Words without actions are junk. You are asserting something you have no proof for. Proove it then. Amaze us all with your productivity, out in the open. Shred those pilled up open issues on open source projects and then give us a report of how fast-easy it.
If it is "easily true" you'll be done by next month
I am wondering, what sort of tasks are you seeing these x20 boost?
Such companies spit out "credits" all over the place in order to gain traction and enstablish themselves. I remember when cloud providers gave vps credits to startups like they were peanuts. To me, it really means absolutelly nothing.
No they are not. There exist brilliant people and monkeybrains across the whole population and thus the political spectrum. The ratios might be different, but I am pretty sure there exist some very smart neo-nazis
I understand there is a "by the book" process that should be respected, but this seems very fishy to me. I am certain the regulation would have passed had the tables been turned (meaning the companies would benefit from that said regulation)
Maybe there is some scientific aspect of interest here that i do not grasp, i would assume it can make sense in some context of psychological study. My point is that if you go that route you accept the premise that "something human-like is there", which, by that person's understanding, will have tremendous consequences. Them seeing you accepting their premise (even for study) amplifies their wrong conclusions, that's all I'm saying.
> Surely this is not quite accurate - the material properties - surface roughness, reflectivity, geometry, etc - all influence the appearance of a perceptible image of a person.
These properties are completely irrelevant to the image of the person. They will reflect a rock, a star, a chair, a goose, a human. Similar is my point of LLM, they reflect what you put in there.
It is like puting vegies in the fridge and then opening it up the next day and saying "Woah! There are vegies in my fridge, just like my farm! My friege is farm-like because vegies come out of it."
Why would you ever want to amplify a false understanding that has the potential to affect serious decisions across various topics?
LLMs reflect (and badly I may add) aspects of the human thought process. If you take a leap and say they are anything more than that, you might as well start considering the person appearing in your mirror as a living being.
Literally (and I literally mean it) there is no difference. The fact that a human image comes out of a mirror has no relation what so ever with the mirror's physical attributes and functional properties. It has to do just with the fact that a man is standing in front of it. Stop feeding the LLM with data artifacts of human thought and will imediatelly stop reflecting back anything resembling a human.
The human brain isn't a statistical aggregator. If you see a psychologically socking thing once in your lifetime, you might remember it even after dementia hits when you're old.
On the other hand, you pass by hundrends of shops every day and receive the data signal of their signs over and over and over, yet you remember nothing.
You remeber stuff you pay attention to (for whatever reason)
I am fine with this, but let's be clear about what we're expecting
No, he went from extreme to "in the middle", if you find yourself in their place you should do EXACTLY what he did.
> I’m planning on using it again. From scratch. And with a deeper level of curation and care - not as a second brain, but as a workspace for the one I already have.
You can't categorize a gazillion notes you obsessively picked up over years. Do anything required to become functional again, in this case, delete it all if it is psychologically weighing on you
This is the essence!
Very good post. I think the nuclear action was perfect, it was neede to get out of the loop.
You should write your thoughts, not copy paste others'. This way you help reorganise your brain to adapt to the subject. Some thoughts should be written as a tool and then thrown away, others (more important) should be kept
it's the ci/cd of american foreign poliyics
Very insightful, but the iranian minister had already started talks with the EU regarding the nukes[1], when Trump came in the bar and said "no you talk with us"[2]. So I don't know exactly the starting of what you're talking about.

Onto what you describe, it has to do with memory. Memory is storing and playing back sensory input, in the absence of that sensory input. So your brain plays back some past sensory input and checks it against current sensory input.
Eg you left the pen on the table. When you come back the pen isn't there. Your brain compares the stored memory of seeing the pen on the table vs what you see now.
Appreciate the agplv3 licence, kudos on that.
But we already have AGI
Very muddying statement. The normalization of intimidation and censorship has already happened by those in power, a comment can only acknowledge the reality of it.
> when we know that isn't the consensus nor desired.
by who? Crearly a lot of very powerful people desire it very very much.
People make money on youtube through ads, you can't do that (as effectively) on your own server. This also ties with the analytics.
Some organisations like the ready-made administration solution. Uploading files through ftp isn't for everyone. Youtube (and hosting platforms) has a nice ui to manage all the content, handles the user authentication etc.
Bandwith.
Backups.
I aggree that for people who don't need all these, and are tech savvy, uploading an mp4 to a server is the way to go.
No "we" don't want it. And those who do want it, let them go live in the early industrial England whete the lack of regulation degenerated masses.
Also, for some reason people still portray capitalism as being something completelky different with or without regulation, it's like saying a man is completelly different in a swimming swit and a costume.
> We, in the western world, were in the privileged position of having a choice, and we chose individual profit over the communal good
Again, "we" did not have a gathering a choose anything. Unless you have records of that zoom session.
> given the fact we're essentially animals.
This is a reductionist statement that doesn't get anywhere. Yes we are animals but we are more than that, similar to being quarks but also more than quarks.
