  1. God said "Let there be science".
  2. I can see that being true too.
  3. He ain't wrong. Who do you think created you? Lol
  4. Capital "S" science is God.
  5. You should see Dave's debate vs Dr James Tour. Dave is an unhinged scoundrel. Dr Tour is a worldclass chemist.
  6. Chris?? You mean Graham Hancock? Graham Hancock's theories are bad and almost certianly wrong. I can agree with Dave on that. Dave is very, very trapped in the pre/trans fallacy. He is incapable of distinguishing genuine mysticism from religon and New Age beliefs.
  7. Yes. But of course a few people are working on entirely new tech. We just don't know when it will be viable. Ilya Sutskever is working on an entirely new approach that isn't just another LLM. But who knows how long that will take? Could be never. Could be both. I think it needs to be entirely different from LLM, using no training data. It needs to be an abstract reasoning model. Not based on pattern-matching human data. No way. AGI is not a hardware problem, it is a software problem. We don't need more datacenters. My own reasoning. But there are AI reaearchers who explain why LLMs cannot do AGI. Yann Lecun is one example. He is Facebook's top AI scientist. He says no way can LLMs do AGI. He is correct. But I am not just believing him, I am using my own understanding of the issue.
  8. Antipsychotics often have negative side-effects so people often don't want to take them. They are stuck between a rock and a hard place. The cure is sometimes worse than the disease. Obviously not in this case.
  9. Doctors usually like being doctors. If they didn't they would have quit long before.
  10. @Bjorn K Holmstrom Sorry to hear of your difficulties. Have you considered switching to an oral antipsychotic and then just not telling your doctor you're not taking it? Then again, if you don't need the medication then rightly speaking you should not be getting disability money. That money is intended for people who are truly sick. You want it both ways: not to be counted as sick but getting money allocated for sick people.
  11. That's why tournaments should exist. So that unqualified people don't fight above their level.
  12. Note that the actual actor of Hank Moody is a miserable sex addict. These things are not coincidences.
  13. I did. See the Kriya yoga mega-thread.
  14. Cyberpunk was not a flop. It made like a billion dollars.
  15. I should fund my whole operation using money I make betting against grifters in boxing.
  16. That is a devious trap. In that case the puzzle should have blocked Qg5 so the queen is truly lost. Very sneaky but not sneaky enough. Qg5 is too obvious once your queen is so stuck. It's the only option.
  17. Why didn't he arrange a kickboxing match then? Because there is no money in it. Boxing is where old stars go to get their last grift.
  18. More directly: "What about you Owen? Aren't you whacked out on pickup? What kind pervert supports Trump?"
  19. I assumed it was a trap at first but then no trap materialized. Black can win even without taking the bishop I think. Try to win that game without taking bishop.
  20. Why didn't you tell me he was fighting? I would have bet too!
  21. The dangers of pickup go far deeper than catching an STD. Pickup will corrupt your soul and mind. As it did with Owen, Julien, Jeffy, and more. Look at the monster it made of Julien.
  22. "If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses." -- Henry Ford
  23. @Thought Art Obviously there is bad science and even worse science. There is no bottom to self-deception.
  24. Of course there are dangers. There are also dangers to sleeping with hundreds of women. Funny how that is never emphasized, huh?
