I'd guess making this a national pride thing will just make it less diverse. Answer would be training models on broader sources, not more nationalistic models.

This was an inevitable step for a surveillance state. Technology will consolidate the position of the leaders while making organised resistance impossible. Bummer.

What's to explain? Seeing gay porn doesn't increase the number of gay people but can let gay people feel less abnormal. If cause equaled normalisation they would be synonymous.

Only because no one is presenting both options to the public as a choice - cheap gas but you'll screw up dozens of countries and create insecurity for your kids. They would be less…

24 hours and no zionists complaining about how this is not tech news/flagging the post. Thank you, I guess, for allowing the rest of us to talk about whatever we want.

So true. I think everyone should remember exactly that anytime a MAGA tribesman uses the language of reason and compassion to gain an air of respectability. They have no concern fo…

Not when you're claming the moral high ground and all you have is guesswork.

It's not about what should be the case. It IS the case. If we should decide to change that it won't work if one government unilaterally decides who stays or who goes for obvious re…

No Interpol or ICC warrant, no answer to sovereignty or jurisdictional issues, no justified claim of extraterritoriality. Can't we call a kidnapping what it is?

"That interference has overwhelmingly turned out well." What an absurd thing to say. The US doesn't only overthrow dictatorships - it supports them too, as it suits its self-intere…

"I don't need to care about privacy because I have nothing to hide." One counter is "since I've done nothing wrong, you have not need to care about what I hide". Both make assumpti…

So resistance is futile?

Ah yes, the gateway drug straw man. Poster didn't say it causes that consequence, just that it normalises it. Just like video games normalise violence, gay porn normalises being ga…

Some harsh comments here. The idea is interesting and the miniaturisation impressive. Successful or not, it's good to see these ideas realised.

Why is this flagged now? It's been 15 minutes. Is this a Hasbara thing again?

So donate to unsexy causes instead. What's that got to do with EA?

It just doesn't. It's about how to make the most from altruism. It's got nothing to do with predictions. If you make enough to pay some people to work in a soup kitchen, don't quit…

What reasons do you have to assume EA = SBF?

If you can afford to hire 10 people to do it then they'll probably be able to do more good than just you. That sounds like a more efficient allocation of effort and resources.

The origins of EA were never in question, nothing new there. It was Peter Singer's work on maximising value for charitable outcomes. Comment section seems to be about something els…

But if it's a net positive, the point is made.

I think it's a case of judging a band by its fans. Enough dodgy billionaires have jumped on to create a poor image. Singer never said donating buys you a license to be evil.

Yes! Commenters seem to have jumper onto The Guardian's vibes about it rather than Singer's entirely reasonable logic.
