If neural nets are a dead end, what do you think researchers should be looking into instead?
>>
>>107743505
They should stop masturbating about stateless mathematical models (because both symbolic AI and neural networks are about logic and math not computing or programming) and start focusing on stateful programs that are actually agentic (in the original sense of the word not in the llm corrupted marketing sense) by having internal state, internal goals and a real model of the world (LeCun is right about this part), all of this not through mathematical models but through programming. If our current languages and databases are not enough then we should make progress there, for example by researching graph databases and new languages that make expressing complex and dynamic rules about the real world possible.
But corpos only want to sell their datacenter services, to them its a feature how inefficient LLMs are, and most researchers are not programmers they are stuck in their bubble of academia writing their papers in their ivory towers.

This guy's proposed alternative to neural nets is better programming languages and databases.

>>107743670
The connectionist idea that the brain is an input/output stateless machine is ridiculous and an insult to life.
Yes, the road to intelligence goes through stateful programming not through stateless mathematical models.
And yes, computer science has barely advanced at all in the last 40 years, but that's because all the resources are used on bullshit corporate or academic shit that is not even meant to advance it.
>>
>>107743698
Apparently, actually most advanced (human like AI) Neurosama was coded in python and it didn't learn from LLMs, but from twitch chats only. Basically mogging all "AIs" while being made from scratch. It's not the same kind of "AI" but looks more like intelligence than the other ones.

I mentioned on a /pol/ thread about SSD prices that I had a Samsung 840 pro SSD that had basically been on 24/7 since I bought it 14 years ago. An anon in that thread wanted crystaldiskinfo but I was too lazy to reinstall windows on it. Then a Russian anon told me about smartmontools. Hopefully both of them will find this thread since that one is now archived.
Now, to the main two points of this thread.
-Can anyone beat my high score?
-How long do you think this MLC SSD can last? Because I'm going to run it until failure.
>>

>How long do you think this MLC SSD can last?
As long as you want, it depends on how much you write on it. I think it could last longer if you don't write that much to it and treat it read-only unless you have to really change things.

No one cares? For decades this smooth presentation was the standard for live and taped television.

For example, for decades professional sports were presented in interlaced video formats with 60 fields per second of motion smoothness.
Now, when those old tapes are converted and uploaded to streaming services 99% of the time they are only available in 30 frames per second. The two fields will have been blended together to make a frame. And they use pretty harsh methods to do it, because they want to get rid of all possible combing artifacts, so you get a much softer image than the original presentation. Detail is lost.

This "live sports" feel is lost in the process, and anyone who watched football, basketball, boxing, or pro wrestling in the 20th century can tell you how it used to look a lot better than what is on the streaming networks now, even if they can't describe the technical details.
>>
>>107744065
>If it's shot on film or video it doesn't matter.
Yes it does! That makes a huge difference! The tape formats of the 70s through 2010s recorded in native interlaced video format.
The 60 fields per second smoothness is inherent to the format, and was preserved through the broadcasting signal chain.

>Lives were different though.
And live TV made up a massive amount of television history!
>>
>>107744042
This isn't about nostalgia. This is about actual loss of information. You're being denied seeing the great majority of 20th century television as it was supposed to be seen.
>>
What's pretty bad is if you search for 60 fps videos of old tv shows on youtube the majority of them have been converted to 60 fps via adding fake frames rather than using an original source.
>>
If you want to see some examples of what 60 fields per second look like there is a channel on youtube called Reely Interesting. This person preserves the motion clarity of the original tapes by uploading in 4k 60 frames per second.

Nobody's going to learn the bash terminal unless they are some basement dweller who lives on their PC. Even people who use their PC for work aren't going to fuck around with stuff like that. The terminal went away in the early 1990s on Windows and Mac because it's trash and linux hasn't evolved with them.

it's still a locked down platform that is a pain in the ass to support and consumer-hostile, see asahi linux troubles to get everything working on various M generations.
>But now Intel has nearly caught up with ARM performance on its x86 mobile Lunar Lake chips.
yes because arm, x86, riscv, it really does not matter, cpu these days all have some kind of very similar "internal assembly language" that split all the uops into smaller instructions anyways, it's all about design tradeoffs, amd/intel have been making chips with certains loads in mind and apple with others, it's really all there is to it.
I'm glad to see intel and amd getting into this segment too as we definitely need power efficient and performant chips, it's a shame that it will be bga-only, for now amd allow manufacturers to use soldered or dimm ram but I'm not sure it will last as ram speed get faster and faster... maybe camm2 can save us?
I really want socketable efficient chips even if I lose a bit of efficiency as a trade-off, I'm sure there is a good middle-ground atleast for efficient desktop-class computers like the steam machine design-wise or consoles.
