“You don’t need (and therefore shouldn’t want) this obviously good thing” has this connotation that the Minecraft team has been wasting their time on pointless features, when in reality first-party support for a feature is nearly always more stable than a mod.

Plus read the article, the author is a vehement hater of Minecraft. What a joke.

What a weird passive aggressive headline. A better default is a good thing, and doesn’t stop modders from doing their own thing.

Like every day? Yeah it’s worse now but Google is still useful for a lot of things.

That being said, I do have AdBlock so it’s a different internet for me.

Dead Internet theory has never been a bigger threat. I believe that’s the number one danger - endless quantities of advertising and spam shoved down our throats from every possible direction.

The system in place is “open weights” models. These AI companies don’t have a huge head start on the publicly available software, and if the value is there for a corporation, most any savvy solo engineer can slap together something similar.

Eh I’m fine with the illegal harvesting of data. It forces the courts to revisit the question of what copyright really is and hopefully erodes the stranglehold that copyright has on modern society.

Let the companies fight each other over whether it’s okay to pirate every video on YouTube. I’m waiting.

Of course AGI is possible, human brains can’t violate P=NP any more than silicon can.

Our current approach may be flawed for sure, but there’s nothing special about nature compared to technology, other than the fact it’s had a billion times longer to work on its tech.

That’d be preem

Right, simply scaling won’t lead to AGI, there will need to be some algorithmic changes. But nobody in the world knows what those are yet. Is it a simple framework on top of LLMs like the “atom of thought” paper? Or are transformers themselves a dead end? Or is multimodality the secret to AGI? I don’t think anyone really knows.

The hell, infrastructure strikes are how Ukraine is dealing the most damage to Russia. Was Ukraine even involved in this decision?

I have a solar cell charging station, but I suspect a lot of people don’t.

Curious what makes Realmz so replayable. BG3 has so many unique storylines and endings you’d be hard pressed to play them all. Not to mention character classes and subclasses.

How will they enforce this? And won’t the actual effect be the improvement of LLMs to the point they can no longer be distinguished from human text? I suspect this will end up being like a slow GAN training the LLMs.

Yep, unlike the US, they aren’t shooting themself in the foot. As they industrialize and invest in Africa, they are displacing the established world order.

Agreed. If I was a little state I’d be working on my nuclear program like mad right now.

Plausibility is not evidence, however. I think it’s dangerous to try to place blame on somebody for nothing more than a maybe.

What’s there to debate? You put your data in a public site, it gets read by anybody who wants it. Period.

Right. The problem is not the fact it consumes the information, the problem is if the user uses it to violate copyright. It’s just a tool after all.

Like, I’m capable of violating copyright in infinitely many ways, but I usually don’t.

It’s only theft if they support laws preventing their competitors from doing it too. Which is kind of what OpenAI did, and now they’re walking that idea back because they’re losing again.

I mean, a lot of people can also charge at home. It’s way cheaper and more convenient.
