We should stop all the current Meth marketing...that'll solve the addiction problem for sure. What are all these scenarios where policy makers have absolute control of how drugs are sold and consumed? Meth is illegal, as in we don'

Thankfully those have posed absolutely zero problems so I guess we should legalize meth.

Why can "the government" distribute drugs at dirt cheap prices? Maybe you come from a country where that happens but in the US the government couldn't distribute masks during a pandemic. Plus cheaper, easier accessible drugs

I'm sure the marketing for legalized Meth will be more responsible (just like it is for everything else that isn't good for us). What is the compulsion to find some tiny fragment of an argument to go against the obvious? Maybe i

Charlie isn't as effective of a philosopher as Warren(Charlie). When Warren cites Charlie he tends to filter out the more impulsive or outdated ideas. No filter Charlie tends to get cringey at some point.

Did AI write this? Rigid, poorly written, makes every mistake your high school English teacher told you to avoid. "I think.." followed by conjecture with no supporting evidence. Example (includes misuse of the colon): > I think

Whenever there's an obvious conflict, assume it's not enforced or difficult to litigate or has relatively irrelevant penalties. Experts/lawyers who have a material stake in getting this right have signed off on it. Many (if n

Totally agree. GitHub is definitely a more core service that more people rely on than ChatGPT (plus if you're like me you just use Claude until they fix the issue).

Managers feel obligated to support the 'future' to show investors they're cutting edge so they express some innovation in the "pipeline". I'm sure you'd see the same stats for any trending tech development

Cruise can't do 1x the work of a human. I don't think using imagination-tech statistics makes for a credible argument.

There can exist an inherent delusion within elements of a company, that if left unchallenged, can persist. An agreement for instance, can seem airtight because it's never challenged, but falls apart in court. The OpenAI fallacy was tha

Whatever it is, Open AI need to disclose the reason soon, otherwise speculation will undermine the whole AI market. However big his transgressions may be, it's actual impact is finite, while the speculation can be infinite.

Because it costs too much. They're already losing money on every speaker sold (Google/Amazon anyway), plus the infrastructure required to maintain service. Adding an LLM is a huge expense for an already failing form factor.
