If it wasn't done by accident, then it was likely lobbied for by bigger tech companies that are already profitable. They stand to benefit the most from this kind of legislation by destroying all the small competition, and by being able

I don't think Google would want the PR hit for doing such things. I suspect that they even have hang-ups about training their general-purpose AIs on your private data, because they might accidentally leak some of it. A lot of their bus

If you play around with it, you'll notice that it is capable of clearly reasoning about many, many things that haven't yet been explicitly written about or created.

Hopefully that far in the future, it will actually understand coding on a deep enough level that we won't need to train it anymore.

Yes, this is what it is. I'm also not surprised that L.A. is at the top, as it is both: 1) Vast, with large roads, and lots of vendors competing to sell building materials. 2) Expensive to rent. Hurry the hell up and finish. Gotta rent

Is there some other arrangement? It was originally a nonprofit, so there might be something else going on, like board voting rights that he doesn't have to give up - or special voting shares.

Physical assets generally lose "real" value on their own too, because they degrade or need maintenance. The asset prices might go up but if you sell them to buy other stuff, that other stuff also went up in price (probably higher)

A friend of mine made https://feasier.io/ to try to at least make the search process easier. It's hard to get users, though.

The argument you linked is ignoring the fact that when you provide a bank with dollars (M1 bailout cash), it is lent out by the banks and creates a much bigger sum of M2 money (bonds, liquid assets) because of fractional reserves. Any bailo

I wasn't arguing with you at all, you totally misinterpreted my comment. SVB was insolvent due to their long dated bonds.

I believe the two words have a bit of gray area in between them, but here's how I understand it: If you issued a $100 invoice that is going through processing and will be paid to you in 30 days, but you owe someone $50 right now, you&#

I don't see why the path of AI technology would jump from 1) "horribly incompetent at most things" to 2) "capable of destroying Humanity in a runaway loop before we can react" I suspect we will have plenty of interm

Sometimes yes, and sometimes yes. I can be convinced, I just want to see the arguments.

I see a lot of "we don't know how it works therefore it could destroy all of us" but that sounds really handwavy to me. I want to see some concrete examples of how it's dangerous.

I'm curious what you think makes them dangerous?

It's the only service available that does this and you want to get ahead of it. Presumably, some competitors will show up and you should be able to switch. Prices will go down as competition pops up and they make things more efficient.

Griefing is usually in the context of a game, and griefing usually involves ruining the fun someone is having in that game. It's generally more benign than anti-semitism or promoting racism online.

It sucks that their tax burden is going to be higher on account of making all this money in a single year, putting almost all of it in the highest brackets. Unless they did some clever accounting tricks throughout the 20 years to prepare fo

No, it's almost entirely short-sighted, at least in terms of economics. First, I've never heard of anyone being forced to sell, unless there's some truly huge and necessary infrastructure development. You are generally offe

The existence of an online alternative to gold is potentially valuable (also potentially harmful but I would say the jury is still out), and it's hard to say if mining rewards counteract that.

The WHO is not really "powerful" like a nation is, as they do not have a military or enforcement arm, and they do not pass laws. All they can do is decide how their funds get spent. They are granted all these "powers" to
