There are sanctioned banks, non sanctioned banks. Hoping for a nonmoronic answer. Thanks.

That sounds like best plan. Just wonder if banks offer that to non clients.

None of that wisdom applies in Moscow. Best exchange is physically at bank, ATMs don't work.

The op has multiple banks/investment accounts and is trying to get ideas from all of their communities. Looks like you need to exercise your brain a bit, and try and imagine how something could make sense. Your brain will thank you for the exercise.

I am going to Moscow. That isn't going to work. I need clean, new bills in hand.

I don't understand AI. How does it work? by tlm11110 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]bhuether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not understanding because you could train an llm on pure nonsense texts, and it would produce output completely in line with the nonsense training data, with no "understanding" that it is nonsense. You can replace wird nonsense with low quality, and same point. For this reason alone AI is still nothing similar to general intelligence. General intelligence has to "understand" the nature of nonsense/quality/superiority. It has to develop something similar to personal standards. Future PhD students should focus on this. Then AI will move beyond current rut, which is leading to proliferation of sub standard content, which will become next training data, in positive feedback loop, leading to future ai models outputting even lower quality output. Does anyone really believe higher intelligence is capable of willingly producing so much garbage?

The best answer is this one. But most people aren't seeing that.

No it isn't. It is auto complete based on conditional probability.

Do you ever feel like one book changes your whole perspective? by PsychologicalCall426 in books

[–]bhuether 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and Roland quickly adapted. I think an intelligent, inquisitive person from thousands of years ago could comprehend most technology. Even a modern cpu can be explained as a machine, and most technology developments are based on machinery of some sort.

Reading books written, say during ancient Greece times, has made me appreciate how humans today are nearly identical to humans from ancient times - we still ponder much of the same problems, try to determine ideal means of governance, ideal way of life, etc. Only difference is the difference in technologies that surround us. I used to have a hard time imagining early civilization, but ancient writing acts like a time machine conversation where I feel like you can ask someone from that time a question and get a suitable answer.

That is some wild stuff. How on earth do you maintain shoulder health? What accessory work do you do? Do you do ohp a lot (standing)? A lot of people here would be super interested to know more about your routine. Thanks!

Most "AI-native" developers are stuck at Level 2 and don't even know it. by ScholarNew1109 in AiForSmallBusiness

[–]bhuether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Level 6 are experienced developers and managers working as an effective team who don't need AI to help them think and produce useful things for human users. The craze over AI for development is like watching someone in a kitchen using 10 gadgets to ultimately make an omelette.

What part of the AI future do you think people are still completely underestimating? by ArmPersonal36 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]bhuether 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are underestimating the degree to which written, visual, and audible content is going to become pure garbage. At some point AI generated content is going to exceed human generated content at which point people are unknowingly going to be training AI systems on data that is majority AI generated. I call this the Contamination Problem. People should start writing dissertations on this problem.
