you're being down-voted since I guess you hit a chord with some people. twitter is absolutely a dumpster fire and at this point they should be happy if they survive. forget about the valuation and try to help it survive.

Lol. 95% of people out there don't understand what a neural net is. It's all a magic box. In cutting edge research there's probably a few hundred people in the world and the rest of us are in for the ride.

This conversation is rarely in good faith. AI will replace jobs is code for "we'll pay you less and you'll be happy to have a job. in fact, we could replace you but we are sooo generous!!" It's all about leverage.

One thing that stuck with me since the early stages was the remark that if by looking at it after it's over the measures that were taken don't look like an overreaction it means we didn't do enough. My guess is that we'l
