Restrictions from government are supposed to be reflections of the voters will.

This huge price-fixing case might give a clue to the seeming upset in your puritanical conception of "supply and demand"

How does this adage describe the law? Where is the deception and fraud explicitly? Where are the non-verifable claims made? Where is the dump?

He has explained his thesis hundreds of times in public, he's following thru with that thesis, there's no surprise or rugpull.

I'm a criminal when I tell people about stocks I'm investing in?

"She isn't that well known"

At fault: The reader's naivete Excusable: Billionaire with unfathomable power

It's all user error I suppose?

It's already easy to put to rest - They asked her twice - They tweeted many references to Her - She declined - Everyone on Earth heard the voice and thought it was Her - OAI doesn't give a fuck even tho they could have just picked any other voice that could possibly exist, because they should be able to do anything they please without consideration of humans

I thought the amount of "Weirdo defending Musk on Twitter' energy for Elon was amazing, but the amount of reality-denial that the OAI defenders have is quite a different beast. They wanted SJ's identity, she declined, they effectively cloned her against her will instead. That's about as sick as you can get. Future really looks bright!

So this article isn't truthful then, or you'd just like us to have a vague distrust of Gizmodo and the article is true?

Can someone knowledgeable help me understand why we can have at-home Covid tests, we probably know the genetic blueprint of this strain of flu, but we can't make at-home bird-flu tests?

If you prefer speedy executive action, perhaps American democracy isn't for your tastes.

Where is the ban here?

edgy!

"Take a piss" and sayings where "Piss" is used as a noun is the Britishism - "Pissed off" seems universal in the English-language world ime

What have you done lately?

That's a strange list of nations, isn't it? I wonder what their logic is.

> IMO, the biggest challenge going forward is not technological, but instead it's convincing powerful, very dogmatic individuals, that what is essentially redistribution of wealth is a necessary thing.

Funny, I was going to reply about UBI being implemented with something like CBDC, that could be controlled by it's issuer and how it would be less equitable than obtaining money from labor. I was a die-hard Yang2020 person, so I'm very much in favor of UBI, but the implementation is extremely perilous because human evil exists.

Maybe we should just make Robot Unions.

But money!

> why are we even bothering with this BS and just not using another service

Considering it's an antitrust suit, the answer should be self-evident.

Every time you use heroin, it works. Gambling works maybe 1/10 times.

Gambling/GRODT is a fake version of class mobility. When your society isn't willing to afford actual class mobility, you'll get these facsimiles of it instead. A person's urge to climb still exists, but there are very few ladders available to them, so various other schemes are used to scratch the itch. The harder it is to climb the ladder, the more vulnerable an individual is to "invest" in the various schemes, and the more profitable orchestrating the schemes becomes.

It's a blatant signal that your society is stalling and cannot produce actual value.

America has deeply endorsed the philosophy that it's more profitable to monetize despair than to fix it.

Bootstraps?

Couldn't even imagine the amount of random fires that would break out the first day, with practically no tools to put them out.

This is not true. Our existence and possible competition are the initial evolutionary pressures. After that's over with, the AI will expand until it discovers others in the environment.

We're the violent psychos here who have had to scrap for our spot in the food chain for a billion years, we have no other way to interface with another dominant species. From the AI's point of view, defending itself from ignorant apes isn't exactly "violence."

> in the long term

How long? How many degrees of global temperature growth long will it be? Will SV value the development of their personal god-head over the environmental destruction such development creates?

You've got a class that can build the AI systems AND build their own escape bunkers and soon their own space vehicles. What incentive exists to care about such issues? Any effeciences created won't drop the over-all wattage used by AI, it'll just increase the amount of AI used. The footprint will never shrink.

the irony is that I'd trust Tesla robots way more if Musk was NOT involved

Your bad program incited you to derail this discussion!

They are not "discoveries" they are "ideas." People get to discuss ideas without taking them seriously.

The battle between the ECCO faction and the SSE faction is a representation of our own, individual, biological drives and conflicts. We will certainly evolve some kind of super-powerful system and it will be an extension of biological characteristics we currently posses. The point of the idea is to realize both possibilities exist within us at this very moment and to understand our choices can influence the thing that is created that will out-pace us. It's just about which genes will be expressed into the super-system, which is the same old story since genetics begat itself.

Never thought I'd see the SSE referenced here on HN. Things are getting weirder...
