This is simple-munded nonsense.

“You’re either with us or against us.”

It’s binary thinking garbage.

You should reevaluate your Internet usage and how addicted to outrage you are.

Lmfao, so now he’s not allowed to do or say anything to influence international relations unless it has your personal stamp of approval?

Not every statement is designed to appeal to you personally.

If years from now you don’t vote for Carney because of this tweet, everyone will look at you extremely confused.

This is just ragebait from OP, nothing more.

He’s literally praising him to try and convince Trump to keep supporting Ukraine.

That alone is good enough reason.

You know what absolutely did not convince Trump to keep supporting Ukraine? This stupid ass fucking tweet.

You literally don’t know that. Lots of people have accused Mark Rutte of pandering to Trump, but from all reporting it’s worked because Trump is actually that vane. Reminding him that one of his closest supporters vehemently supported Ukraine has a chance of moving the needle.

Also, guess what. Carney doesn’t need Lindsey Graham’s vote or Donald Trump’s vote to keep his position. He needs our votes, so maybe praising someone who wanted the USA to invade Canada is actually really stupid politics.

Lmfao “why isn’t carney pandering to us, we’re the reactionarily outraged!”

I think you’re confusing him for PP, Carney is the one who behaves like an adult.

Lmfao, “the best path forward is one of naiivey doing whatever seems most right to outside observers”.

Again, give up the rageahol, and grow up.

You know what’s quite frankly more important right now then pissing and moaning about Graham’s sycophantic public statements to please Trump?

Convincing Trump to keep supporting Ukraine.

Indignant outrage is a cheap high, not smart politics.

Lol everyone in this thread is acting like an outrage addicted moron.

Learn how to play politics dumbasses, sometimes it involves doing and saying distasteful things.

Grow up.

They can do pre-fabricated architecture, but they haven’t cracked it.

Current prefabricated construction (especially in the context of homes / housing) is still limited in terms of customization and/or requires a huge amount of manual architecture / engineering work, and the consumer facing customization software is still pretty garbage.

People still often use contractors because they want the level of customization they bring, even when off the shelf options are available.

Don’t get me wrong I have massive faith in prefab construction in terms of infrastructure projects like bridges and elevated guideways etc where you have a design team doing them all up front and sending them off to be made at a factory and assembled on site, but I haven’t seen anything in terms of home construction that seems revolutionary from prefab yet.

It really feels like the wrong technology for the job.

What 3D printing is great at is having one machine, that can produce a billion different parts.

i.e. with my one printer, I can print hooks, or replacement parts that no longer exist or custom organizer that fit exactly my stuff and situation.

It’s fantastic for printing a massive variety of low volume parts / one offs.

It’s not great at printing those things cheaply, or in modular parts (it can be done but it’s often not because it’s a lot of extra effort for one offs). Which in housing, people want cheap (because it’s the most expensive thing they’ll buy), and they want it to be adaptable and changeable.

If anything I suspect an actual housing revolution could come from pre-fab housing, made of a highly customizable and modular component system, and slick design software, but no one has cracked all the pieces required to implement that yet.

If you are suggesting that LLMs are sentient, then this isn’t a “mild disagreement”, it’s the San Andreas fault.

“If you are suggesting X is black then we’re mortal enemies”

Theres more nuance then black and white, don’t be so internet brained.

There are so many technological leaps that have to happen before AGI can become real that I am certain that neither of us will see that day.

Name them if you’re so confident.

We’re already operating models with simulated neurons on the order of magnitude as brains. Unless you plan on dying this decade or the next, there’s a reasonably likely chance we’ll live to see AGI.

No one has claimed this is sentient, but that doesn’t mean that it’s not interesting, nor does it mean that it’s not interesting that a structure that seems to function similarly to one in our brain emerged.simply from the way they trained it.

Lol keep putting everyone who mildly disagrees with you into a bucket and othering them, totally normal healthy behaviour that leads to good outcomes, not exactly what has lead to the dysfunctional right wing of America.

I’ve made no such claims, I just actually read articles and think about them with an open mind. You’re welcome to run around screaming thought terminating phrases in all caps all you want, but I’m gonna call you out when you do.

Keep boldly DECLARING bankruptcy bud.

It doesn’t make you sound smart nor make anyone agree with the point you’re trying to express, it makes you sound insecure.

You know what else sounds like cache when you refer to it reductively? The human brain’s work space.

The literal entire end of the post goes into how it differs from the human brain and the implications and non-implications about consciousness. It’s a lot more nuanced than labelling it “NOT intelligent”.

Genuinely one of the most interesting developments / discoveries I’ve read.

It’s also wild that we may have literally matrixed a fruit fly and no one is talking about it.

This isn’t an argument, it’s a thought terminating phrase.

I would suggest reading the full article before commenting.

1. Is a completely different question that has absolutely zero to do with disc based games, and the answer to that question is readily available in the form of Right To Repair legislation.

Pure OOP without first class functions sucks fucking ass.

Top AI researchers should go fuck themselves right to hell for handwaving away and ignoring the inherent problems with their work while plowing ahead full steam so they can get personally rich.

Cory Doctor’s recent book on Centaurs and Reverse Centaurs is worth reading.

The core idea of that is that centaurs are a human top and machine / alien body, they’re effectively augmented humans with all this technology to help them excel.

Reverse Centaurs are human bodies and machine / alien tops, where the humans are just checking the work of systems and are subservient to them. He points out that that’s one of the fundamental differences between Amazon and the Postal Service is that in the case of Amazon drivers, they basically function as a reverse Centaurs where they are just an appendage of the delivery car, tracked and managed by that car, to do the tasks the car can’t do on its own.
