I made exactly this point at the inaugural Portland AI tinkerers meetup. I had been messing with large document understanding. Converting PDF to text and then sending to gpt was too expensive. It was cheaper to just upload the image and ask

SSA is a representation of closed Cartesian categories that looks like normal code. Closed Cartesian categories model computation. You don't need SSA and modern compiler frameworks like MLIR make better choices that still mostly use SS

Inequality is a real problem, but America is not that unequal today compared both to its own history as well as the world at large. I mean this is like saying famine is an issue. Yeah it can be and it is in many parts of the world, but not

Well you have one party demanding adherence to their political norms or else. And then the other party that claims anyone who's done better than anyone else is necessarily immoral. It's a lose lose situation. And the are the Ameri

All of these are biases that relate to intelligences of a particular sort. Incredibly dumb automaton-like life-forms also seem to 'want' to own things. Why on earth should an AGI be thought to require the same sort of 'desire

There is no reason to believe they will need anything of the sort other than our biased human perception of the thing. AI models could just as easily claim that humans need the ability to function call via MCP to do real cognition (tm). If

No we cannot because such things require restricting the freedom of others and you yourself cannot feed the world. However you can commit to not interfering in the lives of all eight billion people. It's actually really easy if you put

Freedom from interference. Hunger is not of human origin, thus no human can guarantee you freedom from hunger. This is a religious desire. On the other hand, humans can guarantee their own non interference

Okay and what are we doing for that ? We are turning off dams in the PNW. China has successfully reduced energy costs, partially by using solar. I say just do what they're doing. We are at the point of playing catch up.

by anon291 1y ago
Solar may be intermittent but tons of electrical usage can be made intermittent thus freeing capacity for non intermittent uses. I'm so tired of these arguments. Trump claims to want to bring back manufacturing. Manufacturing is materi

I addressed this in another comment. Unlike many states, Mississippi does not require teachers to pay dues to the union (California for example, does). Mississippi has a low rate of teachers union membership as a result (only ~36%). Mississ

MAE is a wholly different beast than teacher's unions in most states. Mississippi does not require teachers to join the union, thus the union needs to compete to attract teachers. Thus, it is incentivized to actually do stuff. Usuall

by anon291 1y ago
Teachers unions are political organizations that lean left. They are never going to want to get behind anything Mississippi does. Their sole purpose is to siphon off as much public funding for their members, not to teach children. In fact f

It's probably not a good education. If your kid is in an average public school they were probably not taught to read phonetically. Unless you as parents taught that separately, all these kids are handicapped.

It's declined because a generation of students was not taught to read because teachers decided that phonics was a conservative dog whistle. To not be associated with George w Bush, they failed our children. There's really not much

Rubbish. Ai has been used for many years in factories and modern AI will be even more useful. The issue is that most people aren't going to be the target of this sort of AI advertising and also that this takes longer than making a chat

Printing money to hand to retirees would not be popular. So instead, it's framed as a financial stabilization measure.

Of course they will. The main investors in these high-risk ventures is government defined-benefit pensions. There is no way government will let its own pensions fail. If you look at the entire market you will find that the private sector ac

The issue is this: the main driver of demand for higher-than-market returns is government pensions, and these cannot fail.
