Nothing, because Star Trek is a work of fiction
Halloween is easily one of the best holidays of the year. There's no seriousness or weight to it, there's no need to make travel plans, there's no need for a big dinner. You have no obligation to do anything, or you can…
DoorDash, at least for a while for me, was significantly cheaper than Instacart for grocery delivery, probably because they were trying to fight their way into the grocery delivery market. Now that they're just going to…
> No single company can be specialised in everything A machine with infinite attention and infinite knowledge probably could specialize in everything.
I think there's some real truth in this. OAI can build their Jalapeño chip because they have become experts in CUDA and have strong opinions on how the hardware should work for their models, but will have a much harder…
What does AGI actually mean to you? Does it mean 'exactly human level capabilities in all aspects that a human can perform'? Because I agree with you on that point - no one really wants it, either. We already have…
> For people like me, this is just yet one more way LLMs are making my life materially worse. I wonder if we start to hit a point where the pace that exploits are found and deployed increases faster than they get…
Yes, we should.
I am noticing the same thing at work, in software development. First, it's a lot of "Holy crap, Fable just saved us 10% of RAM usage across all our apps!", then it's becomes "we're not looking for as many junior…
I can't call AI "AI" without being termed an "enemy" by the President.

Why even bother when an AI is just going to do it better than you can? They have more money, more compute, and most importantly, will have next to zero cost of labor.
The IRA committed $400 billion and was the biggest piece of clean energy legislation ever made, and yet the Democrats were swept out of power 2 years later.
The current party which holds 3 of 3 branches of the government that would be responsible for prosecuting such a crime is entirely behind the idea that climate change is a hoax.
You sound like I sounded in 2021 but for software, and robots (will) have LLMs/RSI to make them advance even faster. It probably even starts like software where I can buy a home repair assistant to do basic repairs or…
And sell them to... ?
It's those who want the value of your labor to go to zero
Me too. I am personally much less worried about typical AI doomsday scenarios like bioweapons or mass hacking swarms. I am sure those will happen, but will be relatively targeted (even if that means huge numbers of…
It should also not be lost upon people that robotics is making huge improvements, too. The value of human labor is going to the price of electricity and raw materials outside of a few, small realms and people are not…
There is no answer. That's why this is such a terrifying moment for humanity.
> we will merge with the AIs at some point I actually see it more likely the opposite - a subset of humans will retreat into a (vastly smaller) human-first world, and AI will be of a separate world concerned with…
I personally don't think there will be a conflict, but more just an extinguishing of all things human, outside of niche forms of entertainment and care. It won't be machines that cause the conflict, but the frustrated…
My position is there is "nothing else" other than entertainment and elder/childcare. And even large portions of those can be automated. There is also zero chance that "society" is going to get to decide, either - we've…
