OK, this is just ridiculous now. Cut it with all this "all you need" crap. I'm only commenting on the title. I like their work.

Nah, I think that's a bit of a cop-out. Capitalism heavily incentivizes competition at the detriment of everything else. You can talk about moral duties all you want, but in a hyper-competitive environment, if you don't do the thi

The Catholic Church has at present no answer to that question. The contemporary political-economic stance of the Catholic Church is based on economic liberalism and capitalism and maintaining a just balance between capital and labour, as in

1) Definitely NOT happening. In fact, everyone is working on autonomous drones right now. 2) LLM based systems don't have any internal logic. That will just vomit some slop that rationalizes every constrait you try to bind them by and

If you can't fight them, join them. That's completely meaningless. Of course everyone will be doing their best to try to be the one who is AI-augmented rather than AI-replaced, but the end effect is still a far more brutal job m

Political and economic ramification aside, if we truly create ASI, that severely reduces the value of humanity. We essentially give birth to our enslavers and eventually humanity will be second class on this planet. How is that something to

That's what I'm saying. It's a misdiagnosis. Whether or not they have tantrums should not be a factor in whether or not they are high-functioning or low-functioning.

What's more plausible? Did they cure low functioning autism in two years? Or did they simpily miscategorize the kids and the kids grew out of their diagnosis as they matured?

One scary aspect of drones is that they can loiter around an area. Unlike shelling or traditional missiles, you can spam an enemy city with drones and they can remain operational and waiting, until people emerge from their bunkers. And soon

I wonder if hiring is a big factor here. I presume, all the really good systems+parallel programmers would rather gain more experience on NVIDIA hardware than AMD, so given the choice, they'd go with NVIDIA. Does AMD do enough to win t

IMHO, social media itself is not the issue. The issue is rather, why are teenagers glued to their screens? The answer is because they aren't doing something else that is social and physical. So if you ban their access to TikTok or what

TPUs are systolic arrays right? So does that mean that Google is using a hetreogenous cluster compromising both GPUs and TPUs, for workloads that don't map well or at all on TPUs?

Besides the argument above, that an AGI powerful enough to replace 99.999% of humanity won't be controllable, there's also the economic argument: corporations, executives, all that means nothing if 99.999% are unemployed. Our econ

Point is, if an AGI becomes powerful and capable enough of replacing 99.999% of humanity, the likes of Sam Altman and Elon Musk won't be able to control it.
