I'm not convinced by your argument that LLMs are non-deterministic. Just because we can't currently predict their result doesn't mean it's not predictable. As a determinist, i'm convinced we can predict (like everything…
The difference is that launching a nuclear holocaust button is a guarantee... of a holocaust. With AI it's a coin flip (we can debate on the probabilities) between utopia or holocaust. And also most people can imagine a…
It's not you. This is the result of a simple equation: The more time you spend on an online website/app the more ads they can show you. And with that, the more info they make from you, the more relevant the ads become,…
Network issue. If we could replace all meatbag CEOs by AI CEOs, then this wouldn't be an issue. Communication and deal making would be vastly faster and more efficient.
Caveman summary. We evolved for: - Bad guy with stick - Immediate danger - Things that make caveman angry - Sudden changes Climate change is: - No bad guy (no bad man to protect from) - No immediate danger (no tiger…
But in 50 years we'll defo have technology to remove that CO2.

The BBC one hurts my brain to watch. Incoherent mess of a script. The DW one on the other hand is pretty good. Watch the first 5 minutes of each and you'll see the difference. Thanks for sharing.
I know what you mean. The sentence appears to makes sense, it is correct grammatically, but lacks substance. It's the equivalent of AI image generated stuff where at first glance the image looks fine, but it hurts your…
AFAIK only psychopathy is purely genetic. The rest i believe are susceptible (although very resistant) to treatment as they are only partially genetic, and partially environmental (suffered abuse, neglect). Some people…
For me it's insane, how in this day and age, we don't conduct DSM-V / ICD tests (interviews) that screen for Cluster B personality disorders on everyone, and bar, at least those with anti-social PD, psychopathy, or…
Sometimes. Have you ever played a single player game where there are achievements, goals, strategies to be had (...). You can often get addicted (eg Factorio) trying to optimize, make the best of your limited resources.…
"This blog post illustrates the importance of NEVER outsourcing your critical thinking or outsourcing decision-making to an LLM." This is a sentence that if written just 5 years ago would result in you being seen as…
This is the correct answer. Of all the engineering fields, SWE is by far the one with highest salary compared to how difficult it is. SWE lucked out on the fact that we have been going through a technological…

I have news for you. All humans do is also filling gaps with combinations of known facts and results - in new ways. "Everything is a Remix" is a good watch on youtube that explains this. Picasso might look like he has…
That's a nice metaphor for your mother, i like it. I would just touch on one small part, which is that it has more than our judgement though. It has access to laws of physics, to formulas, to all our current scientific…
It's correct but defenders also choose where that happens. 100% of the time on the locations and conditions that the defenders choose / allow. As a defender i need to be right 100% of the time, sure, but i can make it…
But how come you have magnesium deficiency in the first place, what are you not eating? People who need magnesium supplements still absorb magnesium, so the problem isn't absorption must be consumption.
I trust Grok as much as any other AI. What exactly is the history i should be concerned about?
That perspective is misleading. By that logic someone in 1960 would have to pay $100k to have a vacuum computer that is equivalent to a random calculator today. So then any price below $100k is ok for a calculator and…
"(...) it's going to effectively be a new human era..." We never like it when we realize the universe doesn't circle around us. At first we got mad to discover the Earth wasn't the center of the Solar system. Then we…
Imagine a smart monkey talking to other smart monkeys trying to figure out how humans would ever be able to escape the (simple) prison they built for them. The humans would find a way to escape. No matter how ingenious…
The comparison with the internet is not valid, and I can immediately give you one reason. I was there (3000 years ago) when the internet was in its infancy. When the dot com bubble was going on, the internet was a…
80%+ of arguments against AI on HN are emotion-driven. Most people on HN are SWE, and their job is a prime candidate to be replaced by AI. It also hurts the ego (hence the denial + anger) to finally realise that despite…
