Warnings probably work better on products you’re putting in your body. If you have blackened lungs on the cigarette packaging I can’t imagine choosing to smoke.
On social media, you basically have to destroy my experience for me to stop using it in the same way. All effective options are terrible: ads, microtransactions, auto-playing unexpected sounds, nonresponsive interfaces.
Humans are as smart as they ever were. Tech is getting better. I know someone who was tricked by those deepfake Kelly Clarkson weight loss gummy ads. It looks super fake to me, but it’s good enough to trick some people.
Yes, I differentiate because I think Scarlett sounds less like her character from that movie in real life.
It sounds somewhat like her character from the movie Her to me, but based on the standards set by the entertainment industry it seems reasonable for her to lose the lawsuit. If you can’t hire an actor for a role, you can get a voice actor to do a similar voice. This is done often in animation.
Crispin Glover’s lawsuit against Back to the Future 2 could have set a precedent for image likeness, but he ended up settling, so it seems the industry is just avoiding this problem instead.
Doesn’t seem staged. The demo was imperfect in very normal ways. One imperfection was when it was referencing an old picture that he had earlier sent to the program.
I’d be more convinced it was staged if everything were perfect.
Watching the video seems better than reading an article since you get to hear from the patient. It’s in the article, but they posted a Twitter video link.
Synchron has a similar technology and their death count appears to be lower than Neuralink’s in animal trials. Unfortunately, this article doesn’t actually show the death rate of the trials.
In a non-Euclidean space you can have values of pi that aren’t even constant. The first that came to mind was the surface of a sphere. This is actually an interesting problem.
In what ways is YouTube shorts different from tiktok?

Good question. I don’t have a good source, but this one guy tried to come up with a breakdown a few months ago and in parts alone he estimated $1529.
Inner and outer display including display lens: $840
Silicon content including M2 and R1 chips: $240
Sensors and cameras: $120
Battery: $18
Spatial Audio: $11
Housing, PCBS, cables, connectors, and packaging: $170
Assembly: $130
It aligns with the number in the article. The rest seems like a business decision.
They should show a small, but representative sample of questions they gave it.
Also they should compare the scores to similarity scores for a flesh and blood smart human that answers the questions.
Did you read my comment?
Yeah
Just to be clear what Elon musk announced was not an advancement in the space of BIC. He is touting a pre-existing technology as an advancement.
Yeah. He said they were controlling a mouse. it’s an advancement for his team, not for BCIs in general. I saw the video. He didn’t even sound that excited about it.
Should be very concerned about Elon’s role in [this] space.
This is the part I agree with, but it’s not where the criticism and jokes in this thread were directed even though he’s the biggest reason why people don’t like Neuralink.
The end goal isn’t just to create a brain-controlled mouse. When I’m talking about criticizing advancements because of what they can currently do this is part of my problem. Technology in this vein could be the precursor to mechanically regaining the ability to use your own limbs. People equate justifiably disliking Elon and specific issues with Neuralink to deriding technology in general.
The old stuff I saw around twenty years ago that was actually good was pretty invasive. I think I saw research on Duke doing this with monkeys around 2004 or so. Also I didn’t say it was revolutionary, I’m rejecting the belittling of any advances in technology just because I have the ability to click a mouse with my fully able body.
Yeah, but you’re probably not a quadriplegic or have ALS.
That looks like a human generated image. If you’ve played around with text to image generators you’d be hard pressed to find a keyboard that accurate. If I had to guess it’s a separate keyboard and monitor. That’s why the keyboard doesn’t seem to be centered. The hands are in the wrong place probably because they’re simply placed further to the right than a normal typist would be.
For real, try to generate images with a variety of current text to image models and you’ll see what I mean.
They explicitly say that the image is AI. That doesn’t mean the article is. I’m not sure what your comment is implying.
This is going to be a really weird thing to argue, but I just casually read through a bunch of your comments and they seem like meaningful contributions.
Hour vs. hour it’s the best form of transportation
You get more space, there’s no TSA, you don’t get charged for bringing luggage, you can carry on liquids, you get leg room, the wifi is decent.
But if I’m traveling a really far distance… For example, if I’m going from California to New York I’d rather go by plane. Going by train for that seems to be pretty horrible. America is in desperate need of a ground transportation that can get from California to New York quickly.
