@civ_enjoy Removing the physical aspect of an athletic competition, in favour of a reel of people emoting, seems rather crazy..

@adhijojnr @esegbonaluis Money -as a wage slave- do accumulate over time, your pension grow, your bank account grow, you own more stuff.
If you do any sort of "stay at home mom", that money is lost.
It shouldn't be a future financial burden for a waitress to marry a billionaire..

@MillennialWoes It's a nice dress though.. Makes the whole video a bit strange. Like she must have been aware that this was a very real possibility, so why not take the dress off and cross the stream naked?

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@Dr_Singularity The "enough time" really is everything in these exciting times.. Because it has to be shorter to "feel" like AGI.
The same thing will happen with ASI, it won't feel like ASI at first, because it will be too slow.
In a roundabout way, this is good.

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@Dr_Singularity Read an interesting post a couple of weeks ago (can't remember who said it). That we basically already have AGI, because given enough time and enough tokens, Fable could probably achieve most human cognitive tasks.

@BowieFan2024 @AndreasSteno yeah.. used "top 10%" as more of a slang(?) An easy "one-word" word to label a more complex hierarchy of money and wealth.
There are no easy substitute for this, other than a lot of sentences.

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@BowieFan2024 @AndreasSteno ..and they probably have (faster and better outcome at the top 10%).
If you exclude the possibility that Americans are "just being stupid". Then this is the only way it makes logical sense to have such a system.

@PodcastAlphaX I would say that I disagree with Europe being a question mark. Europe has a well established track record of going against it's economic interest..

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@PodcastAlphaX China invading Taiwan would be a huge strategic blunder.. Because as Ken says about "Europe has become a question mark over recent years".
Countries are just becoming more and more dependent on China, as a strategic trade partner..

@HolyChrisMolina @lporiginalg The future is robots, life extension and it will be glorious.

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@Mauritius681634 @lporiginalg It's a female author, make sense that she would take a more personally relatable angle to this emotional story.

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@Dr_Singularity Sucks that the videos are so bad, would love to see how it works..

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@chaotropy @elonmusk All his companies are valuated unjustifiably high - by any traditional metric (growth, earnings, etc.)
But I don't expect this to ever "normalize", because there is this intangible metric in play, one of futurism and wielding impossible things into existence.

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@charlesmurray Wealth is not distributed equally across a country.. The average/median income in Paris is higher than in Dallas. Paris is a rich city, with high earnings.. regardless of what France as a whole is.

@amandaorson >Every increase in technological capability, especially AI, will require more energy.
Not necessarily, because the technology becomes more efficient.
Here is a chart over household energy consumption in Denmark

@Invesquotes @MikeFritzell Not what I heard, in a podcast i listen to (sorte penge), an analyst relay a conversation he had with the COO of Novo, and he said that there hasn't been any measurably shifting from injections to tablets.

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@MikeFritzell The weird thing is that Novo Nordisk claim that they can't detect any migration from injections to tablets.
Why would anyone keep injecting themselves when there is an alternative?

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@agilityrobotics @arstechnica Why? It seems like a real possibility that an AI model can actually remote control a robot, in a similar way a human can remote control a robot.
I don't need thousand hours of training to fly a drone around, why should "future Claude" need to?

@hollowearthterf Welcome to the internet.. Enjoy your eternal stay..

[Jonas Nielsen @JonasNi46301750]

@yonann I like these interviews with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, they seem very thoughtful. Everything they say seems to have marinated in their noggings for a while.
(except the Sam Harris/Ben Affleck thing.. That was embarrassing.)
