Weird headline for the article because nowhere in the interview does he mention anything about how to burst the bubble or anything akin to "strike at its roots." Either it was taken from an earlier draft and they edited out the mention of it or they just made up a clickbait headline.

Looks a lot like fraudulent research, which is absolutely shameful for Microsoft. But who is surprised, what with their current direction.

Microsoft insisted its work is sound and in early June 2026 announced Majorana 2, a "next-generation topological quantum chip" it developed with the help of its own agentic AI.

Reading the rebuttal, it sounds like their entire paper was a hallucination.

Can you explain how you came to that conclusion? I don't know what game it was and how many copies it sold, nor how many Codex users there are, but I assume you already know those details?

More of the same, then.

If they're going to make these cars that grow longer every year, are they also going to build garages that get longer too? In my day, cars stayed the same length for the whole time you owned them. I suppose it's good for parents that have growing teenagers and need more leg room in the back.

When will someone be facing criminal charges for this?

Ironically, this article is slop.

By the same logic, you could prove that we are not sentient.

Engineers need to stop trying to do the job of philosophers. LLMs are not sentient, but that tells us nothing about what gives rise to sentience or whether silicon is a substrate that could host a sentient consciousness.

Whenever you see the words "social media ban" you need to substitute them for "mandatory ID checks for adults to use the internet," because that's the only solution they have to enforce the ban for children.

We don't want to provide our IDs so that we can be associated in perpetuity with every brain fart that we post to MySpace or whatever people are using these days.

Online pseudonymity is important for a functioning democracy. When people fear consequences for expressing their political opinions, this leads to the chilling effect.

The ban is not about children, it's about everyone, and it's about our freedom to speak freely online.

The best time to turn off Bluetooth was 15 years ago. The second best time is now.

"Septic" is not spelt "sceptic" in any variant of English.

I had to read that headline three times. Some quotation marks would help:

"Lurk for a while before posting," has been a standard rule of netiquette for at least the 30 years that I've been using the 'net.

It sounds simple when you're not a mathematician or cryptographer, but the academic study of these systems reveals that it's probably intractable:

An average human? No. A lemmy.world user? Yes.

You’re repeating what I said while saying that I’m wrong which suggests you misunderstood the comment chain.

Imagine telling a 1981 programmer who was fitting an entire chess engine into 1KB RAM that 40 years in the future every application will ship with its own 250MB operating system to run in a container orchestrator which is running in a virtual machine.

At least we did something useful with Moore’s Law.
