One of the two cameras is the ultra-wide camera so it gets some additional parallax and visual information than just the separation to the other camera.
That’s not how parallax works. The wider field of view of the ultra wide camera will show some of the scene that the other camera doesn’t see, but over overlapping parts of the scene the parallax is a strict function of the location of the two lenses’ entrance windows.
>Last week the world's largest container line, AP Moller-Maersk, announced it would add an emergency risk surcharge of $50 per 20-foot container and $100 per 40- and 45-foot container to all new shipments to Israel
Every container becoming $50-$100 more expensive is extremely disruptive for any economy. Will Israel attempt to blockade ships going to Yemen in retaliation?
The chattering classes love counter-cultural packaging. That is why they embraced Greta Thunberg much more than they embraced Al Gore despite the messaging being the same.
The ECHELON report revelations were packaged into a formal (boring) European Parliament report. Meanwhile Edward Snowden had the counter-cultural packaging of a cool dissident hacker.
>I think there will be open source models at GPT-4 level that can run on consumer GPUs within a year or two.
There is indeed already open source models rivaling ChatGPT-3.5 but GPT-4 is an order of magnitude better.
The sentiment that GPT-4 is going to be surpassed by open source models soon is something I only notice on HN. Makes me suspect people here haven't really tried the actual GPT-4 but instead the various scammy services like Bing that claim they are using GPT-4 under the hood when they are clearly not.
You're 100% right and I apologize that you're getting downvoted, in solidarity I will eat downvotes with you.
HNs funny right now because LLMs are all over the front page constantly, but there's a lot of HN "I am an expert because I read comments sections" type behavior. So many not even wrong comments that start from "I know LLaMa is local and C++ is a programming language and I know LLaMa.cpp is on GitHub and software improves and I've heard of Mistral."
Students are being wrongly accused of cheating by "AI detection tools". In the Israel/Palestine conflict both sides have used "AI detection tools" to accuse the other side of using AI generated content.
Seems like fear mongering, hysteria, and scammy "AI detection tools" are causing more problems and trouble than actual AI.
Today most (by volume) Linux attacks are against IoT devices that run Linux and SSH with weak/no auth.
Behind that are attacks on Linux web servers where exploits in the web application (e.g. WordPress) or the web framework (e.g. Rails) are the attack vector.
Since 2008 big US tech companies have been a runaway GDP doubling success. It is laughable to compare them with VK and WeChat.
The reason we Europeans should aim to have our own big tech companies is because we are currently missing out on the greatest wealth generation in history.
> because we are currently missing out on the greatest wealth generation in history.
You mean losing billions dollars a year, for years, with no plan of becoming profitable? That's what most of "successful startups" are in the US. It's wealth redistribution for a lucky few, and gig economy for everyone else.
That (taken out of context quote) was true during the Cold War because of the cynical realpolitik that Kissinger himself was a proponent of. For example he was against the US supporting Israel in the 1973 Yom Kippur war. That would likely have led to Israel being wiped out but not before launching nuclear missiles at Arab states and the Eastern European Soviet/Warsaw pact states that were supporting and arming the Arab states. Knowing Kissinger that was most likely his goal; lose Israel but turn every major industrial center in the Soviet Union and Warsaw pact into nuclear wasteland.
