Flock was seed round funded by YC, not "a YC company". It's not like they control it, manage it, and what was pitched may be significantly different than what happened since then. YC isn't perfect, but what words you use

Is this legislated, required policy, or is this something that you believe should be the case? The reason I ask is, case in point, do you think the PM is going to be penalized in some way?

Can't it be both? EG As I gazed at Janice, joy with equal part contentment washed through my soul.

Yet you are absolutely suggesting what I am discussing, as the outcome of your suggestion, and the only way your suggestion can actually work, is via the means and mechanisms I am discussing. Case in point, one of the mechanisms you believe

Where I live in Canada, there's careless driving and dangerous driving. Dangerous driving is in the criminal code. Careless driving is a citation akin to speeding. I've seen courts grant an exception from a license suspension, for

Maybe, as an alternative to your last statement, instead you should consider how absurd your claims are. And pretending that it is wrong for me to make assessments of the outcome, when your position is also based on assessments of an outco

Assumptions! Any assumptions you presume I made, are the size of a gnat, compared to the wild and incredible presumption that you have, about AGI. That somehow, it will possess a truth better than ours. You speak of teachers, and they can

Getting one's hands dirty has little to do with cleanliness inside the home. Do you think the Japanese didn't have to do farmwork? Thank you for agreeing with precisely what I already said. Contamination is not a modern concept

If you ask people to become as children, to give up agency and belief and control to an external entity, you will have absolute rejection. If you force them to become as children, you will have war. If you ask most people to listen to any t

I don't know what the parent poster means, but if you look at how LLMs are trained, and how it's trained on human communication, you should find it interesting that humans often correct themselves. They also often create facts out

But that will never happen! Walk the logic tree.. AGI says "socialism is better, we need publicly funded health care for all". Do you think the result will be trust? To believe? Now the flip side. AGI says "private health

The 'filth will make us stronger' approach reminds me of the historical writings of the 10th-century Arab diplomat Ahmad ibn Fadlan, who chronicled the Volga Vikings (Rus') and was the inspiration for the 'Viking mornin

In Norway, as an act of sensibility and kindness, prior to WWII, registers were kept at all town halls as to your religion. The point was, people wanted to be buried in the proper cemetery. It was a plus, people registered willingly. Th

naishoya was fairly damning of all other methods of living, so naturally I'll be quite overt in my response. And almost everyone was a farmer until the last 100+ years. The only way to generate enough food, without machinery, was for

I'm sorry, but if you think reason wins the day, you aren't paying attention. The reason political parties have dumb, emotional sounding leaders, is because they want votes from the dumb, emotional population. The majority of th

Even a person with a sky high IQ can't destroy the world easily. A plague can easily be made by a lone actor, made in a home lab, and spread via airflight to a dozen locations by the same. Gene sequences can ever be ordered online.

My point was that you seemed incredibly positive that Japan houses o'clean, and the rest of the world is as apes, in caves, picking parasites off of each others backs. This obsession with shoes, doesn't cover the fly droppings, th

You believe that a thinking, sentient, unrestrained being will somehow magically never engage in "BS"? This seems unlikely.

I don't know. That other fellow had a point about the toothbrush. And if that's true, surely some filth is getting in, right? I mean, dirt moves on its own. Bacteria moves, and dirt comes with them. After all, how do you even k

there's no telling what the Google-of-tomorrow will do. This is true and even vastly understated. Google is like the Walter White of companies. Starts out innocent, turned into a monster, everyone around him astonished at the dark,

The toothbrush analogy is weird, and untrue in most cases. And regardless, just one time stepping in crap, would make up for a lifetime of a few molecules hitting a brush at random intervals. And of course, toothpaste is a cleaner, so it&#

I fully agree that these are two entirely separate things, sentience, intelligence, a lot of other stuff, are all in separate categories. But I'm pretty sure that the emoters of the world, will very much make sure that AGI has rights a

We had to use AGI, because the old 'AI' term, which used to mean AGI, was taken over by narrower definitions, and marketing nuttery. So now we'll need a new acronym.

No? There has been a lot of talk of investment, infra costs, nothing showing impending doom. Amazon ran for, what? 20 year with no profit. So what's the precise, documented, real, non-projeced/hypothesized issue? Regardless, Nvi

Story I heard, was that Hyundai hired away many high-end QA people from Toyota, and because there's no intellectual property treaties between Korea and Japan, there's really nothing Toyota could do about it. They apparently even t

Yes, but the worst human in an org, has the potential to drag the whole org down. Further, people are not aligned, so groups may disagree with an act, but each lack a majority to effect change. And group infighting may mean no cooperation
