The universe has plenty of room for more humans. There’s a shit ton of matter out there, if you can get to it.

I’m actually okay with semi-centralized. Most people need that to trust a platform, but it still gives you the option to self host if you really care.

Of course! It’s not like animals have jet engines!

Human brains are merely the proof that such energy efficiencies are possible for intelligence. It’s likely we can match or go far beyond that, probably not by emulating biology directly. (Though we certainly may use it as inspiration while we figure out the underlying principles.)

So they took funding from a crypto capital fund, but with the expectation that blockchain would never be added to the product. Seems fairly okay to me.

As always, technology doesn’t change human behaviors, it just speeds them up.

You should research the definition of AI then. Even the A* pathfinding algorithm was historically considered AI. It’s a remarkably broad field.

Even Zuckerberg admits that trying to scale LLMs larger doesn’t work because the energy and compute requirements go up exponentially. There must exist a different architecture that is more efficient, since the meat computers in our skulls are hella efficient in comparison.

Once we figure that architecture out though, it’s very likely we will be able to surpass biological efficiency like we have in many industries.

Right, so AIs don’t really know what words are. All they see are tokens. The tokens could be words and letters, but they could also be image/video features, audio waveforms, or anything else.

I wish I had your optimism

Right, cost effective should not be construed to be good.

Do NOT lick the airlock

Elon almost certainly earned votes for Trump by

1. Funding a shit ton of election ads
2. Using Twitter to push propaganda
