By defining any ethical statements as pathos you are attempting to force medical practice to be assessed in a logical frame. It is not valid to do so. It is an interpersonal endeavor with ethical requirements.

I would say the statistical argument is the null argument. To invalidate it you should instead need to come up with a reason why in a billion trillion structurally relevant constructions we must be the only one where life emerges.

How is it not? Other than extremely anthropocentrically? There are at least 200 billion trillion stars in the universe that we are aware of. That is a number beyond our comprehension. Stars generate elements. Elements form molecules. Life i

To do this analysis on an hourly retail cost and an open weight model and infer anything about the situation at OpenAI or Anthropic is quite a reach. For one (basic) thing, they buy and own their hardware, and have to size their resources f

This misunderstands complexity entirely: The complexity of the task isn't a factor - it's complex to generate correct machine code, but we trust compilers to do it all the time.

Completely absent is quantity of jobs. If e.g. ml engineer job postings go +40% from 200 to 280 and writer job postings go -50% (over two years) from 20000 to 10000, then we have a better idea of the impact. Without those data this report i

I don’t see how they have it wrong? Canaries are lightweight and shallow once they exist. Building a canary from the ground up is still beyond us, but if you don’t want to kill an actual bird that is pretty much the only way to go.

It seems insane to try to connect a twenty year shift in one global variable to one causal factor. This approach is why the social sciences continue to struggle to create understanding. It is all they can afford to do, though. That said, 3)
