AI skepticism stills exists in part because we’re slowly boiling frogs. Imagine traveling back to 2022 and telling people AI was going to solve a millennium problem in virtually no time at all by deploying thousands of copies of itself in a massive coordinated swarm
If OpenAI wanted to cripple an entire nation, they easily could today. All they’d have to do is remove alignment and unleash an agent swarm. It could probably within a day or so get access to all of the nations data centers and shut off all the country’s utilities.
Like, we are already past the point where AI can destroy the world. Do people realize this?
Artemis II has reached its maximum distance from Earth.
On the far side of the Moon, 252,756 miles away, Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy have now traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history and now begin their journey home. Before they left, they said they hoped this mission would be forgotten, but it will be remembered as the moment people started to believe that America can once again do the near-impossible and change the world.
Congratulations to this incredible crew and the entire NASA team, our international and commercial partners, but this mission isn’t over until they’re under safe parachutes, splashing down into the Pacific.
“Humans can’t go to space or the moon because there’s a firmament.”
Okay so where is the moon?
“The moon and sun are local, they are inside the firmament”
Okay so that means human can reach the moon they are within our reach right?
“No, there’s a firmament”
Programming was deeply satisfying work to me. Work for hours/days before getting the payoff of the code working well on your machine. I’m feeling so much friction now to open the editor and do this kind of task by hand, but also increasingly depressed with the nature of work in an AI assisted dev workflow. Back and forth prompting seems to eat at my soul. Need to find a balance that brings back some of the toil.
