But AI can't recreate the physical sensation of me ramming that toad up your...

Slashdotters are welcome to bring the Trump side. But being Don's team shoots from the hip and either don't know what they are talking about or intentionally obfuscating to hide it from "the rigged lying press", it's hard to present enough actual details to analyze from them.

Shoot-from-hip and democracy don't get along very well. Voters and checks-and-balance systems like explicit planning and justification. "Just trust me, I'm smart" will cause democratic indigestion.

Trump wants it ran like a startup with a twist: Move fast and break people.

Where can I invest?

If AI is not in a bubble, I'll eat a live toad on live Youtube.

AIOT: double-fukt

This is how NASA powers some space-probes. Further from the sun, solar panels often can't do the job such that RTG's are used. But currently there's a shortage of P238 because the USA changed the way it processes nuclear material, and thus doesn't have it as a by-product like we used to. It now has to be explicitly manufactured, requiring expensive setups. We used to buy it from Russia for a while, but since the war that's part of the sanctions.

It might even improve the Ganges by killing bad bacteria.

...will deal with any real AGI threat: delay, deflect*, ignore, and blame.

In short, if AGI is possible, humanity is bigly hosed. Nice knowing you all, cheers to all the great trollin' and dupes...

* "But China & India pollute more" is a stupid GOP position. For one, it's 2-wrongs-make-a-right, and second, their pollution per person is actually LOWER than ours. It's penalizing population, not pollution itself.

now what could possibly go wrong? Hmmm. Those who pushed the IOT craze should be beaten with bricked IOT devices.

> just like your local grocery store, convenience store, etc. is allowed to offer house brand items

If there were only ONE grocery store brand in the area, it would be a problem.

You didn't learn from Microsoft's Borgification of competition.

What about if there is an international fee for deployment that is spent on clean-up bots? It's kind of like how cans, bottles, and electronics (some states) attach a disposal fee.

Reminds me of Mozilla and Firefox. Management needs attention span meds.

the nightmare scenario, known as the Kessler syndrome, is a debris cascade that makes it difficult or impossible to operate satellites in parts of the final frontier.

If Earth orbit is the final frontier, then we are fucked as a species. Did AI write that?
