Took awhile to read. My general takeaway is it's so amazing our drive to make things more efficient. We never slow down do we. Kinda hoping we hit a hard boundary of physics to be honest.

I didn't dive into the reference on why the guy thought our slow data processing is an advantage, but it does seem well tuned that we don't think like these models.

We would go mad and nothing would make sense.

Reminds me of the fun fact about the distance of the sun to the earth. Oddly tuned for our existence. Or when the anesthesiologists knocks out gamma waves and we skip through time in an instant. Why do the gamma waves operate like our lightswitch?

Anyways, since the start of the paper was sure I might use AI to summarize, here is AI's summary response using the personality of fry from futurerama.

I too enjoy this topic. Go down this rabbit hole far enough and you realize there is a chance dev/urandom is completely predictable don't ask me how I know this.

I have a hunch that amazon links do track somehow based on timing. Does anybody do that?

There are so many products on amazon sharing a link to one specific product and having someone else open it shortly after sounds like a high enough confidence.

Again just a hunch.

So true. I too dual as an automatic link cleaner.

When I receive a link with a 100 character hash attached I gasp and yell at the person who sent me it (my wife normally)

They put so much stuff into the URL, usually my user ID, my phone, browser info etc…

I don’t necessarily want the people I share the link with to know my potentially pseudonymous user.

Time to build your own platforms I guess.

You mean countries?

World?

Planet?

Elon, is that you?

Im curious, where did you get all the training data? Actual blueprints? Or it the training data pictures of homes? Or a mix?

They are actual blueprints!

Looks really cool, as both a software developer and a custom home builder I think this is great.

I noticed it can only draw hip roofs.

You need more alot more training data of good looking houses. I'm sure it's taken a lot of effort to get these things working, but these houses are lacking some character to me.

I think this is a great idea. Have you thought about trying to hire architects or builders?

It was trained from experts telling older models what to do. They had agreements with these people who already did this stuff all day.

The benefit with the models is that you can get rid of alot of the grunt work and just try a massive amount of things that might work all at once in a short amount of time in a automated fashion.

I get the logical deduction that takes place for not being able to truly know if others are conscious but you have to put your self in a spacey place to really not be confident others might not be conscious.

It's not a difficult leap to assume a twin brother is conscious. If you think it is, why do you think this?

Healthy people are wired to respect each other. No, I don't really believe it, I'm not a solipsist. But I do not think it has been logically disproven.

Was that guy a billionaire? Sounds like a billionaire comment.

That's the completely opposite of what people should do. The laborious task of programing logical work flows is the only reason AI is useful for me.

When I hear about engineers who are bored with coding, I have to imagine it's because the task of "programming logical work flows" has become rote to them.

Instead of refining their approach, or challenging their current knowledge base for discovery of inefficiencies or baseless assumptions, they'd rather hit an "easy" button.

I understand the desire to NOT do work. I understand the desire to spend quality time and free time with family. And I understand the idea that familiarity breeds contempt.

What I don't understand is the willingness to replace a deterministic language/framework/approach with a probabilistic slop machine.
