I was fascinated by this experiment when I first learned about it. At one point I thought of a modified version where you let the 'B' go across a event horizon of a Black-hole. in this case there would be a clear before and after

have you seen the lengths to which Sama goes to silence ex-employees using legal means like cancelling vested equity and super-aggressive NDAs. there have been multiple articles written on that. its not far fetched to imagine & definite

I mostly use it to get past the drudge-work. often I have mental blocks in doing super mundane things that 'just need to be done'. AI is good at those super defined and self contained problems ATM & thats okey for me. anything

problem is now that the election is over no one will take about voter id anymore. for a large population base the time to do it in good faith is now when you have most chance of uptake. but the way id laws get brought up is basically near t

speak for yourself, travel outside of US to see how well its implemented by even 3rd world countries like India. payment in seconds basically means you can use it (or a derivative) at PoS. that basically mean for vast majority of people who

Zelle is an alternate payment schema by consortium of major banks. It was introduced a little head of time just to avoid fednow from gaining traction. I'll bet a few years from now they'll attack fednow for being bloated and unuse

right, I see how I missed that. but the silver lining is that one outlier would have made everyone else seem very close to the final answer (% wise). this means if the professor is grading on a curve the whole class gets a 'C' exc

AI was also 30years away forever then it was not. its a function of dollar spent researching not fairy dust powered by hopes and dreams. problem is the problem seems so unsurmountable that private sector (until now) was never interested in
