NVDA has more money than they know what to do with. One strategy when you have extra money is investing it in equities. You exchange money for a slice of future profits. Not sure what the confusion is here


Generating electricity is much cheaper than paying a human. The costs of employing a person have little to do with their energy usage


This is probably on purpose because meta wants to kill third party ad buyers and have customers just directly use their first party ad buying platform


The algorithm is optimized to show you content you tend to engage with. You couldnt get it to show you meaningful interaction because you didnt engage with it.


Memory and storage has always been very cyclical. This is nothing new


That you are buying a bundle and it doesnt matter how much of the bundle you use you pay the same amount every billing period?


So if I buy entry to the swimming hall that allows me to be there for 4 hours but also allows me to leave earlier you would call that a flat rate?

I have never noticed there are people who interpret it that way.


If it allows you 4 hours total per month yea


The point of this benchmark is that making decent SVG art is actually useful. Simon has private image prompts he uses, since he didnt say gemini failed at those it is reasonable to assume those were also successful.


I just think this is insanely pedantic. Most art is not photorealistic, and in fact imo having a crown on the fork may very well make this image worse by taking away from the aesthetic.


Sure, if the "uncanny valley" aesthetic is what you're going for, then by all means, tell the machine to shrink the wheels further.

It's just not what makes a great bicycle picture.

Also, that bicycle's seatpost must be outright penetrating that pelican's cloaca.

You can say I'm being anal about it, and you'll have a point. But it's not that pedantic to notice it.


I think the seat post and the angle of the fork are issues but I just don’t think that the greatness of an image of a bicycle has anything to do with whether you can tell that the fork is a separate piece of metal from the frame. The prompt here isn’t about making an image so that an alien who has never seen a bike can make one, it’s about people recognizing that it’s a normal looking bike and the emotional response that comes from that. The emotional response the vast majority of people have looking at this isn’t “that bike won’t ride”


>a normal looking bike

The wheels are comically small, and the seat is up the pelican's ass. Pardon me, cloaca.

That's not a normal-looking bike to me, but you are welcome to be happy about it.

>The emotional response the vast majority of people have looking at this isn’t “that bike won’t ride”

Right, that's the very definition of a bar for what we call "AI slop".

Looks kind of OK, until you actually look at it.


Friedman's Zelensky interview was terrible but I think that has more to do with him being a russian nationalist than a bad podcast host


"100% of AI researchers think we will have AGI this century" isnt the same as "100% of AI researchers think theres a 100% chance that we will have AGI this century"
