how far is the deep learning stack close to replacing them?

They were already “replaced” by the internet decades ago, but people keep calling. As the article explains, there are still people in the US without access to the internet or knowledge of how to use it, as well as a lot of people who just want to talk to a human being.

You can call 1-800-CHATGPT if you want, but there’s clearly still a place for this service.


By definition, it will never replace "them."

my favorite application of elliptic curves is this:

If you don't allow them to publish research work, your greatest talents will leave.

I used to work in such a restrictive environment. Nobody worth their salt stayed long.


This book is not for you.

Teaching others how to replicate solutions is very different from guiding people how to solve yet unsolved problems in the field.

This book is for the latter. For the former, you might want to look out for one in the "for dummies" series.

My guy I learned this material from a healthy mix of ESL and Casella Berger and Billingsley. I could still, to this day, probably do every proof in this book without reviewing the material. And yet, despite all that training, I still argue this book is not useful for absolutely anything except assigning homework problems and setting exams.


That's not strange. There are many people who can ace exams but are not competent in applying it in their workplace.


Lol I think you've lost the thread here.


money isn't a map. it's a form of risk/benefit management. and USD is managed very differently from RMB.

why introduce capitalism and communism? it's like trying to use religious texts to explain astrophysics. just use science...


he will have to look further ahead.


It's not just about the man on a bicycle, it's a man on a bicycle on a flat road.


the opposite of an egoistic programmer, is the anonymous one.

then how do you credit those who do produce results? Just put money into the anonymous one's bank account.


I think it means protection from intellectual property claims in the future.


I think the reason to make it replace/removable is to reduce e-waste at EOL. Lots of companies have policies on data storage on decomissioned computers to be physically destroyed, so making it replaceable allows the machines to be repurposed after.
