I think Altman is closer to a sociopath who is taking advantage of the situation, he’s the only one I cannot see as a true believer (and investors like Andreessen who are just here for the money). I believe he will just say anything to gain

Yes, the doom crowd thinking comes directly from the Rationalist community, which takes a very religious view of AGI and intelligence. That sort of merged with the Effective Altruism crowd, resulting in that whole idea that we have to reach

Yes, it’s so transparent I cannot fathom how so many people directly assume it’s the EU fault. Meta isn’t subtle at all in their lobbying

That’s not true, you’re repeating the exact same wrong statement that has been said multiple times in the comments. The EU requires political ads to be labeled and restricts how targeted they can be. There is no EU regulation forcing Meta t

It’s Meta lobbying against EU regulations that requires to restrict how targeted politics ads can be. Making it a Meta problem

You’re the one who mentioned it was in the article. Have you read that regulation? Because I did, and it’s not any form of ban on political advertising

That Coxon guy looks as delusional as the AI leadership. If you watch interviews he gave he doesn’t articulate what he’s concerned about, only sharing vague information about a supposed AI god that will take over the world, but without arti

I don’t use meta’s products. The issue has absolutely nothing to do about an ad ban. There is no ban of political advertising in the EU.

by dgellow 5d ago
The regulation asks to label political ads and restricts how targeted they can be. Meta is doing the usual whining because that touches their bottom line a tiny bit, there is nothing serious in their complaint. Political ads aren’t banned i

by dgellow 5d ago
The comment you’re responding to and that you want front and center is plainly wrong. The regulation is about transparency and restricting targeted advertising technics for political advertising. That has nothing to do with the situation at

What model did you try? Chinese models have no issues with that type of stuff

If OpenAI voids its spending commitment, the bubble has to pop. I know the market is irrational, but that would be the clearest top signal ever

No, I mean utopia. For them. A dystopia is what we will all experience, when the utopia they are pitching fails to materialize. I’m using the traditional, correct definition of the term, where a dystopia is a utopia that failed to achieve a

We don’t read a source file as a book, from the first line to the last one. A file is just a set of classes, functions, types, constants, and you generally navigate it by blocks. Splitting multiple functions, classes into multiple files jus

A few people with way to much power are building AI to achieve their utopian, sci-fi dream. A few other powerful people are using that first group to achieve their post-democratic goals. It’s the most obvious top down attempt at imposing th

If well organized the number of lines of code in a file is really irrelevant. 300-400 loc is a tiny file in any professional project. Splitting in a large number of file doesn’t magically make things simpler to manage, in fact you fragment
