You can lose 1-2 pounds per week if you run a decent calorie deficit and hunger. You are exercising too much. Fat loss is 10% exercise and 90% diet. The key to losing weight is to cut out sugar and refined carbs like wheat, potatoes, rice, and calorie dense processed foods. Eat mostly protein, fat, and low cal veggies.

I got better things to do than sell the data of a few hundred people. But AI companies certainly scrape whatever you post for their greedy purposes.

@Judy2 Hard to say. The trouble is that it takes like 20 hrs of study just to comprehend the signifigance of Spiral Dynamics. The book doesn't do it justice. So he might read it but get little change in his worldview out of it.

It is useful to get a perspective on it other than mine. But the book is quite limited.

My God, the Russian grates my ears. Lol

LessWrong.com is a den for rationalists. Also, read the two rationality books from my book list.

How racist!

Imagine saying that to your neighbor's cat when she meows at you

But we have no idea how long it will take to crack intelligence. Might be like hover cars. Just because Elon Musk wants a hover car doesn't mean he can build one. LLMs are like regular cars, and AGI is like hover cars. It is premature to start freaking out about hover cars.

Haha. This is contradicted by the absolute scumbags they sleep with.

What blackmail do they have on her? Haha!

Because they have no actual understanding of intelligence. All they are doing is feeding it data, but they have run out of data already. There just is not enough data on Earth to make AI more intelligent than it currently is. And data is not real intelligence because is leeches off human intelligence. To make AGI they would need to actually crack the issue of intelligence, which they are not even working on. They are deluded by their own hype, greed, and lust for power. The whole thing is a gross juvenile rationalist farce.

@LordFall Promote snippets from your blog on X, Threads, BlueSky, etc. Create a funnel, with shallow content up front and deep content further in. Try to offer people value. What is useful to them? What are their needs?

It much depends on your personality and level of ambition. Most people are not very ambitious nor creative so for them working a simple steady job is fine. But for someone like me it is torture. I cannot do it because I demand way more from my life than obeying a boss to do medicore work to make him rich while the world gets dumber and dumber. It all depends on your values. Creative people require lots of autonomy and freedom to do their work. For non-creative people this is a non-issue. Some personality types can be happy working at the post office licking stamps. If I had to do that I would kill myself.

Pretty slick

@Natasha Tori Maru *Borat hi-five*

That's why I said were are going post-rational, meta-rational, and not abandoning rationality entirely and why learning rationality is important. It's a subtle issue.

Yes. I am calling the tech bros' bluff.

Telepathically clapping Brazillian cheeks confirmed!

Elon Musk is Homer Simpson designing the Homer car

All this assumes AI can do jobs. Huge unwarranted aasumption with no basis in reality so far. A chatbot is not a job.

Nice drawing!
