Comment Re:They had a good run. (Score -1) 45

The workers tried overthrowing the government. Jewish Bolsheviks seized power and ruled the country. They then murdered ten million Christians in Ukraine.

This genocide was covered up by the New York Times, who won a Pulitzer Prize that they still proudly display today.

Why do you think Big H was so fixated on invading Russia and eliminating Jews?

The Bolsheviks openly declared their intention of conquering all of Europe. They tried, too, only to be stopped by the valiant Poles at the Vistula.

Everyone knows about H and the six million, but nobody has heard of Yagoda the Jew and the ten million. Make Yagoda famous!

Show me how your insights have enabled you to create more advanced functionality, and then I'll be interested.

Much of the critique seems irrelevant to AI other than LLMs, such as self-driving cars which map visual input to actions.

My wife and I bought a used 2024 Mini Cooper EV just last weekend, for roughly that amount. It seems well-built and is very fun to drive. However it is only useful for driving around town because its range is only 120 miles. Technologically this is clearly out of date. I couldn't help but think that if not for trade restrictions we could be paying the same for a new car with more advanced batteries and motors. In fact the Mini Cooper EV, the 2025 model with almost double the range, is not available in the US because of trade restrictions.

I never liked the framing of 'their brain hasn't finished maturing.' You could as well say that after 26 the brain begins its decline into risk aversion and senescence. Somebody has to go out and slay the beasts and fight the enemies and make the babies and young people in their physical prime did most of it.

I don't think he will or should receive a lifetime ban from any and all employment.

But as for MIT, or any other research institution with any prestige, my prediction is he is done.

As for Sam Altman, maybe you can point us to some example when he or OpenAI violated academic integrity by fabricating data like this?

The only way would be if there were a true breakthrough in tunneling costs (which from what I can tell the Boring Company did not achieve.)

I dunno, I guess we can argue which possibility is more microscopically feasible than the others - a political surge of collectivism enabling eminent domain on a national scale, or devoting housing-boom scale resources to acquire and redevelop land on the surface, or a magical tunneling machine.

Pretty sure the answer is and will remain "put wings on each railroad car and make it fly over all the congestion." It does convert an awful lot of jet fuel into CO2 though.
