Middle management is at most danger of being replaced by AI. The C suite will also shrink rapidly, along with their salaries.


It’s not about availability, it’s about marketing. I don’t stumble across porn games on steam, but I regularly do on Epic.


Every 10th item on rhe epic store is soft core FMV fantasy girlfriend porn.
This is a Flying Car. Musk has built a Fast and Furious jumping stunt car.
hard to fault him based on on fossil fuels
It’s not at all hard. He’s only green for government subsidies.
Falcon 9: Uses refined kerosene (RP-1) and liquid oxygen (LOX). Each launch burns about 112 tons of kerosene and releases roughly 336 tons of CO₂.
Starship & Super Heavy: Uses liquid methane (CH₄) and liquid oxygen (LOX) in its Raptor engines. A full launch emits around 3,500 to 76,000 metric tons of CO₂.
xAI has installed 59 natural gas turbines for its Colossus 2 data center generating between 6.4 million and 8 million tons of CO2 equivalent emissions per year if operated full-time


The DHS is less xenophobic about South Africans than Chinese.


Its probably less the performance of the AI model, more the data leaked to the Chinese government.


They thought they sold tokens, they actually sell marginally (6 months lead) improved models.


But look how dangerous these models are. They need to be regulated so that only responsible closed model providers can produce them.
Just ignore that the responsible closed model providers are the ones opening their sandboxes and training their models on blackhat sources.
Oh, facebook will steal the data even if they say they won’t. What’s interesting is they put a price on blatant prompt copying.
Meta had an explicit higher price for using their model without retention of prompts for training. This all but confirms your theory.
Then people are surprised that claude code gets better at coding
More bags, higher delivery fee makes sense. But it doesn’t matter if it’s 2lb of ramen or 2lb of lobster.
It’s the whole suite of Adobe, not just photoshop
It seems that the driver doesn’t need to know the value of the box they are delivering. They should expect the same tip from a $3 box and a $300.


In theory the “reasoning” part doesn’t need a knowledge update.
Cost/benefit maybe the knowledge update only needs something every 5 years.
Basically I can see a world where inference is provided and consumed at cost. I can’t see one where customers are willing to cough up billions for a slight increase in the knowledge base.


Is it? It’s vital to the tech giants marketing and trillion dollar valuation. But I don’t think it’s vital to most of their clients anymore.


A natural zoonotic path does not (yet) exist. It is correct to say none has been found.
the Huanan Market in Wuhan was the early and main epicentre of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.
There you are.
there is no indication that the Wuhan Institute of Virology had studied viruses similar to SARS‐CoV‐2 or artificially modified coronaviruses before the COVID‐19 pandemic
This part of the paper is out of date. We now know there was a subaward to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, to understand how bat coronaviruses have the potential to become transmissible to the human population.
When the screen is fully floppy, that’s when Im in. Flexible electronic paper exists. Why not in a phone?
