Doesn't matter which is which, since the "treatment" to rein in the disabling extremes of ADHD would still include limiting social media.

Is not an "honest mistake". It is a deal-breaker.
Given how ICE is operating, I would say the US _has_ abandoned basic human right some time ago. Of course, all the morons on the right expect the new GeStaPo to only go after people they do not like, but that will not last.
Don't try to convince a person that cannot do basic math with math. Also, _very_ few people spend more than $400 per month on coffee.
Those $400 are not going to happen, not even in the west. And that is why the US based LLMs will all be economic disasters. Yes, companies like Microsoft and Google may survive the crash, but that is because they have reserves and other sources of revenue.
It is unlike it is done by distilling. The critical thing for model quality is training data clean-up. The Chinese can just steal the whole Internet, same as the US AI companies did. And the Chinese have a lot of manpower to do the cleanup and do it, except probably for some political topics, way better.
The major advantage is the energy. But what do you do when the wind isn't blowing or the sun isn't shining?
The Chinese have a lot of dessert. And they are putting storage-backed solar in it. That the sun doesn't shine in the dessert for longer than the night is basically not happening. The Chinese also have a lot of experience with really long HVDC transmission.
You are just butt-hurt not everybody is in love with your new fetish. How pathetic.
And no, the US cannot reasonably occupy Iran. It would break the US military and economy
You are vastly underestimating the power of the US military. An occupation would be easier than Iraq OR Afghanistan, because there won't be outside funding for an insurgency, and because the vast majority of Iranians already hate their government.
Hahahaha, no. But the US military capability is routinely vastly overestimated. The reason for all those bombing campaigns? Because that is essentially the only thing it can really do.
Agreed. (Again? What is happening?)
If you have reasonable worker protections in place, unions are redundant and mostly cause problems. In Europe, worker protection is typically at least reasonable. In the US, it very much is not.
and you still don't see the value of unions, I don't know what to say.
I think a lot of people just fetishize information technology to a degree that they lose all perspective and all sanity.
Lets remove all the bullshit form your statement and state the core, shall we?
AI is a tool. It need to be used competently to produce good results. It is also not the thing that solves every problem.
You are mistaken. You cannot fix LLMs via guardrails, that is fundamentally impossible.
in the free market businesses form and compete for consumer money with other businesses, it is the competition that is pro consumer. Unions, like any other political formation, exists to protect special interests, preventing businesses from competing to the best of their ability and pushing prices up - anti consumer.
That is a massive problem. If you trade speed for quality, you will build up technological debt. Tech debt is a silent, slow killer. At some point it cannot be fixed anymore, you can just throw away the thing. And that may kill you.
But there are uses where speed is king, like malware creation. We have seen malware created from patches very fast with LLMs. The malware will be low quality code, but that does not matter for malware. Because once you are in the target, you install a (very much not LLM created) root kit to take over.
Some people have a great ambition: to build something that will last, at least until they've finished building it.
