And I think it ought to, but those expectations are mediated by people using and/or governing the technology -- like it's not Xerox's responsibility to prevent a fax machine sending hate mail. Expecting intrinsic adherence to all these social desires is a bit ridiculous. Transparency in particular; what does this even mean? The ability to inspect vast inscrutible matrices? It may be that they mean an AI has to intrinsically explain all its outputs, though that would actually limit its capabilities severely. Can you explain the mechanism of how you recognise a face or have an idea?
A.D. 774. This year the Northumbians banished their king, Alred, from York at Easter-tide; and chose Ethelred, the son of Mull, for their lord, who reigned four winters. This year also appeared in the heavens a red crucifix, after sunset; the Mercians and the men of Kent fought at Otford; and wonderful serpents were seen in the land of the South-Saxons.
They give the feeling that we're developing the field toward some magic ignition point, then it's going to be worthy of calling "true AI." AI is here already. Maybe they mean AGI? OTOH they probably don't know what they mean.
They could identify and remove these coerced review waves with the most basic statistical outlier analysis. It would be rather hard to organize a campaign to defeat this, i.e. you'd have to slowly ramp up the number of positive reviews over months to avoid sounding the alarm. Any review-centric site should be doing this as table stakes for upholding their reputation.
I think the relevant part of this statement is the verb not the object. Directing people to commit cyber crimes is not the same as receiving leaks from whistleblowers. Maybe I'm taking the troll bait...
They pulled devs from UT4 to help with the mega-successful Fortnite, but it's making so much money I don't understand how they can't afford to triple or quadruple the size of their team and pursue many passion projects like UT4 without any fear of insolvency. UT is such an awesome game (and whatever Quake's status, it doesn't have the game-defining shock rifle) that has appeased hardcore gamers for decades, and now they can well afford to give it some love again, so I hope they do.
To the first point, a balance of opinions between two particular zany polarities doesn't mean it's unbiased in other important ways. I meant more particularly the bias toward Amazon's interests, corporate interests, Bezos' interests.
Second: That's completely beside the point. When WP oversamples a bunch of Facebook-negative stuff into a hitpiece, I think it's important to know why are they interested in manipulating public opinion and to whose gain.
I'm not listening to anything from Washington Post that isn't pure and incontrovertible fact. Opinion pieces of any kind from such a biased and corrupted outlet are very close to propaganda. One simple example: if you advertise on WP, you will never get a hit piece no matter what you do. This is just Bezo's proxy in the information war.
With nothing less than civilization at stake, it's a wonder that these projects are being embraced by the organizations that understand implications of climate change.
The Concorde burnt 2 tonnes of fuel just taxiing the runways. 16L/100km per passenger in the air, or half the efficiency of the average car. I'm sure there will be relative improvements. But supersonic jets are a luxury few of us can afford monetarily, and none of us can afford in terms of emissions.
Yeah, there's no physical evidence that there was ever global flooding.
And I find the idea that an oral tradition would survive several thousand years of retelling to be...questionable.
Australian Aborigines have an accurate oral history that goes back over 10,000 years. Do a google search and there is much to read about.
A quote:
The researchers now believe that these stories could constitute some of the oldest accurate oral histories in the world, passing through some 300 generations.
> The Chinese research team said they were able to achieve the record temperature through the use of various new techniques in heating and controlling the plasma, but could only maintain the state for around 10 seconds. The latest breakthrough provided experimental evidence that reaching the 100 million degrees Celsius mark is possible
100 million degrees is a record for plasma, perhaps. If it proved that reaching 100mK was possible, it's only in the tokomak design, because the Z Pulsed Power Facility achieved 1 billion K in 2006!
According to the summary, there's no need to defend it because it's been superceded by GDPR, perhaps because the DPA was indefensible in the context of our tech giants.
Obvious basically just took some third party code and ran it. Their contribution was printing it out, while the real "artists" making these algorithms perform well are the engineers working on the GAN architectures. I hope all proceeds are donated to the AI community.

Why 'sic' when it's grammatically correct?

I don't like the theory that the "crucifix" it's aurora, as that wouldn't be periodic (to only show at the sunset, and likewise located).
I did a search, and novae can trigger electrical storms just the same as solar flares.

That "AI used to mean AGI" is slightly true. Everything else you claimed is rubbish.

I would if it were true. 35k / 5.7m is 0.6%
But 1/3rd makes for more impressive clickbait.

Was embedding part of their salesman script really necessary?

Peter Watts' Blindsight, after which I read the sequel Echopraxia, and another of his works 'Freeze Frame Revolution.'
Also by popular recommendation I read Hyperion by Dan Simmons, and am in the middle of 'Fall of Hyperion'.
I re-read Patrick Rothfuss' Kingkiller Chronicles books (4th time, I think), and the Stormlight Archives by Brandon Sanderson.
Pretty much all of them were thoroughly enjoyable.
You can still be a Starcraft 2 grandmaster, for a while.
Capitalism in a nutshell. If you want competition you have to accept egregious amounts of redundancy.

2.5km at 45,000mph can do a lot of damage.
