I'm actually surprised people wake up an give two fucks about any of this to be honest. It sounds like people looking for things to complain about. The "enshitification" of the internet makes me laugh.

How much is 'modernity' screwing up your life right now?

Don't worry, with generative AI, everyone's social media will look 10x more awesome and it will all be fake. Even wealthy people will take it to a new level.

Yeah, also quite bad, I've seen the aftermath of this liquefaction in Japan. Whole apartment blocks topped over with seemingly good foundations.

One thing which isn't discussed enough is how bad the Tsunami is environmentally. The coastline of Japan is absolutely littered with crap from the 2011 Tsunami. All manner of chemicals were sucked into the nearby sea, tires, carpets, h

I think you misinterpreted what I mean. I'm not saying that they can't be more capable, I'm saying the guy can get a little overly excited about things which are hard to measure or quantify. We're observing these syste

I agree, in nearly every example I've seen, I see zero "understanding of physics" if anything it showed me the opposite.

I recently saw Hinton give a talk where he very, very, very excitedly and confidently gave us an example to demonstrate how incredibly intelligent and creative LLMS are. He asked an LLM a question, but he didn't give us the answer. He

Sometimes I do get the feeling that he is just slowing down and innovation and change just keep going at the same rate. He seems to parrot the same sort of ideas over and over again. I find he can get really fixated on certain examples, thi

It says in the article 4000 people lost their jobs, not that 4000 jobs were created from AI. Not that I disagree with you, but what new jobs as AI created?

Do you find a large database or spreadsheet that hold more information than you can "alien" too?

This is actually a sort of mental crutch which some eastern philosophy talks about. Which is interesting. It's not really seen as a positive thing in those traditions. Rather than non-judgmentally listening to what people have to say,

No, maybe save the low value comments for some other forum.

100% having the same experience. It's mind bending how tired you can get. We recently all had the flu, 2 nights of the baby having a fever and both of us being sick and also having a fever was one of the most testing things in my life.

It basically destroyed long bouts of jet lag for me. I fly into LA, get some edibles and get straight off to sleep, wake up at a reasonable hour the next day no side effects.

It's because taking these drugs give people "other ideas" about their life which don't sit well with maintaining the status quo in society we have today. People might start to become radicalized, see themselves as more c

I think that's how most people who use generative AI use it. It's a novelty thing. They get something back and are happy. Move on...

Some very good refutations here...really interesting perspectives too. I like this one: Worker protection, ok, US worker protection globally known for being great? If im China a train-line is built 10x as fast, then even assuming higher in

I'm sorry but I just don't think that's a valid enough excuse because all of the things you mentioned are part of "getting a project done". Everything you mentioned should've been done as part of a study before

I don't understand what the point of this article is, not even slightly...but I often force close apps because the UI is so terrible that it's easier to just reopen the app rather than use the crappy UI. Google maps...I force clos

The only cases of bike theft I've heard about are drunk salarymen in Tokyo who miss the last train and take a bike to ride home on.

There is so, so much corruption and white collar "Yakuza" crime in Japan, the economy is going totally backwards along with the population and here is where the effort is going? Good thing the place has it's priorities straig

It seems concerning that the US isn't able to complete basic infrastructure projects. Even if they're a little over time and budget. In other parts of the world, infrastructure is getting done. Looking at how much high speed rail
