  • The solution for this is usually counter training. Granted my experience is on the opposite end training ai vision systems to id real objects.

    So you train up your detector ai on hand tagged images. When it gets good you use it to train a generator ai until the generator is good at fooling the detector.

    Then you train the detector on new tagged real data and the new ai generated data. Once it’s good at detection again you train the generator ai on the new detector.

    Repeate several times and you usually get a solid detector and a good generator as a side effect.

    The thing is you need new real human tagged data for each new generation. None of the companies want to generate new human tagged data sets as it’s expensive.












  • The Intel CEO had always come from engineering fab. This kept the high level decisions made by somebody who understood the product and how it was made.

    Then CEO and the head of fab was caught sexually harassing employees. They were both shown the door. So no CEO and the guy who was next in line were gone. They needed the number 2 in fab to take over fab to keep production up.

    So the board decided to make the CFO the new CEO. A guy who had a MBA was running a chip company that had only been run by engines.

    Profits went up for a while but then Intel struggled to maintain innovation and properly upgraded fab and chip design. Add the increasing skill of rivals and a increase in importance in chips other then server and desktop. which were the only areas Intel was king. It’s a recipe for failure.



  • Partially. Inverters providing virtual inertia is good but has the problem of still being active and reactive. It helps and is cheaper and more efficient than flywheels.

    Flywheels and turbines however provide a very sticky frequency. They help out a lot with stability and give inverters time to respond.

    Think balancing a stick on your hand vs anchoring it in clay.

    If we take enough turbines off line we are still probably going to need some mechanical power stabilization no matter how inefficient.

    But yeah I think we are going to see a blend using as much electrical and as little mechanical as possible.




  • It’s an interesting question as far as dead naming as well. Normally it’s just a dick move or an accident because of old habits. But in the case of people who did important work that might be published under an old name it can be useful to get them the credit.

    I’m a computer engineer so I looked up her work to see if I was familiar with it. I was wondering if I would need to lookup her dead name to find her important work. In her case her big book (which I recognized immediately and have on my shelf) was published after her transition so it wasn’t necessary.

    If it had been written pre transition it would have been a shame to not know she was the author.
