For a person so eager to psychoanalyze others, the author sure seems oblivious to his own biases.

I have learned about YCombinator, hacker news, Paul Graham, and startups in general through one of his essays. I was first blown away by the brilliance and clarity of his writing, and only then did I learn that he's a prominent tech fi

You gotta think about it in terms of cost vs benefit. How much damage will a malicious AI do, vs how much value will you get out of non-neutered model?

Is that really a contradiction? We all have our ideals, and we all fail to live up to them sometimes, because life can be brutal.

Oh, sorry to hear that you have to deal with that! The way I'm getting a sense of the progress is using AI for what AI is currently good at, using my human brain to do the part AI is currently bad at, and comparing it to doing the same

I'm pretty sure you're wrong for at least 2 of those: For 3D models, check out blender-mcp: https://old.reddit.com/r/singularity/comments/1joaowb/claude... https://old.reddit.com&#x2

I'm pretty good at what I do, at least according to myself and the people I work with, and I'm comparing its capabilities (the latest version of Claude used as an agent inside Cursor) to myself. It can't fully do things on it

Why would it get 60-80% as good as human programmers (which is what the current state of things feels like to me, as a programmer, using these tools for hours every day), but stop there?

I think it's a gradient. When I think about the "nightmare to live in", I think Soviet Union or North Korea. Those are the places who went all-in on redistribution. Most western countries mostly respect individual freedom and

Nothing about the current system (capitalism) prevents people from sharing freely, that's just charity. I think it's wonderful and admirable when people do that, and I fully support that, as long as it's voluntary. I'd b

I don't think the world where a mob of people can gang up on a person and take their stuff is as idyllic as you think it is. If the person who has figured out how to earn a lot of food doesn't get to "hoard" it, it'

So, a cuttting edge AI model turned out to be much cheaper and easier to produce than we thought. Weird reason to call something a "fad". Here's to hope nobody invents a way to produce much cheaper and faster cars, or this wh

"Intelligence" is a poorly defined term prone to arguments about semantics and goalpost shifting. I think it's more productive to think about AI in terms of "effectiveness" or "capability". If you ask it,
