Was just in Silver Platters in Seattle. They still have one. Touch screen to boot. But it looks like it’s been broken for quite a while.

Interesting. Didn’t know about the google books case. I agree that it applies here.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 day ago:
I think it’s critically important to be very specific about what LLMs are “able to do” vs what they tend to do in practice.
The argument is that the initial training data is sufficiently altered and “transformed” so as not to be breaking copyright. If the model is capable of reproducing the majority of the book unaltered, then we know that is not the case. Whether or not it’s easy to access is irrelevant. The fact that the people performing the study had to “jailbreak” the models to get past checks tells you that the model’s creators are very aware that the model is very capable of producing an un-transformed version of the copyrighted work.
From the end-user’s perspective, if the model is sufficiently gated from distributing copyrighted works, it doesn’t matter what it’s inherently capable of, but the argument shouldn’t be “the model isn’t breaking the law” it should be “we have a staff of people working around the clock to make sure the model doesn’t try to break the law.”

That’s quite a claim, I’d like to see that.

Yet most AI models can recite entire Harry Potter books if prompted the right way, so that’s all bullshit.

Color me a bit skeptic that such a filtration system can remove soap and oil residue from used shower water.

I guess they’ve done quite a bit of research. Not sure I’m qualified to comment on the validity of their conclusions.
I’m also curious how frequently the filter materials need to be replaced.

Can’t speak to the headphones, but they eventually moved to the head lice-free option of one of those directional dome speakers overhead.

If a block of lead were a light year thick, it would have a 50% chance if blocking a neutrino.

Also that’s not that impressive. 30 million devices is roughly one per second year round. Phone manufacturers make many times that in a year.

- Comment on A new cooling technology freezes food without warming the climate 2 weeks ago:
Generally it’s made by first filtering out other gasses (there are materials that will pass nitrogen but block oxygen), and then you just get it super cold with a cryocompressor (uses helium as a refrigerant) to liquify it.

Basically the entire US economy, every employer, many schools, and half of the commercials on TV are telling us to use and trust AI.
Kid was already using the bot for advice on homework and relationships (two things that people are fucking encouraged to do depending on who you ask). The bot shouldn’t give lethal advice. And if it’s even capable of doing that, we all need to take a huuuuuuge step back.
