Thank God AI is so powerful that we would live in a post-scarcity world! AI is so productive that labor is basically free. Thus making products basically free.

Who said that white people can’t cook?
French and italian food is generally regarded as good.
The stereotype is usually that the British can’t cook.


You can also have shit leaders that micromanage. What even is your point?


There’s 24h in a day for leaders too. A leader cannot achieve infinite output by being infinitely good, just like an expert cannot achieve infinite output by being infinitely good.
Expertise is also a force multiplier.
A single expert in a team of juniors can do so much more. Because it can delegate the junior work to the juniors while doing only expert work. Thus ending up with more expert work done.


Well, you can say stupid shit and only realize it after you already posted it.
In those situations it’s better to just edit the comment so people can still read the stupid shit with the context that the commenter doesn’t believe in the stupid shit anymore.


Did you read my comment through an LLM summary? Your response has no connection to my comment.


Humans can be held accountable though. Which means they would rather say “I believe this is because …” than “you are absolutely right! If you remove the voltage regulator from the power supply, it will provide more power!”. And if they don’t, they can be fired or put in prison, where they can stop doing harm.
If your LLM repeatedly lies to you, there’s nothing you can do about it. Maybe try another LLM, but there’s not many of them and they all lie.


If that were true, there would’ve been a software explosion, since LLMs have “killed manual programming” for some years now according to the guys that earn money when people believe that.
There hasn’t been any perceivable increase of software products over these years. Nor a decrease in their price.
The only notable differences are:


Because those services are actually useful. LLMs are just plagiarism machines. The only way they are remotely useful is because they “saved” a lot of money by stealing all the data on the internet. And even then, they have to operate at a huge loss. They’re also stealing from everyone by getting government subsidies and by ignoring environmental laws.
Remember, just because data is on the internet, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t have an owner.
If billionaires played by everyone’s rules and had to operate with profit, LLMs would be so incredibly expensive that no one would use them. They only seem remotely useful because basically all of society is footing part of the bill.
For the other services provided for data centers, whoever uses them does pay them, and it’s not expensive. You don’t need 5GW to serve a 30 minute video.


Yes. It ends up in the ocean. Where there is infinite water. Do you know why there are places with almost no water, even though there is an “infinite” water source on earth? It’s not because they live far from the ocean. It is because ocean water is salty. Salty water is not apt for human consumption.
When you throw fresh water in the ocean, you are essentially destroying that water. Even if the H2O molecules are still there.


You either make driving fast less safe, or you put a speed camera on every corner with the appropriate punishment. Cameras are expensive, and drivers will complain about them. If you make driving fast less safe, only the ones that remember how the road was before can complain about it.
The thing is not who does it. The thing is who complains about it.
In this example all 3 observers are in the same reference frame. That is, each of them are moving at the same speed. This is not what the meme is about. In this example the night from Al would reach you 0.06s after he lit it. Which is expected in Newtonian physics.
The problem of the speed of light being the same for all observers is when they move at different speeds.
The scenario is: Alice is inside a train moving at almost the speed of light, and Bob is outside it, looking at the train. Let’s set that light moves at 1m/s (for simplicity) and the wagon Alice is in is 1 meter long.
Alice is at one end of the wagon, and turns a flashlight on. Alice will see the other side of the wagon illuminated after 2 seconds (since the light has to reach the other end and bounce back). Since the wagon is 1 meter long and the speed of light is 1m/s.
However, when she turns the flashlight on, Bob is also looking. Let’s say that the train moves at 0.99m/s. In that case, after 1 second the light would have traveled 1 meter, but the wagon (and Alice) has traveled 0.99m, therefore the light is only 0.01m away from Alice.
To summarize: after 1 second, in Alice’s frame of reference, the light has just touched the other side of the wagon. Meanwhile, in Bob’s reference frame, the light has only moved 0.01m away from Alice.
That explains why everyone in anime seems so fucking dumb.
“In order to kill the guy, we have to shoot him in the head”
“So you are saying that we have to shoot the guy in the head in order to kill him?”
Yes you little shit, that’s exactly what he said, with the exact same words. It’s so annoying.


I don’t think the multibillion price tag is about the physical battery itself.
It’s probably the cost of the entire project. Which includes:
The list goes on. Notice how I didn’t even mention the battery itself.


If there were no billionaires, a corrupt person could still have power inside a government. Making it a corrupt government.
Then he could benefit from that corruption and become a billionaire.
It’s not a one way relationship.
Corrupt entities make powerful people. And powerful people (sometimes) do make the entities corrupt.
And this is an issue for all political systems.
It’s not a “get rid of billionaires and the issue is fixed”. We must both redistribute power so it is at more reasonable levels. And clean the entities.
And once the power imbalance is smaller and the entities are clean, it is a constant maintenance fight to keep those entities clean and the power balanced.
A single democratic election can give a lot of power to a person that previously had none. Power is always flowing.


Calculating the AR locally doesn’t mean that you won’t be sending the recording to Facebook.
They don’t collect data because it is necessary for the technology they use. They collect data because they sell it.


For AR you need to be recording. If you are recording, it is being sent to Facebook servers. You accepted Facebook’s terms and conditions, not me.
If you don’t want to be punched, you should advocate for laws that make the glasshole glasses ugly through non-avoidable methods of detecting if the glasses are recording.
For example by requiring every glass hole glass to have a physical cover that physically covers the view of the camera, and it should be a bright color to easily see if it is covering the camera or not. The contour of the camera should be painted with an equally bright color, contrasting highly with the cover. So you can easily see if the cover is covering it completely.
A led that turns on when recording is not enough, it’s very easy to remove a led from a device.
If you want to not use glass hole glasses for evil, you should want it to be mandatory for other people to see if you’re using it for evil or not.


You can’t pirate ram though
