Move production to the US so Trump can hold your infrastructure hostage and make ridiculous demands.

Also so Trump can turn a blind eye when China invades.

Children aren't being produced. Birth rates are declining.

People conflate the carrying capacity of the economy with GDP, but these are different. The economy grows but requires fewer workers over time. As the carrying capacity decreases, the population decreases. On the ground, this manifests as the inability to afford child rearing.

The excerpt you cited assumes that this race of workers must afford to perpetuate itself in order to be viable. It cannot perpetuate itself, and it is not viable.


I wish this site had a lot less ill conceived free market fan fiction woven into racially charge eugenics.


The LLMs will learn from our interactions with them. That's why they're often free


I wonder if it's purposeful misdirection


I don't think so.

They had 30 days to process 10s of thousands of documents. The rumors floating around is they had to pull in people from other departments to work on the task.

It's pretty plausible that someone thought a black highlighter was good enough for redaction.


Most books could and should be condensed by about 100x. Poor communication skills and zero respect for people's time.


Lord of the rings: A human-like individual leaves his house to drop a ring in some lava.


Maybe the Turing test for one. Maybe etc.


Except nobody ever actually considered the "turing test" to be anything other than a curiosity in the early days of a certain branch of philosophy.

If the turing test is a goal, then we passed it 60 years ago and AGI has been here since the LISP days. If the turing test is not a goal (which is the correct interpretation), nobody should care what a random nobody thinks about an LLM "passing" it.

"LLMs pass the turing test so they are intelligent (or whatever)" is not a valid argument full stop, because "the turing test" was never a real thing ever meant to actually tell the difference between human intelligence and artificial intelligence, and was never formalized, and never evaluated for its ability to do so. The entire point of the turing test was to be part of a conversation about thinking machines in a world where that was an interesting proposition.

The only people who ever took the turing test as a "goal" were the misinformed public. Again, that interpretation of the turing test has been passed by things like ELIZA and markov chain based IRC bots.


Even if this is good, I'll never know because I'm not investing time into something that will be canceled in one year.


The only thing to simulate is my personal experience.


Just a terrible description of what this is. I know a lot about Bitcoin and I can't make sense of this.


That font with a bit of margin looks fantastic on my phone specifically. Really nailing the minimalist look. What font is that?


"font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji";"

from the css so odds are it's whatever your browser or OS's default sans font is, in my case it's SF Pro which is an Apple font though it may vary if you use a non Apple device.
