Here she is! Had to work a little late to get her done today, but I'm pretty happy with the result:

@WhiteVanVR1 Sounds cool! Looking forward to your trailer :)

ARTEMIS has launched! A new era for archaeology & heritage conservation begins. We kicked off ARTEMIS, an EU-funded project that is redefining archaeological conservation with Reactive Heritage Digital Twins (RHDTs) 🔗 Learn more: artemis-project.eu

First prototype of my #VirtualReality #keyboard is ready to show to my advisor next week. It still has some bugs, but it does what it says on the tin: it allows for one or two-handed #typing in #vr on #Quest3. Built with #UnrealEngine. Here's a video showing it off:

@VictorTaelin While I agree with your position and overall stance, science also doesn't explore "whole new, unexpected space of ideas that don't connect to anything we've discussed before"

This tweet will probably be deleted in 512ms because I'm most likely wrong and I don't want to upset people, but - I feel like ultimately what might be happening with the AI space is that people (including very smart people) are incorrectly affected by the illusion that a technology that is inherently incapable of reasoning will eventually do it. That illusion is fueled by the inherent difficulty that the human brain has to grasp large scales, and how something that has essentially memorized the entire internet is statistically very likely to answer your question intelligently by pure recall, because you're yourself very predictable and the things you can ask it are most likely close to a space of ideas that another human had in the past. This is causing these AGI labs to push models into this weird "reasoning" direction that also seems to work because it is suddenly able to nail these math benchmarks, but, again, that's an illusion because, even if these questions aren't directly in the dataset (and they probably are), they still lie inside this small space of human ideas. And the problem with this is that we're trying to make models reason precisely because we want them to expand science, but expanding science requires precisely the one thing LLMs can't do, which is explore a whole new, unexpected space of ideas that don't connect to anything we've discussed before. A few years before quantum physics was discovered, its core ideas were completely outside of human discourse, thoughts, and no amount of circling the same box (which is what reasoning models do) would get us there. So, we keep trying to make these models do something they'll never do - invent new science - and that's frustrating because this, in turn, makes LLMs do worse on what they excel, which is (sorry but...) being a glorified auto-complete. That is, a bot that, given the human-provided reasoning, goes on to produce the actual boring work. Sonnet is really effective to me precisely because it is very deterministic, it isn't trying to be too smart and it will just do exactly as I ask. If my instruction is wrong, it will be wrong too, and that's actually a feature. o1, on the other hands, will try to be too smart, and that will make it completely chaotic and unreliable when you just want it to follow instructions. Now, probably as a response to o1, I'm almost sure Sonnet-3.6 incorporated some kind of "mini reasoning" on it, which makes it slightly less good to me. I hope that Anthropic doesn't keep going in that direction and instead just make Sonnet-4 a natural extension to whatever they did with the original Sonnet-3.5, because a fully deterministic Sonnet-4 with 10x effective context size would absolutely groundbreaking to my own work, and certainly way more useful to me than a model that takes a lot of time to spit objectively worse code.

o1 pro's math skills are very impressive 😮. Here is o1 pro solving Q3 (the hardest question) from IMO 2006 in 6 minutes and 48 seconds. For contrast, in 2006, out of roughly 500 or so top Math kids under 19 in the whole world only 28 were able to fully solve it...and they had 4 and a half hours to do so...And no one from the 6 person US team could do it... I've tried this question with every other model (including o1) and this is the first time that I've seen an AI model get the answer correct. P.S. Obviously this is a very summarized solution so I did ask it to show work especially on steps 4/5. The expanded thought process was just as impressive.

@RiotIksar Honestly, one particular application I had which had to render a lot of things would take so long windows would assume it had hanged, but that popup window would basically halt the application from progressing so... yes. Had to click wait to get windows to let it go.

@protopop We didn't exactly have a plan the last time automation boomed, either, we just kind of winged it.

It’s tough to accept, but this isn’t just some distant concern - big corporations are driving AI and robotics that could - and let's face it, likely will - replace tens of millions of jobs or more. Does anyone have a plan to deal with this? How will society absorb this impact?

@iBrews @LKGGlass Is LiveLink just sending that much data? I've used it before (though not for facial mapping) and it behaved pretty sanely.

@toncijukic @Games_Teaching Use a source control system that supports file locking. Don't do feature branches with blueprints, they don't merge period. Use feature-flag like development via game feature plugins instead. Use Unreal as your blueprint diffing tool, you can launch it standalone from your VCS.

I've said it before and I'll keep saying it; there's only one correct answer to "what is the best ratio of C++ vs BP" for a project. It's whatever ratio helps your team ship your game 💪 #uetips

Digging through some interviews about the development of SoulCalibur 6 in UE4! The Producer, Okubo-san, mentions how pretty much everything outside of the core battle system was using Blueprints and it helped them speed up development immensely.

@evelyn_schwab I just made all my player input methods call out event dispatchers instead of running the functions directly. Then I can have run-in-editor functions that call those same dispatchers to test input.

Cool enhanced input feature I was not aware of (knowing about this would have saved so much time in previous projects. I am in mourning).

@VoithontasPol They produce VASTLY more oxygen, take less space, are easier to maintain, and do not cause damage to infrastructure in the event of growth or storms. They can also be placed into an urban area and begin to function immediately at full capacity, rather than waiting for growth.
