Gemini works amazingly well, and is better suited for most use cases. When most people speak of it negatively (especially here), it's just with the task of coding, which is a small…

We'll adapt. So far, it seems like every technological increase has demanded more cognitive ability, not less. Sure, we may not need 100 people who are experts at shoveling, but th…

But they require large support systems (typically rich parents) to work for "free". Scholarships mean they're not free.

That's fine by me. I certainly won't be making any major discoveries on my own (not on this current life trajectory anyway), but am very grateful that other people have.

Because the website is neither a hard problem nor is their work going to be anything remotely close to just prompting current LLMs.

> landing on their site and and seeing that beige colour and blurred-backdrop navbar, I immediately moved to close the tab Don't judge a book by its cover? Sounds like you're just …

Perhaps this is the fundamental problem that can be solved with AI. As a non-scientist, I'd very much prefer to have massive amounts of scientific breakthroughs instead of massive …

But they're all highly unsubstantial, sounds like hit-piece lazy journalism. Almost all are just that Jeff was in a leadership role and part of committees that had things under the…

I don't see this group needing funding, in fact I doubt you could get a meeting to try to invest unless you're a personal friend.

These are all top-class engineers entering retirement age and none of them are hurting for money. This seems like Don Knuth working on finishing his books, or Tim Berners-Lee worki…

And Zerox, though they didn't know how economically valuable it was.

What if the grants process were AI's on your side understanding what you want to do talking to the AI of the funding source, and they could provide immediate and direct feedback on…

If you just got some agents to handle scheduling meetings, finding out which permits to get and applying for them, and finding capable sub-contractors, you'd save half the time.

Here's a list of accomplishments: https://github.com/LRitzdorf/TheJeffDeanFacts

People might be willing to give their known-to-be-finite lives in pursuit of the Greater Good, but the equation changes greatly when you're giving up an eternity for the chance of …

It's not that simple, trees contribute to global warming. Norway has had problems with the increased tree growth as snow melts.

Not really, even the best systems have like a 10yr break-even period. And I live in a place with some of the highest residential electricity rates in the continental United States.…

You just want all your little worker bees to be in massive towers like Hong Kong, without a chance to even grow their own vegetables or have any private space?

We do have that, now that Tesla has been abandoned by the Left and pretty much all of the big Oil and Gas companies have heavily invested in solar and wind. Ironically, it's the un…

Yeah, Orange County. They don't try to compete on price though, just quality and speed.

That's just not true at all? Might as well just post that you like communism, you barely even tried to cater your post to the thread.

Oh yes let me just change my business model from being a solo dev to a thousand employee+ business in a completely different industry that just happens to have a companion app with…

You should see how optimal the poster's first dates are! Meet at a location with premade bottles of Soylent while they ask 15 questions. Done in 30min. Optimized away the cost and …

Does it though? It certainly seems like that's what openai wants, but even with a tiny grain of salt this just looks ugly to me. Also trying to make the texts look like imessages e…

Human discovers other people are willing to abuse system out of pettiness or ignorance, for small feeling of power. Especially when nothing disincentivizes them.
