I might be able to borrow a digital copy and run a search through it, but im afk for now.

Did they? Dont think Rand thought that far and the robots were fan fiction.

Now I'm sad. And worried.

Not in a position to watch that, but looking at the description, please tell me they are joking.

At least we have Romero. Hoe had an edgelord phase, but only when younger and realized he fucked up.

Somebody on bsky mentioned this is prob because Disney wants to be seen on the stockmarket as a tech company, and not a cartoon/theme park company.

(See how Tesla went from cars to self driving to now robots)

But paying workers gives workers money, which means you lose. Instead of buying a robot, which gives another capitalist/company money, which means they win. They are the most class conscious class.

Nah he has brainrot. He deadnamed and misgendered Rebecca Heinemann in his eulogy of her. Transphobia seems to really make people worse at thinking.

(Not a big shock considering how bad his answer was towards the 'epic own' of the person asking him if he would hire more women. (He said: "we are having a hard time hiring all the people that we want. It doesn’t matter what they look like.", which sounds like a great own, but leaves one big question. Why aren't you trying to educate more people in what you want then? What are you doing to fix that problem if it is such a big problem for you? (which then leads to, how will you ensure that this teaching system has women in it, etc)))

E: and if that doesn't convince people he sucks: https://web.archive.org/web/20230528051421/https://www.giantbomb.com/john-carmack/3040-4576/forums/never-meet-your-heroes-john-carmack-throws-lot-in--1911724/ (this article seems to no longer exist live).

What, that doesnt even make sense. I dont type what im thinking. (My only real usage of llms was trying to break them, so imagine the output of that. And you could then imagine what you think I was trying to attempt in messing with the system. But then you would do the work. Say you see mee send the same message twice. A logical conclusion would be that I tried to see if it gave different results if prompted the same way twice. However, it is more likely I just made a copy paste error and accidentally send the wrong text the second time. So the person reading the logs is doing a lot of work here). Ignoring all that he also didnt think of the next case: people using an llm to fake chatlogs to optimize being hired. Good way to hire a lot of North Koreans.

If only people had stuffed Land in a locker instead of buying drugs of him.

Fun detail about this hype about 'innovation' (there was not just a poster but also an email) aircraft carriers use physical chits and a table for their planning. (Bonus, cant be hacked or emped). So gonna be fun to see if he will try to get rid of that and we might see a carrier sunk in the venezuelan/taiwan wars.

Two things, first thinking the llm stuff will help in robotics doesnt seem to fly, as llms are based on the whole internet and all books, a massive amount of data, data which for menial tasks doesnt exist yet. (And is also harder to get, creating text is easy).

And the story about how humanoid bots are great for working in a warehouse seems also wrong to me, as one of the problems we all have had is that of you are carrying things, the big box you are carrying obscures part of your vision. Different designs would be better for that. (Even a humanoid robot who has eyes on the back of its hands for example). Such a lack of imagination.

E: mentioned the lack of data being an issue, but I realized it prob is even worse as we dont even have a proper language to describe a lot of movements and feelings, due to reading this https://archive.is/uxzgz
