC?
I'm wondering about the benchmark too. It's way above my level to figure out how it can be gamed. But, buried in the article:
Moreover, ARC-AGI-1 is now saturating – besides o3's new score, the fact is that a large ensemble of low-compute Kaggle solutions can now score 81% on the private eval.
The most expensive o3 version achieved 87.5%
Man I don't need to be reminded of the sorry state of meat alternatives.
It's bitterly funny to me that fashoid governments started banning cultivated meat as if the economic and technical issues weren't enough. Ignorants terrified of threats they made up in their head as always.
The promptfans testing OpenAI Sora have gotten mad that it's happening to them and (temporarily) leaked access to the API.
https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/26/artists-appears-to-have-leaked-access-to-openais-sora/
“Hundreds of artists provide unpaid labor through bug testing, feedback and experimental work for the [Sora early access] program for a $150B valued [sic] company,” the group, which calls itself “Sora PR Puppets,” wrote in a post ...
"Well, they didn't compensate actual artists, but surely they will compensate us."
“This early access program appears to be less about creative expression and critique, and more about PR and advertisement.”
OK, I could give them the benefit of the doubt: maybe they're new to the GenAI space, or general ML Space ... or IT.
But I'm not going to. Of course it's about PR hype.
Also, I the image is perfect. I especially like the Joe Kucan-looking general embedded in the star trek tactical station. The Technology of Peace ain’t what it used to be, is it?
Is that a screenshot from Command&Conquer 4?
That article gave me a whiplash. First part: pretty cool. Second part: deeply questionable.
For example these two paragraphs from sections 'problem with code' and 'magic of data':
“Modular and interpretable code” sounds great until you are staring at 100 modules with 100,000 lines of code each and someone is asking you to interpret it.
Regardless of how complicated your program’s behavior is, if you write it as a neural network, the program remains interpretable. To know what your neural network actually does, just read the dataset
Well, "just read the dataset bro" sound great sounds great until you are staring at a dataset with 100 000 examples and someone is asking you to interpret it.
I thought it was for Bozo
Who knows. The only thing that came to my mind reading that is the joke "statement made by utterly deranged". And then I realized there is no joke.
Are economists considered physical scientists? I've read it as "social scientists are dumb except for economists". Which fits my prejudice for econo-brained less wrongers.
