Fuck the whole HP franchise.
It was always shitty writing and the plot was garbage. The whole story was a thinly veiled glorification of British exceptionalism.
The only saving grace of that stinking turd of a franchise is that, in the '90s, it seemed like a good way to get kids to read.
It’s a nice idea but the military makes it really hard to do that.
I wouldn’t either but that’s exactly what lmsys.org found.
That blog post had ratings between 858 and 1169. Those are slightly higher than the average rating of human users on popular chess sites. Their latest leaderboard shows them doing even better.
https://lmarena.ai/leaderboard has one of the Gemini models with a rating of 1470. That’s pretty good.
I imagine the “author” did something like, “Search http://google.scholar.com/ find a publication where AI failed at something and write a paragraph about it.”
It’s not even as bad as the article claims.
Atari isn’t great at chess. https://chess.stackexchange.com/questions/24952/how-strong-is-each-level-of-atari-2600s-video-chess
Random LLMs were nearly as good 2 years ago. https://lmsys.org/blog/2023-05-03-arena/
LLMs that are actually trained for chess have done much better. https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.17186
Like humans are way better at answering stuff when it’s a collaboration of more than one person. I suspect the same is true of LLMs.
It is.
It’s really common for non-language implementations of neural networks. If you have an NN that’s right some percentage of the time, you can often run it through a bunch of copies of the NNs and take the average and that average is correct a higher percentage of the time.
Aider is an open source AI coding assistant that lets you use one model to plan the coding and a second one to do the actual coding. It works better than doing it in a single pass, even if you assign the the same model to planing and coding.
The Israelis regularly murder journalists and civilians. The danger was quite real.
Sometimes it seems like most of these AI articles are written by AIs with bad prompts.
Human journalists would hopefully do a little research. A quick search would reveal that researches have been publishing about this for over a year so there’s no need to sensationalize it. Perhaps the human journalist could have spent a little time talking about why LLMs are bad at chess and how researchers are approaching the problem.
LLMs on the other hand, are very good at producing clickbait articles with low information content.
It’s 27T Pro. I like it better than the iPhone it replaced.
The only downsides I’ve seen so far are that it requires a separate app for wifi calling and it has fewer zoom options for the camera. I’d like to figure out how to get the IR blaster to read signals (so I can easily clone my remotes).
Yeah. I’m typing this on a $300 Chinese phone with 10600mAH battery, reverse wireless charging, a thermal imaging camera, and it’s waterproof and shock resistant.
You can add lots of things. I tend to throw in liberal amounts of smashed garlic and some mustard. Depending on what’s available in the garden, I may throw in some fresh herbs. Sometimes I toss in a little lemon zest or a finely smashed caper.
But none of that is needed in a simple vinaigrette.
Mustard will make it better but you don’t need it.
You won’t get as good an emulsion and it will separate faster. Once you pour it on some salad it will be pretty hard to notice that.
If someone is at the point in their cooking journey where they’re asking how to make vinaigrette, I keep it as simple as possible. TBH even the pepper isn’t strictly necessary. Many people don’t have pepper grinders and preground pepper doesn’t add much flavor.
Salt is the only one that I’d say is absolutely necessary.
It’s a bit complicated for a “simple vinaigrette”.
Pour about equal amounts of oil and vinegar in a jar; add a little salt and pepper.
Screw on the lid and shake that shit.
Pour it on stuff.
Sauces can get arbitrarily complicated. If someone wants a simple recipe, keep it simple.
Is it something about hair extensions?
I don’t know what the implications of hair extensions would be.
I assume she meant exactly what she said.
They gave up their bicycles and quaint straw hats for modernity and now they think they’re entitled to the same standard of living as Americans.
Don’t care
It’s easy to ignore the suffering of others. Have you spent any time in villages where the richest people live like medieval peasants because the whole town hasn’t had any infrastructure improvements in over a century? “Rich” in those places just means slightly less desperately poor. They’re quite egalitarian, it’s just that they’re all broke together.
I’ve never heard of Siemens referred to as an “automation company”.
That’s technically true but they’re much more into heavy industry. They build power plants, trains, ports and industrial automation equipment. They’ve had to lay off some of their own employees but I’m not aware of any cases of their business putting other people out of work.
Your post completely ignore my first and main sentence.
It’s the timing that makes you an asshole, not your sentiment.
Israel is currently engaging in genocide. I know it. The UN knows it. Dogs know it.
Timing matters. I have family in Austria. I like a lot of things about Austria and I also don’t approve of a lot of things the government does and did.
If someone were to have voiced that sentiment loudly in 1942, they’d probably be an asshole.
That’s great news. The other 9 of the 10 biggest protests were were extremely successful at affecting change.
Since we made such massive progress on all the others, this is clearly a harbinger of social and political progress.
