So tribal, your response. Is this a sponsored statement, from Meta? Is this Mark?

It’s easy to scale up when it takes one wind farm to generate 100% of your power. The US energy grid is massive.

It's not an ad hominem, it's an insult, dummy. Check what ad hominem means.

It's a pity schools don't teach people to just stop or say "I don't know", when they can't answer a question, instead of relying on ad hominems to end their conversations. You'd have benefitted.

There’s a whole class of hashes used for media fingerprinting/detection and they don’t work the same way as the ones you’re probably thinking of (the ones used for digital signatures and tamper detection).

Yes. A little while back, I had someone use a Computerphile video showing ChatGPT missing on college level physics questions as proof that ChatGPT is incapable of comprehension. The bar at this point has been set so high that apparently only a small minority of humans are capable of understanding.

Average PC upgrade cycle is more then 3 to 4 years if you look the Steam Hardware & Software Survey.

>How does quoting a Chatgpt improve education?
Yeah, ChatGPT is like a tertiary or worse level source. If Wikipedia is an unacceptable source, ChatGPT is at least an order of magnitude worse

>I don’t know how you want to define “understanding”
People routinely invent their own vague and ill-defined definitions of understanding, reasoning etc just so LLMs won't qualify.

No, because plagiarism is when you copy something verbatim, without creating your own authentic interpretation and expression. All art has elements of borrowing, but it's inventiveness, imagination, and some originality, that makes it art and not plagiarism.
The question is whether a machine is capable of inventiveness, imagination, originality, thinking, feeling, etc., or not, since those things have generally been acknowledged throughout history as being necessary elements of art. Wind and rain may carve patterns that are as beautiful as the most beautiful painting, but we don't call it art. Some people believe, or want to believe, that computers are capable of those things, and so we should call the patterns they produce, original, creative art. Others think that those things are not actually necessary, and we should call it art anyway. Personally, I think it's neither art nor plagiarism, but something else, that we don't have words for yet, and we're not sure how to deal with. It's a necessary discussion to work it out, but trying to fit dramatically new things into old categories is usually less successful than creating new categories.

Eh the exact same thing could have been said about the 10 series. 8 years later and the 1080 holds up really well.
No display port 2.1 and that they are stingy with VRAM doesn't mean the current gen is good long term tbh. I get you're saying the value proposition long term is good but I don't think so.
