The attribution of the quote “Tolerance will reach such a level that intelligent people will be banned from thinking so as not to offend the imbeciles” to Fyodor Dostoevsky is inaccurate. Fact-checking sources indicate that there is no evidence of Dostoevsky ever making this statement in his writings or recorded remarks. 10 The phrase appears to have originated in modern social media memes around December 2022, often circulated to comment on contemporary issues such as cancel culture, rather than reflecting 19th-century thought. Dostoevsky’s era predates such concepts, and the quote does not align with historical context or his known works.

@dotkrueger Ummm doubtful on surgeons. Very doubtful. These amazing robots can’t even assemble 👟 sneakers today. They work better with fine metal edges than the messy world of textile and fabric. Biological systems orders of magnitude messier.

This is a non-issue , and likely nonissue for a long , long time. The combination of extreme energy ( think $ cost & availability), and hardware vs wetware, will be there a for a long time. ….If we have better Rumbas around, Rumba espresso makers and FSD drivers , it hardly impacts mission and service oriented lives.

@EndWokeness Crime is illegal now in CA?

@NathanLands Agree with most of this. There is another side however, the long working hours in Japan, the mostly low income, the quiet despair of many who cannot move up and cannot leave. The working old , sometimes very old folk, who have no choice.

@balajis What is your opinion on this? https://t.co/7vKowcnydK

It may not feel this way at times, with so much political hyperpolarization, but the US is on the verge of a modern renaissance. It just needs the resolve to finish the job:

1) The marginal cost of energy is going to zero in the US. Residential solar + abundant industrial domestic hydrocarbons is creating a level of self reliance and oversupply that will be applied to all manner of hard problems where energy is a key and costly input. As the marginal cost of energy approaches zero, it will help domestic industries overcome the labor arbitrage that currently benefits other countries. American industry will thrive.

2) The marginal cost of computation is going to zero. AI will help get us there and the US is the clear leader. We are still in the early phases of this and still sorting through some premature excesses but the trend is obvious and along with (1), gives American companies the potential to rewrite our economy and then export the best of it to the rest of the world.

3) The end of cancel culture/wokeness and a rebirth of free speech are allowing all manner of people to highlight, without fear of retribution, that there are really only a few things that matter to everyone. It doesn’t mean that the myriad other issues don’t matter, just that they have their place and time.

I’ve never been more excited about the future in America. These things will happen over the next few years and they will benefit a broad cross section of our society.

Let’s finish the job. 💪🏽

@lexfridman Lex, choose wisely. It may be the most important decision you make. Wishing you best of luck

@GadSaad @elonmusk I second this. Follow through on promises.

@ilyasut There is a time for everything. @elonmusk @xai

After almost a decade, I have made the decision to leave OpenAI.  The company’s trajectory has been nothing short of miraculous, and I’m confident that OpenAI will build AGI that is both safe and beneficial under the leadership of @sama, @gdb, @miramurati and now, under the excellent research leadership of @merettm.  It was an honor and a privilege to have worked together, and I will miss everyone dearly.   So long, and thanks for everything. I am excited for what comes next — a project that is very personally meaningful to me about which I will share details in due time.
