Probably not for us, but as soon as billionaires start dying some of them will get very scare of death, and put all his money in, and in future probably that fountain of youth will be reserved for a very small minority, or it will be like a commercial product for the elite, aristocrats mainly ...

Many things are harmful and non ethical but we still do it for the sake of profit:

- using pesticides and herbicides

- using fossil fuels

- waging wars for the sake of profit

- over fishing

- deforestation

- spying on people to make profit from advertisement and to influence their political views ...

- ...

And if I continue list can get very, very long ... :/

That is interesting way of thinking, make sense, although it would be nice to have options, and then you choose on your own. Like you will go to dentist and they tell you:

- option 1 costs $$ and you need to wait 5 months and there is 2% danger of genetic mutation

- option 2 costs $ it is immediate but over time you need to come again and it will cost you $$ over 10 years, it does not look as nice and maybe there are side effects

- options 3 cost .c but has mercury that can over 30 years cause serious issue ...

Something along those lines

Although amazing, I am following similar news for last 20 years, and promise of tooth regrowth was as a holly grail of dental health, but on the other side it is similar like a nuclear fusion always 20 years away. Process goes like this, "big news -> excitement -> and then nothing -> few years later again nothing -> you go to you dentist for regular check and when you ask he laughs in your face."

I read about steam cell re-growth, electric arc repair, calcium filaments instead of "plastic" composts ... and nothing came into fruition. If it ever gets to the market probably I will not need teeth anymore.

In this type of economic environment why would dentists allowed everyone to have perfectly healthy teeth? This type of product may succeed only if someone decides to go rogue like Tesla with electric cars, deliberately impacting competitors ...

Can you explain location? and yubikey/code-key are in UK used for access, and if you want to authorize payment to new account, but will not protect you from standing order?

Spot on, UK. I was thinking no exceptions, except (I hope this does not defeat the purpose of previous no-exceptions :) ) in the case when you transfer money to another account to withdraw money. Let imagine that customer can set the rule, any type of larger transfer eg.£500 will trigger message and fraud detection algorithm.

I think it is the Jeremy Clarkson one, interesting enough 12 years later, same issue not much technological improvement in the major banks.

Somewhere in the parallel universe, far far away ....

Maybe it would be good to remove any tax reliefs or ability to influence for charities, then "charitable" spirit of wealthy would be seen as truly is. I guess that could cause better wealth distribution in future.

Make sense what you saying but in all articles of similar nature, there are always top-secret documents but never hard proof, (photo, video or similar) that could be analysed. Even when there are some photos/videos resolution is so low that it looks like it was recorded 20 years ago. So, my default mode is just to discard any of those news as some kind of viral trash paper frenzy... to be honest over years I read so many of those, that if real aliens (or Chinese navy-seals) would land in front of me and ask me for "direction" my heart would not skip a hart beat. It is pretty much as the story 'the boy who cried wolf' after so many information, disinformation, cover up information, misinformation... it is really hard for me to think anything else then that this is yet another NSA's social experiment.

Just thought about something, you know always when foreign airplane, ship or any other vehicle invades foreign territory anywhere in the world, immediately it is in headlines. Full footage, there is even a satellite recording, everything is wide open and fully transparent. But in case of these events there is nothing or enough to be misleading. So, why to hide it from public? Maybe because it is US tech. Reason which says it would cause panic, does not add up because after pandemic, global warming and amounts of lies and fear mongering people are indifferent toward everything.

Let me understand this: in the age of smart phones and billions of cameras, there is no single photo of the event, but somehow there are top-secret log record included in the article? Yeah right ...

Can you give me where in guidelines says so?

Things are so dire that even if we use all "guns" in our disposal it will be difficult. There is no single solutions that can help, amount of CO2 is so huge that if we would turn CO2 we need to sequester into graphite bricks we could build a wall 10 meters high and 5 meters wide encircling the Earth around Equator 32 times.

So, we need all we can think at same time, now. :/

Simply, current amount of carbon in the atmosphere has been released from sources that were not there, and we are still cutting trees more than we plant. Some calculation say we need between 1-2 trillion trees. But even then trees need a quite some time to grow and become effective.

I agree

Let's just make up few number from thin air and lets create 2008 gold rush. Current Tesla P/E is 1,027.86, and current "value" is 628.58B. Valuation that says it worth more than 6 top automakers combined. https://www.thedrive.com/news/38485/at-631b-tesla-is-now-wor...

Just to put everything in perspective Toyota makes 11 million cars per year. Tesla makes 0.5 million. Ok we can say there is future value, batteries and blah blah blah... But actually it "worth" more than top lithium battery makers LG Cham (51,8B) and Panasonic (32B).

So, lets cut the bull** lets just say Tesla will worth $30 Trillion and then quickly sell all stocks, and then buy all automakers and battery producers in the world + and a few techno companies like Microsoft, Apple and Google just for the sake of autopilot development?!

