The first thing. Governments let it fester uncontrolled for decades, it's going to be a huge shitshow to try and control it now.

I don't think it would even be remotely as technically feasible or viable if it was crypto based. I don't want crypto either, but as far as I can tell, crypto is much much much less ergonomic and inconvenient than just having a ta

I'm reasonably certain that a lot of that sort of bullshit is literally just astroturfing by desperate AI companies. I know it happens but that doesnt mean there aren't people really going along with it.

In this case, it deserves an insult. The answer to all of those hypotheticals is "you don't, it's impossible". Please, go ahead and tell us how you ensure all of those things. I would very much like to hear what you have

I totally agree with you but the people and processes that led to this are going to be defensive no doubt. It's been telling who has been adopting "AI" coding and why.

I work in Texas and this is definitely a real thing. In person and within the company, sometimes swearing happens. It would certainly get you in trouble if it happened a lot on customer calls though. We may not care personally about it, but

Yes, I am saying that platforms should be policed to such an extent that they remove and ban all illegal content within a reasonable timeframe. And in the case of something like child porn, knowingly failing to do so quickly should lead to

Yep, just another reason they should be held liable the same as everybody else.

I really like this explanation and I think you are probably onto a thread of something real.

by BugheadTorpeda6 1y ago
Yep. That's my impression as well. It makes sense and seems like a good move. The whole thing was silly in the first place and it's not like almost everybody that has bothered to look into it didn't already suspect it was coo

It is literally exactly what probably a majority of UFO people have been saying for a long time. That's why it's so funny. A lot of UFO people (maybe enthusiasts would be a more apt term) are more skeptical of aliens and spaceship

I absolutely agree. I find it abhorrent.

I think basically what they are trying to say is that the whole idea that men behave the way they do because of a "lack of education in emotional literacy" or whatever is incorrect. The emotions themselves that bubble to the top b

It's absolutely good to have women spearheading this issue in my opinion. I don't think that's particularly cynical of you to want at all.

Productivity? I don't think so. Correctness, sure.

It would be interesting to see the hypothetical "return to fax machines" scenario. If Solows paradox is true and not the result of bad measurement, then one might expect that it could be workable without sacrificing much productiv

What extra productivity? Why doesn't it show up in the economic figures?

I don't see why being interested in academic subjects like that has to be driven via universities. In fact, they might even get in the way of developing a genuine interest in topics outside of your chosen major.

I don't really believe the whole bullshit jobs thing to the extent some do. There are definitely a lot of office space style "I gather the requirements from the customer so that the engineers don't have to" type jobs tha

I think recent history has made Solows paradox more interesting than Jevons, which is mostly a thing talked about by people with something to sell related to AI it seems, and less so by economists. Seems to have applied much better early in

I think it did, then they built up a most that made it very hard to turn momentum the other direction. It's turned now but it happened very slowly. Who knows if it ever falls of a cliff, all I know is that moats are only broken when mo

If people doing that truly wasn't a consideration before going ahead with this then the people that made the call are just as dumb as if they hadn't. Fwiw I don't think anybody is being driven "insane". More like hu

No not most people. A much larger percentage (I would wager greater than 50% of professionals) aren't using AI in any capacity in their professional work. It's banned in a lot of places for good reasons, and many more teams haven&

If they are just messing with their own projects then I guess I don't think it's immoral. If they start submitting AI slop to other projects then they ought to be banned by those projects' maintainers.

I don't know. I guess it depends on what you classify as being change. I don't really view software as having changed all that much since around maybe the mid 70s as HLLs began to become more popular. What programmers do today and

I'm lucky currently but have been unlucky in the past and very much understand where the person you are responding to is coming from. I think you've had an exceedingly long string of luck that is very rare if you've never had

Only in very specific circumstances where there are clear moats to be built (mobile was one of these that Microsoft missed, but that's a PLATFORM in a way no AI product at the moment comes close to). As far as I can tell, there is no e
