Who has been saved? The US has been doing much more harm than good.

Breaking changes don't require a rewrite.

Would it be practical to use high resolution spherical harmonics as a replacement for cube maps?

Not really. Besides the problems with ringing outlined in the post, the number of coefficients required to capture higher frequency detail grows quadratically, requiring not only more storage but also operations to evaluate. Which makes straightforward cubemap replacement impractical.

Every hardware key will be broken if there is enough incentive to do so. Their claims read like pure hubris.

Who cares about AI privacy? Most people don’t. If you do, run locally.

Isn't that windows only?

Where did he say he's not worried about other billionaires?


Where did he say that he is, that's the point. Otherwise their comment is disingenuous at best or engineered to be divisive against Oracle at worst.


> at best or engineered to be divisive against Oracle at worst.

Oracle can go suck donkey balls for all I care, is this divisive enough for you?


You want every discussion about one billionaire to be about all of them?

And you want to generalise this to every topic?


Is there any information on how many of the participants realized the victim was just acting? Surely it can’t be zero.

The “complete breakdown” does not refer to the experiment, but the fictional setting of the experiment.

The article doesn’t claim that the experiment was invalidated, but that some conclusions drawn from it are not well founded.


I experimented with disassembling 6502 from the c64 California Games. Claude was very prone to bullshit.


For RE cases where I know the original compiler used (a bit harder on C compilers due to huge number of obscure optimization flags), I give it a feedback loop to write a function that compiles to the original machine code.


Yeah, I had perfect disassembly, since that's a purely mechanical process. I used da65, which worked reasonably well.

But you don't get any function names that way, obviously. Claude would claim some random function were applying friction based on just a subtraction. And a variable that had 2 possible states was named player_id, when the game supports 1-8 players.

It was a bit better when the memory addresses were known IO registers, but not by much.


While somewhat counterintuitive, I have found that Claude is better at decompilation than disassembly.


AI models in general seem to get different assembly languages mixed up easily.
