Everyone should read "Spaces of Global Capitalism: A Theory of Uneven Geographical Development" by David Harvey. Written 25 years ago, it accurately predicts the data center trend - geography usurped by capatalistic growth.

As did the reMarkable support for that device...

LOL - agreed. I was a bit shocked by the title being the type that gets bonded with my devices. I still use my Windows laptop from 2017 and my M1 Macbook Pro from 2021 daily. Additionally, my Kindles are from 2010.

"The US wants China to stop distilling its AI models, stop smuggling its chips, and stop fine-tuning its open-source models for military use." Sure - you tell'em USA!...as if China is going to stop.

Your group looking for any other position types besides Applied Scientists?

Right! And what it 'really' is will push the philosophical 'hard problem' of consciousness. Will we be able to penetrate something human-like to know if it is conscious?

I think the term "world model" is a highly overloaded term. What does it really mean in your opinion?

Verizon network outages all over the country this afternoon - maybe that?

Agreed. You simply cannot pause an emerging technology as powerful as AI. We all know the US Government will not stop especially within defense circles much less other countries. This same dilemma has appeared multiple times and just has to evolve through learning and development.

Agreed - I have the very same issue as well. Google Keep is my goto mobile app for most of my note capture just due to its speed and ease of use. Now I have a few github utilities to download my Keep notes to markdown for Obsidian use later - but that isn't really ideal yet.

PS - all I can say about Canvas is 'wow'!!! Awesome feature!
