Only meaningful competition does. For example, competition with Comac is not meaningful due to politics, but competition withing the country with Douglas and Lockheed was.

But they live in China. Eventually the trade war with China fails (unless there's a real war) and then Tesla is toast.

Does accelerometer-based location algorithm integrate the acceleration readings to get the phone displacement? Is it a part of the phone operating systems ?

My previous response was refuting your statement: "The CEO of Nvidia is a smart guy, he's pushing the hype train because his business is riding the wave"

I think you're viewing it from the programming bubble. He's not that vested in AI success for programming. Even if AI code generation completely failed, NVIDIA's business is still more than OK because LLMs have a lot of other

Computer chess has been failing for 30 years, until it didn't. Try winning a Go or a chess game against the computer now. There easily might be another architectural find lateral to LLMs that will 10x the code generation quality.

For me, the words of NVIDIA CEO weigh more than MuratBuffalo blog, due to their respective track records. While AI may not replace hard-core cryptography or kernel coding, it will definitely replace a lot of Upwork that goes into say restau

It also excludes a lot of people from entrepreneurial activity: if you are over 30 or have kids you better have health insurance, and thus work for a big corp instead of bootstrapping a small business. My SOs individual health ins policy we

The current trends of centralization and control involve restrictions on freedom of movement, making personal cars one of the pressure points. In socialist countries, ordinary citizens take the bus. Rest assured, Macron et al. will continue

"Shares of The Boeing Co. fell less than 1%." They are too big to fail. So they will fail together with the entire state. 4 domestic aircraft manufacturers of the 1960s (Lockheed, Douglas, Convair, Boeing) is now one.

And so is economic growth by printing USDs. Let's see which one collapses first.

Number one reason is lack of meaningful competition (political buying decision Boeing vs Airbus) and industry monopolization. In the 1960s there were Douglas, Convair, Lockheed, Boeing domestically

Very interesting, 2012 marks an inflection point, a change of the regime. I noticed that at that time the discourse shifted from the founder's concerns to that of the employees and became less interesting for me.

Not sure how you drew that conclusion, from the original write-up: "The median wage of those who left the city in 2022 was $49,000, which was 18% less than those who left in 2021. Among those who left the city in 2022, 64% were non-Whi

Since the end of the USD as the world reserve currency is imminent, the wisest thing US government can do is promote and favor Bitcoin. It's better to have a world reserve currency that no one controls, than CNY.

It may seem counterintuitive, but in 100 years, the West may economically choke under the burden of overregulation and central planning, while China, tired of the CCP, could become a free enterprise economy.

Do you see a way to simplify this? Say you want to engineer useful bacteria or something, and avoid dealing with the large human genome and regulation?

Sutskever says there's a "phase transition" at the order of 9 bn neurons, after which LLMs begin to become really useful. I don't know much here, but wouldn't the monomodels become overfit, because they don't h

Ilya won't stick around for long probably. It will be interesting what he can do independently. Probably not a lot.

You are forgetting about the end of the Moore's law. The costs for running a large scale AI won't drop dramatically. Any optimizations will require non-trivial expensive PhD Bell Labs level research. Running intelligent LLMs will
