It could be an a vs b thing if a effectively finishes the conversation before b gets going. A lot of areas won’t make sense to insure due to storm risk well before they’re at risk from literal sea level risk.

Citing that the average poor person is, say, African, is not useful when discussing a specific poor area in, say, Asia.

I’m gonna guess that sea level rise will end up being one of the lesser problems introduced by climate change

Nobody is saying it’s broadly ok to fake images otherwise. It’s pretty fucked up to, say, inject tragedy into narratives by showing victims as emancipated when they’re not. Or altering racial profiles to fit a narrative. It may not pop out

I have suspected that I have seen some of these for Palestine in recent months. Not saying this has any implication on the broader reporting of it but… shit we’re really kind of screwed if media starts portraying everything via fictitious d

Eh. I think fluff. A lot of nostalgia pieces point to one specific thing and try to imply that everything used to be as good as that one thing. Wilder’s Wonka was great. But psychedelic weirdness was never the norm. Children’s shows have pr

The snark isn’t lost on me but scarce resources and lack of access to capital is why we have an army of people building ad tech and not things that improve society. “I think your idea is wrong and your lack of financial means to do it is pr

You could probably argue that a model updating its parameters in real time is ideal but it’s not likely to matter. We can do that today, if we wanted to. There’s really just no incentive to do so. This is part of what I mean by encoding emo

That is an emergent property that the system would learn to navigate the world with as a function of sensory inputs and “emotional state”. Video game bots already achieve this to a limited extent.

The framework is easy. The implementation is hard and expensive. The payoff is ambiguous. AGI is not a binary thing that we either have or don’t. General intelligence is a vector. And people are working on this.

That’s actually exactly my point. You cannot fake it till you make it by using forever larger context windows. You have to map it back to actual system state. Giant context windows might progressively produce the illusion of working due to

That is more or less the concept I meant to evoke by updating an emotional state every tick. Emotions are in large part a subconscious system dynamic to organize wants and needs. Ours are vastly complicated under the hood but also kind of s

I disagree. Personally I found the definition of a game engine as ``` while True: update_state() draw_frame()``` To be a profound concept. The implementation details are significant. But establishing the framework behind what we’re ac

There is not strong consensus on the meaning of the term. Some may say “human level performance” but that’s meaningless both in the sense that it’s basically impossible to define and not a useful benchmark for anything in particular. The pa

Flight leverages well established and accessible world engine physics APIs. Intelligence has to be programmed from lower level mechanics. Edit: put another way, I bet the ancient Greeks (or whoever) could have figured out flight if they had
