Progress isn't inevitable because the government can stop it sometimes. Nuclear power is regulated to be forty times safer than natural gas (the safest natural gas) (the factor of forty is ignoring the additional…
This is the case today for ai chess engines
There are plenty of good scientists and engineers who do psychedelics. If what you say were true, I think at least one of them would have figured out what the sense data is caused by in the environment and have set up a…
Openai employees had extreme leverage because they were (or at least appeared, by the number of signatures on the letter) united. They could just leave for another company (Microsoft or other) where they would not be at…
You may be right, so I edited my comment.
The expansion of the universe is accelerating. At some point, the number of galaxies in the visible universe will stop growing and the light received from distant galaxies will grow more and more redshifted. However,…
A complication is that the employees who work in the nursing homes are likely to bring covid in if it is spreading in the community and the community is acting normally (eg parties are happening). Not to say that your…
A)11.36 million acres refers to the land leased for either fuel or non-fuel minerals. So if you wanted to compare the size of the royalties to the annual fees for the land, you would need to figure out what percentage…
The article the commenter linked is almost entirely about debit cards. The bank has to make money somehow to pay for things like fraud and auditing.
Well you need peer reviewed papers in highish impact journals to get tenure. For some people, the only way they're getting that is by cheating.
A) at the time this was written, Scott lived in the Midwest B) Scott worked at a hospital at the time, which selects a bit against those who are creationists. In my opinion, probably 40% of the nurses in such a hospital…
That's basic finance. Higher interest rates are about loaners (also known as savers) getting paid more, and borrowers paying that. If you are amassing wealth (rather than amassing debt), then you are a saver and can…
Altman doesn't have equity in OpenAI, so that's a bit of evidence that he believes ai could be valuable or important to him or humanity even without his gaining value in equity.
llm summary The article tells the story of how two former spies and enemies, Frederick Russell Burnham and Fritz Duquesne, joined forces to promote the idea of importing hippos from Africa to Louisiana in 1910. Their…
The large banks are more heavily regulated. Trump raised the limit at which a bank is called large from 50bil to 250bil. The small banks value their freedom from regulation more than they would value full FDIC coverage.…
It's unreasonable because the large majority of the research has shown it to be wrong, like mentioned in the article.
Stylized example of how the game works: Bet on every number but 0 on a roulette wheel Not 0: you and your investors make 3 billion this year 0: you and your investors lose your 20 billion you have invested, and the…
Jupiter has some moons that really do go the "wrong" way: the Carme, Ananke, and Pasiphae groups.
It proposes 100 sites over a 1200 square mile area. Each site would be at least 3 miles away from any other site. Energy generation, except nuclear, either uses a fair bit physical space or causes pollution, and doing…
Well the bank can't get your future earnings or other assets if you default, but they can get the house. So if the house is worth zero dollars (never true) then you are 5 to 1 leveraged.
I think this essay includes a specific prediction, that human level ai is far away, that might be disproved this decade. If human level ai is close, focusing on some other kind of ai is more likely to be a waste of time.
Even finance experts like Matt Levine use index funds. Unless you are mega rich and have connections, you almost certainly have no advantage against the many people who work 100 hours a week trying (and often failing)…
You're right and my above comment is wrong, but I still think the downside risk is bigger than the upside risk. It's ETH with 100% leverage, except beyond the risk of collapse of ETH there is also the risk of the…
Rai was initially released based on a value of 3.14 usd, it's down from that. Since usd has experienced inflation one would expect an unpegged stablecoin like rai to be worth more not less usd over time. Vitalik's…
