AI Thread Summary

RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a technology used to improve data redundancy and performance in storage systems. The necessity of RAID depends on specific use cases, such as the need for data protection or increased read/write speeds. For hardware, a RAID controller is essential, and options include dedicated RAID cards or onboard RAID capabilities. A common recommendation is to use a setup with eight drives in a RAID configuration, supplemented by two additional drives on an onboard RAID array. This configuration balances performance and redundancy without requiring excessive speed, which is often unnecessary for traditional hard drives.

Thread 'Is AI hype?'

In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?"

Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...

Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
