Dumbass still stuck on the stem vs humanities divide like a 19 year old. We’re all in the same boat. Grow up

[Georg ‘Maverick’ Löfflmann @gloefflmann]

After years of everyone from Silicon Valley to politicians proselytising on how only STEM degrees are worth a dime and social science and humanities are basically worthless, I can’t help but feel just a small modicum of Schadenfreude at A.I. coming for the mathematicians first.

@DonKAriel @davidbessis How exactly are they expected to leverage internal models that OpenAI hasn’t released? Some of this could be done with Astra perhaps but the source of the slopnuke isn’t that model

[Bryan Johnsontown Massacre @DuncanAStuart]

Probably the correct take on “AI can solve math now”

@_ueaj @hecubian_devil Unfortunately the NYC-DSA tech action working group OC is marginalizing anyone who raises these concerns and labels them as disorganizers and EAs. They have put forth a hostile amendment to the safety res that is proposed. Perhaps the national org will do better but I doubt it

"How do single-celled algae swim toward light sources" is the kind of project that gets DOGE'd—how does this help Americans?

20 years later, the underlying protein is a central tool in human neuroscience.

We're a rich country, we should be funding way more basic science.

谢谢巴西人信任中国，但我想告诉你们:
我们的干预是没有用的，就好像一个蛋，从外面破开是食物，从里面破开，才是生命。
蜕变，新生，只能从内部发生。
不要把希望寄托在外部，寄托在选票上。
当你们跨过选票，相信巴西真正的主宰，是你们的力量与勇气时，一切都将改变。
加油💪🇨🇳❤️🇧🇷

when you taking a bounded integral and your homeboy start talking bout some "don't forget the +C" infront of the hoes

more people should read Parmenides to get the experience of being rhetorically dunked on by a chain of locally valid-seeming steps

the human value function is quite weak over words. it's good to be wary of long arguments playing with meanings and sliding around radial categories

“foid” “moid”
How about you worry about the void at the heart of existence instead?

@viriditax @EneaszWrites “Rationalists” eternally surprised that actions have consequences

sorry i Can’t hangout my clothes look fucking stupid on me

[machine yearning engineer @confusionm8trix]

if you’ve deluded yourself into thinking you’re “rational,” it’s easy to mistake kneejerk contrarianism for high decoupling. or as momma engineer said, “don’t get too open-minded or your brain might fall out your ears!”

Curtis Sliwa is like the first major antagonist of a shonen battle manga who seems like such a bad guy but he eventually gets so ingratiated to the main group that you forget he wasn’t always there

[peepeepoopoo @DeepDishEnjoyer]

quite unfortunate for the fate of humanity that so many important and now-relevant topics have primarily been thought about by people who are so damn weird

Jacob Geller in a statement on Bluesky admits everything is true and also thinks his own punishment wasn’t harsh enough

TESCREAL is roughly as useful concept for understanding AI debates as IPATMAT is for understanding conflicts in the Middle East.

In case you're wondering, IPATMAT stands for Israelis, Palestinians, Arabs, Turks, Muslims, Americans and Tasmanians.

What IPATMAT adherents (mostly) have in common is that they hold opinions about the borders and governance of various territories in Middle East. Sure, the opinions often contradict each other, and many IPATMATists spend much attention fighting other IPATMATists. But IPATMAT concept gives you a single ideology you can blame for wars, suicide attacks and all sorts of extremism.

Why Tasmanians? Mostly to make the acronym sound better - similarly to C in TESCREAL representing Cosmism, which usually refers to a 19th century Russian philosophy mostly not present in debates about AI.

@Xenoimpulse it’s an incredibly strong heuristic
