Well we all don’t have a government pursuing renewable that makes power costs predictably drop over time. Efficiency matters when I’m looking at my power bill thay went up because of a near by data center being built

Good news, we won’t have to feed them with tax dollars. Bad news is the people building data centers that are part of a kill chain are now feeding the soldiers

Stable for who though? Stability has not been my lived experience in the states.

“Engaged and organized” comes after delivering a compelling vision. I’ve listened to Platner and he’s a better communicator than any corporate dem because his message to the working class is practically gospel

AOC plays ball with the DNC though. But yeah, they treat her like shit because she’s not corporate backed.

My bet is these companies are doing layoffs but calling it AI

More like the opposite: paying telcos to stop rolling out broadband and promise to roll out copper instead

The elephant’s name? Luigi.

This is SpaceX so I assume they meant cybertruck

So you’re saying it was Space Jesus?

Let’s say I agree the concept of mind is relative, would you be willing to accept a rock has a mind?

Let me restate the point differently: lowering the bar for what you consider intelligence doesn’t make the AI sound any smarter.

By defaming intelligence you aren’t making the AI sound smarter. But you are making yourself the fool.

“If the west doesn’t build it then China will” is a claim to a timeline. And in the context of governments, most would assume you’re talking about less than 100 years.

Because asking AI to do humans is still uncanny. Pixar and Ghibli was already ruined by AI…

Considering it was under Mao that Xi’s family was exiled it is a rather salient comparison.

Edit: and we can know how much power Mao had by how big of a power vacuum he left. The fact of the matter is it is a single party republic, and that’s why Mao was replaced with someone more sensible. If there was a sizable power vacuum things would not have turned out this way.

I think what’s interesting is it sounds like the battery is a set of storage containers. My guess is it supports battery swapping, so while the range might be small, it can refuel as part of exchanging cargo

I mean at least 1/3 of Americans say it’s why we have the 2nd amendment. And 2/3 of the Supreme Court would likely agree, just they wouldn’t admit we are at that point where it is necessary. It’s ingrained in our culture down to the American revolution. But yeah, whenever leftist groups arm themselves they get wiped out, see the Black Panthers as an example.

Xi has no more absolute power over the government than Mao had (who was forced to step aside). And saying it is in no way democratic is patently false considering all their politicians need to be elected in at the local level. Lastly, Xi’s family was exiled from Beijing and they survived only to have Xi become the leader.

Psychedelics doesn’t magically make a bad person into a good person, just look at Joe Rogan. Though I am all for putting the entire admin deep into a k-hole that they will never escape from

Yeah, it’s only our fault if they die a peaceful death instead of going to trial
