Fair enough, the trust is certainly a stronger demonstration of commitment than most can offer.

The market itself is also arguably a massive form of AGI that well-predates the concept. I choose this interpretation when watching Terminator (any of them really). TBF this doesn't imply anything about OpenAI's quest to make a ch

Maybe it's just iframes that are the issue but they were a devil and a half to get working in chrome (or blink ig) without relying on third party cookies.

Yea, and to be fair the leagues try to compensate for this with varying degrees of success by regulating how much you can spend, subsidizing poorer teams, etc. But ultimately you run into issues like the colorado rockies where the owner jus

Is "fake" really the right word here if people get the flavor, nutrition, and texture they want? I don't really give a damn if they figured out a way to bypass aging to achieve this.

Content for kids strikes me as something you'd curate around an experience and value system you sell to parents. I can't imagine anything else would work very well. Granted, this doesn't mean we shouldn't try to build fi

Perhaps if liberals read non-liberals they would have acquired an imagination in the last two hundred years. Obviously that's far from the only path forward outside of your sick fantasies.

Ah! I just skipped the article. The paper is much more straightforward.

You're quite right; I think the "rationalists" tend to be a little more cynical (or realistic, as most would probably put it).

What's the point without a political pathway to remediate anything? We haven't done basically anything to fix what we were complaining about 50 years ago. At least in prison they'll feed me or kill me, two things they'll

It's not even a coherent concept the way westerners use it. I would be much happier if we called it "acceptable speech" or something to acknowledge you can't call for dismembering your Tutsi cockroach neighbor. Idk why,

I don't really care, tbh. There are better rights to fight for: food, shelter, education, healthcare. If said freedom of speech had been to be used to fight for materially meaningful rights, I'd be a big fan. Most Americans never
