I’m just surprised the alignment guy is struggling with alignment. Dodged a bullet I guess.

“AI chips are like nuclear weapons” (paraphrasing [1]) and “I should be in charge of it” (again paraphrasing) is just not a serious position regardless of intentions. [1]: https://www.axios.com/2026/01/20/anth

The resistance goes out the window the first time an American is gunned down by an autonomous system. They should do whatever possible to prevent that outcome.

Dude we had an election and this is what we’re doing. Maybe that’s not how you do things in the Kingdom of Sweden. Here it’s e pluribus unum .

Tim gave Trump the paper weight. Steve met once with Obama and complained about the fact Obama did not ask for the meeting personally, that it was too hard to build factories in America, and that teachers unions were kneecapping the America

Yeah it’s for abrupt changes in thought. It’s used in literature. Maybe you prefer organized writing.

I don’t get it. Even the Soviet Union used money. Simply paying for stuff isn’t necessarily capitalism? Or are you suggesting Anthropic should be state-owned?

Kinda the wrong venue for “fighting,” no? Congress is the place we decided for that, and we all abide by its laws. If Uncle Sam comes knocking, a fight just means you’re the enemy.

Dell ate Compaq’s lunch with a BTO model. It’s pretty clear Tim Cook decided to put the factories out of reach after that experience. Putting the supply chain close to major customer markets is cheapest but invites competition.

I’m 99% sure this article is AI generated. Regardless, people will gravitate to the tool that solves their problems. If their problem is finding a local plumber or a restaurant they like, advertising will be involved.

Freedom of movement applies to the territory of a country [1]. Sorry you learned the hard way. Historically you get rights when you pick up a service weapon. Everything else is privilege granted by others. [1]: Gilbert, Nomadic Peoples and

FYI freedom of speech in the US sense is not so much about self-expression as much as it is to prevent e.g. the King decreeing a law that “nobody can say the word ‘Parliament’”. Or for a modern example, “discussing what to do about xyz grou

Give it the problem first. Then have it generate the context. Make edits and iterate on the context. Then hit go. Finally, have it write down whatever it needs to for next time.

You completely missed GP’s point. It is very difficult to talk to many people of your generation. Flat art and flat people. Tetraethyllead may be a culprit.

Unaudited empirical evidence is easy to ignore. The problem is one of physics. It should be simple to show with napkin math.

They need recall, not precision. It’s conceivably fine if you tag 100 people as long as one of them is your guy. Also I mean you and I can recognize people we know. A surveillance camera has millions of sensors sampling every ~50 ms. It’s p

Yeah esp. the latest iterations are great for stuff like “find and fix all the battery drainers.” Tests pass, everyone’s happy.

Biomass can substitute. You have to defend it, which is difficult if rivals have petroleum. But that wouldn’t be an issue if nobody had petroleum. We haven’t burned the ladder.

There’s a flu shot for old people. It appears Moderna chose not to administer that when appropriate. Maybe technically they aren’t required to. The whole thing sounds messy but who knows.
