If you change a diaper because you think your baby pooped - but he'd just peed - is that a Type 1 or 2 error?

In the NYT today, Cade Metz implies that I left Google so that I could criticize Google. Actually, I left so that I could talk about the dangers of AI without considering how this impacts Google. Google has acted very responsibly.

Geoff Hinton quits Google so he can talk freely about AI risks. Says a part of him now regrets his life's work
“The idea that this stuff could actually get smarter than people — a few people believed that. But most people thought it was way off. And I thought it was way off. I thought it was 30 to 50 years or even longer away. Obviously, I no longer think that.” nytimes.com/2023/05/01/techn…

Does anyone know if @QuantaVici & @AdrienBeyk are legit or scammers? Took my money, didn't send the product, won't let me cancel, and say they won't offer a refund until they're 18 months late. They offered me my money back if I left positive reviews 😠 Scam or incompetent?

They did write an 'Ethical considerations' bullet point acknowledging the problematic potential for the AI to mislead people. They "believe some of these concerns can be addressed in future works."

The NFL is promoting MCMC, and I got so excited that Markov Chain Monte Carlo was getting some love! Turns out they meant "My Cause My Cleats"

Let's appreciate FTX for reminding us the true spirit of Thanksgiving: pillaging under the banner of kindness, then leaving your beneficiaries with a lot of awkward apologies to make.

You know you're nearly done with a paper or essay when the point is so obvious to you that you can't understand why you set out to write it in the first place 😛

The main reason I don’t like being the only woman in D&D groups is because one morning my noble (who was dealing with some family trauma) showed up with BANGS and none of the other players realized the emotional turmoil that this implied.

DALL-E 2 vs Midjourney vs StableDiffusion mega thread: photography, illustration, painters, abstract these image synths are like instruments - it's amazing we'll get so many of them, each with a unique "sound" 🤯 rules: same prompt, 1:1 aspect ratio, no living artists
