@yishan@TaiwanSpecial@ChengWeiLai2 「因為這個世界已經沒有你存在的必要」makes it pretty clear lol.
FWIW I checked with some Taiwanese friends and it seems fairly unambiguously interpreted that way as well
Awkward Taiwan:
In probably one of the more surreal commencement speeches of all time, graduates at Taiwan’s Shih Hsin University #世新大學 were told to “End yourselves quickly” if they couldn’t keep their lives in order after they entered the work place.
This rather drastic admonition was made by Shih Shin University president Chen Ching-ho 世新大學校長陳清河 during his commencement address to the school’s Master’s and PhD degree graduates.
He then went on to tell them that if they could not manage their lives they should exit from the world because the world wouldn’t need people like them.
The ensuing uproar has led to calls for Dr Chen to resign. Yesterday he apologized for “had not been sufficiently careful in my remarks” and announced he would take a two month unpaid leave.

Mira Murati says the outcome of frontier AI is not predestined:
"Predicting a dystopia or a utopia, to me, feels very simplified because the truth is we actually have a lot of agency in how we build this technology, in the tools that we're building, how we're deploying it."
"There are certainly those risks. We all understand the potential for greatness that comes with building frontier AI systems, and that's why we're working on them."
"Where I might disagree or take a different path is that I think we have a lot of agency. This period of time where both humans and AI systems have their hands on the wheel, and we can collaborate, it's a very important time to get right."

NY tech week wouldn’t be complete without a talk about ✨peptides✨ (hosted in one of NYC’s most gorgeous art deco spaces, to boot).
@maxmarchione@JamesPeyer and @cremieuxrecueil were great panelists. Lots to think about after that talk—this space will only continue to accelerate.
