Seems like this article had a large impact on your understanding of the housing system. Could you post it so that others can read it too?

oil is a commodity, and yet the oil industry is massive and has multiple major players

not sure what this sort of naval gazing accomplishes. software companies are designing their products around user preferences. you or anyone else are welcome to create the kind of software you think we "should" have, but if it doesn't line up with the revealed preferences of the users then I'm not sure what the point is

giving a single counter example does not mean "most of the world" is not true here

do you really think that if I said "he is american" that 96% of the world isn't going to think I mean the USA?

Thanks for the insight. Very cool to get your perspective on this

Agreed, blind people and sighted people are able to experience different kinds of beauty that are inaccessible to each other. As a sighted person, if there was a technology that could describe the beauty that a blind person experiences in a given moment I would think that would be pretty cool to try.

> Please, don't hype accessibility just for your personal fun. There are people out there with real problems, and dangling impossible solutions before their "eyes" is pretty much cruel

Do you think it's going to be impossible forever? bandwidth and latency seem like the surest things to improve in AI tech

The thesis is simple: these programs are smart now, but unreliable when executing complex, multi-step tasks. If that improves (whether because the models get so smart that they never make a mistake in the first place, or because they get good enough at checking their work and correcting it), we can give them control over a computer and run them in a loop in order to function as drop-in remote workers.

The economic growth would then come from every business having access to a limitless supply of tireless, cheap, highly intelligent knowledge workers

I don't think this is true

lol you got me

I'm starting to think there's no difference between this website and reddit

there are ways to support yourself without supporting a corporation

you'd rather everyone die than to see experience requirements for certain jobs go up?

if y'all think that being in the dark about market wages is going to result in employers offering higher salaries then I don't know what to tell you

it wouldn't surprise me if what we think of as intelligence is nothing more than brute force attempts at prediction with educated guesses
