Famous last words

Do you think this is true in private vs public health care as well?

Following this out of interest. I built an AI clone app for iOS, and faced a similar challenge around looking for a business case.

We are taking it into the visualization / interview prep space, where I think the tech offers a 10x improvement over a mirror or someone's imagination, instead of replacing another human, where it's 10^9X worse.

Andy Rachleff (Wealthfront, Benchmark) says venture-scale startups are about developing new tech and then finding business cases for them. It's helpful as founders to pattern match, watching how it's done in AI drones, AI iOS apps, etc.

Agreed. Even if it takes a long time for us to be riding rocket ships to visit our grandparents, we'll be benefiting from this technology way faster than that

You can do a lot with basic physics if you understand it well

I did one meal in between. I just make sure to eat a balanced meal (fruit and vegetables, proteins, some healthy carbs, healthy fats).

I'm thinking of moving to OMAD (one meal a day). I love eating big meals, and I find it helps my focus to not be thinking about eating during the day. Only challenge is not eating post workout

Check out The Surrender Experiment by Michael Singer. He talks about his discovery of and relationship with his inner voice / consciousness. He's also the tech founder of a public EMR startup. Super interesting read.

This week I actually did a 48 hour fast and then two 24 hour fasts. I ate between all of them, and a lot before. I personally find that hunger comes in waves. If you wait out the first wave, it doesn't continue to build. It will leave and then return, like someone interested in you at a bar.

It makes me think that our 3 meals a day culture responds to those initial waves of hunger, and likely leaves of eating more than we need to. Would make sense that there's an overall toll from that on lifespan.

This is super interesting. Where are you planning on taking/applying this?

From my own experience trying to build an intelligent digital twin startup based on the breakthrough in LLM's, I agree with LeCunn that LLMs are actually quite far from demonstrating the intelligence of house cats, and I myself likely jumped the gun by trying to emulate intelligent humans with the current stage of AI.

His AI predictions remind me of Prof. Rodney Brooks (MIT, Roomba) and his similarly cautious timelines for AI development. Brooks has a very strong track record over decades of being pretty accurate with his timelines.

What if LLMs are effective enough at assisting coders that they're spending less time on SO and instead pushing more open source code, which is more valuable for everyone?

Based on this conversation, how many of y'all are actual rocket scientists? I'm blown away by the expertise in some of these comments

What kind of work do you do that you're able to understand this stuff? Genuinely curious. I'm way beyond my depth trying to follow

People on earth are experiencing the Jetsons and the Flinstones at the same time

Seems impossible honestly. Like the Jetsons
