If AI becomes harmful we will likely see it in motion and be able to respond and adapt to it. We will live in a world where the humans on the internet are far far far more dangerous than any of these machines. The harms here are relatively

They kind of did. Mammoths and such existed for a very long time and it seemed like life on earth was big, not as big as in the time of the dinosaurs, but a lot of creatures were getting quite large akin to them. Humans then left Africa an

I don't really speak out of concern of the well being of those in research, but for the health of the system as a whole. The fact it's a monster that eats people alive to me is an evidence that the whole thing needs to be torn dow

Science as a whole has died a hard death. All reward and prestige of being a researcher has been lost and the people in the study have a slim chance of being able to work with their degree. Which I understand is about the opposite of what t

Audio input screwed up on that one. They aren't threatened by changes in the service economy. They'll be threatened by competitors that give all their data to "Open" AI, and use AI tools to increase productivity.

The service economy has finally started really impacting the big companies in a substantial way it seems. What's Apple going to do? As long as chat GPT has the most users and the most momentum, apple is losing a competitive advantage

We have many bigger issues than farm space that we need to solve before vertical farming makes sense, if this is your reasoning. Human population is already declining with no external factors like famine pushing us to do so. We aren't

> They're mostly the same country they were 10 years ago. Oh, I strongly agree with you there. This was obvious in 2013 as well. Xi and his arrogant actions on the world stage have been a big help in creating opposition though.

Taiwan lacks nukes and China is rapidly building out it's nuclear umbrella. I believe they absolutely intend to try to use that same nuclear threat to enable their invasion of Taiwan without American intervention.

All of these constraints cost far less than the cost of bringing enough light and the materials required to build a vertical farm. The techno futurism of stuff like vertical farms is one that sounds great on paper, but fails hard due to pra

> Build as many vertical farms as are needed In this case I'd argue that number is zero. Regular farms are altogether superior and vertical farms would increase food prices, reducing availability in the end.

The EU is not within their right to regulate products made by Americans companies sold to Americans. If we want to talk imperialism, this is exactly that sort of overreach.
