A new report reveals OpenAI's audio transcription tool, Whisper, has recorded consistent "hallucinations", according to multiple studies.
Soft-serve machines get a not-quite-parfait exemption to DMCA circumvention rule.
This is something that irritates me personally because I’ve used those quotes from Elon about service to counter the hesitation of many potential Tesla buyers regarding the maintenance and service of electric vehicles.
Elon’s statement reassured them, but if that was ever really the plan, it certainly isn’t anymore based on the latest results.
Tesla’s gross margins for service and selling replacement parts are surging, and Tesla is proudly saying it in its financial results.
Google is gearing up to unveil its latest AI language model, Gemini 2.0, in December, according to insider sources from The Verge.
Another indication of the plateau thesis: OpenAI has just confirmed that a new model, internally considered as a potential successor to GPT-4, will not be released this year, despite looming competition from Google Gemini 2.0.
Similarly, Anthropic is rumored to have put a previously announced version 3.5 of its flagship Opus model on hold due to a lack of significant progress, instead focusing on an improved version of Sonnet 3.5 that emphasizes agent-based AI.
"There is some chance that HW3 does not achieve the safety level that allows for unsupervised FSD," he added.
Translation: all the times Tesla has vowed that all of its vehicles would soon be capable of fully driving themselves may have been a convenient act of salesmanship that ultimately turned out not to be true.
Yet less than two weeks before Election Day, the Post’s opinion-section staff does not know whether the paper will run an editorial endorsement for president, according to two people at the Post with knowledge. (They asked for anonymity to talk about internal matters at the paper.)
The last time The Post did not make an endorsement for president in the general election was 1988, according to a review of archives. The Post has been endorsing candidates for local office this fall. The New York Times endorsed Harris on Sept. 30.
Bezos's new chief executive and publisher at the Post is Will Lewis, who has conservative bonafides. Lewis held the same role at Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal; served as the editor of the London-based Telegraph, which is closely allied with the Tory party; and was a consultant to Conservative Boris Johnson when Johnson was prime minister. Colleagues have told NPR that Bezos selected Lewis in part for his ability to get along with powerful conservative political figures, including Murdoch.
Scientists with the U.S. Department of Energy say an object once predicted only in theory has now been captured in 3D X-ray images.
More than half of the living US recipients of the Nobel Prize for economics signed a letter that called Vice President Kamala Harris’ economic agenda “vastly superior” to the plans laid out by former President Donald Trump.
Quantum entanglement is where two particles become interconnected and share a single state. But how and when do particles become entangled?
Musk has also used his platform to go head-to-head with election officials who try to refute his conspiracies. This weekend he posted on X claiming that Michigan has more registered voters than eligible citizens. Michigan Secretary of State Joceyln Benson responded with a correction, saying that there are not more voters than citizens in the state. "There are 7.2 million active registered voters and 7.9 million citizens of voting age in our state," her post said. "@elonmusk is spreading dangerous disinformation."
Non-citizen voting is not widespread, and it is already illegal for non-citizens to vote in national elections. Non-citizens who vote can face fines, prison time, or even deportation. A Washington Post analysis of the conservative Heritage Foundation's data found that of 2 billion votes cast since 1979, there were only 85 cases involving allegations of non-citizen voting.
An observer at Andrews Field went outside to look at the sky and saw a bright orange light. At the same time, a mechanic on an airstrip, who knew nothing of what was going on, called in to report that he had seem the same strange object. During the night the National Airport tower radar and the Andrews Field radar had recorded an object at the same place. There it was, a something fixed on three different radar scopes confirmed by two eyewitnesses.
The agreement between theoretical predictions and experimental data means that, using the parton model and data from the high-energy region, it has been possible for the first time to reproduce the behavior of atomic nuclei so far explained solely by nucleonic description and data from low-energy collisions. The results of the described studies open up new perspectives for a better understanding of the structure of the atomic nucleus, unifying its high- and low-energy aspects.
