"What is your biggest bet about the future of A.I. in five years?"

the only sensible answer is by @melaniemitchell.bsky.social :

"A.I. won't have cured cancer or solved physics. Also, no one will consider the ability to converse fluently a definitive sign of intelligence."

happy black history month. here are some passages from james baldwin’s notes of a native son that stuck with me when i read it a few months ago.
This is why his history and his progress, his relationship to all other Americans, has been kept in the social arena. He is a social and not a personal or a human problem; to think of him is to think of statistics, slums, rapes, injustices, remote violence; it is to be confronted with an endless cataloguing of losses, gains, skirmishes; it is to feel virtuous, outraged, helpless, as though his continuing status among us were somehow analogous to disease-cancer, perhaps, or tuberculosis—which must be checked, even though it cannot be cured. In this arena the black man acquires quite another aspect from that which he has in life. We do not know what to do with him in life; if he breaks our sociological and sentimental image of him we are panic-stricken and we feel ourselves betrayed. When he violates this image, therefore, he stands in the greatest danger (sensing which, we uneasily suspect that he is very often playing a part for our benefit); and, what is not always so apparent but is equally true, we are then in some danger ourselves—hence our retreat or our blind and immediate retaliation. Our dehumanization of the Negro then is indivisible from our dehumanization of ourselves: the loss of our own identity is the price we pay for our annulment of his. Time and our own force act as our allies, creating an impossible, a fruitless tension between the traditional master and slave. Impossible and fruitless because, literal and visible as this tension has become, it has nothing to do with reality. In our image of the Negro breathes the past we deny, not dead but living yet and powerful, the beast in our jungle of statistics. It is this which defeats us, which continues to defeat us, which lends to interracial cocktail parties their rattling, genteel, nervously smiling air: in any drawing room at such a gathering the beast may spring, filling the air with flying things and an unenlightened wailing. Wherever the problem touches there is confusion, there is danger. Wherever the Negro face appears a tension is created, the tension of a silence filled with things unutterable. It is a sentimental error, therefore, to believe that the past is dead; it means nothing to say that it is all forgotten, that the Negro himself has forgotten it. It is not a question of memory. Oedipus did not remember the thongs that bound his feet; nevertheless the marks they left testified to that doom toward which his feet were leading him. The man does not remember the hand that struck him, the darkness that frightened him, as a child; nevertheless, the hand and the darkness remain with him, indivisible from himself forever, part of the passion that drives him wherever he thinks to take flight. This fatalistic indifference is something that drives the optimistic American liberal quite mad; he is prone, in his more exasperated moments, to refer to Negroes as political children, an appellation not entirely just. Negro liberals, being consulted, assure us that this is something that will disappear with "education," a vast, all-purpose term, conjuring up visions of sunlit housing projects, stacks of copybooks and a race of well-soaped, dark-skinned people who never slur their R's. Actually, this is not so much political irresponsibility as the product of experience, experience which no amount of education can quite efface. It is, as much as anything else, the reason the Negro vote is so easily bought and sold, the reason for that exclamation heard so frequently on Sugar Hill: "Our people never get anywhere." "Our people" have functioned in this country for nearly a century as political weapons, the trump card up the enemies' sleeve; anything promised Negroes at election time is also a threat levelled at the opposition; in the struggle for mastery the Negro is the pawn. It is inescapable that this is only possible because of his position in this country and it has very frequently seemed at least equally apparent that this is a position which no one, least of all the politician, seriously intended to change.

AI won’t have cured cancer because it isn’t a thing with agency and cancer isn’t a single disease but there are a whole lot of drugs in pre-clinical and early clinical stages that have been developed using AI models

I've had personal experience at all ends of this, and I can tell you: the outcome of a biomedical scientist telling people "we've cured cancer" is not neutral curiosity.

And 90% of bad press coverage I've seen began with irresponsible academic communication.

YES, absolutely. "Oh, but this horrible person might cure cancer!" Consider that maybe the child they so abused that said child can't function as an adult could have cured cancer too? You cannot let some what hypothetical maybe-future harm overrule REAL, RIGHT NOW harm.

predicting haruki murakami’s next novel
Marie ranting at length on Discord: you know what. at this point i'd welcome getting wrapped up in some murakami-ass bullshit i'm gonna read coordinates on a possum skull and there i'll meet a manic pixie dream girl who lives in a cave and runs a podcast about lichens. she'll disappear mysteriously and i'll need to team up with a guy who dresses like a wizard to leave offerings in fairy rings until one of them opens a portal into a world where cancer has been cured, but i was never born, because my father pursued his ambitions of studying chemistry instead of meeting my mother, who became a popular tv psychic but is troubled by visions of me she keeps seeing in tv static the cave lichen podcast girl is, of course, a tulpa created by my sister who lives in a jar in the attic, who i always assumed was nothing more than a myth my father told me to keep me away from his collection of haunted numismatics

…like the doctor who just cured pancreatic cancer in mice in Spain. Celebrate progressing our human race past the atrocities and hatred. TikTok showed me that I am the same as the person in Saudi Arabia who hates going to school, or the child in China pranking his dad (p5).

Many media headlines in the past week about "pancreatic cancer has been cured".

The problem with many outlets, althought not all, is that the scientific paper is often not linked to. This would allow those experienced in reading scientific papers the required context.
