That’s how it works right?

Now Walmart can’t sell to the post office?

Omg, this is so dumb. I feel real physical pain reading this.

I find it funny when a field of knowledge needs to create an "evidence-based" branch, implying that everything else was pulled out from their asses. 🀣

The model controlling the car has fewer than 1k params and gazes at a single point in each frame.

I retract my comment. It just told me that as x goes to 0, softplus goes to 0.

Gemini 3.1 is what I expected from Gemini 3.0. Much better for math and science so far.

"yeah, sure, but maybe it only knows how to make birds riding 2-wheeled vehicles"

Behold the hang gliding marmot!

I just wanted to verify if they were training on Simon's benchmark and tried with a vulture riding a scooter. ANIMATED!

I just wish I had his eloquence. Instead, I'll limit myself to highly recommending this thread and say "yeah, what he said" (insert "DiCaprio pointing at the TV" meme).

Maybe I should have directed my rant only towards OpenAI.

Don't cite AGI to me, bitch, I was there when the term was coined. And btw, it used to mean just "non-narrow AI", not (super-)human(ity)-level whatever. That goalpost has already moved to the other end of the field.

Wait, what does it mean by "you'll get it dirty again on the way back"??

Giving users shitty models in the free-tier is indeed doing a lot of damage to AI companies and to AI in general. Whenever I read that AI did some stupid shit, it is an outdated or non-reasoning fast model. Just give every logged-in user the top models with very strict usage limits.

Omfg, you're so dishonest.

Totally, that very post is proof.

I could frame it that way, but then I'd be wrong (and look stupid).

That's coming from the most clueless person about the subject I saw today.

It's so funny to think about the fact that there are people out there STILL using free, weak models to bash on AI. Dishonesty or plain stupidity?
