There were many movements planned in the 1970s, but the failure of the Soviet system seems like the key driving force in the rise of this one to me.

China is run by the Chinese communist party. You can’t own a house there (only a 99 year lease) and their notion of private property is very different. It’s not that simple.

I have many issues with the CCP but as long as large scale war is avoided, this will be the silver lining in its rise. Hopefully there are clearer successes of some socialist aspects our society can learn from.

I'm probably not going to convince you but I just read through the most recent ones and they are not that surprising. To me I would summarize the story as "there was debate inside the company about whether or not to ban Trump&quot

There have been repeated reports of negative outcomes as a result of TikTok trends. There have been investigations into the amount of information the app collects and it is far beyond what other apps do (all without user consent). The app i

What about if storage improves? Can't that smooth out the intermittent nature and provide for the base load?

I see your overall point and I think I agree I just think it’s a question of degree rather than a binary expansionist/not. For example, didn’t Native American tribes expand to America from Asia?

It seems like almost no matter what the AI folks come up with, there will be some potential way of interpreting neural phenomena as loosely mapping onto it.

Sweeping generalizations about AI models as a class of objects seem deeply uninformative to me. Perhaps I would even go so far as to say misleading. These days any undergrad can go on GitHub and have a model that does some diagnosis and I d

In addition to the ubiquity of monopolies and negative externalities mentioned, public goods are also a way in which free markets don’t properly reward people’s contributions to society. The classic textbook example is a public park, whose

And as far as safety scores, my point is that the safety score is calculated incorrectly because of obvious false positives with "close following". I'm talking being nowhere near a car, getting an alert that says I'm fol

TPUs are hard to use outside of Google, (I have tried in and out of Google). I think the situation is improving, but the efficiency from using a large pod is really remarkable. What topology did you train AI models on? Within Google it&#x27

I'd sum up your points 1,2,3 as "more data". This would be a reason to think they can one day be ahead if they can take advantage of this, but not evidence that they are currently ahead. Occupancy networks: waymo has publishe

I think stockfish with limited depth to compute every move in under .1 second would still be incredibly stronger than a human to the point where their involvement would produce worse moves.

I agree. My read on this set of texts is Musk trying to get Dorsey on his side to help with the acquisition.

You don't have to view your work as a source of fun or fulfillment to be enjoyable to work with. And I also don't think you need to enjoy anything to complete tasks well, but if you don't take any joy at all in anything you w

Hey as long as you enjoy some aspect of work that is fine. If you find things you enjoy more outside of work and derive true meaning from things outside of work, then that's amazing. All I was saying was _IF_ there is absolutely nothin

I don’t know what the percentages are. All I know is there are many people who can enjoy some aspect of work, and I would much rather work with them than with someone who can’t enjoy anything about the work. People who are completely apathe

I’m sorry if you feel that way. If there is absolutely nothing you can find that is fun about your job then honestly yeah I would rather not have you on my team because it sounds like it would be a pretty bad time working together.

I don’t want to work in a place where any budget cuts result in people saying there is no fun to be had anymore. That’s a pretty negative environment. It seems like a reasonable statement to say, we should try and find ways for the work its

Huh I was at this meeting and it didn’t seem heated. To me it felt like a CEO explaining difficult choices and the reasoning behind them.

It would be nice if more of the burden of proof were on subjective systems that historically have been full of racial bias, rather than on the communities that have historically suffered from the effects of the discrimination. This is not a

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but it seems like you are arguing for a fairly hard-line stance of: Facebook shouldn't be allowed to censor or take down any content, and all decisions to do this should be pushed down to individual
