Yeah most of us are so fucked. With almost no way of protecting ourselves. No real amount of assets that will give enough power to save ourselves from the people in a position that can maximally leverage AI and lock others out. I see a futu

And because it's accurate the AI will know how to weigh that accurate information against other accurate information in such a way that it will give you a great answer without any help. In other words: any amateur will be able to do ai

Apple should also be forced to allow the user freedom to choose at least one other OS. But maybe thats too much to ask. I think it's not too much too ask, but I am probably an outlier. Dont start about Asahi please. I know it exists.

I actually have exactly a clock as a mental model of the year and the seasons. December is 12 o' clock. But weirdly, I dont have a mind's clock to represent the day. Precisely because it feels to me that the clock shape is unfit t

Its because democracies werent and arent really democracies. But that aside. Corruption is rampant, the oil sector has politians in their pocket for a long long time and since the cold war, a counter narrative doesnt really put any weight

I almost never hear the story that I find the most believable: that a small group of people will use AI to demolish the 99.999% of us.

I get their point, but they are probably wrong. Not saying the AIs will not get better and better. They probably will, but I see a chance that there are smaller and smaller gains and the AIs cant make those gains happen. But coding with ll

That is a false way of saying it. Because then you are unpacking what dBs are, which is fascinating, but not how humans perceive sound. We use dBs exactly because it approaches human experience of sound better (although still shitty) than s

Are you the kind of guy that says that all things that serve no purpose except for entertainment should be banned? I am of the opposite school. I think practical things are fine and dandy, but the things that make us human, make life worth

There is a pretty interesting study of a large group of chimps. I dont remember where exactly but they have been civil warring the last 15 years or so. Point is, it seems that there is some kind of innate group formation process.
