Even this comment is filled with hatred. Why are you so angry?

YanDev is a literal pedophile. It’s honestly mind boggling people care more about a guy who won’t sign a petition on preserving video games than pedophiles and bigots. I don’t get the hate.

OwO what’s this? *notices your copy of Mein Kampf*

This gives me AI vibes.

eh

My understanding of quantum computers is that they’re great a brute forcing stuff, but machine learning is just a lot of calculations, not brute forcing.

If you want to know the square root of 25, you don’t need to brute force it. There’s a direct way to calculate the answer and traditional computers can do it just fine. It’s still going to take a long time if you need to calculate the square root of a billion numbers.

That’s basically machine learning. The individual calculations aren’t difficult, there’s just a lot to calculate. However, if you have 2 computers doing the calculations, it’ll take half the time. It’ll take even less time if you fill a data center with a cluster of 100,000 GPUs.

Reminds me of Frank Sinatra’s burger recipe.

Canada: from the St. Lawrence Iroquoian word kanata, meaning “village”. The word was told to French explorer Jacques Cartier, who believed it referred to a much larger area than it actually did.

It’s mostly the training/machine learning that is power hungry.

AI is essentially a giant equation that is generated via machine learning. You give it a prompt with an expected answer, it gets run through the equation, and you get an output. That output gets an error score based on how far it is from the expected answer. The variables of the equation are then modified so that the prompt will lead to a better output (one with a lower error).

The issue is that current AI models have billions of variables and will be trained on billions of prompts. Each variable will be tuned based on each prompt. That’s billions to the power of billions of calculations. It takes a while. AI researchers are of course looking for ways to speed up this process, but so far it’s mostly come down to dividing up these billions of calculations over millions of computers. Powering millions of computers is where the energy costs come from.

Unless AI models can be trained in a way that doesn’t require running a billion squared calculations, they’re only going to get more power hungry.

Weird. That works all the time on Pawn Stars

Pinecone? I don’t get it…

I know for sure Korean does this, though technically their writing system is a syllabary. Symbols representing vowel and consonants are arranged into blocks that represent a syllable.

For example ㅈㅅ is short for 죄송합니다 meaning “I’m sorry”. Talk about efficient shorthand! The first consonants of each syllable block are used to makeup the shorthand, the ending 합니다 is a polite conjugation which is ignored in shorthand. You can look up “korean texting slang” for more. It’s apparently used a lot. The shorthand some might already be familiar with is ㅋㅋ which is “lol”.

How’d you get it to do this?

I just wanted to see if you’d actually go out of your way to fake a gimp screenshot. The guy has 17 fingers and 3 arms and the baby has 14 toes and one hand is meshing into the arm of the man. It’s AI. The screenshot also doesn’t have a layer for most things that would have layers like the text that says “Yoink” and for some reason the baby is half in one layer and half another. The checkered pattern in the layer view is messed up. Why would you go to such lengths to lie? Just say it’s AI. It’s obvious.

Post your gimp screenshot

Me, every time I try searching a Rust question.

That’s easy. Just do:

fn is_second_num_positive() -> bool {
    let input = "123,-45";
    let is_positive =
        input.split(',')
        .collect::<Vec<&str>>()
        .last()
        .unwrap()
        .parse::<i32>()
        .unwrap()
        .is_positive();
    is_positive
}
