This is the question that the Trump administration uses to loyalty-test partisan replacement bureaucrats. Is it possible that this is a mistake? Sure, just like it's possible that Chinese models weren't intentionally…
The "fast takeoff" scenarios got most of the attention, but the "slow takeoff" scenarios better match the reality we find ourselves in and they tend to involve economics. We are a capitalist economy, which means the…
So you admit that you were making a nonsense argument. Thanks for your honesty!
Because "private good public bad" brainwashing has been so effective that most Americans see this structure as a good thing, even though the consequences are very obvious and very bad.
It's less true every day, now that Trump is busy filling the ranks of the bureaucracy with people who respond to the loyalty-test question "Who won the 2020 election?" with "Donald Trump."
No, the fact that people occasionally get hurt by accident with fireworks does not make the violent subtext in "attacking a government building with explosives" a correct description of the situation.
Not without work it won't. Trump II has been using "Who won the 2020 election?" as a shibboleth to fill the ranks with True Believers. Nobody gets power without answering "Trump" to that question.
Whether AI winds up being just another industrial transition or the bogeyman of lore, those effects all happen through the economy. At first, anyway.
You don't have to convince me that he doesn't care about the economy and never did, but this was something that a great many of his followers talked themselves into believing two years ago.
It's because Trump's tech donors used their bought access to barrage him with lesswrong-style lore dumps on the dangers of Artificial Superintelligence and the first and last thing he understood or cared about was that…
You can order a 128GB MacBook Pro today -- though point taken, memory size probably does belong in the three part plan :-)
Yeah, the "profit motive makes it right" idea that permeates our culture and law is bass ackwards.
With a three point plan, I suspect: memory bandwidth, memory bandwidth, and more memory bandwidth.
On the contrary, you can feed the model counterfactuals and see what it does. Edit the person to be white then feed the image back into the model and see if its opinion changes.
"We have no work for you but you must work or you're lazy" is a ripe flavor of bullshit that really outweighs vague threats about how labor policy tweaks today will surely lead to the holodomor tomorrow.
...and yet I'm the only one in this thread even indirectly pointing a finger at the entitled goober with the woodchipper. Funny, that.
I'm simply relating something I have observed through experience: the woodchipper goobers are excellent at victim blaming. If they wrangle you into that woodchipper, they will absolutely say it is your fault.
I think the market will teach them the lesson, because they have no political power with which to avoid learning it. Unlike the other goober I mentioned, who absolutely has power and is planning to use it to make sure…
I'm personally more concerned by the entitled goobers who think it's perfectly reasonable to feed the hardworking majority into a woodchipper if it multiplies the money in their brokerage account. Those are a structural…
The industrial revolution could have done a much better job taxing and regulating industrialists to reduce squalor. "They will outgrow us if we don't squalor-maxx" was a dogshit argument then and it's a dogshit argument…

"Growth mentality" is only convincing if you're actually delivering the growth, though. If your threat is that demanding more will mean our billionaires have a lower number than their billionaires... your offer is not…
The trouble with unionization is that it doesn't really address supply and demand, just bargaining. There are a dozen un-pulled levers available to bring aggregate labor supply and demand in balance. Overtime law,…
and politics. The last wave of worker bargaining wins happened in the wake of the Great Depression when the last of the capitalist prosperity gospel promises were defaulted upon and the electorate finally became willing…
My text inbox went into nuclear meltdown shortly after giving my number in a donation to a local charity. I hear that political donations have the same effect, so I haven't done any of those, but in any case there…
