Question for people who know about this: why do we have hundreds of root certificate authorities, when a vulnerability on a single one can break encryption?
Wouldn't it make more sense to have 5 or so that can be more closely monitored, so something like the eMudhra certificates would probably be found before the certificates are deployed?
I assumed all new breakthroughs in advanced complexity theory would be theoretical and non-constructive, as in "we prove that this algorithm must exist but we do not provide it".
I'm genuinely shook at today's results, specially at the fact that there _is_ a constructive algorithm.
Any strong enough model with weak enough safeguards can cause an AI Chernobyl event that will make people and governments against AI development and deployment, just like Chernobyl did for nuclear energy.
Removing AI watermarks is still easier than doing a school assignment.
The only way to prevent AI cheating is to make the assignments in class in pen and paper. To be honest, I don't understand why schools moved away from that in the first place.
Yes, and back in my school days we all did our tests on paper, except the two kids who had a slip of paper that allowed them to take a digital test instead. Helping people with disabilities doesn't require having everyone make their tests on a computer.
And taking away writing from people with bad handwriting (if not related to disability) is just about the worst thing to do if you want them to ever get better at it.
Idk, I’ve had bad handwriting my entire childhood and I still have bad handwriting now as an adult. I’ve (somewhat jokingly) announced that I am “illegible”. It isn’t a detriment to my day to day activities at all, because I can type sufficiently well
And now instead of teaching disabled students how to improve their handwriting to improve their lives regardless of their circumstances, we lowered the bar and made all students have bad handwriting.
I am talking about disabilities which affect things like motor control which means that they cannot improve their handwriting very much.
How does good handwriting improve people's live significantly? I know some people who prefer handwritten notes and I think there is research that says they can be more effective when learning, but most adults very rarely write more than a few lines by hand.
You could say the same of PE, maths, literature, or almost anything learned in school. Few adults need them in their lives, but they provide good habits and virtue to students. People who don't read and write anything outside social media are a loss to themselves and to society.
Disabilities don't disappear after school, and children who struggle with motor control in school will continue struggling with it on adulthood. Half the point of school is finding out your weaknesses and learning to overcome them in a safe and controlled environment.
Studying maths and literature should develop your mind in many ways and gives you a chance to enrich your life. I do not see how handwriting will do that.
Pushing someone with a disability to improve their handwriting will not cure their disability. How does making people struggle more help them? its like suggesting kids in wheelchairs should be made to try to walk.
> . Half the point of school is finding out your weaknesses and learning to overcome them
Learning to use a computer as a means to overcome a disability that makes handwriting painful or difficult or illegible sounds like it'd qualify as exactly that.

Seeing that the series aired on Apple TV+, it seems like Apple knows exactly what its employees are doing. Maybe they just turned what their employees want into a drama? hehe
