Interesting point. Never thought about AI slop being fed by SEO slop.

You make it sound like a common occurence in Europe. For my country (Germany) it has been only 1000~ buildings in total since the 1970s and I am pretty sure 90% of that has been in Hamburg in Berlin. So no, it's a very unlikely explana

Experts are often worse than laymen in predicting macro developments because they are narrowed by their focus and biased towards it. Tetlock's Superforecasting is a great book on this. Some condensed source I found on the topic: https

Finally something positive about the UK. Usually the crowd will come in with pitchforks swinging everytime there is something about UK housing or politics going wrong.

Thanks for the link, this is super useful. I will probably use both valetudo and openmower soon! Is there anything comparable for security cameras?

But what is scarce now, really? We are just moving up Maslow's hierarchy and strive for more abstract concepts like power, self-actualization or recognition. How would AI provide those to us? Our self-image is linked to other's pe

If you're really interested in that and not just trolling, these are the measures used by the study: After adjustment for sex, BMI, hsCRP, and sCD163, semaglutide significantly decreased epigenetic aging: PCGrimAge (-3.1 years, P = 0.0

So this "study mode" is just a different system prompt for the model? Not sure why they would add this if you could create this as a custom GPT yourself. Just marketing...?

Why would they need to "re-scan the same books over and over"? It's as simple as they can use the books to train their AI if they bought them.

Will this be the way of working for the next 10x engineers? Or will all of this be available for more inexperienced developers? Anything seems possible at this point.

I didn't know this story, but thanks for pointing this out. It's scary how people in this thread talk about hallucinogens like they could not ruin your life. Citing Sam Harris: “Ingesting a powerful dose of a psychedelic drug is l

During the last century, we have been handling systems that are so powerful they exceed what we could understand or control. This trend seems to accelerate. At least they (US govt) are making an effort to control this proactively.

Well-written but not really anything new or groundbreaking. I think most people are well aware of this kind of idealization/perfection that prevents progress.

That's quite well-known already. The real question here: how do we stop these shifts from happening?

Seems like a provocative piece that stirs up some discussion, which is good. But I get what you're hinting at. Humans are GI and obviously exist. So it's trivially disproven by counter-example.

Not sure why this is getting downvoted. According to the above definition, LLMs are level 5 consciousness, since they have a theory of self and others.

Higher consciousness does not imply cooperation, even though we idealize it to do so. Cooperation is another dimension - it is easy to imagine a being that has a higher form of consciousness but is not interested in cooperation or does not

This article provides a good overview over application of modern drug development, Syn Bio, Biotechnology, etc., even about the state of the drug development industry, but it does not talk about anything new or groundbreaking.

I mean, what is consciousness, really? Is there really any qualitative difference? It feels like something that emerges out of complexity. Once models are able to update their weights real time and form "memories", does that make
