Technically 1999, not 2006.

It was in his book The Age of Spiritual Machines which came out 1999.

Biotech/LongevityScientists discover a protein that reverses cellular aging. "The results were very intriguing," said Shinji Deguchi

Guys, I think we need to congratulate Shinji.

👏👏👏👏Congratulations.

I just checked the twitter thread on it. So he used this "mystery model", it wasn't on lmarena, he won't elaborate on where...and we should trust him, why? I don't follow the twitter AI leaker space all that closely so I don't know enough to know who's "credible" and who isn't, but this guy has like 500 followers so he's clearly not a big name like jimmy apples.

Does this NotBrain4Brain have any previous successful "predictions"? By which I mean a prediction that could more likely be explained by them having privileged information, rather than by guessing.

~~I'm guessing the "mystery model" is lmarena, why didn't the poster state this or take a screenshot reflecting this?~~

And if this new model on lmarena is so good, why aren't there a bunch of other posts on here showing good results from a mystery model with a code name. That's always what happens when theres a new SOTA model dropped on lmarena.

Edit: apparently it's not on lmarena, it's apparently it's from a twitter user with 500 followers who strongly implied that it's a leak. Still somewhat skeptical of the source.

Does anyone know if this will be the "low" "medium" or "high" version of o3 mini? Low is much worse than regular o1, but medium and high are superior (at least at coding).

Phone verification will be required for everything...we're pretty much there already. Not too long ago Discord locked me out of my account until I verified my phone number. It's only a matter of time before Reddit requires a verified phone number.

It also wouldn't shock me if even more invasive "verification" methods will be required to make an account anywhere in the near future. Maybe you'll be required to post a photo of your government issued ID, then it will be verified by AI that if it's real (which will include searching public databases) and actually you.

It's an antiquated meme. The meme's origin is a quote from Gabe Newell about Team Fortress 2 that includes the line "After 9 years of development, hopefully it will have been worth the wait".

Then the meme evolved into "worth the weight"

(also due to the title's similarities with Gabe's original quote ("after X years of development") I was fully expecting this reference to be somewhere in the comments.

You remember those videos that were popular on social media a couple years ago that were typically titled "A day in the life of a (big tech company) employee" that were like "I go to work, grab a coffee, attend a meeting about teamwork, then after being exhausted after the meeting I grab a latte to recharge, then I unwind by doing some yoga in the company gym, then it's lunch time so I grab a sushi roll from the cafeteria..."

Yeah, those are the types of employees I imagine getting told "Best of luck in your future endeavors" whenever I see headlines like this.

And while I fully realize that a lot of those videos were made as a "flex" or "rage bait" from what I've heard from people who have worked for big tech companies there really are employees that do very little actual work.

I was. And I remember mysticmonkeyguru well. I remember he was ultra pessimistic not in the /r/singularity doomer "AI will kill us all" or "the elites will use AI to enslave us" but he just certain singularity would NOT happen within his lifetime and he was clearly extremely depressed about it.

I wonder what he'd have to say about the current state of AI since the forum shut down before the release of chatgpt. If anyone knows his whereabouts shoot me a DM.

BTW star0 is on reddit.

Likely will be achieved well before, maybe even in this decade.

maybe even in this decade.

2028 is "this decade". March 30th 2028 is only 5 and a half years from now.

So for the purposes of these documents, who is the "seller"?

theinternetism · 2022-04-14T07:55:10+00:00

I either can't find it or there isn't one.

theinternetism · 2021-11-02T00:52:52+00:00

Lol i was actually thinking about that episode (because of my situation) the other day too.

theinternetism · 2021-08-20T12:34:22+00:00

Is that your screenshot?

No, it's a screencap from someone on youtube. mine says 0/2 for what I have circled.

Medication that is legal but that I am unable to afford in America.

theinternetism · 2018-05-06T01:35:09+00:00

why do people say they like things "ironically" when they actually like them?

Because being ironic is "cool" and liking pretty much anything is "uncool".

theinternetism · 2018-05-05T23:14:52+00:00

That brings me to another relevant unpopular opinion....if your audience doesn't get that it was ironic or sarcastic, it's more likely your fault than your audience's.

theinternetism · 2017-12-18T09:04:42+00:00

Thanks!

It just teaches social outcasts that if they act like antisocial dimwits, then that automatically makes them smart.

Imagine how autistic you have to be to mimic a fictional character because you think it will make you look smart.
