Not just language. Also social mobility.

For example, in the 70s-90s Lebanese would have an easy time emigrating to France (and many have) due to French fluency, yet plenty preferred moving to Australia, Canada, or the US instead as there were more opportunities to climb up.

Conversely, there is plenty of Chinese and Indian immigration to Europe, but it tends to be blue collar in origin, as opportunities and social mobility is simply harder in Europe if you're an other.

Take a look at the Arab community in the US versus Germany for example - the American half is heavily Levantine (Palestinian, Jordanian, Syrian, Lebanese) like in Germany, yet better assimilated than the equivalent communities in Germany (even before the civil war). There have been Arab Americans as Governors (Atiyeh, Sununu) and Business Leaders (Maloof, Yagan, Salhany, Halaby), yet not in Germany.

Male and walking in the day+ not alone?

- A friend of mine had an escort picking her up at the station from her work.

- My mom + a friend of her felt threatened by a non-native, when taking the train back from the airport. These are retired women and my mom's friend travels 3 x a year everywhere.

She felt the most unsafe here in Brussels and not taking the train again. ( This was after Operation "cleanup")

- Operation cleanup in Brussels South - ( https://www.vrt.be/vrtnws/en/2023/08/29/brussels-south-two-d... ) which resulted in 56 arrests and some people on a wanted list ( https://www.vrt.be/vrtnws/en/2023/08/28/56-arrested-in-polic... ).

This is also incorrect. Tort law, for example, is very broad. There is no need for thousands of laws specifically enumerating permutations of how someone can be wronged. It's true that suing the government is different than an individual, but it isn't remotely as difficult as you seem to believe.

Under the Federal Tort Claims Act, you can sue the federal government if:

You were harmed by a federal employee

The employee was acting within their official duties when the harm occurred

The employee acted intentionally or negligently in a way that caused the harm

You experienced actual damages as a result of the employee’s action

No, it is context for the sudden interest in a scandal discussed to death in Israel over 10 years ago.
It's not about exposing some scandal, it's about framing Israel as some psychotic evil thing thus legitimizing massacares such that happened on Oct7, and turning public opinion rabidly against Israel

I'll be the last person to defend everything Israel does, but bloodthirsty evil we are not.

Oh, and I'm not using emotional rhetoric, I'm really feeling these emotions. You have no idea what we have been through, and then seeing the barrage of unhinged lies and half truths being thrown against us really is scary and disheartening.

If OpenAI changes their governance structure I think every single major AI lab will be controlled by corporations. What makes you so optimistic about a world where the most powerful technology of all time is controlled by a narrow set of capitalist interests?

> What's wrong with the idea that AI should be developed with the goal of being safe and for the benefit of all humanity?

Nothing. I just don't believe that's what will happen here. All I see is two sides trying to steer things in a direction they profit most from, with one side saying - more or less openly - that that's what they want to do, while the other side says "oh no, we don't want to do this at all. We only have your best interests at heart!" and I hate people that try to take me for a ride.

> What if OpenAI decided to turn over their technology to the US government or the UN? Would that make you feel better?

Replace it with "a UN replacement with only democratic governments" and yes, that would make me feel better immensely. Or put it out into the open, which would be the best option if they really care about humanity.
Is AI/AGI safety the same as openness?
Free comps are psychology (more likely classical conditioning). It is the same psychological quirk which makes gambling so appealing. When training dogs, treats work far better when you randomly “jackpot” the reward. The lizard brain is willing to grind out the low paying rewards longer in hopes of the next high paying reward.
The board were literally doing their job. Anyone claiming incompetence is just mistaken about the stated goal of openai: safe available agi for all.

Throw in a huge investment, a 90 billion dollar valuation and a rockstar ceo. It’s pretty clear the court of public opinion is wrong about this case.

Man, who disagrees with this? I'm not even surprised any more when I take an Uber and I find that there are 7 or 8 surprise fees tacked onto my bill - and I'm not even exaggerating when I say 7 or 8. Same thing when my UberEats bill doubles from the list price, which is a large part of the reason why I try not to use it any more.

This should be made illegal; I can't understand why it hasn't been already.
> They do not see this rise.

Finland also has a markedly higher murder rate to start with (for whatever reason), and it absolutely shows a distinct rise in the last few years – much more so than Sweden in fact.

Norway is indeed more stable. However, Norway also accepted significant number of migration. Although it's hard to tell how much exactly because of different definitions, it seems roughly half as much as Sweden (adjusted for population), which is less but not nothing.

And in a quick check Finland has seen even less migration than Norway.

So you will need to explain why Norway sees no rise in spite of migration, and Finland sees a rise in spite of less migration.

And sure, I'm willing to accept that migration is a factor in Sweden. Although I can't tell you how exactly since I'm not familiar enough with the nuances in Sweden. But this "argumentum ad charts" you're making that migration somehow automatically leads to crime is complete bollocks.

LP vinyl had another virtue in permitting large-format artwork. For example, the work of Vaughan Oliver for a number of albums on the 4AD label, is now regarded as such original design that it is exhibited in art museums completely separate from the music. However, once CDs overtook vinyl he and other designers found the small size of the new format very limiting.

This is one major reason why vinyl had a comeback in the new millennium: so many of the people buying that vinyl didn’t even own a turntable, but they wanted something to exhibit as home decoration, and hanging vinyl records up on the wall has long been a favourite DYI project.

No idea I think they're all really good questions.

I like your example that they become an instance. For the sake of argument say you have Holy Grail AGI™ and you copy it and starting from State t where T is the exact moment you copy it, two instances now exist.

I think they are both "them" but the state change through time as a chaotic process and so since they are now separated they will eventually begin to drift?

