I don't think I've ever seen someone argue the morality of any particular country that they didn't live in. It seems like you may be conflating people's desire to avoid war and the involvement of foreign nations in wars.
I also don't think we should be fighting Russia but we should be defending ourselves from all forces that seek to mislead the public, both foreign and domestic.
Unless it's a portable console or a girlfriend, no one cares how small its box is.
Logically, aesthetics are irrelevant but truth is stranger than fiction because Nintendo made many millions by simply offering the same Gameboy console in different colors.
When it comes to GPUs, Hertz are irrelevant. Graphics are calculated in parallel using lots of computational pipelines. It's the number of pipelines * GPU speed that matters. You could have twice the speed per pipeline and only half the pipelines and then advertise it as twice as fast while maintaining the same computational throughput.
Of course, this doesn't even get into the matter of there being multiple types of processing pipelines (integer and single/double/quad precision) and differing ratios of each of them in the GPU.
1 - If you only said "could" knowing that it's not really a good solution, why post it all?
To make a point about the flexibility of NNs, duh.
2 - Given that you seem to agree that is not a good solution (e.g. not efficient), what is your answer to the poster that asked you about how you would sort bank records?
Processors designed for NN chips will be faster and scale to new heights. Also, sorting bank records is actually something trained NNs would kick ass at.
by removing hidden dots left behind by laser printers, which are usually used to watermark documents and track down leakers,
This is incorrect. The purpose of the dots and why they are limited to color printouts is because they are intended to be used to identify currency counterfeiters.
Forget implementing Excel, you could run the damn original by creating an x86 processor in a neural network. You do realize that brains are neural networks, right?
You mean now they have to actually make content that people enjoy rather than just coast on the name that made it? How do you expect giant studios to crowd out the little guy if the playing field is level?!;)
Any company, including chip makers and cellular providers, who think that Apple is their friend or partner is just fooling themselves. Apple is all for screwing everybody, from software makers to glass makers to consumers. How about that new AppleCare warranty with the huge deductible? No thanks. Not coming back to the brand. Enjoying this on my Alienware laptop with an OLED display AND touchscreen.
The Internet compels me to inquire... You mad, bro?;)
The problem is that FPGAs are really expensive. Neural networking chips are going to be the death of FPGAs because they can be made with cheap-o fab systems.
Don't you people see what happening here?! Elon is going to suck up all the sunlight with his solar panels and we'll have to pay him for electricity to turn on LED light bulbs! With no sunlight, all the plants will die and we'll have to pay him for electricity for our oxygen scrubbers! Someone has to stop this mad man!;)
The problem we have currently is that we are focused on creating specific types of circuits. What we should be doing is working on dirt-cheap generic circuits that can reconfigure into anything you want aka neural network chips. The advantage of these is that you can have flaws in the fabrication process and make up for it by just making a shitload of identical neurons. You could even make up for having a low speed system by having an ungodly number of neurons in a single machine. This opens the door to using low fabrication resolution to build monstrously deep silicon chips with thousands of layers.
The future is massive amounts of generic circuitry.
The annoying argument that "all violent crimes are hate crimes" is stupid and incorrect because a "hate crime" is a crime perpetrated not against an individual but rather indiscriminately against a member belonging to a group that the perpetrator hates.
What this really shows is that Intel is incredibly insecure because they are highly vulnerable. Intel doesn't really have a leg to stand on regarding patents for x86 so they are just lashing out and hoping to scare off people. They are reverting to their anti-competitive nature because they are now losing on both in the server market (due to AMD's Zen arch) and if Microsoft doesn't blow it, the commodity Desktop market could go to ARM. Intel has really earned this fate and I know they will break the law repeatedly to avoid it. They are getting their just deserts.:)
The crime he committed was wire fraud against his employees. I believe that we're all hoping they give this Isaac Choi fellow each and every moment he's earned in prison.

I have the seriously growing suspicion that AI is coming for us programmers and IT experts faster than we might want to admit,
Sounds like there will be a great market for fixing easily hacked programs made by AI. ;)
So you are applying your idiot thinking on him
No, dum dum, I was making a joke.
Since the Paris deal was never submitted to the Senate for confirmation, it is not a legally binding treaty, only a verbal agreement by Obama.
Shut up, Trump doesn't know that! ;)
I don't know how you think about our brains, but implementing an x86 in them is not a great idea.
you're a step behind this fellow.

This is really just the fallout from the devastating news on Friday that Microsoft is closing up shop on Docs.com. It's madness, sheer madness I say! ;)
I never said you would, I said you could. Know the difference.
Is this your way of admitting that you know jack shit about neural networks?

During the 1990s Xerox and other companies sought to reassure governments that their printers would not be used for forgery.

Wow, you aren't even trying to hide your ignorance.
My data is not centralized, it is on my computer and nowhere else.
This statement is a contradiction. If all your data is in one place then it's centralized, be it facebook or your own computer.

How do they plan to compete with intercontinental railroad? Do you really think Elon is making those boring machines for commuter traffic?

Glad we could clear that up.
