Do you ask that question on every Open Source / Open Hardware project you encounter?

Touchscreens didn't make physical controls lose their value. Their widespread use is just a result of a tradeoff for many product designers, where a satisfying experience just didn't outweigh the dominating factors.

Some car manufacturers are in fact reintroducing physical user control elements. After reevaluating the tradeoff decision so it seems.

It's really a fascinating book and topic. And i too enjoy appreciating it. I guess it's appreciating the beauty of nature and as you said, AI will not be able to threaten that.

It's based on centuries old applied math.

I would say what he means is the web. LLMs can be used as another interface to the internet. Additionally the web gets polluted by slop.

Oh wow thanks, you might have saved me a lot of time and anger.

Cool, nice name also!

> It moves, show "emotions", comments when someone enter the room, uses the camera to see who entered the room and comment on that, make comments when my 3D printer finishes, things like that.

So basically you're using it as an AI mother in law, nice.

What would be so bad about relying on ROS in any way?

Sounds interesting, could you elaborate on what you do with?

Godverdomme

Very cool idea and my evolution to a scorpio was fun and educational.

I actively do it in a way, where i steer and understand the important bits. Because otherwise the cognitive and technical debt would annoy me to a point, where i would want to do software at all.

Took me a few minutes to realise it's not a domain name search engine.

Of course, you're right. I didn't intend to criticise him.

I just think that it's not a good idea to transfer this megatrend to healthcare.

Yes, those systems can be highly accurate, but as we all have experienced, this is not a stable or consistent property. A very good model can give you an ingenious answer one minute and an utterly dumb one the next. My guess is that it's simply a consequence of the extremely high complexity of the 'plant' (natural language, language interfacing with the real world), leading to some highly non linear behaviour.
