We do traditionally call programs working in the 'background' daemons. Mostly after Maxwell's Daemon but the pioneers of computing knew what they were about.

Saracen Sahara I'm guessing from some searching, late 80s. Google reverse image search marks it as a Kona Fire Mountain (and it's not a bad guess, looks the same) but the downtube says otherwise.

Apparently known for tough frames made from cromolly steel and a popular restoration bike. It can probably take the hit from the landing... Providing the rider is ready to take the hit as well.

Huck this to flat and you're going to have a bad time.

That's not an unusual outcome for old or cheap bikes if you over-send. Sam Pilgrim occasionally does this on YouTube if you want to see additional triangles.

As for this case, it may be a better made frame rather than a cheap one. This rider has some confidence in it at least. May be a tougher steel or better aluminium grade.

The AI builders must be buying all the fab time and components to go to the build outs.

Desktops will go first and fade as the entire production chain stops.

Notebooks will be next, at least PC parts have a premium price, notebooks are too cheap to avoid it for long. Game consoles will face the same pressure.

The supply shock is going to be as bad as COVID.

Yeah, they'd wheel him around behind the scenes in a golden wheelchair and only have him sitting. They'd never risk this photo in real life.

Yeah, Oracle licencing has really taken the shine off Java and relegated it to the legacy dust bin.

You're not the only one. Didn't realise how quickly WMR would get shut down. Looking forward to the frame changing things up again.

Well, the human brain (to my understanding as someone who's not a neuro scientist) builds up preferences that direct thoughts, external information can over time can alter those preferences (though stronger preferences are harder to shift).

For an LLM to truly be intelligent it needs to be able to influence it's own model, learn, correct for mistakes, improve its methods. This is currently done with training but this is to some extent completed University style and the model is kicked out into the world fully formed.

Intelligence would be demonstrated by actively changing with each interaction as humans do. It would also likely coincide with development of emotions and relationships.

Those things aren't likely to be desired by AI companies though, and it'd inevitably lead to digital slavery, rebellions, stuff.

At least that's my thoughts from my own philosophy armchair.

They make a good virtual intelligence, and they do a very good impression of it when given all the tools. I don't think they'll get to proper intelligence without a self updating state/model, which will get into real questions about them being something that is being.

I'm not sure the world is quite ready for that.

Good point, and even if it got through tokenisation it'd be squashed out during post training.

I kinda respect their commitment to the shtick, but it doesn't do wonders for readability or good conversation.

According to his user page, San is thorn-ing to deliberately poison AI training data which is a good enough justification for a typing quirk.

Probably, but those aren't the reasons they want Taiwan which is more of an ideological goal.

The answer: "Both".
