I’m all for figuring out the balance between creator compensation and AI training.

But this ain’t it.

This is an attempt to own the internet and should be treated as such. You think Cloudflare is doing this without taking a cut? They want in on the game, not change it.

If this succeeds we’ve opened up to non-neutral pipes. This is the end game of what non-neutral carrier ecosystem looks like.



Mark Zuckerberg Already Knows Your Life. Now He Wants His AI to Run It


Forget chatbots. Zuckerberg’s vision is much grander. He is betting that within a few years, AI will not just be answering your questions or writing your emails. It will be managing your schedule, anticipating your needs, running your home, helping you make decisions, and maybe even guiding your career. Call it Life-as-a-Service, powered by Meta.

The move is seen as a direct challenge to competitors. “The launch of Meta Superintelligence labs isn’t just an announcement; it’s a statement: Meta won’t settle for second place in AI,” commented Alon Yamin, cofounder and CEO of the AI detection platform Copyleaks. He added, “Meta and Mark clearly see this as a make or break moment for AI leadership.”

Ron DeSantis plans to 'deputize' Floridians as 'judges' of immigrant detainees


"One of the things I think that is exciting about this is, we're offering up our National Guard and other folks in Florida to be deputized to be immigration judges. We're working with the Department of Justice for the approvals. I'm sure Pam [Bondi] will approve," DeSantis said as Trump nodded his head and said, "Yep."

DeSantis didn't elaborate on who the other "folks" would be.

DeSantis continued, "But then...I'll have a National Guard judge advocate here. Someone has a notice to appear, Biden would tell them to come back in three years and appear. Now, you'll be able to appear in like a day or two. So, they're not going to be detained, hopefully, for all that long."

I’m not sure that works, because AFAIK there currently are no such regulations, and this bill was preemptive of any future ones. In any case, what got blocked in the Senate was a ban of any future such regulations.

US Senate strikes AI provision from GOP bill after uproar from the states


WASHINGTON (AP) — A proposal to deter states from regulating artificial intelligence for a decade was soundly defeated in the U.S. Senate on Tuesday, thwarting attempts to insert the measure into President Donald Trump’s big bill of tax breaks and spending cuts.

The Senate voted 99-1 to strike the AI provision from the legislation after weeks of criticism from both Republican and Democratic governors and state officials.

No, in Spagna non ci sono 54 gradi… almeno non nell’aria!


In questi giorni molti media parlano di 54 °C a Siviglia, ma attenzione: si tratta della temperatura della superficie terrestre, rilevata dal satellite Sentinel-3 dell’ESA, non della temperatura dell’aria che sentiamo o leggiamo nei bollettini meteo.

Questi dati si ottengono misurando il calore emesso dal suolo, che può essere ben più elevato rispetto all’aria, specie su asfalto o terreno secco esposto al sole.

Le temperature dell’aria in Spagna, seppur molto alte, non hanno superato i 45 °C.

Un dato importante da comprendere per evitare confusione e allarmismi.

LLMs have their flaws, but to claim they are wrong 70% of the time is just hate train bullshit.

Sounds like you base this info on models like GPT3. Have you tried any newer model?

As it happens, "Ptolemaois" is how the name is written in at least German, Swedish and Finnish, so speakers of those languages (Swedish and Finnish myself) likely pronounce it most correctly?

Never really understood why English insists of weirdly dropping the final bits of Greek and Latin names ("Plutarch" vs "Plutarkhos", "Justinian" vs "Justinianus" etc)

If by "most correctly", you mean "the closest to what Koine Greek would do", then yes. Note however that each language will impose restrictions on the allowed sounds and sequences of; for example Finnish won't use [ä] like Ancient Greek would, simply because the sound isn't there in Finnish (it adapts it to an [ɑ]).

Also note the word itself can be pronounced multiple ways even in Koine Greek. For example the ⟨αῖ⟩ diphthong can be read as either [äɪ̯] (as in English "by") or as [ɛ:] (as in English air); as far as I'm aware this sound change happened in early Koine Greek times.

Never really understood why English insists of weirdly dropping the final bits of Greek and Latin names (“Plutarch” vs “Plutarkhos”, “Justinian” vs “Justinianus” etc)


Short explanation: English does it because it's what French does. And French does it because of its history as a Latin descendant.

Long explanation:

Since French is a Romance language, it's the result of a Latin dialect undergoing a bunch of sound changes. Those sound changes affected all words inherited from Latin. For example capus/capum¹ → chef, bonus/bonum → bon, Romanus/Romanum → Romain (yup, it applies to personal names!) ille → le, so goes on.

However, Latin is a prestige language in Europe. So even if French is a Latin descendant, it kept reborrowing words from Latin. And because of the above, French started changing those loanwords in a specific way, that kind of mimics part of its own evolution.

In other words: French developed a convention on how to handle Latin borrowings². And part of that convention is to sub/remove the endings. Other Romance languages do something similar³.

What I said applies to the Latin names. Now, the Greek names go one step deeper: Latin itself borrowed Greek words left and right, adapting them into Latin. Some would be eventually inherited by French. So the convention on how to handle Latin names in French also handles Greek names: "Latinise them first, then pretend they're Latin words."

Then you get English. Most of that Classical knowledge entered English through French, so English borrowed that convention of adapting Latin words too. Eventually developing its own convention on how to do it, that looks kind of similar to the one French used back then. And some names were subjected to local sound changes, and just like the Romance languages English messes a fair bit with word endings. And the vowels, too (Great Vowel Shift).

In contrast, German also treats Latin as a prestige language. But since it's neither a Romance language nor borrowing the convention from one, it's getting the names straight from Latin, and modifying them a bit less⁴. That includes keeping the nominative endings of the words.

NOTES:

  1. I'm listing words by their Latin nominative and accusative. The nominative is the form likely to be borrowed; however, French and the other Romance languages inherited the accusative.
  2. This can be seen by the Modern French renditions of those names: Ptolémée, Justinien, Plutarque.
  3. For reference, look at the Italian versions of those names: Tolomeo, Giustiniano, Plutarco. Parts of the ending are still there, unlike in French, but the ending -s/-m is gone.
  4. It still does change them, mind you. After a word is borrowed into a language, it's subjected to the sound changes of that language; plus spelling plays a huge role, and even in non-Romance languages there are minor conventions on how you're "supposed" to handle Latin names. Cue to German spelling "Justinianus" instead of "IVSTINIANVS" or "Iustinianus".

Sorry for the wall of text.

I think the 17 year old sees them because they've got their age range at like 18-20, loads of underage people make Tinder accounts and put their real age in the bio. And the 29 year old would then see a lot fewer men. That's what I'm guessing the comment you replied to was about.

I don't understand those kind of scenarios. Isn't it trivial for anyone involved to just anonimously smuggle the code out?

Are those data handled like in a Mission: Impossible offline casino?

but that would be a crime! instead, we'll just ask the companies to do the right thing, surely the only reason they're not already doing that is because they're unaware
in reply to dwindling7373

I assume game studios are currently extremely well secured on par with film production considering how much money goes into it. Back in the day, maybe not so much. But then you might also be limited by the capabilities of portable data storage. Kind of harder to smuggle out a dozen floppy disks than one thumb drive. Plus, they literally get the FBI to investigate if they notice something gets stolen, so it's really not a simple thing to just walk out of work one day with the source code of the game you've been working on for years.
in reply to graymess [he/him]

For current production, obviously, but those titles are quite literally close to abandonware range.

But I guess once they have the systems in place they use it for everything...
