  1. Maybe you're on a work trip, and your laptop can't run games. Instead of getting a new laptop for the few days of the work trip you pay 16 dollars for 4 days of gaming. That's one case I can think of this isn't the intended use case but you can use this to get non-gaming friends into games you might like, that they don't have the hardware to run. Like a trial service
  2. Remember that generating fake video is only half of it. If I set up a security camera and catch a suspect that was stealing my stuff, they can just say in court that the evidence was ai generated. could this technology make security cameras obsolete? That would definitely be scary for some. At least based off ai plagiarism detectors, there's also a big false positive rate to take in mind.
  3. I mean it's probably just resistant to extreme heat in general which can include fires. But imagine you have a super important document on one of these and the building/vehicle you're in catches fire, that would be an issue if they aren't fireproof
  4. This is key. Rockstar would be insane from a financial standpoint not to prioritize online 2 because of the sheer amount of money that GTA online is making them. Just look at how activision prioritizes Warzone over "core" CoD multiplayer and I would expect Rockstar to do the same resources wise.
  5. I would not pay over 50 bucks for a streaming device, since I can literally buy a controller for that price and stream to my phone. Unless I'm missing something, I doubt the experience streaming to a streaming device is going to be significantly better than streaming to my phone
  6. I always thought that these "leaks" by companies were basically a marketing tactic to build up hype for people to watch the announcement. It being always right in the case of Apple makes me believe it more.
  7. Could you not just use the ps5 controller that you already have with your phone? I guarantee I've seen cheap phone holders that clip onto controllers too.
  8. I'm not really a big PlayStation person but they seem to have a remote play feature to stream to iPhones and iPads, why would you bother with this device when you can just do that?
  9. Its a shame because there really isn't anything else like warthunder either. If I want to play a somewhat arcade style vehicle combat game that allows you to play with aircraft and land vehicles there really isnt a good substitute right now. Its not going to because ultimately there is no competition in the specific niche that warthunder occupies so they can do whatever they want
  10. So why would I use this instead of connecting a Nreal Air to my already existing laptop?
  11. I don't think researchers or labs are going anywhere, regardless of the type of work being done. If anything, this will just make many parts of the research process more efficient. So there will still be a place for the next accidental discovery to happen. If you've ever read a scientific paper, at the end there's always a section about future work; things that can be improved upon. If we have a model read several papers in a given field, take the main idea of those papers and the limitations of them, then we could have a much better idea of that field and where it is headed. At that point, we (people or "AI") could easily design new experiments now that we know the limitations and trajectory of the entire field. When these knowledge gaps and areas for potential advancement are exposed to a wider audience, that opens up more people to design experiments and conduct them relating to the field. Which speeds up progress. When it comes to things like literature reviews, in the near future I think that can largely be automated as well. Meaning that it will be much easier for people to get a large aggregation of data on any given topic.
  12. It could reduce the amount of time that a doctor spends charting, allowing them to see patients more. It could also be used by insurance companies to more efficiently deny coverage claims. Legality wise though, I doubt that anyone would want an ai to have the same level of liability over a patient as a doctor. For a chemist or any other scientist it could suggest research topics after reading a lot of literature.
  13. that's unfortunate. 3-4 years down the line I hope they change their mind. Hopefully it will be easier and more cost efficient for them to design a new motherboard that works with the old steam deck instead of creating a steam deck 2. From what I've heard (although this might just be a rumor) the deck is sold at a loss and the idea is to make up the difference with more steam sales, and designing a new motherboard to keep existing deck users on SteamOS instead of giving them the chance to upgrade to a windows handheld system might make sense. But that's just my speculation
  14. I hope that Valve will sell updated motherboards with newer chips in the future that current steam deck owners could slot in. At least so far they seem to have made the deck pretty repairable, and having a modular upgradable system would be a huge advantage over any other handheld out there.
  15. Well no one ever said anything about which COD. You could probably port over COD mobile or older CODs easily.
  16. Usually yes, but we are talking about Activision here. Honestly it might be good to give COD a break, not that one of the most profitable game franchises of all time is going anywhere.
  17. There is a bigger scientific/philosophical issue here. While something like being able to learn spatial objects in a maze is easy to quantify (after all, we have been doing it for ages with rats), something subjective like being able to quantify that another entity can experience emotions is much harder to prove. In fact there are some philosophies that state that the only entity you can prove that has a consciousness/subjective experience is yourself (look up solipsism). Right now with how little we know about these topics it will be basically impossible to prove whether an AI has emotions. I mean we dont even know whether certain animals (such as insects) are capable of experiencing pain or not, much less more complex emotions. Hence it might be truly impossible to prove that an AI can feel emotions like a human. But you could argue that it's irrelevant, as long as the AI understands enough about human emotions to do its job effectively it is ultimately unnecessary to know what it feels. This is discussion about the far future though. The paper isn't anywhere near simulating a whole CA1 region of hippocampus, much less a whole hippocampus, or whole brain. No one. This model seems to be built from the ground up with 15 neurons to replicate circuits found in the hippocampus of everyone. Here is the entire circuit. It was simulated in a computer with python it seems.
  18. As a steam deck owner, I can say that the display resolution being too low is definitely not an issue in my experience. I would much rather have a product that keeps the same resolution and has a longer battery life as a result. I don't think going from 720p to 1080p or even 1440p is going to be such a big deal when the screen is very small and you are holding it at a reasonable distance
  19. Bing chat's best use seems to be towards comparing and contrasting different things. I found it to work well if you ask it how a piece of media relates to a social event, for example. "Why yes, the AI said I only owe 100 bucks in taxes this year officer"
  20. Fair enough, but the way it's set up, honestly I doubt they get much useful data at all. I mean you take quizzes that they make for points. It's also quite easy if you want to just search random garbage to get your points quota for the day. It seems more likely to me that they're using it as a way to serve ads to you and boost their own user count.
