"Too many hyphens!" is definitely the dumbest insult I've ever seen for someone digging through a comment history, holy shit.

Yes it is, it's called planning-ahead for the extremely predictable.

I'm surprised how low suicide rates are at 2%. If I were an old sick person and steadily becoming more of a burden, there's no way in hell I would just leave it to nature to decide when I die, or let the profit-maximizing hospita

It's a Tesla fanboy/investor website. They used to have the $TSLA stock ticker right on the front page. Commentor opinions on any other car company are even more useless than the average internet opinion.

Transplanted kidneys get rejected by the recipient's immune system eventually, you'd really need to clone the kidney from the individual's DNA to solve the rejection problem. There's also been some success with integrat

You skipped any attempt to prove his statements wrong, this is just reddit-level sneering with zero discussion material.

It's been like 18 months of Google saying they're putting genAI into all their services, it's 100% your fault if this is a surprise for you. "We need to push for the right to opt out of AI features." You've had

They took 1 step at a time instead of trying to take multiple steps at a time, how is that a bad thing. They're obviously getting things prep'd for Chrome agents and Gemini 3.

I think if Google trained current models on private data, confidential info would leak constantly, it would be an absolute trainwreck. If Gemini leaked your Gmail and Chrome activity, Google would get sued and regulated into oblivion. But

This response is good but the more general problem is that people are in "It doesn't look like anything to me" mode like Westworld robots seeing advanced technology. If there's a way to snap people out of that, I'v

I think it's just a simple case of "when times are good, people cooperate, when times are bad, they turn on each other." And right now, we're somewhere in-between, where things have stagnated but nothing's catastrop

Right now it's the at-risk people, who maybe were going to fall into some rabbit-hole anyway. When it's the typical/average people that start getting hooked like this, that's going to be a whole new headache. Really hop

This is called the "Man bites dog" bias. The many people who don't commit suicide because an AI confidant helped them out are never ever gonna make the news. Meanwhile the opposite cases are "TODAY'S TOP HEADLINE&q

If Harris was president, this letter would probably say "We proudly support the future of American scholarship and inclusion over simple-minded emotional reactions".

If Dems put any strategy into winning elections, they would never have picked Hillary, Biden, or Harris.

by j_timberlake 1y ago
Just in time for the midterm elections? Seems like the Dems have this handed to them on a silver platter, but they're so bad at winning elections, it probably still won't matter.

They're not going to suddenly become competent enough to implement something like that.

"You are probably not very exposed to non-native speakers." If native speakers have to talk to people of other languages to understand it, then it's not even English at that point. What it is, who knows.

Absolutely not happening. If robots get versatile enough to clean a random home, then they'll be good enough for higher-value work like being a robotic soldier or building more robots. And if they're taking lots of jobs like tha

That's probably their best bet, though the other AI companies are shaking hands too: https://www.gsa.gov/about-us/newsroom/news-releases/gsa-prop... Announced exactly 1 day before the $1 thing, to make e

I know, you wanted to vent about the USA and abandon the thread topic, and I countered your argument without even leaving the topic. Like how I can say that the future of USA's AI is probably going to obliterate your local job market r

You don't understand! Every erotic chatbot service keeps getting censored, what happened to CharacterAI just keeps happening. There's a serious supply-shortage, do you really want people turning to Grok? The spice must flow!!!

"irrelevance" yeah sure, I'm sure Europe's AI industry is going to kick into high gear any day now. Mistral 2026 is going to be lit. Maybe Sir Demis will defect Deepmind to the UK.

The correlation between "speculator is a billionaire" and "speculator is good at predicting things" is much higher than the correlation between "guy has a HN account" and "guy knows more about the future o

My 2 cents: ChatGPT -> Gemini 1 was their 15-month lead. The moment ChatGPT threatened Google's future Search revenue (which never actually took a hit afaik), Google reacted by merging Deepmind and Google Brain and kicked off the G
