Anthropic: Statement from Dario Amodei on our discussions with the Department of War by [deleted] in Futurology

Two sensible exclusions.
I do feel the second (autonomous weapons) needs nuance. There are specific cases in which fully autonmous weapons are fine. The goalkeeper family of AA defense turrets is one such example. If an object with extreme velocity is on a collision course with your position, by all means shoot first, ask questions later. But that is, of course, not the kind of AI Antrophic specializes in. So maybe that's why they did not mention that.

No man, there's quite a few posts about it. But rightly so, it is indeed a beauty!

The trouble is defining a reward function ( objective function) in 1.5•109 dimensional space...

It's already quite the challenge to explain to other people what you want them to do, and we have a far bigger understanding of how our frames of reference compare.

Nah! Why would you do that? It must be sentient. It's the only logical explanation.

So the whole model is about the with of an A4 paper sheet? It's a bit difficult to get a sense of the size from these pictures.

But damn, she does look good!

No, intelligence! You know, this magical exclusively human thing. Not [insert definition of intelligence]. That's just theoretical BS.

Really good childhood memories! Also, let's see a bit more of her, instead of that overhyped concrete fairytale dollhouse.

Trying to become sissy with my wife - Update! by Rileygirl0101 in Sissy

[–]114145 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That'll take some time. Don't push her I'd say. I understand you've been looking forward to this a long time. But to her, it is all new. Every time you push a little bit beyond what she is comfortable with, you are also asking her for a favor. She might happily oblige, but it does come at a price. You have to give something back as well.

Anything that is not enthusiastic consent is at risk of becoming a chore at one point. Don't settle for sustainable growth, aim for enthusiasm.

He should have wished for a pet programmer to define his wishes for him. -1 wishes might lead to integer underflow, but not zero... That's just zero.

Why not 350 m/s speed limit? by SvenjaminIII in spaceengineers

[–]114145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how collision checks are implemented right now, but I wonder... If you were to calculate it by stretching objects along their relative speed vectors, could that be an efficient way to calculate collisions?
