Abstract of a paper on NBER: This paper documents video consumption among school-aged children in the U.S. and explores its impact on human capital development. Video watching is common across all segments of society, yet surprisingly little is known about its developmental consequences. With a bunching identification strategy, we find that an additional hour of daily video consumption has a negative impact on children's noncognitive skills, with harmful effects on both internalizing behaviors (e.g., depres

Посмотрела Туториал NeurIPS «The Art of Benchmarking» — панель с авторами SWE-bench, GPQA и ведущими исследователями из Google DeepMind, NYU и Berkeley. Вот мой конспект. Делюсь с вами, так как бенчмарки теперь не только про науку, но и про безопасность, регуляторику и миллиардные решения о деплое.* Тирания метрикОказывается, любая метрика имеет honey spots, которые модель может хакнуть. Проблема в том, что текущая мета-оценка (корреляция Пирсона) эти точки не показывает. А... Read more ›

Я полгода в одиночку пилю VantageDNS, privacy-focused recursive DNS с фильтрацией. Аналог NextDNS, юрисдикция EU. Ниже честный построчный разбор того, во что мне на самом деле обходится сеть из 8 нод по миру и контрол-плейн. Не маркетинговое «около ста евро», а реальная цифра, которая каждый месяц списывается с карты: €46.27.В конце таблица расходов и прикидка, сколько платных юзеров надо, чтобы это перестало быть хобби.

В заметной части ИТ-сообщества до сих пор отмахиваются от AI-ассистентов: ругают за галлюцинации, смеются над «вайб-кодингом» и превозносят биологический мозг. Или это мне так кажется.Я не сторонник вайб-кодинга и долгое время игнорировал существование агентов, но моё отрицание прогресса стало обходиться мне слишком дорого. И я шагнул на съедение страшным симуляторам программиста на подложке.Внутри - рассуждение о том, почему главное место в современной дискуссии занимают не ИИ-агенты, а мы и наше... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: Fictional portrayals of artificial intelligence can have a real effect on AI models, according to Anthropic. Last year, the company said that during pre-release tests involving a fictional company, Claude Opus 4 would often try to blackmail engineers to avoid being replaced by another system. Anthropic later published research suggesting that models from other companies had similar issues with "agentic misalignment." Apparently... Read more ›

cURL creator Daniel Stenberg says Anthropic's hyped Mythos bug-hunting model found only one confirmed low-severity vulnerability in cURL, plus a few non-security bugs, after he expected a much longer list. He argues Mythos may be useful, but not meaningfully beyond other modern AI code-analysis tools. "My personal conclusion can however not end up with anything else than that the big hype around this model so far was primarily marketing," Stenberg... Read more ›

CUDA technically stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture, but much like laser or scuba, no... Read more ›
