Humans have also created so many problems for humanity


Disagree on the last part but rest is pretty good.
For context: AfD is the most popular party today in Germany. Their leader Alice weidel publicly praises the time of her grandfather while her grandfather was a member of NAZI party. Another high ranking member of AfD was recently caught doing a zeig heil in front of parliment building. In early 2023, they were caught attending a neo-nazi meetup.
And despite all that, they are today number 1 in polls. This doesn’t look very “reflecting on past mistakes” tbh.


Curse the profit maxxing capitalism behind AI, if it wasn’t AI, it would have been something else


Lmao when china does it, its sweatshop labour and when western companies pay their labour pennies its the fault of the workers for being lazy.
I get the feeling if this was a us company, people like you would have been chanting this as a success of capitalism that will increase competition and decrease prices.


Its memory we are talking about, literally everyone in the world already uses it. Its not like crypto or other tech that might become obsolete any time soon.
The profit margins might shrink but there will be emough uses for it for sure. Think of personal clouds, archives, maybe cheaper gpus etc etc.
Maybe we will discover/implement algorithms that exploit memory trade offs once it becomes cheap.
Ligma 1 or ligma 2?


I think we can also ask why are transport costs so high? Isn’t it the case that those same companies say there isn’t demand so cost is high?
It sounds like a catch 22 to me


I think you can do ctrl shift v in some programs to strip down to text only


Something happened recentlyish… there was a time when india and US hegemony were politically aligned then russian war happened and India having far far deeper connection with russia, decided to show their loyalty to them.
Historically, USA has been either pro-Pakistan or pro-India because of the steategic location (next to China) and india pakistan fighting all the time.
Right now, its Pakistan’s term to be on “good list”.


I don’t believe there are any “good ones” in openai. I recently learned it was ilya who suggested the “AI is too dangerous” rhetoric to close down openai.
AI as a field has always been about making life better, not making more money. OpenAI has just made this whole thing sour.


Will EU use US data more or US will use EU’s?
And for what purposes? I wished those ministers would stop and question that


Reactionary in politics often means going “back to the good old days”. Stuff like back in feudal/monarchy people used to have honor, courage, and respect. We didn’t used to exploit nature. People were more happy etc. etc.
When in fact, LGBTQ rights were abysmal, rascism and slavery was the norm in “good old days”.
We should criticize the current system and move further ahead not backwards
Nobody asks anyone’s religeous opinions before acting in a rascist manner. First step is profiling (including race and clothing).
Also you make it sound like mentally challenged people deserve to be discriminated against


Yay! Capitalism saved the day


But it is though… AI was started long before computers were made.
AI at its core means “intelligent behaviour exhibited by non-natural/Artificial means”. This means that if your OS “intelligently” switches tasks on physical threads on cpu that’s AI. If you go to supermarket and the door opens when you go near it, that’s AI as well (actually this example was in our intro to AI textbook).
So computers are a special case of AI, so are calculators.


Machine intelligence and aritificial intelligence are the same thing. AI just changed its meaning too much i guess. What was AI few years ago, is now machine intelligence.
(Somebody correct me if i’m wrong, i know you want to…)


AfD is already #1 party in Germany


(In case someone does not get it)
Me: old macdonald had a farm. Vowels in celine dion’s name: exists
Womencs rights will decline if it serves the ruling class.
When women were not in workforce, our rulers were pro-contraceptives and abortion. So women would enter workforce and which would increase worker competition and decrease wages. Today when people are not having kids, and its starting to threaten the ruler’s workforce, they are now against abortions and contraceptives.
