My own initial comment literally addressed the uncertainty. Here: > You can argue about whether the obsolescence is real or not, but if it is [emphasis in source], the plight of th…

Do you think IT is the only field threatened by AI? Must not spend much time talking to people in other fields.

What is?

the wise man bowed his head solemnly and spoke: "theres actually zero reason to think about events that haven't happened yet. you imbecile. you fucking moron"

Is someone arguing otherwise?

Not really. It's like giving a gun to someone with the job of "keep people safe." Totally coherent, but actually proliferates the dangerous technology.

Addressed a whole day ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49209919 I implore you to think a little bit about what degree of political, policy, and economic stability is actua…

And then what? Suddenly everyone gets paid for doing nothing of added value? We ban AI and similar ultra-high leverage technologies?

Surprised no one has made the extremely obvious observation that it took literal centuries for printing technology to eliminate the trade of printers, which could not have possibly…

Your argument is just linking to credible sources that make the opposite argument as you, and then stating "I disagree" afterwards?

Assuming that it's surprisingly little and without pollution concerns, then an acceptable and enforceable policy should be a very simple request, no?

It's almost certainly just that Trump is a fundamentally fragile, insecure man. He has proven over and over that he will happily fellate (proverbially speaking) any man who says ni…

Not sure how that's relevant to the topic here. Your initial comment seemed to imply that these actions are the rational downstream consequences of the US's incentives. Now you see…

"We" is referring to the US federal government, elected by the US population, and which has (and is using) massive levers to kneecap development of renewable energy sources. Some i…

You are commenting on an article in which the US is deciding (and paying immense costs) in order not to do everything. The current administration is actively trying to squash sever…

Someone who is "rich" in a consumable asset and therefore chooses to just consume that instead of investing in a renewable or compounding asset is colloquially known as "a dumbass.…

But... you're commenting on an article in which we are stopping the "we are building" part?

The goal is not to "gain better control" over the earth's temperature, it's to stop actively throwing the temperature out of control. Worth scrolling through this if you have been …

That's not how LLMs work

The federal government has tons of power but I'm like 99% sure the process for exercising it isn't "send a note to the courts saying this illegal stuff is actually super important …

Because that's what efficient pricing regimes do.

Why would I, or anyone else, ask questions of someone who authoritatively makes claims like "combined arms is when multiple branches work together" lol It's clear you're quite emot…

Clearly that tickled a nerve for some reason. Here's a question: When someone says that you have no experience being a professional baseball player, do you say "errrhhmm ackshually…
