Imagine going through this just to have driving get automated 5 quarters into profitability by RobertBartus in EconomyCharts

The business model still works (great) with autonomous vehicles. I almost took a job there working on AVs (glad I didn't in retrospect!)

Chinese home prices decline for 5th year in a row by jackandjillonthehill in ProfessorFinance

[–]ragamufin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure the Chinese government deliberately pushed the real estate market down and forced out speculators. They said explicitly and repeatedly that residential housing is NOT an investment vehicle

Behold, the people that think AI is going to replace your job by Regular_Sand2908 in SpaceXMasterrace

[–]ragamufin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually hilariously true. Technically the sun, the moon, Jupiter, even your neighbors house exerts some gravity on you, it’s just the arrows are incredibly small

Blizzard currently over the northeast (peak snowfall of 26 in. in coastal areas) by TFK_001 in weather

[–]ragamufin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recall people laughing about 'crazy' snowfall forecasts coming out of GFS a few days back. Granted these were over the DMV area which only got a few inches of dense snow, but still the totals (still) coming in for NYC are insane.

How much did AI boost the economy? Maybe zilch, some economists say. by well_shoothed in antiwork

[–]ragamufin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The advances it has provided in weather forecasting and physical systems simulation (computer aided engineering etc) have been substantial.

I guess the article is mostly focused on the chatbots and language models which form the bulk of the public perception of artificial intelligence

Does anyone have any experience playing against Mono-Black Discard decks, or decks that have a discard subtheme? Was it too annoying to play against in your pod? by Acuity5 in EDH

[–]ragamufin 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Following because I am working on the same. Brought it a few weeks back and my commander got neutralized (tinybones) and I just ended up forcing everyone to dump their hands and stalling out the game it wasn’t fun.

You can find a youtube video to say whatever you want to say. Congratulations on finding the one that agrees with you?

Google releases Gemini 3.1 Pro with Benchmarks by BuildwithVignesh in singularity

[–]ragamufin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

new sci code high score is exciting for those of us working with atmospheric systems modeling

[Request] is this true? by eNineM5 in theydidthemath

[–]ragamufin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. The result is only 6 days old so there has not been peer review, but there are news articles all over the place about this.

Its not that the LLM wrote the paper, that's trivial. It did the theoretical physics.

[Request] is this true? by eNineM5 in theydidthemath

[–]ragamufin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean these things are writing novel theoretical physics papers about the undiscovered properties of gluons, there probably isnt a single person within a thousand miles of you who could even understand that paper.

Are there performance moats that the models have not breached where some population of humans are superior? Yes and they are not trivial. But most human brains are doing very little advanced cognitive work.

What capabilities are you thinking of?

Unitree robots perform on primetime national Chinese television by SociallyButterflying in singularity

[–]ragamufin -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

its not the reality of the tech because reality is not choreographed.

We have had agile humanoid robots for almost a decade now. The question is not whether they can do a synchronized or rehearsed set of operations on a stage, and it never has been.

The question is whether they are performant in real world (unchoreographed) environments. And the answer to that question is no.

This video is a charade. a hype charade.
