People claim to be effective altruists when they can’t claim that they’re altruists.

And somebody buying from the scammer could get a legitimate card, thus allowing the scammer to blend in.

To be fair to LLMs they get the text as a series of tokens, so when you type strawberry, the see 🍓 or something. What works better as a counterexample are variations of the river crossing puzzle changed to be trivial.

Could be 70% overall, but only half of the tasks it’s good at.

It would open up using Pokémon as an example of prior art in court.

Eh, the problem is inherent to how this particular market works. Once a game is developed, the cost to distribute it further are negligible compared to the development costs. This also means that a single game can, theoretically, satisfy the entire market. Hence, at any given time, only small percentage of games are successful.

He’s imagining them as physical things that can be hurt. And apparently, the voices can feel his violent fantasies. At least, that’s what’s implied by the story.

What’s that, and why should it be destroyed?

Million dollar company sounds impressive, but I don’t think that is impressive. Like twenty employees already imply a million or more in expenses annually, and require corresponding revenue to sustain.

More like a terabyte.

In addition, we haven’t even come up with a definition of intelligence.

Well, we’re still at least one breakthrough away from AGI, and we don’t even know how it will go from there. Could be that humans are already near the maximum of what is possible intelligence wise. As in, the smartest being possible is not that much smarter than the average human. In which case, AGI taking over the world would not be a given.

Essentially, talking about the threat posed by ASI is like talking about the threat posed by Cthulhu.

AI companies are buying up all of the RAM in a futile bit to reach AGI.

They own a font, which is a way of writing the letters. Wondering though, how many Japanese fonts are there?

This raises the question: Is there somebody else on that sub posting about the special election? There should be enough Tennesseans that at least one of them should post there.

Same way you short anything else, you borrow it, sell it, and then buy it back once the price has dropped, and return it.

Investors could be bailed out. As in you invested 10e11$, so now the government gives you that money back.

Eh, that could also include sales revenue, of which Valve pays out 70% to right holders.

Market cap is just share price times the number of shares. Can potentially be completely divorced from how well your company is actually doing. Conversely, a drop or rise in market cap doesn’t have to mean your company is doing better or worse. If you’re selling shovels, you still have the money when the music stops.

I bury corpses.

Hmm, that actually sounds like you run body disposal for organized crime.
