This is exactly the kind of article that ai will not appreciate when it can read and comprehend the hype! Just kidding, but it is interesting that many people already consider this a form of sentience when it is simply matrices of info. How many matrices of info do we need before sentience can pop in via consciousness and hang out with us, here and now?
> Our opinion is that war to the death should be instantly proclaimed
against them. Every machine of every sort should be destroyed by the
well-wisher of his species. Let there be no exceptions made, no quarter
shown; let us at once go back to the primeval condition of the race. If
it be urged that this is impossible under the present condition of human
affairs, this at once proves that the mischief is already done, that our
servitude has commenced in good earnest, that we have raised a race of
beings whom it is beyond our power to destroy, and that we are not only
enslaved but are absolutely acquiescent in our bondage.
Lately I have a theory about perfect pitch training as an 18+ year old human, I think we will achieve it (my friend and I) via the following: Using Tuesdays to practice E chord songs, using Thursdays to practice C# minor chord songs. One day play only E songs, one day play only C#m songs, do this several weeks, pick 2 new chords for 2 fresh days, repeat.
Germane: there can be no green new deal without a robust manufacturing sector in America. Some sort of higher-tech revolution could be possible, though.
Very interesting take. In order to keep a democracy functioning properly, education is required. The lines between education and propagandalf wizardry become blurry when economic incentives and dearths of ethics enter the field.
My layperson understanding is that this is a Bad Thing, but not the surprising outcome SVB was. The market, other banks, consumers, etc had a long window to digest this, so it won’t cause new panic the same way.
Considering all of the stops the fed pulled out to prevent future bank liquidity failures, this probably means some gross negligence was revealed by the market state that goes well beyond even blatant risk mismanagement.
Businesses go under sometimes, that's the free market. Banks are a weird type of business which is why the FDIC exists, but this isn't a broken market, it's the market working.
How? Using what laws? If there are no clearly relevant laws, perhaps you expect congress to pass one expediently?
Let's suppose there is no law on the books that explicitly fleshes out liability if you train a model and it does not do as you expect, we'll need to figure out some nearest neighbor matching.
So you will have to shoehorn this novel issue into some preexisting framework of precedent. Maybe something about negligence liability and a common public use item, like a bridge or something. But a bridge isn't as complicated as an ML model and a bridge failure is way more auditable. Bridges don't hallucinate. Also there are unintended consequences to doing this sort of legal massaging, before you know it, campaign finance = speech.
"Hold them accountable" is so broad that verges on meaninglessness. Part of the whole living in a rapidly evolving tech landscape is living with laws that are always a few steps behind the times. Which bleeping sucks, but until we press for a better large scale solution, it is going to keep sucking.
No. But even if that was the case, why punish anyone who upvoted it by restricting their account?
From the page and other articles, the review details the malware installed as part of the drm/anti-cheat system, and how it is not removed. There's an update now in which Valve falsely claims that the review information was wrong (which as far as I can tell it isn't) and deleted it presumably because they don't want people to not buy games just because they install malware. They're offloading that on to some "moderator" rather than themselves which I assume means either moderators are unpaid, or they have a contracting layer that allows them to claim a different entity it (even if it was according to rules Valve sets as a contractor relationship would imply).
But the important message being sent here is very clear: if you upvote a review detailing malware installed by a game your account can be restricted, so don't ever do that. You can only upvote positive reviews.
