I think they did that in castles, because it's generally pretty hard to build castles. If the enemy is inside the walls you are practically done anyway.

Sounds like an urban legend. Who do you mean anyway? James Couzens? Harry Bennett? Charles Sorensen? His son Edsel? They all died of natural causes.

Not if you payed for an "apple" but got compost. But of that's your thing you could try to eat it ๐Ÿคฃ

First time I read about it and even more surprised that for 38,000$ they don't even talk details. They talk about videos, audio, photos, etc. but how much storage space?

Update: Ok looks like it's based on the business/creator plan ... so 50GB. There isn't even a bulk discount because the creator plan is 25$/month, so just 30,000$ per 100 years ๐Ÿค” The entire "deal" is just nuts.

The same is true for your brain. Show me the neurons that are fluent in Chinese. Of course the LLM is just executing code. And if we have AGI it will also just be "executing code" but so does your brain. It's not exactly code (but maye AGI will be analog computers, so not exactly code either) but the laws of physics dictate what your brain does. The laws of physics don't understand Chinese, the atoms and molecules don't understand Chinese. "Understanding Chinese" is an emergent property.

Think about it that way: Assume every person you know (execpt you) is just some form of Chinese Room ... You first of all couldn't prove that and second it wouldn't matter at all.

Your brain is also "just a Chinese room". It's just physic, chemistry and biology. There is no magic inside your brain. If a "Chinese room" is fast enough and can fool everyone into "believing" that it's fluent in chinese, than the room speaks chinese.

Quite the contrary. I have a red-green deficiency (and so do about 6% of men). Viridis Color scale is pretty nice but two much colors are hard to read for a lot of people

I also think that this is what will happen (not only discussed) but unless we master fusion it's practically just fixing a symptom and we'd have to do that for quite a while and the oceans will probably become too acidic.

There are a lot of YouTubers just playing with them, but I think Jim Browning is the only one actually taking them down.

OC is probably from an EU county where everything has to normalized to p. 100g because everything else is just insane.

I wrote a (very long) blog post about those viral math problems and am looking for feedback, especially from people who are not convinced that the problem is ambiguous.

It's about a 30min read so thank you in advance if you really take the time to read it, but I think it's worth it if you joined such discussions in the past, but I'm probably biased because I wrote it :)
