To train the MineDojo framework to play Minecraft, researchers fed it 730,000 Minecraft YouTube videos (with more than 2.2 billion words transcribed), 7,000 scraped webpages from the Minecraft wiki, and 340,000 Reddit posts and 6.6 million Reddit comments describing Minecraft gameplay.
From this data, the researchers created a custom transformer model called MineCLIP that associates video clips with specific in-game Minecraft activities. As a result, someone can tell a MineDojo agent what to do in the game using high-level natural language, such as "find a desert pyramid" or "build a nether portal and enter it," and MineDojo will execute the series of steps necessary to make it happen in the game.
Once they teach it to scream like a sperg at viewers, organic Twitch streamers will be over.

This is a battle for the future of civilization. If free speech is lost even in America, tyranny is all that lies ahead.

If anyone can fight Apple with an actual chance of winning, it's @elonmusk. He needs allies, though. Who will stand with him?

I stand with neither.

Apple disallowed almost anything related to Covid, especially vaccines or human origins of the virus.

We had to build a list of over 20 terms to not show results for, only on Apple devices.
Apple also later rejected us because users included Pepe images in videos. pic.twitter.com/euw1ppkoKg

You can say all day long you don't look at customer data, but in my experience you end up seeing some of it anyways, completely unintentionally even. It's called thumbnail images.
You go to backup a customer's data, and the operating system itself generates thumbnails, which are miniature images of the files you're looking to back up for the customer.
So what do you do when you see 117 thumbnail images of barely dressed young girls when your customer is a grade school teacher?
Our company had to have that very exact discussion, with the boss even, but WHILE the backup was in process, the customer called back in basically saying they changed their mind and declined the data backup.
That was about the most F'ed up day I ever worked in tech, because due to our own privacy policies, we had to basically ignore the fact we saw the inappropriate thumbnails we saw.
I was disgusted with the whole situation, but there wasn't anything we could do anyways. The images weren't nude, but they weren't far from it either.
We had to dismiss this obvious pervert because we weren't supposed to see the files in the first place. Thank you automatic thumbnails for messing our heads up.

Author here. This site lets you put in a username and get the users with the most similar writing style to that user. It confirmed several users who I suspected were alts and after informally asking around has identified abandoned accounts of people I know from many years ago. I made this site mostly to show how easy this is and how it can erode online privacy. If some guy with a little bit of Python, and $8 to rent a decent dedicated server for a day can make this, imagine what a company with millions of dollars and a couple dozen PhD linguists could do.
Here's Paul Graham:
How can I avoid being identified by stylometry?
You may be wondering what you can do to avoid having your writing style be used to profile you. This site works primarily by analyzing for each user the frequencies of the most common words and phrases in the English language. Accordingly, the easiest way to avoid being identified is to simply use different words than you ordinarily would when writing. More sophisticated models than the one I made can use punctuation, comma usage, and capitalization to identify you so try alternating those as well. Services like Quillbot can help with you this but depending on your circmstances you may not want to send your writings to a third party service.
Also, most authorship identification algorithms have poor accuracy when working with small amounts of words. This means the optimal strategy would be discarding an account either after every comment or after a small number of comments. Unfortunately, this is against HN rules and may result in a ban.
