And would they start killing themselves, first as random "AI agents hordes" and then, as time progresses, as "AI agents nations"?
This is a rhetorical question only by half, my point being that no AGI/AI could ever be considered as a real human unless it manages to "copy" our biggest characteristics, and conflict/war is a big characteristic of ours, to say nothing about aggregation by groups (from hordes to nations).
> Our biggest characteristic is resource consumption and technology production I would say.
Resource consumption is characteristic of all life; if anything, we're an outlier in that we can actually, sometimes, decide not to consume.
Abstinence and developing technology - those are our two unique attributes on the planet.
Yes, really. Many think we're doing worse than everything else in nature - but the opposite is the case. That "balance and harmony" in nature, which so many love and consider precious, is not some grand musical and ethical fixture; it's merely the steady state of never-ending slaughter, a dynamic balance between starvation and murder. It often isn't even a real balance - we're just too close to it, our lifespans too short, to spot the low-frequency trends - spot one life form outcompeting the others, ever so slightly, changing the local ecosystem year by year.
Put humans in a room in isolation and they get dumber. What makes our intelligence soar is the interaction with the outside world, with novel challenges.
As we stare in the smartphones we get dumber than when we roamed the world with eyes opened.
>As we stare in the smartphones we get dumber than when we roamed the world with eyes opened.
This is oversimplified dramatics. People can both stare at their smartphones, consume the information and visuals inside them, and live lives in the real world with their "eyes wide open". One doesn't necessarily forestall the other and millions of us use phones while still engaging with the world.
At present, it seems pretty clear they’d get dumber (for at least some definition of “dumber”) based on the outcome of experiments with using synthetic data in model training. I agree that I’m not clear on the relevance to the AGI debate, though.
You avoid a lot of things in a monolith. But normal services mapped to your org chart tend to be pretty nice. I hate how people spam "micro" service talk as if that's the end game for putting a physical boundary between software.
Typescript doesnt blow up when someone passes a legacy assumption into a static typed area of dynamic code.
I've seen too many bugs with PHP static typing for it to be worth it in mature systems. It's great in greenfield, but yeah, old code is hard to work it into unlike typescript which tends to be more forgiving. Though, I will say, typescript is just as viral if not more so.
Takes me around an hour or so to restore a 2tb drive from a HDD NAS with borg. Wasn't a full 2tb, and I might be off by an hour or so as it's been a minute. Usually I dd from the old drive to the new one over USB which doesn't take too long 30-40 minutes?
Its probably to be consistent across each platform, MySQL doesn't support named queries so they are likely avoiding using them for that reason, either that or the docs are old. :)
Is the question about how to version the query? You have comments before the query that allow you to name the exported function so you could have both queries and name them something different.
Hibernate Query Language. How is it out of context?
Use Named Native Query and you have SQL queries.
I really don’t understand the objection to ORMs. By that logic, you might as well reserve a block of memory and offsets instead of class/struct attributes.
