It’s written in English because it’s the language spoken by the educated. My wife is from south India, and I’m a frequent visitor to India. It’s evident that Hindi nationalism is to the benefit of the north, while southern culture is slowly

The LLM doesn't take away imagination from imaginative people, on the contrary. It's a tool for the creator.

Why would there have to be a world reserve currency? Seems to me a basket of Euros, Yen and MAYBE US dollars is better than relying on the USD.

They are capable of executing in their own self interest. I doubt they have full understanding about the 2nd and 3rd order effects of their actions. I wouldn't call them stupid, but they are hardly bright.

Personally I don't agree at all that these centralized monoliths are a good thing. On the contrary, I believe it's been detrimental to the open internet and only serves to control us by the powerful. I never trusted Github and nev

I've been self hosting myself now for a couple of years(after a brief, 20 year hiatus) and it was less difficult than I though it would be. Don't listen to the naysayers.

I mean, you can get quotes from four people convinced the earth is flat and that the earth is 6000 years old. Ed Zitron is bearish on everything to do with AI. I also don't believe the ROI is great investing in OpenAI and other similar

Why would that be a legal right? Why should we hand over even MORE power to the owner class? In a fantasy world this could be possible yes.

Ed Zitron is clueless. He’s the Jim Cramer of AI. A broken clock…

Technology was not cool, it was for us the nerds. The nerds started making money, so the money people got into it. But it was never cool. Having money can fake being cool though, at least for a while. Now the capitalists who control the tec

You and I must live in parallel universes or something. You can still hail cabs off the street, it’s just that it’s an inefficient way of getting a ride. Using uber I will immediately see the price up front and I can tailor the cab to my

You only accept the risks of driving because its normalised in your community. In many communities, public transport is the norm and it would be considered foolish to hand over car keys to a majority of the population.

Gemini sucks though. Are you using the paid version? The free one that has basically replaced the regular search, is totally useless because of how shallow it searches. ChatGPT, which is usually quite reliable, refuses to answer me because

I normally research topics thoroughly, if they are important. I don't trust a single source of truth.

Not really, since any LLM will answer all those questions competently. It's a known fact that LLMs sometimes are wrong and hallucinates an answer, but this is exceedingly rare. Having access to a decent LLM is like having an expert wit

The difference between your two year old is that an LLM gives useful information. Yesterday I decarboxylated some weed buds in preparation of making a cannabis tincture using the QWET method. Curious how Claude would respond, I asked how to

It lies constantly and is only useful for shallow information. At least the non-paying version.

Yes, so have I hence why I questioned it. From the wikipedia article you linked to: "More recent studies make use of modern global circulation models and far greater computer power than was available for the 1980s studies. A 2007 study

Show me that proof please. So far the counter evidence has not been convincing. FWIW I don’t think nuclear war will annihilate us. But it won’t be pleasant.

Families with children and people with disabilities are boarded first. We live in a capitalist society so obviously there's a profit motive.

The difference between an airplane and buses and trains, is that in the airplane you are in a confined space far from the ground. Its not just about bombs.

I was shaking my head when my fellow developers, and some hackers, moved from Firefox to mostly Chrome. “It has better dev tools you see”, “it’s so much faster you see”, and a boatload of other excuses. But what about the remonopolization o

Yes, producing EVs require massive amounts of resources. Fixing public transportation in many cities is unbelievable low hanging fruit. I live in Zürich and I’ve yet visited another city with the same level of public transport(Stockholm, ma

I also don't get the Claude hype. I use ChatGPT for coding and Claude for review. Claude has just gotten annoying, and is making a lot of assumptions. Claude suggests something, then later on suddenly it's something I wanted all a

There is no way these individuals would want to be demoted to "regular citizen" in Star Trek compared to being a medieval feudal lord. You don't even have to make them emperors.
