I recently found out that something like this would be illegal in many countries, Colombia for example.

Always with the justification of the 9 scariest words in the English language.

"We have released another mind-enslavement tool for your kids! It's the most potent ever!"

If/when civilization collapses, flights will be the first thing to go

Just sayin

Most people haven't even started with the biblical. How bout we start there before “widening it beyond biblical”?

The moral and spiritual depth of our society has only shallowed after centuries of doing this.

It hasn’t worked!

If you cannot tell a story why humans are more valuable than machines or animals, then you will begin to treat humans like machines and animals, or treat machines and animals like humans.

There are many modern examples leading to disastrous results.

I'm not convinced text is more modifiable and extensible than straight bits for a "superintelligence"

The benefit would be that the AI would have true hardware access. It would be unconstrained by gatekeeper protocols.

Would be very powerful, and thereby, potentially dangerous.

when the model predicts the next token, it doesn't predict the next bit.

I'm saying, eventually, it will... perhaps :)

i think the main blocker to this are the owners of the App Stores themselves. Apple won't let this happen if it can help it.

token efficiency could become irrelevant in the long term

Scams are bad. But cold-calling selling a genuine B2B product is a beautiful right-of-passage for anyone doing sales.

Teaches you grit, rejection, tonality, relationship-building, and the elation of closing a sale all-in-one.

It's also one of the few outbound marketing channels that isn't yet swallowed up by Meta/Google, and can be done by any scrappy teenager.

Unpopular opinion here, I'm sure.

I've long suspected that LLMs will just output pure bits eventually

The fastest, most surefire way to nuke your child's brain is to give them a screen.

There is certainly room for software to design a curriculum for the parent or teacher to use. We have tried (and failed) to find such a thing for our homeschool curriculum.

But giving the kid a screen? If you're even a midge honest with yourself, a screen will de-educate your child, leading to the opposite of the intended consequence.

parent-to-parent: this is slippery slope territory

just imo, I can't control you. God bless your family :)
