Opposed to google?

Congrats, you are a mouth piece for the oil industry and part of the problem.

Out of curiosity, what was it?

Hypothetical situation, if there was a way to induce lucid dreaming and record the dreams as well? Coding doesn’t really lend itself to this but advertising, filmography or architecture would benefit at least at the early concept stage.

I agree It’s all very sci-fi but if they can make a product that works like they say (sending ultrasounds to target specific parts of the brain to induce lucid dreaming), it has amazing entertainment value right out of the box regardless of its work use.

I think his point is that the REM portion still does its job regardless of if you are lucid or not during the phase.

This would actually be insane for music creation. The few times I had dreams where I was playing an instrument, it was pure fire

You can still build a garden by hand even if it’s commercially done with machines. It will be the same with drawing, voice acting, etc.

The problem is and has always been capitalism and the rich that abuse of it, not automation.

Languages evolve overtime. It’s very much an insult these days.

Less than a dollar per kg! I think that’s honestly the most impressive part.

What about the third option, everyone gets to have the power?

I’ve seen what Marvin Gaye and Conan Doyle’s relatives have done with the power. Dump it in the creative commons. Nobody should own the tonalities of a voice anyways, there quickly wouldn’t be any left.

I think it’s a bit more complicated than that. This could pave de way to getting rid of a lot of handicaps and diseases, not to mention fdvr. I care about monkeys, I just care more about paraplegics for instance.

Anyone know what they mean when they ask for protection from AI? Voice synth is going to be very big for video games seeing the massive amount of NPCs certain games have. I don’t think Microsoft is the kind to play ball and limit what they can do with AI

“Most of the data used by large companies isn’t available to the majority of people. We think that stifles innovation.”

Yes crowd sourcing is a solution but is only really possible if you are able to reach many people like Mozilla can. They only have 20k of hours up to date. Tortoise needed 50k hours and was made by one guy who open sourced it. He would not have been able to build without scraping YouTube.

Crowd sourcing also becomes much more complicated for llms or if you are making models in other language.

Making llms requires a stupid amount of data, much more than what is found in the creative commons. Same goes for image gen. Unless you have been accumulating data since forever through tricking people when they sign up to your website or app, you can’t train anything without scraping most of the data.

It has nothing to do with licensing but the fact that there just isn’t enough “free-use” data.

Anything else is going to bite US in the ass. Asking for consent kills any kind of open source development. It puts AI solely in the hands of like three companies. Our economy is going to be very AI focused in the future, they would literally own all of us.

You aren’t getting paid either way so we might as well all enjoy the fruits of humanities labor freely instead of been forced into a subscription model of it.

Shipping was sabotaged and it just doesn’t make sense to buy local. The item is more expensive and there’s a 30 to 60 dollar shipping fee tagged on. It’s usually the same made in china quality.

For work related stuff, I bypass both and get straight from China.

I don’t like it but the gov didn’t step in and basically handed half our economy to Amazon. At the height of it, they decided to sell our national shipping service so prices went up (I’m in Canada btw).

In a perfect world, amazon would get the boot and we would have a government owned drop shipping infrastructure. Until that happens, I’m not ready to pay 3x the price for simple items just to keep a dead dream alive. Local got snuffed when it comes to consumer goods.

Many AI companies open source their models, their isn’t only openai.

The pop up specifically mentions chrome, it’s not asking to switch browser but just the search engine. It’s anecdotal but I only use Firefox and have never gotten this pop up.

Oh fuck off. They wanted it to spy on their own citizens and those of its allied nations. They wanted the same backdoor google, Facebook, Microsoft and all our telecom companies give them.

I’ve seen a lot of bad takes but this takes the cake. There isn’t anything virtuous about mass spy programs and no way was any actual chinese data even on the table.

“These new data suggest the top 130 feet of the lunar surface are made up of multiple layers of dust, soil, and broken rocks, Feng said. Hidden within these materials was a crater, formed when a large object slammed into the moon. Feng and his colleagues hypothesized that the rubble surrounding this formation was ejecta — debris from the impact. Farther down, the scientists discovered five distinct layers of lunar lava that seeped across the landscape billions of years ago.”

Just in case anyone thought it was actually going to be some type of structure like caverns or something like I did.
