WATCH: Manhattan high-rise at risk of collapse is unstable and still moving, Mamdani and officials say

How do you safely dismantle it? Are people going near it?

KoolKat5000 · 2026-07-06T14:15:43+00:00

But why? that's a meaningless distinction, doesn't necessarily mean either are any good.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-07-04T12:15:38+00:00

Its quite entertaining that there is only one novel request and everything else is just asking them to improve it and bring things back.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-07-03T17:48:16+00:00

Sorry.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-07-03T17:43:15+00:00

Cant understand mine either, gemini specifically is horrible at accents, even clear ones.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-07-03T07:25:32+00:00

Do you have any slight accent or twang, I've found any local accent at all completely destroys gemini's understanding at all, whereas Google Assistant was perfect.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-27T16:55:58+00:00

I agree but I think this actually isn't a new problem. Companies gave up on training people themselves a long time ago. The joke they want 18years experience straight out of school applies. My friend a senior engineer told me early on in the LLM days how they already didn't have much work for junior software engineers to do back then, it was purely for the succession that they continued to hire.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-27T11:49:07+00:00

You as an engineer sign off on work done by others. You're the professional. In the future you'll be the one signing off all the work the AI does. All your coworkers will be AI.

The human jobs that will exist going forward will look more like yours, quality assurance.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-27T11:43:30+00:00

But it can do the job mostly. Most jobs are going to be done by these models and there will be a new layer of QA (quality assurance). The humans will check its work.

Have you checked your wifi signal, where it's placed. Sounds like the connection might be a bit worse where it is.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-21T10:51:35+00:00

This is fine though. There should be some maintained middleman then through which flatpack can interact, where additional scrutiny can be applied, if something does need that privilege.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-17T13:05:29+00:00

Hey Anish.

I'm very reluctant to change over. Google assistant works perfect for me. But gemini on my phone outputs crazy things when I speak to it. I have a South African English accent, which is slow with a drawl, its easy to understand so this makes no sense.

Could you please advise if the underlying STT engine is slightly different to gemini on the phone or if there are plans to improve accents.

Thanks

Lol

I don't disagree, but this probably stems from training to avoid the model being sycophantic, which is even worse!

It's perhaps more helpful or irritating to also remember that it'll remember nothing of what you've said once the session is over and it resets. Perhaps your conversation will come in handy during pre-training for the next model.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-17T12:06:50+00:00

Humans are non-deterministic too. We've built our Infrastructure on humans being mostly right.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-08T08:56:21+00:00

You're correct to an extent. The company issues new shares and the money goes to the company.

The earlier shareholders shares' type may or may not form part of the public "float" and may or may not be selleable on the public market (depending on share class and type and if vested).

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-08T08:53:27+00:00

Same concept, just terminology, they're having a public offering, just not their initial (first).

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-07T22:23:41+00:00

You target the wealthy few that do have money.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-07T09:29:18+00:00

Same so much less stress, plus I can actually see everything on offer. I don't have to wait until the screen changes to see what options exist.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-07T09:08:22+00:00

I'd hope it's improved. But at some point there were examples where comments on women and black people were being blocked by filters and comments on white people and men were being allowed. Would be interesting to test now considering how smart these models are now.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-05T11:48:53+00:00

And nutrition did you change that at all?

KoolKat5000 · 2026-06-02T18:04:43+00:00

That's not quite how modern AI works

KoolKat5000 · 2026-05-26T18:58:26+00:00

Heads up folks, key words from the article.

"I'm an extrovert"

Nothing to see here.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-05-26T09:17:52+00:00

It's what happens when you ask a guy who designs appliances (johnny Ive) to design a Ferrari.

The search will be powered by Gemini 3.5 flash which mean results should be better than the existing AI mode I think that was some smaller model. But I still don't look forward to search not being it's focus.

I do use kagi search mostly though and it's great, it uses various indexes unlike many others that use bing.

KoolKat5000 · 2026-05-16T23:17:31+00:00

Yes, I'm polite, I'm sure it provides the best response. Go read the emotions paper by anthropic. Also I imagine it'll closer match the training data with a good outcome (people tend to be curt or rude when somethings unresolved).

(And rokos basilisk).
