    Because, like 98% of people in this space, you don't mention or even consider cost. Improving the lower bound of Riemann is impressive, but how impressive would it remain if it was…

    I wouldn't be surprised if half these proofs turn out to be well crafted hallucinations, barring of course the ones actually verified in Lean

    Yet a significant percentage of people simultaneously believe it "reasoned" its way to novel mathematical proofs. Something doesn't jive

    Our very strong and very domestic stupidiy, naivete, and ignorance is way more important of a factor than foreign influence.

    LLMs are going to do none of this, so there's really no worry

    The cope about this "not being new" is pretty typical denial I'm glad to have left up there.

    There hasn't been one dollar of profit from any company, it's more a battle of how low you can keep your losses

    This seems to be a slow discovering of the inherent limitations.

    I thought bitcoin was cool for about 6 months back in 2014, and read everything I could about it. For the life of me I simply can't understand how people are still so interested in…

    Amazing to see a lot of the comments stating the exact qualifiers he laid out as potential counterarguments to his writeup. Did they even read it?

    I mean you're half right. Companies seek to automate some of their transactional labor and reduce their overall head count, but they also want a pool of low paid labor to rotate wh…

    The issue with framing this as a resurrection of the productivity paradox is that AI had never even theoretically increased productivity. I think in retrospect it's going to look v…

    Who would have thought the median American life, something havily satirized and made fun of in The Simpsons, would become what people most long for. That, more than anything else I…

    Well said. In music, it's very similar. The jarring, often out of key tones are the ones that are the most memorable, the signatures that give a musical piece its uniqueness and so…

    I think you're really overstating things here. Entry level positions are the tier at which replacement of senior positions happen. They don't do a lot, sure, but they are cheap and…
