a new paradigm of 3 day work weeks. share the salary of the days off with those less automatable, and work to automate everyone. I wish some sort of dicussion like this could happen where the workers of the world get to see some of the gai

It's happening, but theres no law of the universe that says it has to be 1:1. Why are you so confident in this regard? 250 years is a very small slice of human history and could easily be the outlier.

Would this not be considered insider trading? Serious question

As far as Australia is concerned, this isn't as much of a throwing away of principles and liberties as it might look. It's classic Australia to have a heavier hand in these types of ways. Admittedly though, less social media use g

I subscribe to the notion that morals are emotion based propositions and thus aren't quite as grounded in pure logic. As in there is not an objective morality, just things we know to be good and bad that are abstracted away from direct

Reason and logic lead you to only two choices, where one choice immediately begs you to abandon reason and logic and just believe what feels right? I think reason and logic can take you further than that. We can explore a spectrum of ideas

Excellent comment. From a pure resource allocation perspective, walking the current path is like looking down the barrel so to speak. I guess our fate is already in the hands of the decision makers. Hopefully theres enough conscience up the

I can’t think of many major resources left to extract. Attention seems to be the last novel one. So what’s the pivot from here? If people are increasingly digitally pacified, what genuinely new needs or industries emerge next? As a consumer

Honestly, I think we are arguing around each other. We simply read this notion totally differently. You're taking it to mean that "we can't correct bias" but the statement was "we can't avoid bias". It act

by dvsfish 11mo ago
The parent’s point was plainly that bias is unavoidable and making it overt is realistically all we can do. It’s a pragmatic take, albeit overly terse. They could have additionally included something like “and try to minimize its effects” s

Yep fair point. I was taking them literally, though I didn't necessarily feel the context meant their post was bad faith or concessional, just a simple truth. Your elaboration adds a fair bit to your argument though and I am pretty sur

by dvsfish 11mo ago
I get the sentiment of what you're saying, but I don’t think that’s totally fair to the parent. Biases aren’t automatically "bad" or "failings". they’re akin to heuristics, and it’s practically impossible to elimin

I think with the suggestion made at the end about that google would be getting out of phones (for some reason - perhaps graphene causing google long term phone margins to no longer be worth it? What are you actually suggesting?) it's h

Wow this is so cool! Love a nifty but well executed little project. Editor especially is wonderful.

What a brilliant irony. Excellent comment. I suppose "non-Von Neumann architectures" would just instead have someone else's name associated with it had it been invented by someone else.

100% agree. You'd start to think "Anna doesn't like us" and just move on. Despite what they're going through, some level of responsibility falls on them to express a sense of "it's not you it's me&quo

Hmm I don't feel like this should be taken as a tenet of AI. I feel a more relevant kernel would be less black and white. Also I think what you're saying is a direct contradiction of the parent. Below average people can now get av

I agree in principle but as time goes on I have found that the free and open internet as we know it already no longer exists in practise. Theres like 5 places to go on the internet these days - your social media platform of choice, your sho

Can't you capitalize power costs to an extent by building a solar and battery array? A sufficiently wealthy company would have the means to find a place to put it that can optimise for both conditions I imagine. I am a total layman in

Funny and sad anecdote - I was travelling through Paris and met some Americans on the train.. and they commented on the fact Paris doesn't seem to have many medical facilities compared to the USA. It was presented as a negative, which

This is only true where it is distinguishable that the end result is made with care and love rather than indiscriminate copying. Which is why attribution is essential. No one realistically could tell a ring was hand crafted or mass produced

The engagement ring is a good example object, but I feel it serves the opposite argument better. If engagement rings were as ubiquitous and easy to generate as Ghibli images have become, they would lose their value very quickly -- not even

I guess the point is that op was pretty adamant that LLMs refuse to write selection sorts?

I remember one of the bluey episodes (something to do with monkey bars?) used ode to joy a few times throughout, and in the credits simply had "music by Ludwig". A very cute nod.

I think the point made there was that the results you see will differ based on where you are in the world, on both search engines. Admittedly I haven't used Kagi so I'm not sure this is the case, but I believe that was the point.

I feel like this would be great advice if "CDL" was unambiguously googleable. This might be regional but I have no idea what this is meant to mean.

bloat, feature creep, insistence upon itself, are all tantamount to this economic system. Without them, there isn't enough for everyone to do. True innovation is rare or prohibitively expensive these day since most of the low hanging
