Perhaps we should page Dr Goblin.

The irritating part of all of this is that after 20+ years we finally have a (very) few companies that sell machines with Linux pre-installed. The only thing I ever learned from installing OSes is that I hate installing OSes.

I would love to boycott all software that accepts garbage [1] contributions, but I do not think that is practical. I think I might have to settle with just refusing to use it myself, and wait until everyone realizes that gen AI is just a bad idea.

Note 1: Satya Nadella said he did not want people referring to AI as "slop", so I will grant his request and refer to it as "garbage".

I think it's hilarious that his twitter handle has "real" at the front. Who would want to pretend to be that guy?

The Facebook CTO is one of those fake lt Colonels the DoD commissioned a while back.

This guy was CTO while Facebook/Meta was burning all that money on the Metaverse. Now they are, as Mr Gerard put it, pivoting to AI, and burning millions there. Those Meta stock options must be really good to work for someone as dumb as this guy.

Plus: He went to Harvard. I guess those schools will take anybody.

In hindsight, it is pretty funny that he called his fund "Situational Awareness" and still lost money.

Maybe someone should start a hedge fund and call it something like, "Maybe This Will All Work Out LLC." That way there is no disappointment.

Here is the first sentence: "You can see the future first in San Francisco. "

I feel like I already know everything I need to know about him.

The AI shills would say: Are you still using the models from six months ago? Because the new models are sooo much more powerful.

So far, all of these "model breaches containment" stories have been fake.

But if one actually did, than that would be a signal to drop AI and nuke data centers from orbit.

This is not the genius-level marketing OpenAI thinks it is.

I am tempted to put "doing the bidding of the Antichrist for over 20 years" on my website. Or maybe even my LinkedIn profile.

“I can’t tell you how many billionaires and CEOs have called me in absolute tears about their lives being destroyed by one article.”

I would pay to see a billionaire or CEO in tears over an article.

And if stopping them were that easy, why hasn't it happened yet?

PL talks about the way Trump fights wars as if it comes out of some military doctrine. It doesn't. Trump is stupid, doesn't plan ahead, and is easily distracted. That's it. It's not N-dimensional chess. He's just an idiot.

I also tried reading the whitepaper, and could not get past the first page. I just kept thinking, "that's not what happened", and after about four or five times of thinking that, I just bailed.

The big one was that non-reversible transactions are supposed to be cheaper, yet Bitcoin is a lot more expensive than what we have now
