I too think it's a distraction too but it's won't be the limiting factor. Planes don't flap their wings, cars don't have legs yet are faster and more powerfull than animals. The important part lagging is the brain.

If you live your whole life in the blue tribe, if your state is a blue tribe breaking out of it and understanding the world from the other side is liberation. Then yes after that we need a bit of both, both sides have their pathologies. We

I started and it was ad hominem right at the start. So I judged it was not worth watching the whole thing. Is there a section I should watch? What are the arguments against him? I have watched all his university class and most of his talk,

Funny, just after the all electric Optimus. For sure they have been working on this for a long time. I predict that they will also move toward neural nets for all the vision, control and understanding of the world (like Tesla)

Does the LLM get trained as the database get builded? As you train a model it should build it's knowledge database at the same time. I guess that's how it work? When an LLM get trained on next word guessing, can it search the web

It's not very convincing. JBP is an academic and yes he is a bit hard to understand, that doesn't mean that it's nonsense, just that it will take more time to grasp his positions. You can start with his university class in ps

Funny, I think is it mostly seen as the opposite. That the media and government create a propaganda narative, a fake reality we live in. The red pill has become a symbol of breaking out of all the progressives lies.

Just look at birth rate, depression, etc. You will see we are in a dead end. I don't think this law will change the trend unless there is major concerted effort. Boys have access to so much porn and gaming that they are checking out of

My suggestion is to try a religious conversion to christianity. I know it sound weird, but we all live in a story and she relive the same story over and over in her dreams and in real life. Christianity will help her make sense of what happ

I agree with you too. It's much easier to destroy and to enslave than to create something good. There I was thinking of the possible positive vs electricity cost. Yes we might doom us all with AI. I hope the good win, wild time.

My prediction: the advance of tech by AI will far surpasse what it consume in energy. To look at the energy consumption of current model is extremely short sighted. If AI create a new material, a new solar cell, advance fusion reactor is al

In my tests sqlite was around 10X faster than postgres. That mean that a single cheap server is capable of going very very far in normal web workloads. I think we often add complexity: virtualisation, cloud, separated db server, horizontal

Solar and batteries are on an expodential path. The cost is going down so fast it won't make sense to have anything else. I think that by 2035 most of the transition will be done even if we don't have major new developpement, but
