You're thinking about this all wrong. Just step into this cranial MRI scanning booth to livestream the structure and composition of your skull straight to the cloud, then we'll fire up 10000 agents to find the perfect cap for you.

The evidence is the history of the sun rising since time immemorial, as well as the science of physics and cosmology that models the sun's motion with respect to the earth.

This is olympic level mental gymnastics to justify believing things without evidence. The double negative with the word evidence in scare quotes is chef's kiss.

It's incredible to me that every single time there's a new model people scream "singularity" from the rooftops and every time they are wrong. This is an impressive result, but there is absolutely zero evidence of "t

What the voters want is of minimal importance. There are near zero politicians that want to break up big tech, and absolutely zero that would be able to actually achieve a break up if they tried. You can see my reply to a sibling comment wh

Yes, this is actually a reason why an AI executive could be a formidable alternative in theory. The CEO is ultimately an employee of the board, and managing the CEO with respect to the board's oversight and interest is a somewhat adver
