Life GTO - "However vast the darkness, we must supply our own light"
When jobs get automated through technology, the displacement causes upheaval, but eventually most of the affected people move to other areas of employment. If you automate people, then there is no other work.
In the future, new jobs we can't yet imagine will be created, but AI will be able to do those jobs better than any human can retrain. There is a fundamental difference with this change that we are not talking about enough; we are attempting to replace intelligence. That encapsulates logic, planning, learning, reasoning, the whole human gambit. We are attempting to create something which is on par with humans at a cognitive level and eventually surpasses it. This isn't so much a new technology but an attempt to create our general ability as humans.
From a job's perspective, AI won't just replace certain jobs; it will replace humans themselves.
History is littered with examples of inflection points where we fall into these new paradigm shifts rather than plan towards them, which usually ends up causing extreme hardship for the majority. We can't afford to wait until time horizons narrow enough that actions are reactive, but instead, we need to be proactive now.
@TrueSlazac@Citrini coin the phrase "ghost GDP" in the 'The 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis' article. People commented it was 1st they heard the concept. I immediately thought of Ireland. “Ghost GDP“: output that shows up in the national accounts but never circulates in the real economy.
Some fields work in theory but not in practice. Some fields work in practice but not theory.
The uniqueness of economics is that it works in neither theory nor practice.
@haider1@ashleevance You are taking someone else's content and putting your own watermark on it and then acting indignant about them calling you out. ffs, have you no self awareness? You deserve to lose every single follower you have for this post.
@Kasparov63 Maybe we can create human only work places like in chess so they don't have to compete against the machines. The cognitive dissonance on this subject is astounding.
@dankness3 What I love most about this is that while Nick has clearly gone deep down the solver rabbit hole, he still talks about poker at times like there is this mysticism to it, like when you know, you know. You can even hear him when Becker says, are you serious? "I'm locked in".
I’ve wanted to do this for a decade.
But I never did - I refuse to give any company my DNA.
It is me.
So this week I sequenced my genome entirely at home. Literally on my kitchen table.
I never exposed my DNA sequence to the internet. Not at any point.
I used a MinION to do the sequencing (it’s smaller + weighs less than an iPhone).
I used open-source DNA models for the analysis (Evo2 and AlphaGenome) running locally on a DGX Spark and Mac Studio.
I traced mechanisms behind my family’s multigenerational autoimmune conditions that no clinician has been able to understand.
When I set out to do this I didn’t know if it would actually work. It does.
Your genome is the most private data you will ever have. You probably shouldn’t let it leave your house.
@LowLevelTweets@ThePrimeagen Some of the findings are at least true. You aren't getting concessions from these guys unless something serious has been pointed out to them. https://t.co/s2h7iud4BG
