By definition this means that you’re going to get subpar results for difficult queries. Anything too complicated will get a lightweight model response to save on capacity. Or an outright refusal which is also becoming more common.

New models are meaningless in this context because by definition the most impressive examples from the marketing material will not be consistently reproducible by users. The more users who try to get these fantastically complex outputs the more those outputs get throttled.

Or in Palestine, for that matter.

This is just the beginning.

Oddly enough it barely moved the price at the time. I think it’s fair to say that this is a highly suspicious sequence of events.

I would love to know what % of PACs - weighted by size (or “voice”, as you call it) - are operated as truly grassroots organizations with a normal distribution of contribution size. I’d put my money on <5%.

My solution is pretty simple. Do away with political donations altogether. People can still get together and make signs and go door to door for a candidate. And split the cost of pizza among themselves.

It’s effectively a decoy to distract people that “know something’s wrong” from looking at the real source of our governance problems: Citizens United. Throw in a little generational resentment for division purposes and now you’re really cooking.

During the renaissance western thinkers pieced together lost information and we got the scientific revolution.

Kind of wild that you completely ignored the example I gave of exactly this happening in my original comment.

And speaking of people whose salary dictates their understanding of something, let’s talk about Sam Altman and the rest of SV currently spinning a fairytale about AI which just so happens to justify astronomical valuations for their companies.

We’re in what I would call the “dark ages” of tech. There will be a new renaissance led by those who used this as an opportunity to build skills and tools that are genuinely useful and ingenious.

If you keep a long-term horizon this is the perfect opportunity to work on a solo project in stealth mode. Or build professional connections with others who see things the way you do.

Have fun with your ruby-Goldberg machines.

It doesn’t matter if you think it’s all going to work out and AI will bring an unprecedented era of abundance. That is not the current state.

The current state is: Nearly all productivity growth since 1980 has gone to shareholders, not workers: https://www.epi.org/productivity-pay-gap/

Now what do you think happens when we dramatically expand productivity with AI? Well, we’re already seeing unprecedented layoffs in tech. And it’s easy to draw the conclusion that unless something structural changes all of the productivity gains from AI will go to investors not workers. Leaving said workers without access to healthcare or housing.

And of course let’s not forget that the tech elite in question supported Trump in the last election - someone who has done everything in his power to reduce healthcare access among the low income / unemployed population. This isn’t fucking rocket science guys.
