At its face value, base elements are not enormously complicated. But we can’t even properly model any element other than hydrogen, it’s all approximations because quantum mechanics is so complicated. And then there’s molecules, that are even more hopelessly complicated, and we haven’t even gotten to proteins! By comparison our best transistors look like toys.

I did not immediately dismiss LLM, my thoughts come from experience, observing the pace of improvement, and investigating how and why LLMs work.

They do not think, they simply execute an algorithm. Yeah that algorithm is exceedingly large and complicated, but there’s still no thought, there’s no learning outside of training. Unlike humans who are always learning, even if they don’t look like it, and our brains are constantly rewiring themselves, LLMs don’t.

I’m certain in the future we will get true AI, but it’s not here yet.

Yeah a lot of it is messy, but they are not being replicated by commodity gpus.

LLMs have no intelligence. They are just exceedingly well at language, which has a lot of human knowledge in it. Just read claudes system prompt and tell me it’s still smart, when it needs to be told 4 separate times to avoid copyright.

Current Ai has no shot of being as smart as humans, it’s simply not sophisticated enough.

And that’s not to say that current llms aren’t impressive, they are, but the human brain is just on a whole different level.

And just to think about on a base level, LLM inference can run off a few gpus, roughly order of 100 billion transistors. That’s roughly on par with the number of neurons, but each neuron has an average of 10,000 connections, that are capable of or rewiring themselves to new neurons.

And there are so many distinct types of neurons, with over 10,000 unique proteins.

On top of there over a hundred neurotransmitters, and we’re not even sure we’ve identified them all.

And all of that is still connected to a system that integrates all of our senses, while current AI is pure text, with separate parts bolted onto it for other things.

Still my first time seeing it. And as a physicist who wants to strive to improve my field we should know these things.

I mean you do have a messaging problem. Your leadership has received bad messaging about what “AI” can do!

No offenses, but I’m gonna put a lot more weight behind a peer reviewed Nature paper, rather than some random podcaster.

The explained their methodology pretty well. They extrapolate the microplastics amount from a small bit of cortical tissue, and compared it to previous results. Yeah there might not be as much in other parts of the brain, but we don’t have a reason to think it would be drastically different.

It’s up to a credit card now (9g)

Neither are really bread as they are not leavened with yeast.

Based on Wikipedia I think the unit is milligals, where a gal is 1 centimeter per second squared.

That is a bit of an odd unit where g is ~980,000 milligals.

So these changes are extremely small.

So then the total variation is all within about 0.02% of gravities normal value

Newton’s laws, including gravity and motion, can be expressed in terms of differential equations.

Differential equations pretty much requires calculus, which just hadn’t been formalized yet.

Newton’s laws also provide convincing reasons for the necessity and legitimacy of calculus, by being able to derive orbits from his simple laws.

Oh it comes with a headphone jack too. Looks pretty nice.

In America, the housing problem is significantly contributed by over-regulations. In most areas, it is only legal to build single family homes. It shouldn’t be a surprise that we can’t build enough homes for everyone with only houses.

That’s not the only issue either.

I feel it’s rude to call them freeloading, without them we wouldn’t be able to digest nearly as much food.

Why is the resolution limited at 90hz?

There should be plenty of bandwidth to run 2x2560x2560 at 90hz. That should only be ~28.3gbps, which is less than dp 1.4 max of 32.

And it’s less bandwidth than a 4k monitor at 240hz, though that requires DSC.

These people got caught because someone found their car and thus license plate.

Another had left a fingerprinted bottle that went missing when watching surveillance footage.

And then were able to confirm after finding the same outfit from the surveillance footage.

The lessons to be learned are to not use cars anywhere near the scene, leave no trace, fingerprints or digital evidence, including a phone, and make sure any recognizable clothing is well hidden, or even better thoroughly destroyed.

Oh and don’t post anything on social media.

No it doesn’t, so that’s why I didn’t speculate on the cause. But the statistics don’t lie, and you’d be a fool for assuming you’d be the exception.

As for speculation, guns are tools of escalation. Pulling a gun on robber while half asleep can turn a robbery into a homicide. Not to mention all the stories of people who shoot at intruders who turn out to be police from a no knock warrant and inevitably kill someone.

But it doesn’t matter what the cause for it really is in the end. Owning guns don’t make you safe.

Statistically if you have a gun your risk of death by homicide doubles, and suicide rate triples citation.

Guns don’t make you safe. Dogs are a are an actually effective deterrent for example citation.

The smallest 3kw motor could likely be used on ebikes. If that’s not enough just add another motor for 6kw, and that’s more than enough for an ebike.

Might be a tad low on toque though.

I think part of it is sun exposure, my eyesight is much worse than my close relatives, and I was born in Iceland which has much weaker sunlight.
