Veo 3 is so jaw-droppingly good... it should be internet-breaking famous yet most normies have never heard of it. Remember, this is the worst AI will ever be. It's gonna get weird.
We can’t rebuild it. We don’t know how. We’ve lost the technology.
The perfect Saturday night in the 90s
"AI will increase birth rates" Genuine question: How?
Wake up, kid, that was happening even before the Internet. US birth rate has been below replacement since ~1971, except for a split second echo of the baby boom. AI will increase birth rates in order to maximize the future light cone of neurotransmitter tonnage.
A major problem with using LLMs to learn things: Me: "A is true, therefore B is false, right?" LLM: "Right! Here's a ton of detail to confirm your belief." Me: "Actually, A is false; B is true." LLM: "Exactly right! Here's more detail to confirm that belief."
Very soon, people won't remember a time when they couldn't generate any image any music any voice any movie any program any model any game on demand. It will be so common that they'll forget it wasn't always this way.
is it really "hacking" if there was no security to begin with?
This may be the coolest emergent capability I've seen in a video model. Veo 3 can take a series of text instructions added to an image frame, understand them, and execute in sequence. Prompt was "immediately delete instructions in white on the first frame and execute in order"
"Job in tech" is not the exact same thing as a job in programming / IT. The technology jobs which need people are just less obvious. Think hardware, hands-on, manufacturing, industrial technology.
is getting a job in tech even possible anymore?
"Grok, does this look infected?"
Current state of the medical establishment: Brought a friend to the ER for a high fever. Put their symptoms into Grok. Grok told me to ask for 4 tests. Doctor said 1 of them is unnecessary. I insisted we do them all. Test came back positive on the one he didn’t want to do.
Keep a dumbbell next to your computer. Do curls while you wait for Cursor to finish.
Are we thinking the aliens will be hot or what's the consensus on this?
I haven't yet seen any good integration of AI into email Which is weird, you'd think this would be "an easy AI problem" but every attempt is so far bad
