@ThePrimeagen You say squeal and chatgippity...let them have this one.

@cmuratori @ThePrimeagen How long did you end up standing on top of the poor lad? Hope he's okay.

@MerriamWebster They named it after Hi-Fi. The 'fi' there is fidelity. The change to 'wi' is obviously an allusion to wireless. They even used the term 'wireless fidelity' on their release branding... It's wireless fidelity.

@SamKautz @Bitcoin_Teddy The trade deficit between me and taco bell in ridiculous. All they do is take my money. Thousands of dollars. And then I have a garage sale last week and they don't even show up to buy a dvd? I'm putting tariffs on the crunchwrap supreme.

@jkarttunen @hmurari @aerockrose Yes, that's a game theory answer, which is what Ballmer would be looking for. If you can explain finding a Nash equilibrium that actually guarantees positive expected value (not sure this does) you've likely got the job.

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@MeritumInvest @aerockrose This is the best answer.

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@hmurari @aerockrose He's purposefully picking numbers that take more steps in a binary search. If you can eliminate half with each guess, you're playing into a losing game by binary searching against a rigged choice.

@DavidV_81 @davepl1968 You're getting it. Replace the ethanol farms with solar farms. It's 10x+ more energy to put panels in those places rather than use it for making ethanol.

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@jgndev @davepl1968 Growing corn for ethanol is really inefficient use of land and worse for the environment and yet we're doing that.
50% of all new power capacity in the US is solar right now because it's the cheapest, it's going to be a large part of the grid.

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@GarretisonX @davepl1968 Cities are heat islands, panels are less efficient when hot. Cities have more local pollution blocking/scattering light and leaving oil films on panels. Cities have more complex shading issues with surrounding buildings.

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@mwirkk1 @davepl1968 Arguably both are fine. They are easier to install and more efficient in a field. The amount of corn we grow just for ethanol...worse for the environment and way less energy per the space.

@ronin_v0z @The_AI_Investor Uranium enrichment is to nuclear bombs as datacenter GPUs are AI capabilities...

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@_toj27 @The_AI_Investor Comparing a shitload of datacenter GPUs that can speed up AI training to WMDs is...apt. No one was saying one GPU is a WMD.

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@CameronWoodward @The_AI_Investor @pmarca Just born that way. Leather jacket and all.

@SmokeEx @birdabo There's potential for it to be misaligned and do bad of course but it's not a given that it will 'want' to do that. If you get 100 reward points (they're all you care about) for going outside and coming back, and nothing for running away...

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@JoeGuglielmucci @cmuratori He wasn't arguing to constrain them. If they're really the best they already know what they're doing. If their use of unlimited tokens is less than you expect there might be a reason for that...they're better than the AI output on whatever task.

@cmuratori @XorDev They're "pro small business...being too small to fight back."

@avidgamefan @cmuratori @teej_dv You set up an account for your kid, it now follows all relevant laws. Age restricted apps and sites will probably be forced to deny service based on this OS provided age.

[Jon Hammond @2pt_font]

@cmuratori Under current law raw LLM output isn't copyrightable so the "attacks" are just allegedly violating Anthropic's TOC. Less illegal than what Anthropic has actually done to obtain and use copyrighted works.

@Dorizzdt @Kappische The actual puzzles in his games are amazing. Some people don't like puzzle games. Some people don't like the lack of more explicit narrative. Not everyone's cup of tea and that's okay.
