Well it certainly doesn't appreciate. And I feel that AI hardware is going to rapidly depreciate faster than even typical PC hardware

You are mere hundreds of miles from cheap Chinese panel manufacturing. The Chinese are going to pump manufacturing oversupply for likely a decade more. 10 years roi is mass scale corruption

If we really have intelligent LLMs, then I would guess they are going to inflate their token rates, which when someone sees "token costs" they should think "invisibly variable consulting rates". I just did a complex (for

Why shouldn't that be true practically every consumer home in the world? Yes, grid scale deployments are cheaper, but I'm generally guessing a lot of the grid scale solar deployments do not price in the grid infrastructure adaptat

On a related note, why isn't a shotgun now standard armament for infantrymen? Is there a better/cheaper anti-drone infantry weapon? I saw this ridiculous Russian training video of some soldier doing a tuck and roll with an ak-47 a

So the hawking radiation is so strong that it impedes matter falling into the hole? And can you charge the hole with enough of a charge to use electromagnetism to move and contain it?

Because they are dumping/subsidizing it token processing to try and get companies to fire as many people as possible. So they'll be dependent upon the companies when they have to Jack the rates

The end state vector of capitalism has been like this for decades now. What can change this: - large scale geopolitical demographic collapse of China and/or world trade requiring massive industrial production investment, which would be

The US basically refused to do a Marine expeditionary landing. Our infantry doesn't have anti-drone defenses. They probably haven't been trained or equipped with shotguns to attack flying drones, much less have flotillas of H-K dr

"Substantial" seems like a damning word. So one of my pet theories I haven't seen in general discourse is that AI came from the massive vector processing jump available commercially in GPUs when it left CPU bound processing b

You missed the biggest one Us military has had active demonstrations of the importance of advanced drone munitions FOR TEN YEARS NOW and completely dropped the ball. It is clear that an organizational level the US military does not have inf

The answer is yes. The world is deglobalizing, and while drones may not exert Blue water power projection, they now dominate littoral power projection. Marine invasions may be impossible in drone combat without drone superiority, and right

" The housing problem hasn't been solved" This assumes it is a problem that is being addressed. When housing values soar, there are people getting rich off of that. The "solution" is devaluation of people's ass

But if cacebook has aws class data centers for their IT, and anthropic level AI for their programmers.... .... Why keep that only in house and why not make competitive public companies?

Are the LFTR / MSR salts better or worse than hot sodium on vessel containment? But with MSRs of a scalable size you could just pipe the fuel to a replacement reactor when the current vessel reached its operational life.

And even on that timeline, that spots another 6 years for perovskite solar cell development, wind farm build out, and sodium ion and other ultra cheap storage chemistries to develop. The oppressive economics of alternative energy right now

What's depressing about this? Is it involves freeway driving. Which should theoretically be the simplest thing to train AI for, and the thing you should be able to get the best change and construction reporting to a centralize system a

Build a solar plant in the Sahara desert and ship the energy long range, Nuclear's probably still more expensive than that. I'm not saying we give up on nuclear entirely. It should be at the well-funded research and prototyping ph

They are a distant third at best, at least in trading companies. If you look at Chinese and other likely national actors, they are probably further down. The thing with dotComs is that they didn't have THIS level of unsustainable finan
