Lol.

There’s a ton of money at stake for the weathly aristocrats. They push politicians to delay or do things in favor of the companies above the people, and like I already said punishment is hard specifically because how do you fine someone with infinite money? They will just get more.

That’s not a punishment. I think that personal liability to the actual CEOs is the only way to get around this, leadership is generally never held responsible which means they can do whatever they want and the company bails out their greedy decisions.

It’s late stage capitalism and there’s no clear answer at least from my vantage point. Maybe if plug it into Claude it will give us a more coherent answer.

If we think back to the various lawsuits Facebook has gone through, they paid out about $10 or so per individual affected, totaling a few hundred million dollars, which they would make in a couple months for selling user data and whatnot.

This is something that every company gets away with mainly I think because of just how large their wealth actually is. It’s difficult to actually punish a machine that acts almost like infrastructure. Punishing an individual is easy.

I don’t know if there’s really a solution at this point, maybe we could’ve prevented this reality at some point in the past but I don’t think that without actual global collapse it would be something that can be retroactively changed, and I don’t know if global collapse would necessarily lead to a better future.

I think that for one, Zuckerberg should be in prison, if someone oversees a massive theft like this, I think they should be held criminally liable. Same the CEOs of Anthropic and OpenAI for their parts in the massive theft that took place. They should all be doing prison time.

The reason I don’t think they will is that their investors probably have a good amount of leverage over anyone who would prosecute them, so it would never make it that far.

The thickness of some caves in terms of genuine girth is truly something to marvel at.

I find it very ironic how passionate Claude is about not violating copyright while simultaneously Anthropic was sued and lost the lawsuit for illegally pirating millions of books.

Lol.

I covered three different and specific areas, the first and largest was on emergent flocking in predator/prey dynamics. For instance, how a herd of sheep behave in a seemingly protective way even though any single sheep has no direct plan. For a quick reference, I made an interactive tab you can directly use from the readme where you drag your fingers to control the herd and can change the controls, such as how many predators, number of prey, etc.

The final report is linked as well here, with the two other chapters, covering sand piles and earthquakes: https://nathanlangley.dev/swarmsim/

I encourage you to take a look at the benchmarks, boasting as low a score as 6% in some categories.

If anyone thinks they can make a worse model, I challenge you to try.

I used the examples of Latin to Spanish and English, or Old English to new English.

I say that to say, languages changing over time is to some people not actually something they believe happens. The facts are right there in front of you, but some people cannot have their minds changed no matter how much sense you make.
