- kranke155I think you should. But my own experience when learning programming was there were few ways of learning programming that seemed properly tested or pipelined to actually teach programming. You had to hodgepodge your own materials if you were like me and doing self learning, from half a dozen books and online courses and workshops. I felt like programming needs a Montessori - someone who deeply understands human learning and makes it easy for multiple personalities to learn at their own pace. IMO.
- They will use the analogy that’s most advantageous to them at any point.
- Of course they do. And yes there is proof for AI chatbots now, see the link in the other post, but in the last 10 years (since the Cambridge Analytica purchase by Bob Mercer) the usage was sock puppet networks and basic auto reply bots. However, they were microtargeted to individual psychology. So yes they work.
We now have multiple networks discovered in multiple countries, ie Analytica, Team Jorge in Israel, Internet Research Agency in Russia. And that's the ones we know about. Why would multiple countries double down on an idea that doesn't work?
Every right wing movement in Europe that had any contact with Bannon through his "The Movement" "data analytics" training program has all the outer appearances of running a large bot program, now using LLMs. In Portugal for the origins of the bot network they traced them in Angola. In Brasil the origin was Israel.
- Fincher shoots for very long, does a lot of takes, lights everything like a film. Likely spends a lot of time in the editing room either himself directly or tinkering with the directors that direct the other episodes.
Notice how Mindhunter didn’t “look” like other Netflix shows. The reason for that is they lit it like a movie. And that takes time and money.
I work in the industry. The reason Netflix shows look a certain way is because they are not given the time to do it differently and are shooting almost documentary style or at least much much faster than a regular “prestige” show. Now a good director DP duo can still make this look good, even though it’s hard to do 20 set ups (low budget speed) instead of 5-10 a day (high budget). But that velocity means you shoot at twice the speed. Which is huge considering film costs are people costs. Production is often the expensive segment of a show like Mindhunter.
Fincher likely wouldn’t have agreed to drop episode count or shoot them faster, so they didn’t continue.
- Netflix shows are forced to become soap operas because although they might have the budgets approaching prestige TV, Netflix might force lengths that push the story into the soap format.
- Mindhunter was cancelled - too expensive.
- Mindhunter was cancelled for being too expensive.
- Those people left for Apple.
Reportedly.
- I bought on Black Friday, so pretty sure I got extended Gemini usage for 1.99
- Well then the usage is already so useful in Free mode that I didn’t even notice it. “Thinking ” has a meaningful cap. But I have not felt the need to pay for more. I pay for Claude.
- Gemini comes with the 1.99 Google One plan. So I use that
- That’s interesting but how much of this if written down, documented and made into video tutorials could be learnt by just about any good engineer in 1-2 weeks?
- What is this fantasy about people being unemployed? The layoffs we’ve seen don’t seem to be discriminating against or in favor of AI - they appear to be moves to shift capital from human workers to capex for new datacenters.
It doesn’t appear like anything of this sort is happening and the idea that good employer with a solid technical team would start firing people for not “knowing AI” instead of giving them a 2 week intro course seems unrealistic to me.
The real nuts and bolts are still software engineering. Or is that going to change too?
- Not now, but ask me that question in 5 years.
- Thanks. I didn’t realise what that meant in context.
- Why would you go full on ? There is no learning curve it seems like. What is there to learn about using AI to code?
- It’s the opposite. The more you know to do without them the more employable you are. AI has no learning curve, not at the current level of complexity anyway. So anyone can pick it up in 5 years and if you’ve used it less your brain is better.
- What do you think it could be ?
- Someone will take his place, and they might be worse?
- Literally doubled while I was building my new machine. Insane.
