how is EU supposed to open hormuz? do you expect them to raise armies and go to war over a shipping lane? I think US demonstrated plenty enough this is not a viable strategy (this …

don't be so naive. if the billionaires want this, it can't be good for you. it really is that simple

the admin cuts funding by 40% ~ cutting something by 40% is bad for it ~ burning something down is an euphemism for acting on something in a way that's bad for it. what are you not…

whatever the current admin is doing classifies as burning it. if not all the way down, then halfway down

musk's goal = grift himself into the four comma club

burning it all down is not the way to go though

“how do we make the researchers accountable for actually getting something done?” do we even need this? i think accepting that some will produce nothing useful is just cost of doin…

I mean maybe not right now, but in 100-1000 years a complicated enough "nanobot/virus" could possibly be made to target a single person

you can't continue shipping code the same way pre-LLM vs post-LLM and expecting a huge speed gain. the trick is abandoning the old models and bottlenecks and embracing the new poss…

the entire US economy rides on AI. no ruling throwing a wrench into the multi trillion engine is ever going to be permitted to happen

all this techno surveillance should just be straight out banned by law. the little extra security it might offer is not worth the huge costs in privacy and other unforeseen impacts…

people that get their music from AA would never buy it or pay spotify for it, so the "loss" is completely imaginary. same goes for movies, videogames etc

that's kind of optimistic. for example a misaligned super AI might engineer a virus that wipes out most of the 7 billion humans. that would put a damper on the adaptability of the …

feels somewhat dystopian, no? the big brother is watching everywhere you go. no way this can go tits up

tesla is not competitive vs chinese. they can remain afloat wherever the chinese are not allowed to sell, that's about it

well yeah. the pentagon wastes 1 trilly per year. a lot of stuff can be paid for with that kind of money.
