I love the idea of the comic villainy of someone who deliberately chooses to organize a team to find ways to circumvent Ozempic in order to keep their buyers unhealthy and addicted…

They said other things besides just filtering, like writing responses.

But then why would you need to buy it?

Isn't that just like taking a phone call? I'm not sure what you're trying to imply.

The article mentions youtube as a source of training data, but seems to only be talking about audio transcriptions (text). But, isn't youtube more useful for multimodal training on…

Centralizing and industrializing food production has its own famine hazards, like if a strong solar flare were to happen.

It's true that general-purpose robots have made little progress, compared to general-purpose AI, but the reasons for that might just be financial. AI has become a self-justifying b…

>but there is little progress in robotics. Replacing "somewhere" work is many years away. I agree there's little progress in robotics, relative to AI. But "many years away" might m…

> AI is not far superior at every job that exists today. I wasn't claiming that. I was responding to what you wrote: you quoted the part of my comment that said "[An AI that is abl…

It is an assumption, but hypothetically, can you give examples of something that such an AI won't be able to do, assuming that it's already far superior to you at every job that ex…

What types of jobs do you think humans will remain superior at forever? Or are you only commenting on the short-term improbability of humans becoming generally outcompeted?

Because there were other jobs, since there were still jobs that humans could do better or cheaper than machines could. An AI that is able to replace humans at every currently exist…

I agree in the short-term the argument that AI puts people out of work isn't very strong and would also have told us to not invent word processors like you say. But some people env…

>but on real world maps, there are enclaves - little islands that belong to a country that they have not connection to. And if those shall have the same color as their parent count…

I actually don't understand why it's significantly better for the landfill to be arranged in one way rather than another. Can you explain why it helps future generations?

How about a paper tape writer/puncher? Anyone made one of those?

Weren't there something like 5 glacial maxima in the past 200 thousand years? I had the impression they were more regularly occurring than "hundreds of thouands of years apart".

> The changing climate killed more, but the humans were the differentiating factor, so which one do you point the finger at? If we're the differentiating factor, I'd have to blame …

It seems to cut both ways. If words are powerful, restricting words is also powerful. It's not clear why this leads to a pro-censorship stance, any more than to an anti-censorship …

Well, if we're taking the stories at face value, Socrates knew what he was getting himself into when he chose to die, even when he could have easily escaped. He died to prove a poi…

> A huge amount of what I suffer with is not physical pain. It's not just physical suffering that she's supposedly immune to. She's also immune to all psychological suffering as we…

>AGI would have to suffer to become general enough to warrant the use of the word general. Jo Cameron doesn't have general intelligence? This seems absurd. Intelligence is orthogon…

I tend to admire that Socrates used arguments in the process of that, unlike both of us right now.

> But more saliently, I think it's absurd to think our brains, or brains in general, do polynomial curve fitting in any meaningful sense. Why would an AI need to use the same mecha…
