> I'm sorry but your speculation is pretty far off base and isn't based in fact. So you claim VW is not selling the same engine to different market segments, and limiting it through software? If they do, why are they doing it?

For me it's still Trello. I used to have a .txt file, and once went back to it. But somehow, having these task cards is easier for me.

This confirms my suspicion that we are not at the exponential part of the curve, but the flattening one. It's easier to stay close to your competitors when everyone is at the flat curve of the innovation. The improvements they make are

I remember a unix command back in the 90's that would list random words that NSA would intercept. You could then feed it to email footers. ChatGPT thinks it was 'spook', but can't find any references. Anyway, it seems we

My first reaction was the same. I have a small indoor quadcopter with 2 main modes: freestyle (like a helicopter), and an easier mode that keeps the drone hovering. My first thought was, why not use the easier mode (press forward to go forw

In a sense it's already happening with the Shahed drones. Maybe not smart AI, but the end result is still the same: you have no clue where they will end up.

Since I can't seem to add an edit to my post, here's a realization: My 2035 prediction actually seems pretty optimistic. It was more than 20 years that we haven't seen any big AI revolutions, so 2045 would be more realistic.

I learned neural networks around 2000, and it was old technology then. The last real jump we saw was going from ChatGPT 3.5 to 4, and that is more than 2 years ago. It seems you don't recollect how much time passed without any big revo

I would say billionaires create value just like any other entrepreneur, but billionaires take their profitability to the extreme. So in that sense, I agree they start to lean over to exploitation. It's up to political structures and la
