Okay. That's cool. At least Linux can do something useful.

Oh! Have you guys been jerking off the wrong guy this whole time? That would explain this whole no-fap movement.

Does not mean Linux can. There are many classic Windows games I still want to be able to run, like Morrowind. Can Linux run Morrowind? I dunno.

That series is about personal growth, not getting laid. "Getting laid" is just bait to lure in the fools.

Those are the perverts.

Nukes did not help stop Hitler in any way. What stopped Hitler was millions of Russian bodies. My grandparents stopped Hitler. Let's see how you feel about that when the AI market bubble implodes and half your savings is wiped out overnight. And the Fed prints so much money to backstop the implosion that a carton of eggs costs $20. That's where we are headed fast.

But can it run Crysis?

Give me $3 trillion and I will only see rainbows and unicorns ahead. I'll even lick Trump's asshole as a free bonus!

Bilzarian is not wrong about Zionism. But his position is not progressive, it's regressive. The far right hates Jews. That's not a good thing even if Zionism is wrong. There are legit antisemites out there. They are on the far/alt right.

He is honest. Honestly high on his own supply.

They are paid $3 trillion dollars to lie to you. You asked the fox in the hen-house if he has eaten any chickens. And you trust him? Haha If you gave me $3 trillion dollars, I would use AI all day long. I would have AI clean my toilets. Then I would pay a wage slave on the side to actually clean my toilets while you are gawking at how awesome I am.

I will argue that you can't do serious code without AGI.

Look, I could be wrong. Please form your own conclusions. But I am pushing back on the AGI hype train. Calling their bluff. Let's see who's right in 3 years.

Coding basic good-looking websites is very simple these days. There are so many tools for this. This does not represent a serious programming project. AI is not capable of replacing human programmers. Yes, AI is good at coding short, small, self-contained projects like a little PacMan game or personal website. But it cannot code a professional corporate project. An LLM will never be able to do that.

1) It depends a lot on timeline. In 10+ years I can see a huge robotics revolution. But these companies are already shipping robots to consumers today. 10 years is a large gap. 2) I have changed my mind about job loss. I no longer believe that will happen. The problem is that none of these tech demos can be trusted to be genuine. These companies have zero qualms lying to you. They will have a slave operate the robot and call it autonomous. You can never trust they aren't doing that. Musk is clearly doing that. You are right that they are smart in certain ways, so we must be careful not to get too cocky or we will look like the fools. However, they are also shameless liars, as Musk has proven. And their companies are crazily overinvested, making them desperate for money. No, LLMs are not great at coding. They make so many mistakes that serious coding with them is impossible. It's a facade. Dig deep and you will see so many problems. Vibe coding is a lie. But hey, it's not a bad idea to be skeptical of my views on AI. I could be wrong. Predicting the future is a bitch.

Where is your kangaroo sleigh?

This assumes they can make robots work autonomously at all. Once they realize that's still 20 years away, they will be forced to downgrade their plans to slavery. They got investors to placate. All these AI companies are so overinvested they will be desperate for any kind of profit. That profit will come from enslaving your kids.

It just feels so lazy and pointless. Other deliveries are mostly stuff only available online. Pretty soon robot tele-slaves will carry rich fat Americans from the couch to the car. That's where all this is headed.

I've said that in the Deconstructing Science series, which is why I didn't repeat it in Deconstructing Rationality. But yes, that is a killer point.

Happy Halloween

I have never had my groceries delivered. What kind of pervert does that??

@Charlie Jensen What is your mental health situation? Do you have any mental disorders? Have you been checked for mental disorders? What is your age? What triggered this experience? Have you had any other spiritual experiences? Have you been doing any spiritual practices? Does you family have a history of spiritual experiences? All key questions.

I rate this post 7/10.
