Interestingly the Gemini summary is nowhere near as good. But when it is... how helpful will that be! So many things with a very good summary will save so much time / avoid having to dive into unless truly in need of the details. But t

So if one causes $1B in damages one has to pay a fine of $10M? Similarly for other "catastrophic" damages? WTF. I am very AI pilled but this is no regulation at all. Suppose OpenAI pays their engineers $1M a year. In what world d

Right it’s more that it’s odd that there’s all these assassinations of conservatives (UnitedHealthCare etc). And previously there were many assassinations of progressives. I think it’s just the leaders in a dominant part of a force in soci

Looking at recent events through a historical lens: the 1960s saw the assassinations of MLK, RFK, JFK, and Malcolm X during a wave of progressive change. Today’s assassination attempts and targeted violence seem to follow a similar pattern

This was a good interview. The points may seem basic but so is wisdom. Anyway it should not be flagged. We’re flagging articles like this because what - lack of use of sentence case? Because harder questions weren’t asked in some online use

I agree on the surface. But where do we draw the line of choosing what we think (in our very limited human understanding of future events) is better for a child? Soon it’s GATTACA. As an extreme counter example consider if you could choose

I think the timelines are more like half that. Why? The insane goldrush when people start using autonomous agents that make money. Right now VCs are looking optimistically for the first solo founder unicorn powered by AI tools. But a prompt

It’s a tool or technique. Fear of the technique is governed solely by the fear that one will not be able to use the technique better than without the technique. And yet humans always rise to the challenge of using techniques effectively. Or

Tech wealth and its hubs on the west coast explains some things. But i think it's racial diversity more than people think. Would you pay 2x for a property if in certain minority groups to avoid racial slights? Many would. That powers d

Imho you are (1) trying to be original on HN (going against the grain) and (2) being dismissive of people’s genuine interests in an area - gonna lead to defensive downvotes. I agree with the responders that this is a common fallacy (good in

+1 with greater power comes greater responsibility. Power doesn’t mean lack of craft. Just different things to craft. Eg we don’t hand-roll assembly anymore. Still have to know when you need to dive deep and how to approach that.

Hot take: based on how fast models are accelerating and replacing large parts of the development process (my two cents in https://x.com/TomHarada1/status/1926193211678023953 ), I think more and more you want to wor

I think it’s more like AI empowers and 3x’s the creatives that learn to use it. In all fields where highly intelligent auto-complete is useful it replaces 2/3rds of who you need to hire. The key is to learn to use the tools. As it has

Indeed, you only have to simulate what one person perceives and where they explore, etc. One person's conscious experience in theory should be able to be fully simulated with very little information relative to the complexity of matter
