LLM assisted search is now one of the best ways to look into dense and obscure topics though, particularly given as google search quality has degraded. All it needs is for you to read the sources. Source hallucination has also come down tre

it seems to dislike biological chats. Rejected me on a chat that I am running with 4.8 as well on a rare condition I have.

75$ a month for a cell phone? I pay 18$ monthly for mine. This is Southern Europe where the average monthly wage is 1000$. I dont know who could afford yet another 75$ expense.

Can 5% of the population even pay for that? Some kind of huge increase in prices for compute and inference and companies maintaining large bills for AI assistants for key employees or teams (1000-2000$) seems most likely to me.

This is nowhere near the plane of possibilities, unless you assume the system is completely incapable of self correcting.

by kranke155 4mo ago
Its not. I’m happy we had this conversation. I respect your attention to detail and fastidiousness.

I knew this would be the conclusion. Again - good luck. You are always right. If you’re right and everyone else is wrong about hundreds if not thousands of studies, then you should be writing a book, not comments in HN. We started at “some

We seem to have reached, maybe, the point where more human beings is not necessarily a positive. Capitalist society through supply and demand seems to be signalling this - we seem to be running out of transformative capacity to keep buildin

Why are you concerned about something that’s so far away from your lifetime ? There are so many problems - this one might even be self correcting - yet you seem prone to seeing it as an imminent catastrophe where you have to focus your atte

Yes of course. It’s lockdown and now no lockdown. Could be anything. All observational studies are wrong. The stated limitations are fatal flaws. You heard it here first in HN. All medical research is fatally flawed, says user “timr”. Good

You’re right. I mean that’s certainly interesting, I just keep struggling with the question of - why is this a disaster? Seems like it’s only a disaster under a narrow set of conditions - capitalism, economies that need to grow to survive,

What disaster is this that you foresee ?

I’m not even sure you understand how evidence based medicine works. Afaik evidence based medicine ranks mechanistic analysis near the bottom of the hierarchy — below controlled trials and systematic observation. I believe that ordering was

by kranke155 4mo ago
Yeah fair so what. The argument is - our current economic system can’t handle it. Well then that’s an argument for changing it.

Those are just hypothesis. Here’s ankther likely hypothesis - isn’t this is a mega fauna arriving at capacity?

by kranke155 4mo ago
Neither the fall in birth rates nor its rise is intentional. I struggle to understand why people think a mega fauna of 7-8 billion people takes intentional decisions. An individual takes intentional decisions. Humanity … not so much I think

This seems to me like a performance at this point and not serious analysis. It’s true I conflated this with long covid. It’s not a long covid study. I am tired and done with this. You made several errors in this comment. Your biggest error

Has any organism ever extinguished itself as you describe ? This whole human extinction thing… isn’t that catastrophising? We are a 7-8 billion individuals away from extinction.

by kranke155 4mo ago
How can you say it’s not temporary if it’s just started?

I don’t care whether I’m satisfied - I care whether the client is. And does this get me faster to it? Probably yes. In a narrative film or a project of my own I’d care. In a project for hire under a tight deadline? Why would I? The delivery

its unlikely that will happen. If you read Arrighi, his hegemonic cycle narrative says that the interregnum between two hegemons is decades of chaos as the system reorganises. We seem to be heading for a US to China transition. The last tra

You are just ignoring the evidence, being unscientific, and unless you work for a top medical lab somewhere, plain arrogant. The UK Biobank study scanned participants before and after infection with matched controls. The difference is measu

a large organism (human populaton on earth) reaching equilibrium and ceasing to grow does not equal to human extinction... it far more likely is just a temporary contraction that will then reverse when the conditions are set for it.

Then you should fund it. The entire field is to my understanding absolutely starved of science funding. There are two fairly strong clusters of findings that are objective, repeatable, and consistent. And that is the autonomic testing in lo

Some speculation is the pill. Some kind of unmapped interaction.
56.
by kranke155 4mo ago
Maybe tell this person to see an autonomic dysfunction expert.
57.
by kranke155 4mo ago
There are increasingly positive markers - autonomic dysfunction in previously healthy people, measurable small fiber neuropathy, and auto immune dysfunction in largely unmapped parts of the immune system.
58.
by kranke155 4mo ago
Leading research into Long Covid is already doing this. You’re seeing neural and auto immune clusters gathering around certain immune dysfunction and previously rare diagnosis like Small Fiber Neuropathy. Autonomic dysfunction is being meas

Ok. I thought that was well known.

I work professionally in commercials. You literally wrote the very solid counter argument into your own comment. For interviews, this saves hundreds of hours. Giant amounts of social content are now interview-like, including podcasts. Your
