AI is not magic, and still constrained by math. If you need 3 variables and only have 2, AI isn't going to do it.


Unless we're talking about different things - it already exists. There's two parts to it - estimating a depth map ("monocular depth estimation") and inpainting the occluded parts.


Yep, they implement kernel level security, rather than obsessing over language.

This is where taking a more holistic approach to curriculum planning would pay off. If the weeks after you were taught these (or any other) concepts in math class they start showing up in your science and geography classes, you'd probably remember them better and have a better understanding of how to use them.


I agree with the general idea of math and science. However the fields you mentioned are mostly useful for formalizing computer languages. If you want more concepts to use in actual programs, I think there are more practical areas to look in.


The real fundamentals are graphs, trees, stacks, recursion, dp, etc. in other words, computer science.

If someone understands trees they can understand html in one sentence.

Enemy centered mindset. You both lose, but he doesn't know you exist.


I feel a lot of my faith in public health scientists was also burned.


I also lost faith in certain scientists (and many more politicians) during the pandemic. But be wary of generalising about a such a large and interdisciplinary group of people. Voices amplified by the media (indeed like Robert Malone on Rogan's podcast) often grossly misrepresent scientific consensus.


Being better than your peers always brings a warm feeling.


They must work at Google


Clicked in your first source. That “7 trillion” is a global number and already includes the writers speculations on the value of those other things
