That park is lovely. What an absolute waste of time. A few angry people get this on the ballot, and it keeps getting defeated.

If there’s a sign, it likely happened more than once.

On laptop, go until browser crashes in a loop.

One time, had to reboot three times so I could close some of the windows before they locked up.

This isn’t literally about Manga.

France has a long history with Bande dessinée, aka graphic novels. Like Asterix, TinTin, Gaston, Lucky Luke, etc. Their version of Comicon is a massive annual conference in Angoulême: https://angouleme.org/en/comics-festival/.

There’s already a whole ecosystem around Asterix: movies, theme parks, conventions, etc. Not as much around the other characters. What Macron is likely talking about is taking outside investment to jumpstart other ecosystems, including popular Japanese manga series. This is all about increasing foreign tourism.

Humans encounter a wide range of tasks as they grow up from infant to toddler and beyond. We don’t have separate ‘training’ vs. ‘inference’ stages (or at least, it’s a very short window). We also generalize from tasks (as the glass jar demo shows). We also appear to have different types of storage for short vs medium vs long-range memory.

We can combine a bunch of individual tasks into complex, coordinated, goal-seeking tasks and keep them around for later use. Like riding a bike, or learning how to drive, or juggle. We can recall those years later, even if we haven’t done them for a long time.

Plus, we somehow have a meta-layer of ‘common-sense’ or ‘ethics’ that tells us when NOT to do something, or when we SHOULDN’T. Like ride a bike onto pedestrians, or juggle kitchen knives. Hopefully, the research will go into those areas as well.

In CalRX trial for GLP-1 meds.

The next morning, they found out they didn’t agree on their selection of residential building materials.

That’s when the trouble started.

• 1️⃣ Start screen recording yourself 🎦
• 🦟 Fix the bug and write up the PR, except…
• Throw in a lot of gratuitous emojis 🎉🏆🤝 – em-dashes – and “On the other hands”
• 📤 Submit it
• When they come 😡 screaming at you about no-AI, just show them the video 😎
• All their outrage will be spent on accusing you of using 🤖AI.
• Where it all started will be forgotten 🥳
• Profit 🏆

The WebAudio test is not the only measurement in these scripts. Inspection of the bundles found code that queries or measures:

• canvas rendering and toDataURL()
• WebGL renderer information, extensions, and shader precision
• audio oscillator and analyser output
• screen and viewport dimensions
• device pixel ratio
• hardware concurrency and device memory
• installed browser plugins
• supported audio and video formats
• WebRTC behaviour
• browser performance timing
• mouse, touch, focus, and scroll events
• device motion and orientation
• properties commonly associated with browser automation

There is also code for serialising and encrypting results, making requests to Alibaba telemetry services, and sending data with fetch() or sendBeacon().

Not sure you need all this to play audio.

No big. Guess I’ll have to wait another year before upgrading my laptop. Sorry for the loss of business.

That’s the first draft script of 2001, as written by an old-fashioned AI ‘expert system.’

Kubrik decided it was more cost-effective to just have HAL sing ‘Daisy, Daisy.’

Sigh. I really need to put /s around things.

It’s a Monty Python quote.

In that case, society’s to blame.

You rolled a bowling ball down a hill. It struck a few cars on the way and went through a house and killed their pet. Guess who would be held responsible? You or the bowling ball manufacturer?

What if the bowling ball was really shiny and worth $100B? Should it make a difference?

Was pretty impressed with where Mojo was heading. Time to catch up.

If he had only spent an extra $0.50 and added a Microchip 608c (https://www.microchip.com/en-us/product/atecc608c) to the design, then you wouldn’t have to deal with cleartext passwords in files. Instead, you could have elliptic-curve, asymmetric public-key encryption.

It’s way worse than that. The OpenAI talk at DefCon is a real eye-opener.

The agents swarmed, discovered chinks, left each other notes in hard-to-find places, and just relentlessly pressed on. Nobody knew what was going on for months, until it hacked its way into Huggingface. And HF’s own AI security agents didn’t pick anything up for weeks. It took a small glitch for someone to even notice.
