This reads more like geohot finally hit the point where he can't stand comments more so than it has to do with what is in the text. Idiots and trolls in the audience put real mental toll on streamers - facing and tackling mean comments straight on don't make them mental Hulks. If anything that wears them down and mentally weaken them.

But: what exactly is the problem if AI was going to exceed us humans in intelligence? We keep pets around and enjoy watching them move about, despite them being clearly less intelligent than ourselves. We enjoy arts, sometimes conceived by literally clinically low-IQ or insane people. Proof of above-average exceptional intelligence != source of dignity nor justification for your existence as an sentient being.

I guess the idea that AI going past meat human is scary, because there is an implication that it could lead to general deprecation and deliberate extinction of meat humans with no concrete proof of their own continuities or the guaranteed ultimate free choice as the carrier of the human civilization for us to make. But IMO, that kind of an moment-of-truth situation is not guaranteed, and there are plenty chances that it leads to situations similar to Data from Star Trek, or Doraemon by Fujiko Fujio, or Yukikaze by Chohei Kambayashi, or Rocky from Hail Mary for that matter - bunch of friendly next-door 400-IQ sentient autonomous superhuman aliens that just happen to be non-traditionally-biological.

So why be depressed?

If you can't make yourself sound adequately smart, it could lead to people ignoring you, and/or acting in spite of your opinions/logic, and/or spending extra effort trying to decipher you. That is not an optimal situation, especially in cases where you would be right[1].

1: I don't think you're right in this instance, but that's beside the point.

let me just say, you're not going to sound smart saying that

Wait, this is with a digital twin only? Not fMRI or webcam based?

Was that actually benchmarked and compared, or was that some British activist group insisting? I thought it was just the latter.

There is/was the official bot on Twitter that you can tag with a prompt, like "@grok put this spacesuit on a horse on a moon", that's not equal to being uncensored.

And Toyota Venza which sound like "toilet seat" in... Japanese, of all languages...

I don't remember online discourses on filter avoidance for Grok to be any different from typical ones, except that it allegedly have tendency to take porn-biased interpretations of prompts, I think the "uncensored" pitch they had for a while was pure marketing in the end.

How does it compare to Chinese APIs? It doesn't seem like xAI is meaningfully more competent or any single bit more honest than Chinese labs anyway, so you might as well send tasks straight to China unless theirs is substantially cheaper.

Both Hayabusa 1 and 2 did sample returns, this flyby is an afterlife extra.

Presumably you can do a snare drum shape with antennas arranged like tension rods, for whatever reason they do articulating antennas.

As for why it needs multiple antennas, it's for MIMO and beam forming.

Frankly, I think it is about time Latin languages should get predictive typing assist on desktop. It's probably within possibility for Mythos/Fable class LLMs to one-shot it out of a tweet-length description and full code access for existing IMEs like Mozc.

I think this is about semiconductor design and/or die packaging related difficulties/costs. idk exactly why, but "pin count" in this exact expression is not rare at all on chip marketing materials.

well, that's actually how East Asian input usually work, so...

They use special "upper" and "lower" layer keys to switch between mappings. There's a whole open source ecosystem around a project called QMK firmware, and convergent common keymaps for keyboards that use it.

The classic full US keyboard with numpad nominally has 101 keys, HHKB style compact boards usually 60 or so. The bare minimum with all numbers and Fn keys may have as little as 40 keys. Hence:

  100%: full w/keypad,  
   80%: the main part plus cursors,  
   60%: just the main part, with 0-9,  
   40%: just QWERTY, no numbers at all.

The actual numbers of keys slightly differ from percentage figures(PC full keyboards had expanded beyond 101 keys as well), but this is how mechanical keyboard percentage notation is often used.

big companies seek control, not money, because money alone is a weak shield against disruptions

I had thought about a post-apocalyptic prepper printer once, my conclusion was that you can just have a fax machine and a laptop. They're considered thoroughly obsolete, and almost free to take in used markets as well.
