The main reason "Nvidia chips control" doesn’t work is because laws will not prevent criminals from obtaining Nvidia chips nor breaking laws.

I don't think you are also including having AI lie of "hallucinating" to us which is an important point even if the article is only about having AI write code for an organization.

People with large swathes of equity in a company want people with near zero equity to act like they will be getting C-level rich off of their wage/salary if the company's business plan hits.

Founders are not desperate for talent. They are desperate for labor will shoulder vastly unequal labor for vastly underpaid compensation.

Capital always pushes for slaves. Labor can only push for using their smart phone during their bathroom break and not giving a shit about the final product as its success does not offer labor truly valued compensation.

Minimum wage is a thing but maximum wage is not in a civilization run by capital.

New comment by backtoyoujim in "Why ghosts wear clothes or white sheets"

backtoyoujim — Sat, 26 Oct 2024 23:02:55 +0000

Intellectually the leap to believing in ghosts at all is longer than the mere stutter step to believing then in ghosts' apparel, ghastly accoutrements, and ethereal monocles.

But surely an identity would need to projected onto a ghost to transform it from an unknown haunting in a sheet into a known phantasm recognized by its victim.

Like dimensional digital projectors from our soul or collective consciences onto the sheet to create a ghost seems to be the idea.
