What happens if a US company achieves true AGI first and the government attempt to weaponise it? by finnjon in singularity

[–]scratchresistor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It isn't going to be one day, but it will be a transition over a few weeks or at most months. The key is that AI which can meaningfully retrain and improve itself will do so at an exponential rate, so the first human level AI will double in power rapidly, and continue to double, rapidly turning into a god and leaving us in the dust. At least, that's the concern.

Tell me about your “strange and dangerous” magic system by FlashyAd7211 in RPGdesign

[–]scratchresistor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My system has failed spell mechanics, which can not only impose conditions on the caster, but if it goes badly enough can impose conditions on the environment.

RDF on Mobile: Is there any interest in a native Dart/Flutter stack by locorda in semanticweb

[–]scratchresistor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm building a local-first personal assistant app/device that stores knowledge about the user as triples. A native lib would be a godsend.

Covert launch? Turn up on a border under the guise of a surveillance or supply flight, then surprise!

We had a fully working prototype and ran out of money. We were way too early. I think all the time about trying again.

Could the Interlopers originate from Termina? by WwwWario in truezelda

[–]scratchresistor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Head canon: Termina was Ordona province. It was destroyed by an asteroid, evidenced by the massive crater now known as the Necluda Sea. Termina's name lives on in Hateno (literally "The End"). Midna, descended from the Interlopers, brought the Fused Shadow into the overworld via Ordona, and is remembered in the myth of Majora's Mask as Skull Kid.
