The barrier to change is not just regulation. Regulation is downstream of public opinion. Compare China and the US. In China, public sentiment around AI seems to be a hunger to use…

we're at the stage of the cycle where we know things are wrong but we don't care enough to do anything about them. unfortunately, it might not be until we live through the conseque…

No one could ever predict anything and we're all going to die.

This article would be more convincing if it focused on debunking the conspiracy instead of spending all but one hand wavy paragraph presenting a new conspiracy. The single debunkin…

Surprised how negative most of the comments are. A lot of nonprofits could benefit from someone helping them implement AI and most are 1) competent enough to ensure the fellow hand…

Haha yeah, we're in "who knows" territory. It could just be a foundational truth that all life has an innate unconscious will to survive. However, it makes more sense to me that co…

How would you determine “an optimal course of action” without consciousness? Eg we optimize for survival but without the ability to experience things, why survive? Why would that i…

I'd argue we don't even know what "intelligence" or "self-awareness" mean. Humans are conscious which means we experience things, then we develop preferences for certain experience…

For larger operations wouldn’t it be most effective to mix laundered money with legitimate earnings? If so that would make OF the top choice.

Somewhat unrelated but I won’t be surprised if we eventually find out a lot of OnlyFans revenue is money laundering.

It sucks to feel lonely. You could try a meditation retreat. I found it helpful to sit with loneliness before trying to solve it.

Someone once told me that boredom is often repressed anger. Got me thinking.

Thanks, Greg! We really appreciated all your help. Been too long.

I’m a fan of DAFs and agree they are underutilized. Getting ppl to donate stock might be hard but I’ll chat with Mackinnon, Watsi’s ED, about it and let you know if we have any que…

That’s a very long time - thank you both!

The old Teespring office, those were the days!

Love the idea and have long wanted something like this to exist. One other twist is you could let ppl vote on where to donate the profits.

Thank you so much!

That's incredible. Monthly donors are Watsi's lifeblood - it is so impactful to be able to bet on receiving a certain amount each month - thank you!
