And too stupid not to move out of the way. I know friends who are great cops and they do not out their lives ahead of their suspects.

Nice you have the courage to say it. The democrats need is to move to the right and become more like the stupefied Republicans.

I think so much of our intelligence is based on feelings and awareness that those factors cannot be ignored. Those capabilities may actually reveal themselves serendipitously just as things like language evolved out of humans sharing attention with continued efforts in AI.

Current LLMs are missing the ability to gain AGI and there are perhaps hopes that World Models or NeuroSymbolic will take us there. I think machine consciousness is possible and ppl are working on it. It is crucial for neuroscience and AI to continue to evolve together.

It is a very intelligent and extraordinary essay. Too bad we need more like her.

Scaling has not proved to be the magic answer anyway but it sure helps stock holders (who will also benefit when the bubble bursts!). ChatGPT 3.5 is pretty much equal to 5.2 in most task ppl are using it for. If we did not have so military build up we could use the money for medical research.

Too many ppl are not willing to acknowledge the danger of capitalism (politicized and strategically subsidized and protected for the wealthy) as we practice it. We do not need the next round of large data centers to take advantage of the current state of AI.

Amen to that “good news”.

In the very least let professional groups self insure. Works very well for malpractice for Physicians groups. Unfortunately guess who paid the money to disallow this?

This will be an incredibly difficult gap to close. Science is helpful in an example of kind people who are led by the belief that an individual’s status is almost entirely outside some kind of personal agency or will is also helpful.

It is also central to Christian ethics. Your free will and your guilt before an insulted Holy God. Most liberal thinkers allow a modicum to almost a majority of a person’s worth existing outside their own agency. Meeting them to become less judgmental and more benevolent.

Could not agree more. It is just stunning to the core to hear Trump’s racist and demeaning rants and see his uncaring stooges. DEI gave opportunities to ppl who more than deserved their positions and were being denied by prejudice it did not promote unqualified candidate but literally replaced them

God yes!!! Hope they room for the rest of the cabinet and republicans in congress.

China does have some hideous policies but in general is going in a more sane direction than the US and a more responsible manner that the US. Some of that is because the US has dropped the bar so low everyone looks good. Also with such a complex environment to understand you cannot be so ignorant.
