Whoa, you mean it can *decrease* at some point?

I, too pirate my music, films and software for AI training and no other reason at all.

C'est vrai.
Technically it sounds like "pussy, I farted," if we're being precise.

Then I assume there are a few back and forth rounds with the editor? What / At what level do they comment on? Or do they take it as is?

100% d'accord. Mentalist a existé en même temps que House, Sherlock et Lie to Me. Un peu comme Elementary, il est tombé au mauvais moment au milieu de séries avec des "génies" objectivement mieux écrits, ou en tout cas dont le 'génie' ne tenait pas (que) en des ex-machina faciles.

Saw the image and question, before noticing the poster's account, and I was gonna comment "looks like Loish"

Same, and also to suggest that it be done by walking backwards.

3) longer-word examples I could imagine were emphasized roughly the same as when not yelling.

Mostly context-dependent? 1) In your example I could imagine the accent on AAA if I'm surprised and it starts as a scream & ends as a warning 2) Trying to imagine other situations i only saw myself yelling one-syllable word sentences...

Ghostbusters 2. I was ~4 and begged my parents to let me see it with them. It TERRIFIED me, I think we had to leave the theater.

Clos-exosporium sounds like an exciting sci-fi concept.

That is weirdly good. And yeah the consequences are creepy.
It's funny (as in 'terrifying') how the speed at which these things improve keeps surprising me, even though recent years should have taught me to revise my expectations of pace.
'SciFi in Our Time' I guess.

I'm afraid that won't happen without the kind of societal consequences cataclysmic enough to bring *all* of humanity to grab the pitchforks and kindle the torches, first. Not looking forward to that step.
Plus I kinda like Quillbot.

Actually I'm guessing it's only a matter of "what new task will we _first_ ask a NN to perform, instead of a human?". I'm in a field of research where people are more than happy to throw LLMs at anything that moves, so I wouldn't even be surprised if that hadn't happened already.

Why would it? What's the underlying question or assumption?
The ChatGPTs 20 years from now may solve our Future Problems™, including brand new ones, without the need for another "standard" program to have been written by a human. Or do you expect that it cannot be the case?

I'd love to see a "physicists react" to reading that question.

Coming back to the question: depends on what we call intelligence :) for the human-favorite kind, it sure feels like neuron networks is the way to go.
comment in response to
post
Can we even acknowledge an "other" intelligence, one that would differ significantly from our own evolution pathway in what it can do, how it works, what it was selected for?
comment in response to
post
You mean, something else than neuron networks? Feels a bit like a chicken-and-egg problem. The most robust definition I've seen of intelligence (IMO) is "feels and behaves like a human," and that's ultimately what we aim for when we develop AI or when we evaluate animal intelligence.

Also, are we even sure that gangsters believe in an afterlife? Sounds like excessive generalization to me.

I mean, what are the odds of detecting a human organ in the vastness of space, let alone when it's hidden from us by another celestial body? There could be millions of frozen, free-floating hearts being totally eclipsed *right now* and we wouldn't have any clue.

Wait, so it *can* search the internet? (Assuming it won't hallucinate its weather forecast)

She stopped in 2020 but there's a lot of content there already.

Staying in French:
- Le Photographe (real report on an afghan war, with photos from the authors) from Guibert, Lefèvre, Lemercier
- the whole series of Tu Mourras Moins Bête (comedy science popularization) from Marion Montaigne
Also, Mc Cloud's Understanding Comics.

Les Ignorants by Etienne Davodeau (Initiates in English i think)

"Remonter" is also what we use to express upriver travel, so 'against the flow' as opposed to in a fixed direction.
See def. 4.b here: www.cnrtl.fr/etymologie/r...
Apparently used by La Fontaine, literally about Time (!)

100% agree with the part about lyrics (mostly) sounding better when you don't understand what they really mean. I'm still able to tune out the meaning of English songs, & enjoy them, even when I understand every word.
Can't tune out for French :/ so most songs sound ridiculous in my own language.

À chaque fois que Valls revient je crois que c'est une vanne du Gorafi.
Vraie question : c'est quoi son attrait (pour un 1er ministre qui peut se permettre d'ignorer les traitrises et hypocrisies passées) ? C'est un gros bosseur ? Il gère bien ses équipes ? On peut compter sur lui dans la pression ?

I agree with the overall use of sarcastic phrases, but I'm not sure about this interpretation of "lui en vouloir". I'm no linguist but I read this as "to want [it/some of it] for/upon them". In that sense, 'en' stands in place of e.g. harm. It's less blaming than an expression of being mad at them.
