cheap (and not very good 🤷) edge detection based on precision difference

Launching on Wednesday, Sept 25. Stay tuned! Right now, #AI is having a moment — and it’s not the first time grand predictions about the potential of machines are being made. But, what does it really mean to say something like ChatGPT is “intelligent”? What exactly is #intelligence? The next season of the #Complexity #podcast, 'The Nature of Intelligence', explores this question through conversations with cognitive and neuroscientists, animal cognition researchers, and AI experts in six episodes. Together, we'll investigate the complexities of human intelligence, how it compares to that of other species, and where AI fits in. We'll dive into the relationship between language and thought, examine AI's limitations, and ask: Could machines ever truly be like us?

@Nekrik triggerol si ma. po rokoch si to dam zas

@nodefunallowed thanks :)

@mfandl people complaining about the C++ STL, names will not be given to protect the innocent

"They think writing a normal for loop is wrong and go through extreme mental gymnastics to avoid it" whatever is a for loop, is it like a foldl

We're excited to announce that applications are open for the Draknek New Voices Puzzle Grant 2024 🎉 The grant will award $15,000 to 6 thinky puzzle game developers from all over the world, and a year's mentorship with genre veterans. Deadline: October 7th More info 👇

@hipsterelectron I cant stand that word

Friends, I'm happy to announce that my paper with Dr. Émile P. Torres (@xriskology), The TESCREAL bundle: Eugenics and the promise of utopia through artificial general intelligence, is finally out on this issue of First Monday. firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/…

@sigfig could you please share the piece?

reading a thing from 2004 about engineering management, and back then the ai meme was genetic algorithms, and seeing people be hopeful that ai systems would meaningfully contribute to a design process within a few years is pretty sad in retrospect

@juliaifrank I really like got ised to do notation for writing longer anonymous functions and I miss it so much in other languages now

5. Last but not least, JuliaLang's compatibility. It 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 - because cooperation is better than competition.

@mtrc a beautiful piece :) thank you

turns out my model does not perform well because in #JuliaLang square root function is behaving ... oddly? 🥁

@Nekrik very inspiring btw, now I can use these little butt emojis instead of repeating the text. thank you

@Nekrik but that is precisely what it is! <3
