Hm, two questions: - Who is paying for surveillance? - To whose benefit is it used?

ha, i immediately think alert from a three letter company's on-call app. Now that's unsettling and straight fucking offensive!

From the article. >Thought-to-text, aka telepathy No, that's not telepathy. I'd leave the term alone. Consider it to be reserved for... well... telepathy!

Let's suppose an AI and a Human wrote a book each and it's the same word-for-word. Will the effect of the book be the same on readers? From a perspective of classic materialism the effect should be the same. But what if the though

I think it's reasonable to expect amplification but I am not sure how reasonable it would be to expect sustainable amplification. I feel that AI removes the meaning from work and with that gone we eventually start loosing the talent. A

Let's not assume that 6 figure salary is close to 999,999. In reality it's closer to 100,001. And when you factor in inflation and increased housing cost the comparison starts to differ greatly. Millennials have it pretty tough.

Post scarcity society needs different operating principle. It will be a bumpy road to that after capitalism collapses.

Given that becoming an expert in a field takes 10000 hours and that no field can be assumed to be safe from AI who will want to invest that much time into anything? Who will want to invest 10000 hours into anything that can be taken by AI?

They should really follow up with a similar policy on food. At a nearby whole foods a large portion of produce goes to waste. It's heartbreaking to see.

Excellent point! I remember seeing a story shared by AMS RDS on linked-in that basically said... "Now with predictable pricing" Huh?

The latest status update says things will be back to normal for everyone on the 19th. This spells for me a busy on-call and work over the weekend. It sucks! You think there will be lessons learnt from mistakes? Not a fucking chance! Busines

Technically, there could be a test. It could just be wrong!

This ^^^ amplified by indifference and not giving a shit caused by "AI Adoption". There is literally no fucking reason to try to improve your skill. Any IDIOT with AI will do an OK job. And no one is shooting for better than OK.

Yes and my first ask is to stop the wars.

by nullorempty 3mo ago
So you have no objections to wars. I see. News lie regularly and I happen to hold the opinion for a while. Studies also lie, another entity that lies regularly is government! All of them! When you live long enough you learn to trust your ey

My reaction is to the discussion more than the the article. Many have noted that LLMs are relatively good at writing code because they learned from all the code and other material, such as books, written before. But let's say that we n

I think eventually things will work themselves out, but our immediate future appears to be bleak. The elites, including political elites, use AI to acquire more wealth, to become more efficient at war. They already don't give a flying

Oh boy :) I think that would come with IERS Tax.

That's an excellent take. Unfortunately, verified devices will close that loophole.

Some of the titles aren't translated - a cursory search did not turn up a downloadable version of the Bull's Hour, but search flibusta - titles are in russian but thanks to AI ...

Since we are on the topic of russian literature I'd definitely recommend reading something other than the usual suspects Dostoevsky and Tolstoy. One of my personal favourites is Bulgakov'с Master and Margarita and The Bull's

Russians consider their profession a calling and try to be the best at it. Makes big difference when it's calling and not just-a-job. I dunno what attitude russia's gen-z holds towards profession but in my time it was definitely c

Not only that. Corporations are filled with excellent software developers from Russia who did not go to any specialized schools or graduated from prestigious universities.

I spent nothing on US election this year and nothing in all previous years. Partly, because I am not from US, but largely because I have no interests to lobby! Are elections that run on donations can be considered truly democratic?

It could lead to amazing advances in the distant future but in the near future it just means finding unwilling donors fast! Our society once again is not mature for such technology
