Only thing really missing is Wallet and NFC support. Other than that I think Graphene and Lineage OS cover it all
This is another reminder that the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon was recalculated by two different groups using higher precision lattice QCD techniques and wasn't found to be significantly different from the Brookhaven/Fermilab "discrepancy". More work needs to be done to check for errors in the original and newer calculations, but it seems quite likely to me that this will ultimately confirm the standard model exactly as we know it and not provide any new insight or the existence of another force particle.
My hunch is that unknown particles like dark matter rely on a relatively simple extension of the standard model (e.g. supersymmetry, axioms, etc.) and the new physics out there that combines gravity and QM is something completely different from what we are currently working on and can't be observed with current colliders or any other experiments on Earth.
So probably we will continue finding nothing interesting for quite some time until we can get a large ML model crunching every single possible model to check for fit on the data, and hopefully derive some better insight from there.
Though I'm not an expert and I'm talking out of my ass so take this all with a grain of salt.
Sam Altman: We are moving our headquarters to Japan
We have no moat and neither does OpenAI is the leaked document you're talking about
It's a pretty interesting read. Time will tell if it's right, but given the speed of advancements that can be stacked on top of each other that I'm seeing in the open source community, I think it could be right. If open source figured out scalable distributed training I think it's Joever for AI companies.
I don't know what type of chatbots these companies are using, but I've literally never had a good experience with them and it doesn't make sense considering how advanced even something like OpenOrca 13B is (GPT-3.5 level) which can run on a single graphics card in some company server room. Most of the ones I've talked to are from some random AI startup that have cookie cutter preprogrammed text responses that feel less like LLMs and more like a flow chart and a rudimentary classifier to select an appropriate response. We have LLMs that can do the more complex human tasks of figuring out problems and suggesting solutions and that can query a company database to respond correctly, but we don't use them.
Blocking out the sun with aerosols is a good idea if you know with high confidence how it will impact the climate system and environment. That's why they're trying to simulate it with the supercomputer, so they know if it fucks stuff up or not.
Cool meme but Reuters doesn't own AP and Rothschild doesn't own Reuters. It is quite ironic to be pushing against the very real problem of media disinfo/government propaganda trickled down through AP/Reuters, while at the same time spreading misinformation.
The natural next place for people to go to once they can't block ads on YouTube's website is to go to services that exploit the API to serve free content (NewPipe, Invidious, youtube-dl, etc.). If that happens at a large scale, YouTube might shut off its API just like Reddit did and we'll end up in scenario where creators are forced to move to Peertube, and, given how costly hosting is for video streaming, it could be much worse than Reddit->Lemmy+KBin or Twitter->Mastodon. Then again, YouTube has survived enshittiffication for a long time, so we'll have to wait and see.
I mean advanced AI aside, there are already browser extensions that you can pay for that have humans on the other end solving your Captcha. It's pretty much impossible to stop it imo
A long term solution would probably be a system similar to like public key/private key that is issued by a government or something to verify you're a real person that you must provide to sign up for a site. We obviously don't have the resources to do that 😐 and people are going to leak theirs starting day 1.
Honestly, disregarding the dystopian nature of it all, I think Sam Altman's worldcoin is a good idea at least for authentication because all you need to do is scan your iris to prove you are a person and you're in easily. People could steal your eyes tho 💀 so it's not foolproof. But in general biometric proof of personhood could be a way forward as well.
There are some in the research community that agree with your take: THE CURSE OF RECURSION: TRAINING ON GENERATED DATA MAKES MODELS FORGET
Basically the long and short of that paper is that LLMs are inherently biased towards likely responses. The more their training set is LLM generated, and thus contains that bias, the less the LLM will be able to produce unlikely responses, over time degrading the model quality throughout successive generations.
However, I tend to think this viewpoint is probably missing something important. Can you train a new LLM on today's internet? Probably not, at least without some heavy cleaning. Can you train a multimodal model on video, audio, the chat logs of people talking to it, and even other better LLMs? Yes, and you will get a much higher quality model and likely won't get the same model collapse implied by the paper.
This is more or less what OpenAI has done. All the conversations with 100M+ users are saved and used to further train the AI. Their latest GPT4 is also trained on video and image recognition, and they have also been exploring ways for LLMs to train new ones, especially to aid in alignment of these models.
Another recent example is Orca, a fine tune of the open source llama model, which is trained by GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 as teachers, and retains ~90% of GPT-3.5's performance though it uses a factor of 10 less parameters.

"I use Signal to hide my data from the US government and big tech"
"Wait, you seriously still use Reddit? Everyone switched to the Fediverse!"
"Wow, can't believe you use Apple! Android is so much better."
No one who isn't terminally online understands what these statements mean. If you want people to use something else, don't make it about privacy and choose something with fancy buttons and cool features that looks close enough to what they have. They do not care about privacy and are literally of the mindset "if I have nothing to hide I have nothing to fear". They sleep well at night.
