Americans need to start advocating immediately for UBI and universal healthcare, but instead they're doing fantasies about smashing the robots. It's so frustrating.

Janet from The Good Place is, at least as of S2E8, a surprisingly accurate metaphor for state of the art AI systems a decade later

In the name of human meaning, they propose a static future of endless toil, suffering, and death. Where nothing changes, and we collectively decide that it is over. Where you expect to die in the same world you were born in. To achieve this world, extreme draconian measures are needed, of course.

The website is "satirical", but it's violently anti-technology. My problem with all these movements is that they have no proposition about the future. Their view of the future is bleak and dark.

I and the other physics majors at my college would pretty regularly use Wolfram Alpha to confirm basic math stuff, and I'm really really happy no one was yelling at us then about how stupid we all were for using it because it "couldn't actually think"

AI skeptics seem to simultaneously believe 1/ new datacenters are useless because we'll get better GPUs in a few years 2/ new datacenters will massively exceed demand 3/ Moore's law is going to hit a wall 3/ inference costs will remain constant or increasing

It's weird to me that there's a meme that Kojima would hate AI. This is more AI maximalist than what George Miller was saying last week.

another thing people don't realize when they fantasize about "the AI crash" is that you're going to see a *lot* more slop and harmful use of AI whenever the big companies do crash, because the crash would drop GPU prices drastically & make cybercriminals etc. training models much, much cheaper

One of the first randomized controlled trials testing whether GenAI boosts revenue, not just productivity.

It does.

A large, mature international ecommerce platform, using older GenAI tools found most of them, from customer service to marketing workflows, led to large and significant revenue gains

This is gmail-style autocomplete hooked up to a BCI. It is the least scary thing ever.

It's gross to push moral panic freak-outs out on the back of someone who is obviously deciding to benefit from improved accessibility here.

Hi hello did you know that Elon Musk's third Neuralink patient (previously nonverbal) is "getting help from Grok" to communicate

and I hope -- I REALLY HOPE -- he's not stuck in his own brain listening as a robot talks for him without his input because this, to me, would be worse than death
This patient’s Neuralink brain implant gets a boost from generative AI
A patient who types with his brain thanks to a Neuralink implant is using AI chatbots to speed things up.

Bro kinda crazy how all this shit is just RIAA anti-piracy talking points.

No one can "steal" anything that isn't scarce. This is a fascist mindset.

AI user: "i like AI art and i have used it to make myself some nice things"

AI haters: "oh, so you're stupid, poor, weak willed, moronic, dumb, and probably not even a human?"

you'll never guess which one of these is widely considered to be the woke position

the fact that blocking a user hides their reply for everyone, not just the user who blocked them, seems like an extremely toxic pattern for collective sense-making.

1. user makes [xyz claim]
2. another user corrects them
3. blocked, hidden

it should be explicitly shown as hidden instead
