Maybe if tech bros hadn’t eroded every last bit of trust someone would listen to their warnings but currently they sound indistinguishable from their usual marketing gobbledygook.
Are LLM’s plateauing and causing a major economic crisis when the bubble bursts or will AGI kill us all? Both seem fun but personally I’d prefer extinction just to be rid of those goddamn human shaped turd bags.
But they do though. You almost can’t avoid reporting things like a murder or a burglary just for insurance and necessary paperwork.
I think it’s mostly about the imbalance. If you struggle with mental health and have very limited capacity for social interaction then you can’t have a bunch of close friends because friendships require effort to maintain them.
In general this is an issue of our time because we have to deal with a lot of information and communication in our day to day life (specifically work) so there’s not much juice/battery/spoons/whatever-you-want-to-call-it left at the end of the day.
My parents would always tell me about how much harder their schedules were when they had to feed cattle and clean barns all day but those are physical tasks. They’d go socialize after all this work because their brains were craving it and ignoring some sore muscles is easier than ignoring a sore brain.
It’s kinda silly to call any complex political party “the good/bad guys”. Compared to the current administration of the US Obama looks like a shining knight on a unicorn. Geopolitically they did some damage too though. Libya says hi. All in all it’s just too complicated to break it down to good/bad.
Either way this is just some guy who’s speculating about AGI and it sounds like the usual AI company ad headline about how scary good and important their technology is. Is it though? AGI by next year, bro, we swear. Just one more datacenter, bro. China is winning the race, bro, please. A few more trillions and we’ll get there, bro.
You had me for the first half
Jim surviving the AI layoffs
Crazy knife lady took out a banking executive? oh no
Talked to an autistic student today. PC specs are a great interest of his. I told him how a bit more than 10 years ago I was building a PC and didn’t want to pay 300€ for a gtx 970 because that was just too much money for a GPU. Got an R9 280X instead because that was a bit over 200€. My entire build cost me 800€ back then. Good times.
One crypto mania and an AI bubble later and you’d be happy to get a midrange GPU for 600 bucks and you’d suck some dicks behind a dumpster to get 32GB of DDR5 RAM.
Well first of all it’s just easier storage for mid-high amounts of cash. It’ll take almost double the volume to keep the same amount in 50’s and takes twice as long to count so if someone does pay for something expensive in cash, 100’s are a lot more practical.
The other aspect I wouldn’t neglect is inflation. Today’s 50s will be 100s in a few decades so those bills will become a lot more relevant.
He does anthropomorph a bit much. I don’t think AI agents “get desperate”. They just keep hacking away at a problem and we can’t keep up with it. There’s no way of fully containing/monitoring them because the whole point is for them to figure out things we can’t.
I’m not necessarily worried about a singularity or some underground agent civilisation but random collateral damage from AI agents messing around seems almost inevitable.
Also kids sometimes run fast and fight back.
“This cooperation allowed us to reach our first $1 trillion funding goal that was necessary to reach the next step of our early access journey.”
I mean we once had a student argue that it should be allowed to send nuclear waste to “some African shit hole country” to get rid of it. An AI won’t answer this appropriately because it isn’t allowed to start an answer with “listen here, cuntface”.
If it calms you, I think it’d be hard to start a fire with a 3060 even if you wanted to.

Guys I see 100 billion potential children of mine being born in the next year if my entire sperm count is utilized.
Those aren’t letters. They’re symbols and they mean hope. [dabs]

I like that you guys assume after I wake up as an attack helicopter I’d just go to my regular day job and then get overwhelmed with my new grocery bill.
Oh no, I can’t fit through my apartment door and my rotors keep shredding through my jackets.
Mother and child walked in path of bullets
A Mother and her son died in the emergency room after they walked straight into the path of fired bullets. The 92 year old gun owner mixed up the trigger with the safety of his assault rifle and will have to pay a fine of $200. His lawyer announced that they will appeal the judgement, arguing that his client needs the money for new ammunition.
