I think it's more than that. I made prediction in earlier 2024 that the main players of AI will stick with transformers while second class players will want to transcend it. The di…

Probably they wouldn't be. A lot of this is people catastrophizing. Probably already somewhat unhappy even before. Regarding spirituality i think it's more about math itself than m…

Something like the plan in the anime Jormungand maybe? ( https://jormungand.fandom.com/wiki/Jormungand )

This kind of thinking assumes quantitative changes never result in qualitative change. Which is demonstrably false. Obviously there are thresholds where phase transitions happen. T…

You tested it, i doubt you authored it. A paternal twin can have one with good impulse control and another who's more instinctual. Even in the same family and upbringing.

I'm reminded of a kid, and there is always such a kid, whose parents put them in front of everyone and asked them, 'what do you want to be when you grow up?'. And when they answere…

what's stopping someone to feed it to an llm and say 'make it simpler' and maybe run it twice.

Yeah mathematicians tend to do that. Physicists not so much I think. However, none of what he says about AI is such a strong prediction, unlike the 'crackpots' that are probably on…

Might not be solveable. At some point the effort in finding that someone might be larger than the benefit you get from just using the second, third, fourth best. Or using some flaw…

Dario is no John hammond though. That'd be altman. He actually has the discipline and background as an ai scientist to tell what the potential failure modes are. You're right, he m…

Pain without suffering vs suffering without pain. Now everyone have smartphones but dignity feels like it's getting lower.

Except in growth imperative system we have, to stop growing is not to not grow, it is to spiral into a cascade failure

Gives them the freedom to interpret it 'case by case' which is to mean punishing businesses and states not aligned with Trump with a million inconveniences, while leaving his base …

At one point you just have to look at a mirror and ask, what would impress you. Also why pay anyone, when they can keep up with all the papers that not one man can read them all? T…

You find it hard to believe...that Iliad was big? that 400 AD Egyptian medical practices involved quackeries?

Sure if the goal is entertainment and sports, you're right. However, unlike chess or counter strike it's downstream from a real needed utility. Like, is there a point to do it anym…

It's worth mentioning that swiss is a nation of 9 million, whereas Japan has 128 million people. I'm not sure how comparable it is. You probably don't need to pass through a lot of…

To put this more succintly I think, the mind loves learning something new. Something to do with new connections in the brain.

I'm sure. But can you explain more? Share that 16 years of knowledge, even a little bit?

For me the question is just, do you think it's a disorder or not. Would you take a medication for it, if there is such a thing. If yes to both, Then, it's not really you. You are j…

What's so surprising about it? Russia had been smashing their heads against the Ukraine wall for years now. Defending can be done very efficiently with modern weaponry. And Taiwan …

Judging from reason events, this is just another scourge he can (and will) use against democratic cities or entities
