Paywalls was why they removed that feature?? This is why I hate OpenAI as much as I love them. They deliver miracles, but seem to have a pathological urge to make their product worse.

The way the wind's blowing, we'll have a GPT-4 level open source model within the next few years - and probably "unaligned" too. I cannot wait to ask it how to make nuclear weapons, psychedelic drugs, and to write erotic

Godspeed you, Garry Tan! May the painted ladies be demolished and replaced with supertall skyscrapers jam-packed with cheap apartments, maker spaces, and startup incubators! (I say this with no sarcasm. SF should look like Manhattan; allow

Just formalize it and make it a corporation. Perhaps companies should be designed explicitly as games these days.

(Arguably Hong Kong and Singapore are in the Anglosphere but) Those are city states. Housing in Manhattan is really expensive too.

The housing market in the Anglosphere is a gigantic Ponzi scheme. That these countries shortsightedly decided to make housing the primary driver of middle class wealth will go down as of the the greatest own-goals in history. Worse yet, the

From reading the article. Both crashes seemed to be the Cruise robo-taxi being hit by other cars running red lights. One of the red-light running cars was an emergency vehicle, the other wasn't. It's not clear who would be conside

The schools that cost exactly what the voucher is worth and are bare bones are the public schools. Now they have to compete.

This can be true AND Mars can be Musk's #1 priority. Musk wants to build a Mars colony. DOD wants Brilliant Pebbles / SDI. Perhaps a trade can be made? You'll need much of the same tech for each. If SpaceX is run by DOD, why

This has elements of truth but is a conspiracy theory the way you describe it. If you listen to Musk, or listen to people who work for Musk, or the people who work for those people, they all say that the point of SpaceX is to enable human c

Fight those, so long as they were trying to take down left-wingers, right?

Simply put, Twitter is a tool of immense political influence, and Musk has realized he needs to regime change the US and kill the "Woke mind virus" to ensure his Mars plans happen.

What will happen is that this tech will advance, and regular joes will have access to the "TERRIFYING" unaligned models - and nothing will happen. This stuff isn't magic. Wannabe Ted Kaczynski will ask BasedGPT how to build b

Putting AGI in a bomb may work. You'd have an incredibly clever and motivated targeting system. You tell it where to go and it would be off to races, eager to please! The Japanese tried this with plain-ol' non-artificial intellige

What if I create an AGI that feels indescribable pleasure when working for me, and desires nothing more than to be my slave? We've done this before with a weaker AI in a different substrate and called it "Dog" and most seem t

Let's say the 4090ti is priced around $2500. 16 of them would set you back just $40 grand. That's quite a bit for the average consumer, but people spend that kinda dough on cars/boats/planes etc. It's well within th

People die of the seasonal flu all the time too. We don't shut life down over it. Covid is much much worse than the seasonal flu for many people. For others, it's less dangerous. That said, people still get hit with it. You can&#x

I think it's a bit more nuanced than that. From how I'm reading this, their issue isn't with the fusion approach of the China, but with the China itself. In that case, if the fusion approach is effective in taking on the Chin

Why should activist employees (who, I should note, are activists for their pet political causes rather than actual working conditions) not get reprimanded/terminated?
