You circumvented their TOS, by using an alt account to evade a ban on a subreddit. That's why they banned you from Reddit itself.
There are a few other new heavy lift rockets in development around the world. Some people think Spacex's Starship will make them obsolete, but it doesn't seem like it will be ready anytime soon.
If someone can build robotic systems that are entirely made up of 3D printed components, that seems very possible.
A lot like Uber, in other words. But replicating a ride-hailing network with a 14-year head start will be no easy feat, especially considering the scale Uber has achieved.
I don't get the logic here. If you have The fleet of robotaxis, it seems the software to run them it's the easy part. Loads of competitors to Uber have equally good software. The bottle neck here is the supply of robo-taxis. The journalist writing this has also ignored the fact cheap Chinese cars will probably be what will dominate this space ultimately.
I've been familiar with his ideas for years, even though intellectually I could see they were true, emotionally I always felt they were science-fiction. Now this is starting to look like science-fact.
Like Covid, it seems humans have to wait until disaster is right on their doorstep, before they pull themselves together to do something about it.
For anyone familiar with the ideas behind what Ray Kurzweil called 'The Singularity', this looks awfully like it's first baby steps.
For those that don't know, the idea is that when AI gets the ability to improve itself, it will begin to become exponentially more powerful. As each step will make it even better, at designing the next generation of chips to make it more powerful.
The model family is "a new suite of state-of-the-art multimodal models trained solely with next-token prediction," BAAI writes. "By tokenizing images, text, and videos into a discrete space, we train a single transformer from scratch on a mixture of multimodal sequences".
Every single time it looks like closed Big Tech AI systems might steal a lead, open source is never far behind snapping at their heels. Now it seems it's the same story with multi-modal AI.
I wonder what number of these will be robo-taxis in the next 18 months? Uber recently partnered with BYD to introduce 100,000 robo-taxis in Abu Dhabi and Singapore. When it gets to those kind of numbers in the US the wider public will really start to notice the driving job losses. Some day the shoe is going to drop, and people will realize all human driving jobs are on the way out forever.
Is the UK contemplating tariffs on Chinese EVs?, if not that will be one of the few advantages of Brexit, as the EU has just agreed to mandate them.
I am aware that they have a state insurer in Florida. They are going to need it. I can't see a single private insurance company wanting to touch anything to do with rebuilding in areas affected by this. They know climate change is getting worse, and this is only going to happen soon again.
