Then there's really only "not".

If you require perfect, 100% soundness in all circumstances, then nothing is sound.

(Probably. We have things that we thought were sound, and later proved were not, so if you start with the list of things now that have no known holes, that's the upper limit of things that are possibly sound, modulo future holes.)

If you seriously try for perfection, you can sometimes get pretty close. But if you insist on perfection or nothing, you usually get nothing.

I was expecting this to be "person who expects to make enormous sums of money from AI thinks AI is a great idea", but somehow it was worse. For instance, I did not expect it to explicitly call for a new cold war against China that pits their authoritarian vision for AI against a completely unregulated, corporate profit-driven vision for AI. The lack of self-awareness there is mind-blowing.

The author also thinks that wages have grown rapidly over the last few decades in proportion to labor productivity (!!!), that outsourcing and automation have turned out to be great for everyone, that AI replacing existing labor en masse would immediately and obviously result in more and higher-paying jobs, and that concerns about rising inequality and billionaires sucking up all the new wealth are literally Marxism and should thus be dismissed outright. (His links supporting this mostly go to conservative think tanks and Wikipedia articles on economics, in case you were wondering.)

Meanwhile, the upsides of AI are described using language like this:

> Every child will have an AI tutor that is infinitely patient, infinitely compassionate, infinitely knowledgeable, infinitely helpful. The AI tutor will be by each child’s side every step of their development, helping them maximize their potential with the machine version of infinite love.

> Every person will have an AI assistant/coach/mentor/trainer/advisor/therapist that is infinitely patient, infinitely compassionate, infinitely knowledgeable, and infinitely helpful. The AI assistant will be present through all of life’s opportunities and challenges, maximizing every person’s outcomes.

Which (taken literally) is too optimistic for Star Trek, much less real life. Viewed through the lens of Silicon Valley venture capitalism and its products, it is terrifyingly dystopian.

I'll leave you to read the part where regulation is literally a reenactment of prohibition for yourself.

With all the straw-manning, it didn't even touch on more realistic problems like effortless, undetectable cheating on school homework or the proliferation of circular references.

In addition to the simulator / SDK, I'd recommend also building your apps with iPhone/iPad support because the codebase will be 99% the same and you can get try out how it works in "real" AR instead of a simulated environment.

That twist in the last section ...
Never have new "technologies" been regulated "on release" by any government agency, i believe credit cards took ~20 years.

The SEC here is acting perhaps the fastest ever to the development of a new financial instrument.

The howey test was always clear to everyone invovled. The whole "SEC hasnt said anything yet" is a line used by liars to cover-up and distract from their patent fraud -- which takes place, not coincidently, off-shore. Every investigation so far has yielded plenty of internal chats to the effect of 'lol this is illegal lol lol'. No one here was in the dark, that's why everyone has redflags out-the-wazoo.

The background historical context here is also that gov cannot been seen to stifle new tech, and has to "give it its fair shot" absent regulation. Or else be blamed for its failure.

I think it's frankly obscene after the fraud-after-fraud-after-fraud that is the entire crypto system, that any body would pin anything on the SEC.

This is yet another lie designed to distract form the last 13 years of failure -- all the crypto system has done is breed massive amounts of fraud, money laundering, ransomware and the most industrialised grift in human history.

The SEC has not failed here one iota in comparison to this industrialised con.

It seems they were describing the culture, not the clothing, as “toxically masculine.”

> When a user adds a website to their Dock, Safari will copy the website’s cookies to the web app. That way, if someone is logged into their account in Safari, they will remain logged in within the web app. This will only work if the authentication state is stored within cookies. Safari does not copy over any other kind of local storage. After a user adds a web app to the Dock, no other website data is shared, which is great for privacy.

This seems like a strange decision.

1. Auth with local storage can be quite nice if you don't need to send the cookies to the server on every request.

2. This will lead to different login states in the browser and in the "app" which is not what I would expect and can be inconvenient if you open links to that website.
That’s fair, I’m not trying to be argumentative, normally I would agree with you on the AR applications of medicine.

I am certain the SPAM, low quality tooling, and shitty users were the problems. There is no pleasing everyone sure, but there is also no winning even accepting most folks, like yourself, not only won't understand but don't want to, when mixed with the barrage of "can I shill my junk here?"
My response is an attempt to summarize lobster-pain-experience info I just gleaned in this thread from a much more thought-provoking and lengthy article already linked to in another comment called "Consider the Lobster" by David Foster Wallace.

http://www.columbia.edu/~col8/lobsterarticle.pdf

Lobsters definitely feel pain at least as a stimulus responding to extreme heat.

Lobsters have nociceptors, special pain-receptors that are “sensitive to potentially damaging extremes of temperature, to mechanical forces, and to chemical substanceswhich are released when body tissues are damaged.”

Humans have similar receptors. Consider if you touch an extremely hot stove and remove your hand before you even realized what happened. That (temperature) pain stimulus is sent to your spinal cord (not your cortex) and then responds by moving your hand before you are consciously aware (through the cortex) of what is going on.

Lobsters do not have anything like the cortex which is involved in pain interpreation for humans (and also pain supression like in extremely traumatic events where a person doesn't feel any pain immediately after losing a limb).

The lack of a pain suppression mechanism is a little scary to think about in the context of being boiled alive, but this could potentially be because lobsters' experience of pain is so radically different from our own that they may not even have use of a pain supressor.

There are interesting anecdotes about people who received frontal lobotomies experiencing pain as a neutral experience that is neither bad or good. As in they feel pain from, but it is not perceived or interpreted as "bad" by them.

