the author claims that AI makes things more expensive. in my experience, $200/month is a small price for such a productivity increase the author also speculates without reason that tokens are discounted, and…
using AI makes an individual more capable and empowered. this views AI as an accessible tool, like AWS or a nail gun individual empowerment threatens institutions
with AI, one person can accomplish much more collaboration adds overhead, but expands what's possible. need to think bigger to continue to see the benefits
I think this is mathematicians coming to grips with the fact that AI is surpassing them we will all have this moment soon enough, and it will change how we think about intelligence, identity and value
thanks for diving in, though I don't find the reasons convincing as I will briefly enumerate ads fund access for poor people. Ant has a different philosophy, not a better one. Altman was supported by >90% of employees.…
same, I'm a paying user in the US
what makes the company so terrible?
OAI didn't try to claim Buckmaster's work as their own. OAI tried to let Buckmaster present OAI's work. it is nearly the opposite of your accusation
it seems like OAI tried to share, but didn't want to share with an Ant employee. a bit childish, but understandable to want to avoid a headline "Anthropic researcher solves Millennium problem" it seems like Buckmaster…
just because you can't imagine it doesn't mean it's not true
that is not related to the accusation that they literally stole Buckmaster's work, which seems baseless I don't agree with the oil claim analogy. this is knowledge, freely given to the world. not something hoarded by a…
what reason do we have to believe that they did this? both things were proved by AI, isn't it logical that they could have very similar approaches? it is common that multiple people essentially simultaneously…
we have some pushback against Flock, but technology does not regress there are many people who want to use surveillance to deter and catch criminals surveillance also helps combat certain abuses of power, like cops…
surveillance technology is not going away. we need to mitigate the downsides what systems could be changed or created to prevent abuse of power?
your own post says in detail that the US has export restrictions on those countries. this doesn't seem like an arbitrary ruling by OpenAI it sounds like they are complying with US law

what's the point here? a wrong thing happening to Aaron doesn't mean we should make that same thing happen to Meta
you have to opt in to private contributions being visible like that
this is a type of false equivalency. the comments you read earlier were likely left by different people the whiplash can be jarring, but it's important to remember that the commentariat are many individuals, not a…
could we relax the security around electric planes, because they don't carry as much highly explosive material? that could make it much more convenient and appealing as a travel method
isn't this the fault of the subcontractor for agreeing to the impossible?
yes, they are. they are hugely concerned that China has loads of power, and the US is incapable of keeping up the biggest limiting factors for AI labs scaling are silicon, then electricity. they are acutely aware of this
since 2016 ish, big tech has measured infrastructure efficiency in watts, not dollars. that's because they made multiple long term deals for power that came up short they want to build more power of any kind, ideally…
