"Sailor Moon overthrows the God-Emperor of Mankind and takes his throne" is exactly the shot in the arm 40k needs.
“To suddenly start building data centres so much denser in terms of power use, chips cost 10 times as much, there is unproven demand, which eat all up available grid power & suitable real estate — all that is an extraordinary challenge and a gamble."
What could go wrong?

*people generally might be less skeptical, I should say
Okay, but when I asked what your approach for that was you just said you’re hoping it won’t have the problems that other LLM models will. I might be less skeptical if you’d be willing to describe a methodology beyond just “we reckon this one won’t do that”
So fundamentally what you’re saying is that you don’t have a good response to Ketan’s criticism above
So your approach is that you’re hoping, against the evidence about all existing language models, that this system won’t hallucinate? And you’re planning to publish this solution to one of the major technical challenges of the field not as a groundbreaking paper but as a Dr Carl chatbot?
What’s your approach for that? Because as far as I understand it LLMs aren’t really capable of distinguishing fact from fiction …
There has been a step forward in global climate accountability – the International Court of Justice confirms that states have legal obligations to prevent climate harm.
Despite Australian Government pushback, this international law protects our future from fuelling the climate crisis.

Started reading that story about Icarus and it’s helped my grindset mentality! No breaks, days off, or sleep. Been so busy that I haven’t been able to finish it. No spoilers please!
Yeah, lichens! #Biodiversity

Remember how in 2021 we were all told that NFTs were the future and even if we didn't like them they were inevitable and we should all get used to it because this technology has so many obvious advantages? Boy they sure showed us huh.
Assume a conservative movement toward the South Pole over time. 1cm. 1mm. Whatever. It’s only a matter of time before we reach the moon. FYI, the rate of movement is much higher than you think it is
This article is being written like it’s a big shock that “Large Reasoning Models” aren’t good at reasoning, but they’re literally just LLMs trained to talk to themselves to refine the answer before responding to a prompt. It’s the same crap architecture with a lazy bandaid slapped over its flaws
Take one minute: go to bit.ly/IsraelOnNotice and send a letter to the Israeli government, UN officials, and diplomatic missions demanding that Israel abide by international law and refrain from attacking, sabotaging or otherwise interfering with the #Madleen and her mission.
Thanks! Really interesting way to examine public sentiment on policy - seems like there might be a lot of things where people might be aligning themselves politically on the basis of an inaccurate understanding of current policy settings
That’s pretty interesting . Do you have a source? Genuinely asking here - not trying to question the point.
But that illusion has found an audience that doesn't merely want to be tricked, they have seen a magician pull a rabbit out of a hat and are now dedicating their lives to speculating on the complex ecology that must exist inside the hat to support the rabbits inside, the magician be damned.
Exactly. The thing he’s claiming AI provides to software engineering is actually provided by libraries and APIs. I know that, and I’ve never developed software in my life
Robert Brenner on the 'demand-supply' interpretations of the Black Death
I’m a kiwi living overseas and my understanding has always been that it’s an issue but a manageable one. Sounds like it’s gotten worse and is maybe not so manageable any more
The thing is, it’s not even incorrect! Any input is asking the question “what’s an approximation of the words statistically most likely to appear in response to this?” It’s impossible for LLMs to be consistently truthful at an architectural level. No idea how people are trusting them

“Say what you will about the firefighting acumen of Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, dude, at least the man learned to play the god damned fiddle.”
Those who have won capitalism's game have done so by unnaturally positioning themselves at the headwaters of the natural generative stream created by human society, then damned it for themselves. Having thus stolen as much as they can, these fools believe their theft means they invented water.
It’s the first time a frog—or any amphibian—has been observed pollinating a plant, researchers reported in 2023.
