@yuzu_4ever That's wealth. Not income. Tax 1-2% of it annually and...it just about covers defense?

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@willsolfiac Perhaps not alone. But even modest resources can give a lot of power with enough intelligence. And this is a trillion dollar company so....

strongly disagree with the take that the “AI market is winner take all”. to begin with, if this were true, there wouldn’t be an anthropic. the only reason I could see it being winner takes all is if you plan on “pivotal acts” against all other efforts once you have the capability

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@willsolfiac Ofc it is probable that there are still competitors. Probably just OAI and Google and one or two Chinese firms. Idk if they plan to sabotage them or out-business them or what

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@MilkTeaSept do me!

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@cammsyn Is it just me or do these versions in the new album sound better? Am I crazy? They sound louder at least

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@cammsyn Wait this is actually happening?

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@herbiebradley @ben_j_todd Next two years? Probably looks like this. But on a slightly longer scale....

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@snuff_twink @iconoclast502 Really?

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@ApriiSR Are you skeptical on capabilities or misalignment reaching the required level? I assume capabilities? (I think both will be insufficient in 2027)

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@ApriiSR @ohwizenedtortle Well base case with one asleep lion and one awake lion has the asleep lion eaten. So...

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@synthetican1mal Had no idea what those were but thought about it and it makes sense now

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@ReallyRadley @AKermodeBear As someone who's looked at things a little... the bubble talk is mostly cope at this point. Perhaps there's a minor bubble in neoclouds or such but...that doesn't matter much grand picture. The AI companies are quite fine as far as spending vs earnings goes

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@krustelkram Why do you have a comic of this?

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@toasterlighting @soggy_cat48 perhaps. but well. as a general prior....they aren't

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@toasterlighting @soggy_cat48 when they're not likely to process it rationally?

[Afflatus Solis @AfflatusSolis]

@toasterlighting @ApriiSR Presumably yes. But well I don't really have a good understanding of what India broadly is like either
