I have two USA Blurs. They're great knives, depending on your application. The Blur was my gateway to Zero Tolerance knives.

Maybe a little of a tangent, but I'm curious about your thoughts on neck stability. When I was considering a Kiesel 7, the biggest selling point was the reinforced necks. I'm in a region where humidity can range from 39% - 62% within a day during some months. I'm constantly running a...

Which is important, especially if we're inching closer towards the technogical singularity hypothesis. https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262527804/the-technological-singularity/

Sundar Pichai has already issued a response. Google is working to correct the issues. We'll have to wait and see how it plays out. The start of the memo: "I want to address the recent issues with problematic text and image responses in the Gemini app (formerly Bard). I know that some of its...

Man, the nostalgia of those old Schecters. It seemed like most local bands in my area that played those old school Schecters at the time fit into a genre I called Ed Hardy rock - Ed Hardy or Tapout t-shirt, bedazzled button down back pants pockets, blowout Jersey Shore hair, at least one...

Nice! How long was the wait? I'm almost a month in for the 6-9 month stated period for an 070r.

Supposedly it didn't ship like that. I received pics before shipment. But yeah, who knows?

My only bad experience with ebony fretboard is with a Schecter KM-7 MK-III Artist L that I just returned not too long ago. Not sure if it was the ebony responding to changes in climate or damage during shipment due to the ill-fitting case. Never had a problem, otherwise.

I feel like I want... no, need to see this band.

Nice. I just watched the factory tour vid. Seems very similar to Aristides, with Ruffaine instead of Arium. Maybe we'll get a comparison video as the company matures and more people get their hands on these guitars. That 7 trans purple on their site looks great. I can't tell if that's...

That sounds like Aftermaths to me. They're shrill and a bit abrasive sounding. Like I said, took me a bit of time to get the right pickup height and to dial in my settings. Mine aren't quite as bright now, but they were very shrill when I first got the guitar. I also play that particular...

Okay, I see your point on a few items mentioned. I linked and quoted a few excerpts from Google on their methodology and how they defined bias. There's a lot of information embedded here: https://blog.google/technology/ai/google-gemini-ai/#sundar-note This information plus the Managing...

I'm also part of a marginalized minority group on my mother's side. My position simply put: current state vs target state. It's evident that Gemini was a disaster because it alienated a diverse group of people in its current state, in its team's quest for diversity. My position is that...

This? If so, I found it and will read it. Thanks On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots: Can Language Models Be Too Big?

I honestly don't know. I'm going to research it though. So far, I see that Google partners with AI2, Paul Allen's company. https://allenai.org/scientific-advisory-board

Dial it back. You're projecting what you want me to be. You conveniently left out an Asian representation of Harriet Tubman, which is also historically inaccurate. Do you live in a region where everyone is racist? If so, move. I don't experience that in my life. If I did, I'd call it out...

First, it's not a press release, it's a detailed report that shares links to their methodology. Second, who are these AI ethicists that are the arbiters of the universal definition of biases? Do you know who they are? How they're funded? How diverse they are in worldviews? What's their EQ...

Google states their approach is unique and different and points to their infrastructure's and overall build's unique attributes. They also defined their definition of bias. So did Gemini arrive at its own conclusion of what constitutes bias, or did the team that (in their own words) rigorously...

Quote from Google, on their blog: "We designed Gemini to be natively multimodal, pre-trained from the start on different modalities. Then we fine-tuned it with additional multimodal data to further refine its effectiveness. This helps Gemini seamlessly understand and reason about all kinds of...

Google built the infrastructure, logic, parameters and defined initial behavior. It's on their blog: "We've been rigorously testing our Gemini models and evaluating their performance on a wide variety of tasks. From natural image, audio and video understanding to mathematical reasoning, Gemini...
