Leading AI Scientists Warn AI Could Escape Control at Any Moment
  • That's not really machine learning though. If you wanted to go way back, AI research goes back to implementations of hebbian learning in computer science back in the 1950s as a way of emulating human neurons. I was merely pointing out that AI was a computer science "dead end" until restricted Boltzmann machines were revisited by Hinton et al back in 2008 or so, and that 99% of the growth in the field has happened since the early 2010s when we reached a turning point where deep learning models could actually outperform classical statistical models like regression and random forests

  • in the coming decades

    Given that in the past 15 years we went from "solving regression problems a little bit better than linear models some of the time" to what we have now, it's not unfounded to think 15 years from now people could be giving LLMs access to code execution environments

  • ELI5 Using python virtual environment in docker container.
  • It's not necessary but there is no reason not to.

    Pros:

    • production and development programs are more similar
    • upgrading your base image won't affect your python packages
    • you can use multi stage builds to create drastically smaller final images

    Cons:

    • you have to type venv/bin/python3 instead of just python3 in the run line of your dockerfile
  • New idea for a language course
  • When you teach a child what a dinosaur is, you have to do a lot more explaining than when you try and teach an adult what a dinosaur is in french - the child isn't just learning a language for those 10 years.

  • The Covid vaccine just got a lot more expensive—if you're uninsured
  • COVID has long lasting effects across your entire body, it impacts your immune and cardiovascular systems for years after you get it.

    Risks of heart attack, stroke, etc are increased 2.5x in the year after infection, increasing exponentially with the number of times you have been infected. In fact, the risk of pretty much ANY health problem skyrockets following a COVID infection.

  • Where to start with Microcontroller and Python ?
  • So I would say that if you’re explicitly trying to use Python, a Pi is the way to go.

    I will point out you can run micropython on a lot of embedded boards now. I haven't used it, so I don't know if it's actually good or if it's more like those software-gore "here is my python package for building web front ends that is somehow worse than JS" packages you always see on python boards

  • Cords
    Defining usage of AI better
  • This seems more like a collection of examples than an actual attempt at a definition.

    At its core, AI is a program that takes a given input and returns the output that, during it's training phase, would be expected to minimize it's error (or maximize it's reward).
