I love that the best modern take on fixing many of Fallout New Vegas' graphics and stability problems is to just inject a translation layer to make it use Vulkan, cause nobody can be asked to use DirectX 9.
That modding community is insane!
I had a great time addressing the House of Lords about extinction risk from AGI. They were attentive and discussed some parallels between where we are now and non-nuclear proliferation efforts during the Cold War. It certainly provided me with some food for thought, and some hope.
AI is on an exponential, things are moving so, so incredibly fast. As we learned with COVID, there are only two times to react to an exponential - too early or too late.
I think there should be a complete moratorium on development of AIs using unprecedented levels of computing power. Every time we do the next bigger AI run, we don’t know what’s going to pop out on the other side. Someday, it’s going to be Russian Roulette, and if you ever find yourself playing Russian Roulette, I have a recommendation: Stop.
But the AGI companies are not stopping. And this is where the government comes in.
When asked by the audience what exactly these recommendations to address risk from AI would look like, I recommended:
1. Liability for Developers and Users - strict liability for damage caused by AI systems that apply not just to the user, but also to the developer. If you develop a voice cloning system, and this is used by criminals to commit crimes, you should be liable too.
2. A Cap on Computing Power - companies cannot exceed a predetermined amount of ‘compute’ (computing power) when training their AIs. The more ‘compute’ used to power these AI systems, the more capable and dangerous they become. We recommend setting this cap on compute at 10^24 FLOP (around the size of ChatGPT).
3. A Global AI ‘Kill Switch’ - where governments build the infrastructure to be able to shut down powerful AI systems deployments and training runs if needed, and regularly test it with fire drills.
We at Conjecture look forward to further engaging with UK legislators.
I love the recent uproar within the Titanfall 2 community.
With the Multiplayer finally fixed out of the blue a couple of days ago, and the recent "hints", I adore how everyone just loves the game too much to hold back on our hope for TF3 anymore.
Please be true.
- Titanfall 2 playlists have been updated every week.
- They fixed the matchmaking crashes.
- They put the game on sale for $3.
- Apex's current season is called Resurrection.
- Resurrection ends Oct 31, right around Titanfall 2's 7th anniversary.
I need my pills.
@Kinsi55 Wäre auch bereit nen NDA oder sowas zu unterschreiben. Geht mir nur um einen Deut in die richtige Richtung, um alles weitere kümmere ich mich dann selber :)
@Kinsi55 Hey, ist zwar schon ne Weile her und ich weiß du willst nicht viel dazu teilen, wollte trotzdem fragen ob du mich kurz PNen kannst. Habe wegen einem Uni Projekt Interesse an dem HID Protokoll (Hardware eher nicht so) und du hast es bis jetzt am weitesten entschlüselt.
LG Leo
7. I fund, entirely, a new Call of Duty where I'm every character and I voice every character (whole new single player campaign). A used game store in Omaha gets 50 copies and that's it.
