Isn't the CEO of Intel a bit crazy in regards of Leading his company through praying?


Well, we still don't even have a solution for nuclear waste. It's not like nuclear has no problems.


> Well, we still don't even have a solution for nuclear waste.

We do. The requirement for hugely complex disposal sites is mostly a political one. There's very little long-term hazardous waste that we need to take care of, and we already know how to store it for a very long time.

Only 0.2% of all waste is long term highly radioactive: https://international.andra.fr/sites/international/files/202...


Of course there are solutions. Look at Finland.

Also, how many nuclear waste death do we have per year? How much do we pay for it's current storage? How does it change the climate? How much nuclear waste is there even? There is no nuclear waste problem. It's FUD.


Finland's Posiva long-term disposal plant are still doing trial runs after 40 years of work:

I wonder if its just to see how someone handles stress.


likely not as there are other, more efficient ways to roughly gauge that. It does however test one's conformity to arbitrary processes to some extent albeit in not the most efficient manner as well...


Well, we can't even get biases out of humans in any reliable way. Maybe we will do better with machines.


We won't, because the machines are trained on data created by humans.

We won't, because the machine results people want will be those that appeal to their biases.


Exactly. And it’s not even a new phenomenon, we know our algorithms are biased.

When you see an idea pushed/accelerated to an absurd conclusion, you might more easily see what's wrong with it.


You won’t. That’s why Poe’s law is a thing.

Possibly, possibly. But those extremes are not what you get from an effective bias appeal.


I believe GPT-4 pre-rlhf was much more accurate overall.

If you finetune it in formats that humans likes, it actually gains similar biases.

I believe the ‘sparks of AGI’ talks about this, where models can much more accurately predict the probability of events than humans.

After RLHF, it mimicks human bias. So it might be that we can create these models, but we just don’t like them/like to use them.


RLHF = nerfing and censorship

What, did you think the plebs would get access to the real deal?


If so, we irrational humans will just reject the validity of machines.


As someone who does a lot of fitness, I'm pretty happy in the Garmin ecosystem.


Ecosystem, which don't allow me to download track from my watches to smartphone when I don't have internet access...

I don't say, that Google is better, but Garmin is not so good :-(


When i look at the html of the website i see a lot of divs.


Because it works pretty well and offers basically all development tools and WSL2 as well. And some Developers like the Windows Desktop. (I know this might be an unpopular opinion)


"mediocrity will be even more available" - so basically all the stuff that is in the top 100 charts will be more available


Perhaps I'm wrong, but this text reads as if dit were generated by ChatGPT.


Yes.
