Lead batteries are also cheap.

No.
We know how they work. They’re purely statistical models. They don’t create, they recreate training data based on how well it was stored in the model.

Those gains won’t continue into the future. Transformers are a mostly flushed technology, at least from the strictly tech/math side. New use cases or specialized sandboxes are still new tech (keyboard counts as a sandbox).

Well, the U.K. recently tried to require citizens own and maintain a propriety device completely beholden to U.S. companies in order to be alive (effectively), so.

- Comment on America Isn’t Ready for What AI Will Do to Jobs 6 days ago:
The TLDR of this article is “we can’t predict the impact of AI because we can’t predict the future.” It takes apparently 15,000 words to say that. It just talks about what people are saying about AI without any purpose, along with random irrelevant things. This article is a waste of time.

There are gobs of money to be made selling enterprise software, but dulling the impact of AI is also a useful feint. This is a technology that can digest a hundred reports before you’ve finished your coffee, draft and analyze documents faster than teams of paralegals, compose music indistinguishable from the genius of a pop star or a Juilliard grad, code—really code, not just copy-paste from Stack Overflow—with the precision of a top engineer. Tasks that once required skill, judgment, and years of training are now being executed, relentlessly and indifferently, by software that learns as it goes.
Literally not true.
It can’t “analyze” documents. There’s no thinking involved with these machines. It outputs the statistically most likely thing that looks like analysis.
And it’s not even close as good as the top engineer. If it was there would be no engineers TODAY.

- Comment on TV remotes should have an easy-to-find by touch "volume" toggle button that toggles between two volume settings. 1 week ago:
That’s a reason but unfortunately you’re in the minority.
This feature would need support on the TVs or receivers too. There’d need a set volume to x command instead of just up and down.

Boooo
- Comment on TV remotes should have an easy-to-find by touch "volume" toggle button that toggles between two volume settings. 1 week ago:
Right up until you accidentally jump scare yourself by toggling to 100 or something.
There’s little reason for a user to not want immediate, mostly continuous volume control rather than jumps.
