If they are using tech that is not originally theirs maybe. An orangutan can learn to drive.

If true. AI bros are not honest people. With all that circular financing and circlejerking and shit. All signs point towards unsuistanibility at scale and a crash. China already got crashed.

I will never financially recover from this. Watch the video attached to the linked article. Locking out Chinese AI products globally was probably a big cause in the dip

Democrats want no AI bailouts. They want to prepare for a crash.

Doubt it. Source? If anything it seems to only become more expensive to run. People are increasingly using AI more, putting a greater load on their systems.

Value is relative. Your going to have a bias for humans, being human and all. You won't see humans like a crocodile or a tiger does, to whom we are either a threat or just food. Your family is more valuable to you than a random stranger, who is more valuable to you than a farm pig, who's more valuable to you than ants. Value is just ones bias for survival. Humans or anything else for that matter don't need to have value to exist and be part of what makes creation whole.

Then why did the Chinese market lose 480 billion. Even when cut of from western markets, a profitable technology shouldn't lead to such a bloodbath. That graph is like an executioners axe.

I can see AI companies trying to switch to providing hacking for the military such that they don't have to be profitable. AI is too expensive to run to be profitable.

Woman version of "you need to smile more".

A certain degree of precariousness is historically normal. You should be prepared to take care of your survival. Don't study animal anuses for 5 years and expect society to reward you without a plan. Handouts and welfare are probably going to get tighter as well.

A certain state precariousness is normal historically I think. We're spoiled by exceptional circumstances. A week's worth of supply is nothing too serious though and its been a precaution governments have pushed for a while now. Global warming and Russian sabotage means there are times when the infrastructure might temporarily fail.

There are many legitimate grievances behind right-wing populism. People are going to vote for the alternative to mainstream politics if there are no real solutions from them, let alone acknowledgement of the problems they have. Post-WW2 politics and economy are not "normal", but historically abnormal. We're not recapturing lightning in a bottle.

Tucker is fattening up for a very white Christmas at the trough of epistemic slop. It's so perverse how pacifism is being used to push whatever agenda he has. Its clearly a front, which Trump also engages in. Basic facts are completely optional. It's just whatever is most useful. Hitler was chad for some reason. He clearly wanted to verbally execute the old dude and figuratively parade his corpse to his fans. Its just so ridiculous. I don't understand.

No. I noticed that people could be more woke/barbaric depending but I never keyed it as it developmental till spiral dynamics. Spiral dynamics has contextualized a lot and been instrumental to my worldview broadly.

I just don't understand what he gets out of being such a piggy. What's his game?

There's always a bigger fish.

Because no one spends 6-12 hours reading a book they aren't interested in. Only they can now what interests them enough to commit the time to a book. Rarely have I ever seen a gifted book actually get read. It's true of me as well as the books I've gifted myself. I see that fucker collecting dust on my mates shelf, begging to know it's purpose in life, unable to just end it all. Please stop gifting people books unless you know what your doing. Your doing the world a disfavor. This needed to be said.

Probably a waste of money. People don't actually enjoy reading that much. They have to pick it out themselves in order to be engaged enough just to read the first page. Less than half of books bought are ever finished. A better strategy is to buy them a gift card I think. Then your inviting them to engage with books in practice.

Solidarity is how you advocate for any minority or marginalized societally. We have much more solidarity for women today than a century ago, hence we treat them much better now. In contrast, Japan is more misogynistic. It's only in the last years that they rewrote their laws on rape. Women need their own train carriage to not get groped. Broadly, cases of sexual assault go down as porn use go up, so it's likely a matter of access. Also, rape is a concept your bought into from your culture. Rapists don't believe its wrong, otherwise they wouldn't really do it. It's not so much a genetic predisposition towards rape as much as it is just towards having sex. If your not a rapist, you will have less sex. That is why men rape.

Many hands carry more. Centralized planning cannot replicate the vast and disperse knowledge and experience of locals and aren't accountable to the results they create or dynamic market demands to nearly the same degree. The persisting ugliness of capitalism means it does works in essence. Otherwise we wouldn't do it. Communism is bad once and then we go back to capitalism. We've gradually honed capitalism to be less brutal though, something we are likely to continue to do. We no longer base our economy off institutional slavery for one.

Chimps and bonobos are not our ancestors. They are evolutionary relatives. Were not even the same genus. We branched off from a common ancestors millions ago on the evolutionary tree. Human mating habits is more relative to environment and survival strategy than anything else. Sorry, pet peeve of mine.

I remember you making a point about it as part of your dating advice, to avoid drinking at all. I think a little alcohol can be useful. That's why I brought it up.
