> there should be a focus on supporting positive online engagement I feel like this is the key for fighting all negative behaviors. Fill the time, burn the energy, with better stuff so that nobody has any left for the bad stuff.

It's almost as if making companies responsible for performance of their stock backfired to the tune of "a measure that becomes the goal ceases to be a good measure".

Intelligence. It's not an exact analogy, rather something to consider ... How much momentum does a body have? You can measure it easily, just measure the velocity and the mass and multiply. What exactly did you measure? What is the mea

The point is, defining it like that has merit proven in decades before AI.

There is a good definition of intelligence. It's what intelligence tests measure. If you define it like that, you can make harder tests, but as long as both humans and AIs can attempt to solve them we have measure and something to comp

This is a great idea. You could put a lame server in your kitchen with 16tb spinning rust drives and just wait for the next openai failed experiment at containment to drop in.

It's for your benefit not mine. You can guess if I meant sinfular or plural you and decide if it matters.

I use you, me, us interchangably because I don't think it really matters for anything and I don't need to reaffirm my individuality with such words.

I feel as if I just read someone claiming that consciousness doesn't exist and humans are biological automatons and their behavior is simple function of their biology, past experiences, inputs and state. Technically true, but not reall

The role of the customer in the market is to choose the best quality for the lowest price. If you take anything else into consideration you are a bad customer that damages the market.

It doesn't have to be exactly correct. It just need to express intuitively the most common use(es?). Aggregate, accumulate, combine for example.

I think people see dating as a subpar form of activity that fails to deliver meaningful relationships. The fact that the contact is initiated on the apps is somewhat secondary.

Yeah, we, the software developers. Any recordings should be kept in something akin to password manager. Heck, all of my data in any app should be kept in something like that.

Language evolves with use. As more of the users are bo tlike you the langugae might feel like it's evolving from under you. It just sounds bad, like GenZ English in the ears of someone over 40.
