Power consumption per unit output of valuable work matters. Sure, AI is powerful. But can an AI burning X MWh of energy accomplish more valuable work than the number of human brains sustained by the same amount of energy? I'd be interested in how that actually balances out. The human brain seems much more efficient and collectively this adds up.

>Abstract; In 1992, a mental-models-based survey in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, revealed that educated laypeople often conflated global climate change and stratospheric ozone depletion, and appeared relatively unaware of the role of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions in global warming. This study compares those survey results with 2009 data from a sample of similarly well-educated laypeople responding to the same survey instrument. Oh my God the effects on my life are palpable, a mental models based survey. You have successfully convinced me to start panicking. Even more a 1942 polish freedom fighters eye witness testimony?!

The problem isn't technology. It's what we do with it. China has chosen to use much of their wealth to raise people out of poverty and create entire cities full of tens of millions of people living modern lives and things like a nationwide high speed rail system. We've chosen to allow a few people and groups to hoard all of that money and do nothing valuable with it.

It's what's working currently, because it's like cellphone AR and everybody has a cellphone, except, with the headset, you have the cellphone held up to your eyes. HoloLens AR is the superior path.

not in itself, but depends on the use. There are websites and books being created on various subjects that are written entirely by AI.

These can be dangerous at worst, giving people wrong information that could be disastrous (eg medical information, disaster mitigation, etc.)

Nitpick: a "language model" models … language. If a model automatically improves your photos or generates a new image, *it's not a language model*. If you see "a language model" outputting or modifying an image, that's usually because the language model is part of a larger *system*, which may contain another sort of model. For example, if "ChatGPT" generates text and images, the text will be generated by an LLM (for ChatGPT, one of OpenAI's GPT models) but the images would usually be generated by a latent diffusion model (an image generation model; for ChatGPT, one of OpenAI's DALL-E models). The latent diffusion model would be prompted with text generated by the large language model, but the diffusion model isn't directly *part of* the large language model—they're just both *components* in a larger system glued together by other code.

Didn’t the NCAA just change the rules to make sure students make money off image and likeness in the NCAA games that are about to start getting released again? That’d be wild to have a 2k league paying players to compete and also paying licensing fees to the athlete players being represented on the screen at a paid event. I imagine it to be similar to restrictions on showing non-public domain movies in public settings that require licensing fees to be on the up and up, but I don’t really know the specifics. Glad the players are starting to get paid though. https://youtu.be/IWoP81YO3V4?si=Bv-WBWwko3T1a4jm

That’s every company though. Video games, toys, tv shows, they all profit from minors wanting the content.

That's the thing that's so interesting to me about this type of writing that I've seen more and more of over the last few years. Writing one or more grammatically correct sentences with correct spelling, and then mixing in one or two abbreviations that don't save any real time (or even add time like this case). It's not like the old style of writing in the 2000s where abbreviations were used very, very heavily due to texting limitations (and typing quicker in games) and general time saving benefit of abbreviating as many words as possible, which seemed supplanted by grammatically correct writing due to the power of autocorrect and autocomplete on smartphones. This instance though (and many similar ones) is a style that puzzles me because it doesn't seem to want to leverage the benefits of either fully realized sentences or abbreviating. Too few things abbreviated to save any real time, but including odd abbreviations makes the otherwise grammatically correct writing less readable and understandable.

You have to understand that according to hype, Second Life was supposed to replace web browsers. There was a huge push to embrace a new 3D, explorable version of the internet, and all of this started disappearing once it became clear that it was more cumbersome than a traditional page but without much extra benefits. It's also worth noting that Second Life still exists 20 years later, and a huge part of its user base is and was always just there for sex content.
