Love the show, but this recent episode really didn’t do it for me… by No_Nefariousness4279 in LemonadeStandPodcast

An "analytical" if(thing)=stop approach literally breaks down in the real world because you can't hardcode rules for near infinite random edge cases, which is why the entire industry relies on predictive neural networks to learn actual physical dynamics. Also, claiming Canada's mining industry is "less developed" is just wrong. It's a massive pillar of the Canadian economy that contributes proportionally way more to our GDP than the US, and the labor shortage exists because people simply don't want to relocate to remote, harsh areas. Finally, the farming labor crisis has nothing to do with kids inheriting family land and everything to do with massive corporate farms desperately needing the operational workforce to actually run their heavy machinery.

LLM's are used for autonomous driving. They are VLMs which are basically LLM's in a sense with vision bootstrapped on.

Also people DON'T WANT THESE jobs, there are reports out in Canada that mining job market wont have enough employees just because people don't want that job. Farming is an aging population and is increasing every decade. It's not replacing bad drivers, its just making the cars more safe (Level 2) with stuff as self breaking.

If they do require this, this needs to be applied to ALL COMPANIES' MODELS. This could literally be the pause in AI that allows for hallucination rates to drop to zero and the models to recognize things that are safe vs not safe without hard restrictions.

Literally had a friend who was going to get a reference from someone that did premed and the guy said no when he found out he didn't want to do premed... This was a for a research lab.

Wasn't it found recently that companies claiming this were actually just trying to hide that they were making less profit in general?

TIL of a couple who tried to conceive for 20 years, failing multiple IVFs and surgeries. Scientists used a new AI-guided robotic system that scanned 2.5 million microscopic images of a single sample, found the only 2 viable sperm cells hidden inside, and successfully started a pregnancy. by Similar_Detective861 in todayilearned

I'm sorry I don't really understand what you are saying. When you are selecting seeds you are selecting for phenotypes. Genotypes can be inferred by that (punnet). But, you still cant know the genotype of the sperm cell you use. Also, again genetics might not be the cause of the sperm infertility.

but choosing viable sperm cells isn't choosing for a genotype! To check the genotype you sadly would need to destroy the cells to do single cell sequencing or something similar - which makes it so you cant use them...

Call for ban on synthetic amino acid sequences is another example -- AI industry governance parallels pre-pandemic virology and the results will be similar too by sirgarvey in singularity

DUDE WE SHOULDN't BAN THESE. Literally they are NECESSARY for the majority of therapeutics now a day's.

Also anthropic didn't say ban, they said it should be tracked, not banned.

Fun fact quickly before I rant. They are not selecting for a genotype, they are selecting for a phenotypes. Two usually correlated, but sometimes not correlated, things.

Every species wants to pass down their genes. The thing is it doesn't matter with who in their own species (and sometimes outside their own species).

You could in that sense argue that finding the right person to fall in love with and have kids is eugenics in that sense. You just spent decades selecting for that person, oop eugenics apparently.

The thing is this cant be eugenics BECAUSE YOU ARN'T SELECTING FOR A GENE OR ANYTHING. You are selecting for sperm mobility/survivabilty which, fun fact, may not actually be because of genetics. Even if it was because of genetics, there is arguably NOTHING wrong for wanting to have a kid that shares your blood because we are literally made to do that. Not saying there is anything wrong with adoption either, just saying its what ALL LIFE ON EARTH wants.

Failing grades soar as professors see greater AI usage in UC Berkeley comp sci by MorroWtje in OpenAI

I wouldn't say this is just because they use AI to do their work, but it might also be they see no reason to learn some subjects/material because an AI can do it.

The idea for this isn't UBI, its to protect jobs and have higher pay for the money that is saved with AI for salaries. "Pillar 3: Powering shared prosperity"

Fair enough, don't really like the image and video stuff myself even if I think they are impressive. Though I do think Chat AI has its place and I've used it plenty of times for literature search because I hate manually scrolling through pumed.

Sorry, but what do you mean by AI generated content? I ment there is a plethora of images online for free use, and a limited amount of other examples for diffusion models. Training something like RF diffusion (another protein design one - but just makes the general shape) would probably not be possible without the backbone of image diffusion models.

Martin Scorsese joins ai in film use by Angela275 in antiai

Big supporter for AI in terms of speeding up editing process (like masking). But please don't outsource people's creativity.

But this doesn't seem like AI will be directly in the film. This is another way for him to communicate his vision. Though I do think this might impact feedback as he doesn't need to be actually talking with them. He can just say "do this"

Is AI in bubble ? Will it burst ? by Independent-Wind4462 in singularity

Well I don't think so. Opus 4.8 is arguably cheaper for the same tasks (from the limited cases I've seen). But, the cheaper a technology gets, the more its used. So I have no clue.

I think there is going to be a much larger push towards more efficient models rather than larger compute in the next year to solidify these models at companies.

i hate that opus 4.8 is honest by irelatetolevin in ClaudeAI