This is a story about a billionaire who imagines a rosy future full of unicorns and rainbows. What is the point of more wealth created by AI or magic genie from the lamp when it will end up in the pockets of the same people as always? Even now, there is plenty of wealth, but it is concentrated in 0.01% of the population.

So, there is a straightforward question for Sam, why don't you give up your wealth now, same as all billionaires worldwide?

So spare me of the long rich guy "moral" story, answer is simple neither Sam or any billionaire around the world will. As usually when they do they do it through tax loophole relieves schemes, their money will never get to those who actually may contribute to this world if they could just free their time from the rat race.

So, when stronger AI comes online, there will be no fairness. All the immense riches will go to the same minority - that same minority or wealthy people will not give away as they will as always think that they are entitled to it. Same as Elon Musk believes that Tesla currently has a "fair" valuation.

... Fairness is a tricky word; it depends on the head, which is pronouncing it ...

So, it is not enough we have pandemic, economic collapse, global warming, and continued long list of issues that need money... but somehow there are always spare money for additional very expensive doomsday weapons...

I do not see what it would not be cost effective for the amount of power it would be used. To power entire world with solar we would need solar installation size of Spain or bit less in Sahara, and to connect about 2000km cable over Algeria–Morocco i really do not see the issue, and that does not include current wind solar installations.

Neither 3000Km or 5000 you have 1-2 countries if you choose route over Morocco and Spain so between 1000km and 2000km and Strait of Gibraltar has max depth: 900 m and width of just ~15 km.

Isn't this easy solvable with additional SMS token approval as mentioned in article?

> "orsman added that, effective immediately, Sakari has added a security feature where a number will receive an automated call that requires the user to send a security code back to the company, to confirm they do have consent to transfer that number. As part of another test, Lucky225 did try to reroute texts for the same number with consent using a different service called *Beetexting*; the site already required a similar automated phone call to confirm the user's consent. This was in part "to avoid fraud," the automated verification call said when Motherboard received the call. Beetexting did not respond to a request for comment."

But it seems that the entire system is globally infested with security holes. Is this applicable worldwide or just limited to one country ?

Some of those arguments are kind of reasonable, until author defeated purpose by recommending `styled-jsx`.

I am just trying to imagine working in a team 1 dev + 1 designer...

But what is the price justification: Zaphier $599 per month vs. $3.99 per month for IFTTT ?

I know that IFTTT is a quite long on the market, do not know about functionality comparison.

https://zapier.com/pricing

Even cheapest Zapier plan is $19.99 per month.

Is there any physical proof that theory is sound in those papers?

I mean have they tried to send anything electron, atom or anything small that would confirm FTL speed ?

From some reason, all I am wondering is how huge is potential for industrial espionage this way?

It is interesting thought, especially as few days back someone in HN wrote completely opposite view, that everything should be controlled and spied on (and for the love of universe I cannot find it again, it was on first page of HN I would appreciate link ...), because with progress we are becoming more powerful and more destructive - so any human in future with enough knowledge, would have ability to destroying entire humanity.

Where is the middle ground between those two ends?

Maybe it is similar to what we have now?

Any details on the reason why?

Regardless how it is created, if it exist it can be made artificially again - it is just matter of time.

Same as with bacteria. 'In May 2019, researchers, in a milestone effort, reported the creation of a new synthetic (possibly artificial) form of viable life,' - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_life

Give human enough time and resources, we can replicate anything, that is in our nature.

I am just simply stating, if it (bionic intelligence) already exist - another (artificial) can be built. I am not saying anything about existing models, ways or methods, just that if exist - it is possible to build one "again" so to say.

It is not so simple, let me give example, in UK during pandemic prices hyped by 30%. Reason is, rich own land and properties, but they own them on account of debt and cash flow. Some people have more than 100,000 properties in their portfolio, and they relying on cash flow. So, if anything disturbing happen let say pandemic kills lots of people (or they lose their jobs) and no one rents anymore, then next thing that will collapse are banks, as Banks cannot get their money back. Next thing is government collapsing. In order to maintain this structure, or protect it from collapsing, during each economic crises government pumps more money (subsidies, interest free money, free money) to the rich. What they do? They buy even more properties. So, basically on account of the blackmail-standoff-ransom-situation, they siphoning all the properties from the market. Regardless how many properties you make in UK they will buy them all, as they buying them with additional debt - and in that way protecting their renting business. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If we had it (AI), talking about dangers of having it, would be too late (as human intelligence cannot argue with god intelligence)

It is simple, as ant cannot contain human, in the same way humans won't be able to contain AGI. Can it exist, yes it can - simply, can me and you think, yes. In a way we are "device", so therefore, it is possible to make intelligence similar and/or more powerful than our is.

So, lets think, we have following issues:

- Climate change

- Artificial general intelligence

- Biotechnology risk

- Ecological collapse

- Molecular nanotechnology

- Nuclear holocaust

- Overpopulation

- Global pandemic

- ...

Most of them caused by way we use our energy and time.

Oh, yes we also have excess of computing power ... hm what shell we do?

Solution: Let spend even more energy on large calculations in order to create meaningless random numbers.
