tech companies compete for talent first and product second; the primary purpose was to slow down competitors from developing a driverless car before apple had evaluated it as a potential platform. it wasn’t to build a platform itself, at le

apple got into cars because other people got into cars. it’s that simple.

They live in a tech bubble is what they live in. Anyone working at a non-tech company would learn this in the first week.

I mean the entire tech industry is predicated on a continued exponential growth of computer power. It could be this 70 years and next couple dozen are a blip of what will be millennia of linear returns.

but Python has my libraries, and go and rust do not. >> 99% of my compute is offloaded to compiled BLAS or CUDA. types are enough. and memory and type safety are not terribly relevant for my use cases.

> why expend so much treasure to create confusion about something if there's nothing to hide? for the millionth time, there IS something to hide. classified weapons research. how can tech people be so willfully oblivious about this.

When we can define and measure intelligence, perhaps these discussions will be meaningful.

A lot of things will shake out once compute is no longer growing pseudo-exponentially.
