with sam and greg ousted yesterday
my initial thought yesterday was “shit they have discovered AGI” and the only person who was capable of understanding it was ilya sutskever.
now it’s seems even more an more plausible that is the case. to understand the amount of stress and pressure he must have been under i urge you to watch this short documentary.
this was recorded during the development of chatGPT. but the sincere stream of thought about the greater good AND the bad that will come from AI might put it more clear to why this might have happened.
my thesis, they have had AGI internally for a while, and Ilya, andrej karpathy might have been the first ones to grasp what they have made.
to be clear, geoff hinton regrets his life’s work (the work on AI) due to him worry about all the bad it can be used for.
maybe ilya is under similar pressure. to much for one person to bear.
regardless, we will know more soon.
i feel for all involved parties, and for the community at large. this is not great.
@jacksonhinkle We’ve seen a similar scenario in the past. They were prosperous for a couple years, until the corruption set in and made it the poorest country in the northern hemisphere, if not, the world. Let’s see if they learn from history and avoid their mistakes.
My father-in-law is a builder. He is insanely gifted. We were in a cathedral together years ago and I asked him what it would cost to build it today. I will never forget his answer…
“We can’t, we don’t know how to do it.”
Last August, the Bills cut punter Matt Arazia after a woman accused him of gang rape.
Evidence has now proven Arazia was not at the house when the woman alleges he raped her and that she was having consensual sex with several dudes that night.

@avocado_rice @Really_Hamilton@unusual_whales I agrée with your suggestion of cutting expense, but just so you know, France is probably the highest tax rate there is in the world. They have a spending problem, not revenue problem
@DanShareADan@Really_Hamilton@unusual_whales Not really the right question imo. The average age of death keeps increasing, so retirement funds are almost depleted. The math just doesn’t add up. They had to extend. Now, why is France still going around and giving money to all these foreign nations and nonsense programs
