    get ready for a hooot summer 🤣 but i guess hees going for the idea with the cloud ships 😁 surface temperature on venus can melt lead and the air pressure is about what you get under 1km of ocean so not really a place to plan your picknick hehe.

    Well, 1000 billonairs less in the World are not so bad at all, they are good in this things as they shown in the Titanic expedition.

    I think it's the game not allocating enough Ram. Maybe it isn't an issue for you depending on your game settings. The game obviously consumes more Ram when you crank up the graphics settings.

    Yes, naturally it demands more resources at higher settings, but due to its minimal requirements there should be no problem on current equipment even at the highest settings, at least not on my laptop, which isn't exactly a NASA PC either.
    The same thing happens with the Tomb Raider 2013 that I have, which runs smoothly on maximum settings, without my laptop exploding into spontaneous combustion.
    They are exquisitely optimized games with graphics that you would not expect with such low system requirements.
    I have tried games with much more rudimentary graphics that I was not able to put above 15 FPS, due to how poorly they were optimized.

    I played it through a few years on Windows 10, and didn't need a patch there (even though I also had occasional crashes when changing the levels/chapters, especially chapter 4), but, on Win 11, the game crashed every time after the tutorial level. I'm pretty sure the patch also helps against the crashing on Windows 10. 

    No problem with crashes, maybe GPU related, but anyway nice to know about the patch.

     

    Some parts of the game remember to TDM, related to stealth, rope-arrows, among others, some environments could have been perfectly from some TDM missions. Maybe someone can "steal" some ideas for a future TDM mission

    In W10 it works flaeles without patch. Its somewhat strange, it was a game only for WinXP and never works well in W7, even with a patch. But in W10 I never had problems. And now you say it needs again a Patch in W11?

    Very strange. Anyway, yes, it's a real Gem which I like a lot. Amazing image quality and playability for so few resources it need.

    Some time ago I was looking for a good app to share files, since I wanted to become independent from the famous Imgur, which I find with so many trackers and privacy problems not at all reliable. In Windows I use ShareX, which is perhaps one of the best screen recorders with a huge amount of functions and tools, but it also uses Imgur as an image sharer by default, but allows you to change it. At first I replaced it with vgy.me., an excellent imagehost and sharer, with good privacy, although only limited to images.
    But a few months ago I found File Coffee, which can be called the definitive solution, because it allows you to host and share any type of file, be it images, documents presentations, texts, multimedia, videos of any extension, it is 100% free, encrypted and private (Made in EU, GDPR norm) safe, blazing fast and stable.
    It admits without registration 15 Mb per file, with free registration, 30 Mb, being able to control the uploaded files. With this you can forget DropBox, GDrive, Imgur and a lot of other solutions, well, except for PK4 bigger than 30Mb. The best, it also had a own config app for ShareX, which with one click make all the needed settings in ShareX to be used in this tool.

    I don't want to take away from the significance of projects like this. It is amazing and an indicator of the marvels to come. But I must stand by my previous assessment. That's based on the date on the video (which predates their first demo video with GPT-3 by a month), the fact that the sequence of responses shows no processing delays at all, and the fact the description frames it as a demo of new actuators, besides my experience with how GPT LMs think (which to my knowledge are the first and only AI so far that show anything approach that level of self awareness).

    If the reaction is genuinely spontaneous it is a far more significant breakthough than anything else this group has done... like why would they be wasting their time with robotics if they had those kinds of insights about machine learning? I mean the alternative hypothesis is that these guys have invented some sort of facial recognition and emotive response prediction algorithm that can:

    1. Recognize its own reflection as a real-time image of itself.
    2. Be surprised to see itself, implying an ability to form expectations and a sophisticated theory of world.
    3. Realize it can use its reflection to test its own actuators.
    4. Do all of this in real time.

    That is an insane list of achievements, any one of which on its own would be able to raise millions in venture capital in a heart beat.

    I would love to be proven wrong about this, really, but for extraordinary claims I need extraordinary evidence. 🙂 In the meantime, for fun here is how GPT-4 reacts to a surprise mirror: https://chat.openai.com/share/ae22e99e-ef8d-4397-9cf6-55c8f8abc526
    (It's a little slower to catch on.)

    Okay, like I said, there's a long way to go already, but experiments on this show that bots with real intelligence and self-awareness are no longer something for the distant future. For good reason, AI companies are including kill switches.

    The real risk of AI is the lack of human intelligence and its abuse for greedy, manipulative and warlike reasons, instead of being a useful tool for everyone. The experiment with ChaosGPT was a good warning.

    Ameca has the language model of ChatGPT 3.5, but is way more than this. It's a cloud platform for human interactions, in continuous developement. It not react only to words, also of extern stimuli like a human does. It's not a joke with the mirror, but a test for this reactions. Naturally it's not something that we can call conciencious, but Ameca is the first step to it.
