But they suggested that performance could still be improved with augmented algorithms, and in the paper's conclusion, team also speculates on a self-evolving machine that can design its own iterative upgrades and improvements.

While that may be a bit far off in the future, the AI did independently discover the 'von Nuemann architecture' through its observation of inputs and outputs.

Wow!

I thought Hersh had 'shot his bolt' over his Nordstream explosion speculation.

Hey Conservative voters, the rest of us are celebrating Canada Day!

Shameless bump for July 1st

With Poilievre weighing in last week, and Trudeau responding, Higgs has single handedly flashed US-style culture wars over to Canada.

What a really loathsome individual.

Anyone know how these rules will actually work? For example, will link aggregation sites like... lemmy be a target? Legally, how does one insert a boundary between news in google search and (say) a community like CanadaPolitics or WorldNews in lemmy? Yikes!

Ubuntu Studio (XFCE desktop). It's not the fanciest desktop, has one or two rough edges, and there are one or two tweaks I make right away on any new install, but I can get most things done without thinking about the OS at all now.

I like the UI eye candy of KDE, but I find it too weighty for an everyday use distro.

I used to use Debian plus XFCE, but it's a bit too spartan for me these days.

OP here. CLARIFICATION: First apologies, I should have framed this better originally, I will try to correct that here*.

My purpose in interacting with ChatGPT and asking about cognitive dissonance (c.d. hereafter) related to climate change denial was not to look for a clinical definition of c.d. nor to test how much ChatGPT "knew" about it, or to illustrate how cute LLM models could be. It was only to get a working starting point for a discussion.

My goal was, given a quick reasonable "average user" working definition of c.d., how could I a) relate that to climate change denial, and further b) what could those of us who are not "deniers" (for want of a better label) do to attempt to get beyond c.d. amongst those who are.

Opinion: It seems to me that we have to somehow try to go beyond publicising link after link on the apocalyptic impacts of climate change, although those impacts clearly are apocalyptic, and the facts are still extremely important to get out there. Honestly myself I feel I have to work towards some closure of the "c.d. gap" - which I believe is much more widespread than only out & out deniers (and includes myself).

@Mod /u/[email protected], I hope I'm not out of line here, if so, I apologise, please be gentle.

*I considered editing the original post to add this, but I do not want to 'move the goal posts' on the discussion, hence added as another comment.

Fair enough, I couldn't disagree at all.

Would be wonderful to sneak a peak at a historical analysis from ++50yrs: either it's Putin's masterstroke, or he's struggling to tamp down prima donna Prigohzin with his buddy Lukashenko's help. Occam's razor would certainly point to the latter.