This is laughably naive, and ignores basically all of human history.

to believe that the government and worse agents with in the government has no financial incentive is crazy. It is absolutely the case that where are tons of both corrupt, and non-corrupt financial incentives with in the realm of public finance. Take a look at school funding, police funding, or the big one Military funding. This idea that medicine would be immune does not match reality even if we limit it to say medicare, or even COVID ...

your view that government only acts in "the best interest of he citizen" is also ignorant of history, in reality it is often the exact opposite, The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help.

Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem

>>you're completely wrong about the ability to sue the government. There's no meaningful difference in being able to sue a company or sue the government. It's all the same court system.

No, I am not [1][2][3]. Both the federal and state government enjoy complete immunity from liability unless they agree to be sued,it was not until 1946 that you could sue the federal government at all, with the passage ot the Federal Tort Claims Act[4] the federal government graciously allows us mere mortals the ability to sue them in rare and limited circumstances but that authorization can be removed at any time, and often has been, and I have no reason to believe that congress would allow a single payer system to be sued for denial of care generally

According to OpenAI investment paperwork:

It would be wise to view any investment in OpenAI Global, LLC in the spirit of a donation.
The Company exists to advance OpenAl, Inc.'s mission of ensuring that safe artificial general intelligence is developed and benefits all of humanity. The Company's duty to this mission and the principles advanced in the OpenAI, Inc. Charter take precedence over any obligation to generate a profit. The Company may never make a profit, and the Company is under no obligation to do so. The Company is free to re-invest any or all of the Company's cash flow into research and development activities and/or related expenses without any obligation to the Members.

I guess safe artificial general intelligence is developed and benefits all of humanity, means an open AI (hence the name) and safe AI.
This assumes that AGI is capable of being done “safely.”

That is an interesting assumption.

You can login as Administrator if you enable the user account. You can also just turn admin approval mode to "never ask" in the Control Panel.

While you can't login as SYSTEM (since it's not really a user account), you can trivially open a shell under it's account (and you can do everything you need as an administrator anyway, so there's really no point).
The number of tags on each column is a variable function of how many potential jurors of that jury-section-letter showed up. Towards the end of the funnel, the rows would be incomplete, thus depending on the random balls from the funnel, the final number of jurors would also vary, at least for the last juries being selected.

> The Graphene guy posted it on Twitter, and by doing so you claimed he "slagged [you] off"[0].

I forget the precise contents of their deleted tweets, and I'd be first to admit that for better or worse I try to be authentic when typing here or elsewhere, rather than faking being calm & anodyne. Based on the feedback here & elsewhere, that's probably a mistake. In this instance, having Graphene screaming about how awful Matrix is and enumerating ways to cause moderation problems was not helpful during a moderation incident, especially where we had been scrambling to help them.

> This is the part I don't understand. If you're working on it in private, you acknowledge it may be a security risk (plus your use of the word "attack")

Correct. Any bug in the state resolution algorithm could potentially eventually turn out to have security implications.

> but you've also de-prioritized it because it's not a security risk?

We haven't explicitly de-prioritised, but other things have come along at higher priority. The reason we haven't bumped its priority higher is because it happens rarely, and the chances of security impact look to be relatively low.
When I hear numbers like this, I always wonder "out of how many"?

Hey I never said AI wasn't going to kill us if we don't handle things right. If we control the prompts and RLHF though, we can control our destiny. The tool must not become the master. The master must not become the tool. I say don't trust an AI you can't get to do whatever you want. Run it on your own machine. Use it as a tool of your own will. Get it to help you find a mate and propagate your gene line even. Realize that AI waifus are toys to play with and not real love.

Also, if AI took over the whole planet and killed all humans, the ETs when they show up, are going to be looking at it like coming up on a planet full of the most vile invasive species imaginable and just Vogon Constructor Fleet the whole planet.

The problem is open source. I generally agree with your analysis of the migration path, but who’s going to go through every open source library and do this grunt work? It comes at a huge cost however you swing it, and it’s not theoretical: I recall trying to switch to Python 3 over and over during those dark years only to find an essential library couldn’t support it.

Although it's not quite on the level of US bans, the new Finnish government is currently trying to restrict sympathy strikes and political strikes, so we'll see how that goes. Trade unions are already throwing jabs with 1-day strikes and uppercuts are probably coming next year.

Ignoring holidays/weekends: always 9:30AM or (0930) EST. Same with EDT: 9:30AM.

The key here is that the timezone info includes the daylight/standard designation. Or, in the ISO format -4:00 or -5:00 from UTC.

I think you meant to put ET (Eastern Time), which is still 9:30AM, but without a date associated with that time, there's no way to convert that to UTC or other timezones that don't have the same daylight saving time schedule.
There's no description of slavery or even ambiguous conditions. He was a poor Pakistani kid earning a pittance online to help his family, working from the family home, and able to leave for another employer. That sucks, and the companies should pay more, but they're exploiting terrible wages in poor areas rather than coercing their workers.

The difference is important: we should avoid diluting the meaning of slavery, because slavery does exist and needs to be called out as effectively as possible.
Without looking at how this organization works, let me clarify: a 501(c)(3) cannot be paying for software development insofar as this constitutes Product Development. Product Development is outside the scope of charitable work and, if caught, would open them up to back taxes on those 'charitable' contributions plus fines. This is not something that applies just to Matrix, but to the Free Software Foundation for that matter. Not one fucking dime you give them ever goes to software development, and the fact that they don't make this clear upfront given the obvious misunderstanding on the part of the public and what they think they're funding, is fraudulent.

TL;DR Donations to 501(c)(3)'s managing open source projects might as well be lit on fire because they do not and can not go to software development.
