About argentinian

I live in Argentina and I don't like the effects of inflation nor its causes.

    If every side effect of the redistribution measures is taken into account, or if only policies that were tested and proven to work well are applied. I think then that they could ha…

    I'm not against redistributing wealth. I'm sure that it is going to be obligatory with the jump off productivity that IA would allow, and I believe that some redistribution strateg…

    It's not trivially falsifiable, is a fact.

    No, if demand is 0 you wouldn't have a reason to run that.

    Consider human history. You will be able to see that the greatest acts of good and evil were not done by the ultra rich.

    If as you say, corruption requires inequality, and there are inequalities that cannot be leveled, like strength and intelligence, and power, then monetary equality won't stop corru…

    Look at Ghandi. He was not a millionaire and did a lot of good. In the same way there are poor persons who cause a lot of suffering to others without being rich. As the number of p…

    There will be less creators that earn a living by creating. But I believe there will be more art. E.g. after Michelangelo created his style, then IA can mimick it almost for free. …

    A super AI that could exist in the future won't "destroy your writing voice"?

    With IA, creation is cheap. It's inevitable that automation would make some jobs disappear. There's no solution, less people will be able to earn a living for creating art, I think…

    What's wrong with that? There's the low quality slop for the people who desire it, and then there's the high quality literature that's appreciated by people with good taste, and th…

    You are ultimately stating that there's something unique about human minds that cannot be replicated by machines. It may be so, or not.

    you are not taking into account that creators can be funded in different ways. For example like in Patreon. You can give part of your money to fund a creator that wants to create i…

    What does matter? That's completely subjective. If the intent of the author matters to you, then, to you, it does. There's not an abstract "not mattering of the intent of the autho…

    As you say, that already occurs with human made commercial crap literature. A person directing an IA could also lead it to build a story that teaches values.

    Completely agree with Borges in that. When the author is an AI, there's no human author, the result is a mix of what information it was feed, how its algorithms work, and what does…

    I would argue that a story can mainly provide a connection with your own subjectivity. If it moves something in you, that's what mainly matters. If your goal by reading is too lear…
