That's right. Punishment is the only way to deter the crowd of grifters. They act like raiding the government is risk free, because it is. No one of note in US politics or the Forbes 100 has been put in jail for a very long time. Why would they behave? There is no incentive to follow the law, and unlimited profits and power is too much to resist.

I like TUIs, they are much easier to sandbox than some native app or webapp.

The us system of government and many of its agencies are under attack by an administration that elon helped secure a win for. Excuse me for getting a little emotional towards a Nazi who supports the concentration camps we have on US soil.

I'll make every effort to avoid his products and bad mouth him every single time his name comes up.

he is hated.

i think you bar is too high. i would argue dogs, cows, and pigs are conscious. it doesn't seem unreasonable to build an artificial system capable of reproducing and out competing a cow at doing cow things.

i don't think LLMs are the entire answer, but they might be part of the solution. To me, LLMs feel a lot like system 2. I don't see a lot of people trying to build system 1. i don't think you can have consciousness without a body to keep alive and reward.

the government is made up of the people. the people are mostly greedy because our culture worships wealth. broken people, broken culture, broken government.

Well Stripe is owned by Thiel, I'm sure there is some nefarious reason he wants to see everyone's chat history.
