An AI with this “universal morals” could mean an authoritarian regime which kills all dissidents, and strict eugenics. Kill off anyone with a genetic disease. Death sentence for shoplifting. Stop all work on art or games or entertainment. This isn’t really a universal moral.

I gave their example “correct” prompt (“Flat, circular, non-itchy, non-painful red rash with a ring, diffuse throughout trunk. Follows week of chills and intense night sweats, plus fatigue and general malaise”) to both ChatGPT and Gemini. And both said Lyme disease as their #1 diagnosis. So maybe it is okay to diagnose yourself with LLMs, just do it correctly!

Interesting puzzle. 32385 is 255 pick 2. My guess would be, to hopefully make interpretation easier, they always had the larger number on one side. So (1,2) but not (2,1). And also 0 wasn’t included. So perhaps their generation loop looks like [[(i,j) for j (i-1 -> 1) for i (256 -> 1)]

We wouldn’t have a long back and forth to establish a common language, we would likely send something like https://cosmicos.github.io.

“CosmicOS is a way to create messages suitable for communication across large gulfs of time and space. It is inspired by Hans Freudenthal's language, Lincos, and Carl Sagan's book, Contact. CosmicOS, at its core, is a programming language, capable of expressing simulations. Simulations are a way to talk, by anology, about the real thing they model.

CosmicOS is structured to communicate the usual math and logic basics, then use that to show how to run programs, then send interesting programs that demonstrate behaviors and interactions, and start communicating ideas through ”theater” and simulations. This is inspired by Freudenthal's idea of staging conversations between his imaginary characters Ha and Hb.”

I propose we add add/subtract a second from every other minute over a 5 day smear.

The trademark was only for “Meta” in this stylized font: https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=86907005&caseType=SERIAL_...

Meta owned meta.com, the m+infinity logo trademark (https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=5548122&caseSearchType=US...), the Meta trademark (https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=86852664&caseSearchType=U...).

These trademarks covered: “promoting the goods and services of others via computer and communication networks using targeted and non-targeted methods; operating on-line marketplaces for sellers of goods and/or services … providing advertising space via the global computer network … creating on-line virtual communities … hosting electronic facilities for others for organizing and conducting meetings, events and interactive discussions via communication networks”

So pretty likely to conflict with Facebook.

However, they transferred all of these to the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative in May: https://assignments.uspto.gov/assignments/assignment-tm-7299..., and as you mentioned, are now shutting down. It’s not a great look. I would feel pretty bad if I had devoted years of my life to building meta.org to now see how it was used

Yes, but you could also host a normal Postgres db easily enough

growth rate. low customer acquisition cost. the expenses weren't from marketing, which is good.

My biggest concern would be how much of the growth was from people having free time at home due to covid. And if deep learning will make language learning less relevant in the future. You may be less likely to learn a new language if audio can be translated in real time almost perfectly

I do something similarish - if a book comes to mind, find it on “the internet” right away. Buy the physical book if I like the first chapter or two.

They can likely consider only 1 device per IP address. Unless the region is blanketed in strong public WiFi
