It’s weird to hear John Carmack referred to as “former Meta exec”.

“We had to struggle with the old enemies of peace—business and financial monopoly, speculation, reckless banking, class antagonism, sectionalism, war profiteering. They had begun to consider the Government of the United States as a mere appendage to their own affairs. We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob."

― Franklin D. Roosevelt

Every year there are less and less reasons to buy an Android flagship phone.

It's still impressive:

write a short rhyme about a goblin who missed an attack without rhyming a word with itself

A goblin sprang and swung his blade,

His aim was true or so he prayed,

But alas, his foe had deftly swayed,

And the goblin's attack had been waylaid.

Which charities? I don’t think proud boys and patriot front count as charities

With all due disrespect, he can put a wooden fence around giga factories and use the butthole as a mallet

Yes, if the title were true. It appears that Tesla has identified low performing workers and warned them months ago late last year. They were finally fired right before the union was organized and only 1 of 27 were later identified to actually be part of the union. None of the union organizers were fired either. Tesla's lawyers just announced this and they would have serious repercussions if they lied about this and did not have proveable memo's.

If they were targeting union members they would have done a better job targeting them. It looks like they actually only removed low performing workers that were slated for removal through the warning process already.

We are falling for clickbait articles here because we love to hate Tesla/Musk.

Waayyy old news.

Lol what are you talking about? Chatgpt is literally created out of foundational research coming out of google. Google has also had a functional version of bard used by employees for years. It just wasn’t released to the public until recently

America has become so incompetent and corrupt that other countries need to be the adults and step in. Not a good look, Yankees.

And prison time. There's no excuse for betraying the public trust looked this.

The issue with that is, usually people don't realize they had a problem until it is solved for them. No one was calling for cars, no one was calling for the internet.

Keeping up appearances

There is a difference in AI actually. None of those things you mentioned could actually become sentient while AI can. Also, everything you mentioned bringed more jobs to the market. AI will cut every job we have.

What data?? You haven't shown any data. And if your point was "Texas has a lot of renewables" then no one is arguing against that. The argument was "Texas officials are against renewables" and the other guy showed that data. You haven't shown anything, except hints that you're arguing against a strawman.

Which is fine. I merely wish to suggest to you, that if you consider ChatGPT to be intelligent, you devalue your own intelligence and your reason for having it.

Because by your own description, you’ve already implied that ChatGPT is more intelligent than you.

So I’d ask: Do you really want to believe that a stack of code is more intelligent than you are? It’s just a tool, friend. It only exists as human-created code, and it only does one thing: Analyze and construct human language.

Whereas, you can be intelligent without using language at all. You can be intelligent by simply and silently looking at another person’s face.

And the reason I’m telling you this is because I consider it dangerous to mistake ChatGPT for intelligence. That’s the same fear you describe: The devaluing of humanity, via the devaluing of human labor. But human labor is not humanity. If it were so, we could say that humans who do not work are not intelligent - even though most of us would be perfectly happy if we didn’t have to work. Which is why we created ChatGPT in the first place.

It once required a great deal of intelligence to start a fire. Now, you may start a fire by easily flicking a lighter. That didn’t make you less intelligent than a lighter.

Our government is so bought and paid for I'm surprised I can't get it on Amazon.

There will be a boom and there will be a bust, but some interesting stuff and new players will thrive and some old ones die.

Generative AI really feels like it fits a generational wave pattern, of explosion, boom, shake-out, transformation of the industry and culture.

While I understand politicians need advisors, I feel that ultimately the full responsibility for the proposed law falls entirely on them (and should be written by them). Blatant cases such as allowing a lobbyist to "do your homework" should result in immediate dismissal and barring from any political position.

Edit: and punitive actions. I don't know about prison, but certainly life destroying financial penalties that would absolutely obliterate any wealth gained up to that point and force them into living like a regular citizen.

It looks like OP posted an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

The end of humanity as we know it. 🤣

About 46% of us Texans voted blue the last election and generally despise the extremist right-wing government we have here. Arguably this state is a lot more blue-leaning, we just have extreme gerrymandering and so many blue leaning people don’t vote.

Turn Texas Blue. Support green energy