Also in general, lobsters are unusually sensitive to temperature among invertebrates, responding to temperature changes in lab studies as small as 1°, and their seasonal migratory patterns also seem to highly motivated by finding their preferred temperatures.

If you drop a lobster in a container of room temperature sea-water, the lobster just kind of sits at the bottom looking for the darkest most isolated space if there is one (normal behaviour) vs boiling sea-water you will notice lobsters trying to use their claws to not be fully submerged, push off the lid, etc... in the 35-45 seconds it takes for boiling water to kill them.

p.s. I hope this response is useful, I wrote it partially to let the mentioned article I just read sink in for myself.

Forward-pass only doesn't mean it's faster. It converges much slower than even SGD. It is a memory-time tradeoff, but that's it.
Every video I've seen, too, has been from some sort of electronic sensor. The US Navy was working on Project NEMESIS at least as far back as 2019, which sought to (and likely did) develop the means to spoof electronic signatures.
I agree there's a strong element of misplaced anthropomorphism. But the issue isn't even that LLMs are (themselves) a threat to humanity, or that we have any reason to think they are "conscious" (in a human, or even animal, sense). The reason for concern is that the emergent behavior we're seeing from a mere token-predictor should give us serious qualms about blindly pursuing the creation of alien intelligences, which are highly capable of unintended consequences precisely because they are neither human, nor conscious.
> Microsoft did not respond to a request for comment, but Xbox boss Dave McCarthy said in a blog post... the data was “never used, shared, or monetized.”

Future news, Microsoft gets a fine (more like a rounding error in their books) because turn it out they shared that data with advertisers and claim it's due to glitch. Dave McCarthy wrote a blog post saying "Oopsie! I'd like to remind you that Microsft is committed to users privacy, for real this time, looking forward to seeing you again soon"

If you're interested in using React-style frontend programming in Python but want an experience / API closer to that of React, I recommend checkout out Reacton [1].

Similarly to this library, it gives you a `@component` decorator that allows you to create components out of functions. But it also:
1. Includes all existing React hooks (use_state, use_memo, etc) -- so you don't have to learn new patterns. I believe this results in a bit less magic (and so easier debugging) than just using raw variables.
2. Works with ipywidgets, so many existing data apps can be ported over very easily -- Jupyter users celebrate.

I'm not associated with the project, but I know the maintainers (creators of Volia [2]) and they are honestly excellent. I haven't use the project in production, but the getting starting guide is pretty compelling.

> That said, isn’t the point of war also that it’s horrible and barbaric? If war isn’t that anymore, won’t it be much more frequent and casually started as a result?

Yes (usually), to the first question. The second begs the question though.

Wars are destructive and enormously expensive. Only a tiny fraction of human leaders wielding a disproportionate amount of power have the agency to start wars, and they do so in order to pursue specific (but varied) objectives. Since the cost is high, no one does this lightly (even the "crazy" ones, because they would already have lost power if they weren't smart and calculating).

AI may provide avenues to enhance the efficacy of wars. It may also provide avenues to enhance other strategies to achieve those objectives. In all cases, we can expect AI will be used to further the objectives of those humans with the power to direct its development and applications.

It is therefore ludicrous and self-interested speculation to claim that AI will reduce death rates. Andreessen signals this with the preface "I even think" so that he can make the claim without any later accountability. The reality is, future wartime death rates may or may not decrease, but even if they do, we likely won't even be able to credibly attribute the change to AI versus all other changes to the global geopolitical environment.

> what if he keeps it a secret from his wife

I don't think you can keep that level of non-attraction a secret for very long.
The two possibilities I can see for your alternate take is either:

Placing suffering as the absolute centerpiece of morality and then basing all your conclusions on that.

Or an argument to "common sense" in that most people will tell you causing suffering is bad. Therefore it's bad.

I don't see either of these as being great arguments.

> In fact speciesism is illogical

Why? Most of it is perfectly logical. Pigs aren't humans. It's not illogical to treat them differently from humans in very substantial ways.

Also basically nobody says "we can kill pigs because I don't feel bad when I kill them". It's almost always "I do it for the meat".

And if you watch how we treat animals we largely differentiate them based on their functional differences. Even where you get weird cultural things like India not wanting to eat meat - that originated from the need for milk, fertilizer, etc.

The only weirdness you'll see is if you challenge people on it from an empathetic standpoint. People are socially wired to say there "good people who never would made an animal suffer" so you're running into social norms more than anything there.
It's illegal in the US for any percentage of tips to go to owners or managers.

Now, it's the US, so wage and tip theft is abundant, and owners can pay the ~$2/hr "tipped minimum wage", thereby indirectly profiting from tips, but it is illegal for owners or managers to receive tips.

It's not so much that scientific experimentation isn't justifiable, it's just that the sheer scale of suffering involved in it is staggering. Scientific experimentation requires basically a near-constant holocaust of rodents. The animals aren't even raw materials, they're basically stationery.

Yes, I agree, in general.

But to be completely fair to him, it's Jeff Geerling.

Being hyperbolic here, but practically all the content in the Pi (and Homelab, and several other subreddits) is either directly his or in some way derivative of his work. He has just put in that much time and effort into this space.

So the same post that got deleted would have likely been reposted, with less context, minutes later. Likely multiple times by multiple different people.

I believe the electrostuff in the brain is determinstic, but we exist in a parallel dimension which is able to bias the movement of any of those interactions.
