In the current state of flux in both tech, and global geopolitics, I would not bet on *any* tech company being around in 100 years. No matter how big they are RN.

It does not take many bold but harebrained plans (could cough Neom Line) to drain even a trillion-dollar fund.

9 out of 14... with a sample that small, this is essentially indistinguishable random chance

No one thinks AI is that great

You have not been hanging around computational biologists lately. I can tell.

Seems pretty stupid to double down on pissing off people who are effectively godlike wizards who can eat your entire lifes data with ketchup before breakfast

Story by p k dick is what makes it so awesome

AI is what is powering the biological revolution. Try to keep up

Not scalable. Very slow low bandwidth. Expensive to use. Not actually encrypted nor anonymous; actually a privacy nightmare mich worse than credit cards. Other crypto solved these problems. Not crappy BTC. Everybody buys drugs with superior fintech these days.

Most people agree with you. But this guy has a Nobel Prize for his work in this specific area. And he argues they are conscious. https://youtu.be/IkdziSLYzHw

This is the root of the problem. Reverence and social deference for "faith". On other words: "Belief without evidence"

Everyone alive since the Pandemic and subsequent Disinformation Wars knows that "faith" is a toxic and stupid idea which is incompatible with modern global civilization.

Religion needs to be viewed with great suspicion. Science and the people who discovered real things about the world need to occupy that place of reverence.

(LLMs) a technology LeCun has repeatedly called "a dead end when it comes to superintelligence."

He keeps saying that but AFAICT the block diagram for his JEPA solution is the same thing just predicting next floating latent space token instead of discrete word-token. Which is very powerful and cool but I mean its not like he is getting rid of backprop or convolution or even attention really. He should stop attacking his older work and just be a rock star.

You could say by llama4 the genAI division had lost its legs. But the Metaverse division was way ahead of them...

I don't want people all over the world connecting to my bedroom. If I wanna host a website I pay an extra $8/mo for VPS

One word drives darknet markets: Drugs That is enough of a usecase

I voted against Biden in the Primary. But as POTUS he surrounded himself with competent people AND LISTENED TO THEM.

Yes he and they made sime bad choices (Afghanistan withdrawal, tepid Ukraine support) but not strategic damage and coupled with some very good decisions (block China access to GPUs, energy policy)
