Is there some database where you can see predictions of different people and the results? Or are we supposed to rely on them keeping track and keeping themselves honest? Because that is not something humans do generally, and I have no reaso

The whack-a-mole thing is a huge "this thing is not useful" indicator to me, and I am really confused how other people don't see it. Ok, there's an agent and the agent is able to figure out stuff and do stuff on its own.

Protonmail works in the sense that I can receive and send emails, it's always up when I need it. I don't know how much of the spam is not arriving or being filtered.

So what would be the status of this code? Nobody holds the copyright for it, so anyone can use it in any way and nobody can sue for anything. It's not GPL, but it sounds pretty open source to me.

This reflection seems very unlikely to be authentic because it is full of superlatives and not a single bad thing (or at least not great) is mentioned. Real organizations made of real humans simply are not like this. The fact that several c

I hope nobody categorizes LLMs, compilers and interpreters, optimization problems, games, simulations and many other things as CRUD. Neah, you basically could not.

If <something> then it's inevitable, otherwise it's not? What exactly do you think "inevitable" means? If it depends on something, then by definition it is not inevitable.

I work at a company with hundreds of thousands of employees, and they're mandating the use of AI, monitoring it, and pushing like crazy. Like their life depends on it. You get threatening emails if several days pass without you using A

That's why there's no such thing as regulatory capture or monopolies or rent-seeking, right? They just don't happen in capitalism, because they are inefficient.

True, but the large companies are incentivised to not see or accept that. I really don't think Jassy is thinking that he wants Amazon to be smaller so it has lower coordination costs. It will also have a smaller market cap, you know?
