You probably don’t need an LLM to assist you, but the average human is terribly incompetent. I work in higher education and even people with PhDs often fail to type up a coherent email.

Should be easy to verify those sales if they are legitimate.

Ew, swapping out real sugar for high fructose corn syrup.

In the US it’s by serving size, which is a non-consistent unit of measurement. They are supposed to say how many mL one serving is, however. But that leaves you to do all the math yourself.

I’d say power creep in Pokemon might even be worse than in Magic. Looking at old cards vs new cards makes it painfully obvious.

Plenty of people have shitty parents and turn out fine. That’s no excuse at all.

Elon has always been a terrible person, but he was once focused on things that society actually needed, like electrifying transportation to avoid climate collapse.

He seems to have gone sharply downhill into total insanity by taking ketamine while locking himself in a rightwing echo chamber. It’s the perfect storm of dissociating from reality.

I was both mistaken and correct.

I say mistaken because here’s what I was thinking: mealworms have been known to metabolize polystyrene for a long time:

I say correct because there is also active work on tailoring BSF larvae to do the same thing:

As far as plastics go, at least it can decompose. Black soldierfly larvae can eat it!

Probably reinforcement learning? LLMs are a bad architecture for something like real time video games

Generally only for small problems. Like things lower than 300 lines of code. And the problem generally can’t be a novel problem.

But that’s still pretty damn impressive for a machine.

WebAssembly is the target, not js, I believe.

Sounds like it’s time to leak a bunch of politician nudes to show them why encryption matters.

Okay but these models are actually pretty interesting when you dive in. Useful yet? Not by a long shot (I’m guessing decades, not years of work). But interesting nonetheless.

People love swapping Minecraft seeds because it allows them to share unique experiences. Like if something really cool generated, other people will want to see that thing happen!

To deny players this would be a huge error - seed hunting is a non-trivial community engagement factor.

Surely the random seed should be considered a necessary part of the input, no?

AI still uses random seeds like other procedural algorithms.

You know who wouldn’t have missed a word there? ChatGPT.

(Not saying it would’ve written a better article but AI is typically good at not making silly typos like humans.)

And let’s be honest, a certain percentage of junior devs never do learn. That’s always been the case, AI or not.

The open paper they published details the algorithms and techniques used to train it, and it’s been replicated by researchers already.
