I don't think it's ever been explicitly stated, but I always pictured them as college roommates, but maybe having them be stepbrothers works better.
The idea was always to have two conflicting personalities forced together to become friends, any relationship details were secondary.
Okular is the KDE one. It's common in a lot of Linux distros, and open source so you can be fairly sure it's not phoning home.
I don't know if I'd call it the best. But it's an option.
If that's not to your taste, check pdfreaders.org for a big list of them.
I'm sure Modi definitely wants to suggest that's what would happen, because such a situation would be good for India, and his political position.
But remember, Politicians lie, they spin things to make themselves look good, their words are meaningless. Watch what they do.
This is just a projection of what Modi would like to happen.
"Economic Cooperation" is Politician for "we have no reason to fuck each other over at the moment, let's keep it that way"
Wait for policy. You could very well be right, but at the moment you're tilting at windmills.
I won't fault you for for feeling concerned, but don't you think it's a little unrealistic to expect world leaders to start unilaterally declaring other countries unnecessary shitholes like you seem to be implying she should have in this situations. Much less an Asian one.
This is just politicians doing boring politician shit. She's Japanese, of course she's going to politely nod along with whatever he says during the conversation, even more so than a Western politician. Doesn't mean a thing about what she'll do the second she hangs up the phone.
Mostly the one used to encode them in the first place.
Regardless of how you feel about Israel, they are moving from an open source piece of software to a closed source one, which is rarely a good choice.
Suddenly the owners of that software have a significant lever to exert influence, and it is largely through this sort of power that Microsoft became what it is today.
Of course, this is much smaller scale, and only on one Anime platform already notorious for being more annoying to use than just learning how to pirate, but it is definitely not a positive development.
Exactly. Enthusiastic, but in need of constant direction and guidance.
A big advantage over actual teenagers is they won't get pissy if you tell them to start over and do it all from the top. Which is an important thing to do. Trying again fresh, or pitching the question at a different LLM is a good sanity check when you can't personally verify something that sounds plausible. If it's a hallucination, it will be different each time.
Depends what the Japanese Branch does, but it doesn't look good for them either. The great Talents of Iwata's and Miyamoto's generation are now in their late 60s to 70s and looking at retirement, and the next generation have mostly gone off to do their own thing like Sakurai. The result is that leadership is likely to consist of dudes who made it their life goal to climb to the top of a big company, rather than anyone who has any special connection with video games.
I predict a much slower fall where Nintendo starts using its vast war chest to purchase second party developers in an attempt to inject new creativity, before consuming them in the vein of our least favorite American video game companies.
My gut says they stick around in their current form until at least 2035, when they might restructure if the Switch 3 goes poorly. And even then I expect them to pull a Sega and use their vast IP library to make money by sticking Mario or Pikachu's face on every product with a flat surface to draw it on.
I find that the best way to use AI is to treat it like a very enthusiastic teenage subordinate. Delegate things to it, but assume it will make mistakes, or take shortcuts to preserve its own ego. Give detailed, precise instructions, and be prepared for it to make incorrect assumptions.Verify everything it does, and know that you need to have final say and culpability in everything it does.
It's fast and very useful, but you need some skill at wrangling it.
And, like you said, it's far more powerful as a partner to bounce ideas back and forth with while you do the actual work, than it is when you just tell it to do something.
And yes, AI being implemented into workflows is basically inevitable. Doing it correctly will be the trick.
It biases the algorithm against assuming you are asking a good faith question that it can find the answer to with a simple Google search. After it decides not to make an API call it reverts to its training data, which ends in January 2025, and thus has no information on the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
See, this time the model made an API call, because it saw that you were asking a polite question about the current status of something. (So something it doesn't expect to find in its corpus.) It was able to search for the information and respond appropriately.
A quick google search could have told you this particular model was released in June, and the actual data from the model shows that it's training data ends in January.
These things aren't magic.
Stop badgering the AI. It doesn't prove anything, and makes you look like an immature child. The AI only has access to data within its training set. Obviously this set ends well before Charlie Kirk's assassination. It's also designed to mimic tone. If you come at it with a combative statement, it will push back.
This is proves nothing, it's just a tool behaving like anyone who understands how it works would expect.
Anyone who predicts that Biden would have done anything other than that angry/confused stare he does, followed by a vague, noncommittal, and slightly angry call to action devoid of anything actionable, wasn't paying attention to how limited Biden's political repertoire actually was.
Depends on how tolerant of half assing things you are. I grabbed a P40 which is enough for a hobbyist for 300$. It does a passible job if slightly slow. But it's plenty capable for a single user. Of course if you want to do anything cutting edge, you'll be spending tens of thousands. However a significant part of that is Nvidia being stingy with VRAM. It wouldn't be particularly difficult to make high VRAM cards that would be far more cost effective for AI, but it's more profitable for Nvidia to do it this way.
OCR is a very simple use of a more primitive version of the same technology. You create a training set, a set of expected results, then use a training algorithm on the layers of linear algebra and matrixes to adjust them until you have a program that can accurately classify input data and produce the expected output, even with examples it has never seen before, generalizing it's functionality beyond just it's training set.
Of course it's a hell of a lot easier to match small greyscale images to a set of less than 200 glyphs than it is to match it to as vague a concept as coherent English text, and of course there are a lot of tasks with intermediary complexity like subject identification and catching and classifying defects in parts without exact measurements.
The big thing that kicked off this latest boom was production of general outputs.
Now we're able to go from general to general (a description of a picture to a picture that fits the description) instead of general to specific (picture of animal to Is Cat?Y/N with confidence interval X.)
Possibly he most evil politician in Canada. Trudeau and Carney are eager and willing puppets, but she would be bad to the bone even if she were left to her own devices.
