You need to calm the f down. Do you understand anything about machine learning, software and hardware? How do you propose that some configuration will become generally intelligent given what we know today? I'd really like to hear your

I think it goes deeper than that. I think some are exploiting "end time" religious fears in America to get AI taken away and restricted from the public because a public empowered by AI is a threat to the current power structure. T

Learning to use your tools is part of any job. I don't understand the point of this article or why such a low quality entry is on the front page.

Good point. It's a crazy, mixed up world we live in.

My reason for posting was I was appalled by this interview, which I think was quite irresponsible. I've lost all respect for Lex Fridman for playing the hapless dupe "just asking questions" and not pushing back harder. Elieze

Thanks for the recommendations. I have concerns too, but it seems to me some are stoking fears for political and religious purposes. For example, talking about Golems and Sam Altman being Jewish to justify their antisemitism. https:/&

You're bringing the law into this but I'm not. That's a different issue. I support laws for trans people to have equal rights. The world won't stop saying negative things about people like me and I accept that. Just last

I solidly mean #1. I hate that Facebook and others started advertising hard liquor. If I worked at Facebook, I could start a movement among employees to get the ads banned. Another example would be Google employee refusing to work on defens

I've lost a lot of friends. I've had people tell me they can't stand me because their Dad was an abusive alcoholic. I lost a job because of a manic episode. I know it's hard for normies to understand so I have compassion

I can't help but feel this is aimed at trans activists who protested the Chappelle special. I think he went too far at a couple places, but that's what comedians do. I don't think it's transphobic to push back on trans a

This guy is not a psychiatrist. He makes an obvious point that we have a tendency to defend what our opponents attack sometimes when we shouldn't. I get so tired of the Malcolm Gladwell substack articles that get posted frequently to H

Yes and if RMS doesn't like Apple Computers he doesn't have to use them. It's not his business if I decide Apple Computers are acceptable to me.

I realized that later after my comment went into negative point territory, but couldn't edit it. I apologize for attacking the character of RMS because I don't know him. What I am reacting against is being told I am wrong for runn

From what I can tell, RMS asserts we have the right to inspect the source code of the software that runs on our machines. What is the source of this right? Is it a universal human right? A self-evident inalienable right? Did RMS want to hac

In the context of the question, it is no longer the case that a compiler has to compile to machine code to be considered self-hosting. I thought this was clear, but I guess it wasn't

Sure, I didn't say they didn't. Are you refuting what I said and implying that a compiler is not self-hosted if it doesn't compile to machine code?

It used to be the case that a compiler compiled itself to bare metal machine instructions, but now with so many cpu instruction set targets that's no longer the case. LLVM uses an intermediate language like an assemby language. Another
