Exactly. I think this is salty people who desperately want the AI bubble to pop and for it all to be a scam of 'stochastic parrots' and a modern Mechanical Turk. It somehow offends their humanity and they are sure there is a vast capitalist conspiracy to defraud everyone. The fact is some asshats like Altman are indeed overhyping BUT that does not change the fact that my team of programmers got cut by 30% yet we are kicking out bug fixes and new features faster than ever. At higher quality too because now a lazy developer isn't half-assing the testcases.

Agreed 100% about hard to predict. I love this analogy from Geoffrey Hinton: it is like driving in a fog. Your headlights see only a few meters ahead and then there is an impenetrable wall of fog. Anyone who tells you they can see exactly where the road is heading a mile ahead is selling you something.

If like me you use VirtualBox you should hold off on this kernel upgrade until you know VirtualBox is ready for it

More relevant, Commerce is run by Howard Lutnik, who BBC just implicated heavily about getting Epstein services and lying to Congress. And who unilaterally decided Anthropic (run by Dario who is Democrat and therefore an Enemy of the State) could not release Fable for weeks until they bent the knee. And who approved OpenAI ChatGPT5.6 saying they did not even need government approval. Because Sam Altman already bend the knee.

And how TF is Vbasic more prevalent than Perl?

Agreed. But this should be a Fedora Spin so those who want it can get it easily and thise who do not, need not even see it.

FWIW, this Nobel Laureate (Hinton) disagrees with you about consciousness. Maybe you should be less certain about your credences.

Anyway, there was some discussion about the Goblin Problem and its relation to consciousness it in the latest Last Week in AI. Always worth a listen.

Remember Solyndra?

Jesus, this is a brain-dead take. Anthropic is the AFAICT only for-profit company that takes AI safety and alignment seriously.

Dario (and others') work on Constitutional AI is AFAICT the only realistic solution to this very real engineering problem. And they publish what could be their secret-sauce constitution, verbatim, under a Creative Commons license.

This. And note the headlines for what afaict is the same product. For Meta they are enabling sexual predators. For Apple they are ... making style and design choices?

As a person who worked mightily hard for over a year on a cross functional team with top management attention to bring a product into official FedRAMP compliance... for all the blood sweat weekends late nights documenting automating improving processes and tooling... FUCK YOU Microsoft for cheating your way in and endangering your country and your customers in the process. FUCK. YOU.

The Black Blade was forged a million billion years ago. Its cosmic story goes on for eternity. It master is its slave. Hahahahahaaaaaa
