Can somebody explain "share of each sides opinions" as a statistic? Why am I solving a riddle to read an article?

Come to think of it, if an ASI figures out how to crack biology, genetic diversity may not even need to come from a giant human population.

Because pending an absolute loss of control of a super intelligent model, the ultra wealthy have enough control of the matter on Earth to merge with the AI, probably.

I mean there are a lot of paradoxes around AI. The chief two among which are:

1. the goal of ai is to end capitalism by disrupting scarcity in economics

2. if ai can build a closed system that prints ai factories, the 99% of humanity essentially are just genetic diversity live stock.

Honestly: our media and film is largely pretty terrible. The arts may be worth a lament.

Honestly: fuck these people. In the span of a demo they have dogwhistled the market to:

- Build advertising on their platform.

- Build AI girlfriends on their platform.

Gross. I mean it's not like the market isn't already thinking of doing that, it's not a leap of a conclusion. Just kind of gross to be on the nose about it with the content and choice of demos.

I am reminded of Life 3.0 by Max Tegmark, and the Omega Team's later shenanigans in stoking a unified world order:

- Claiming control of all the news outlets

- Pushing a common narrative among all of them, pushing everybody towards basically centrism, de-escalation and a mixture of capitalism and social responsibility.

I have no help to offer, but as a bystander who loves Rust I am very hopeful good things come of this for you @verdagon!

New benchmark unlocked, "DTD": deaths to damages

I think the death of Apple (and the birth of modern Apple) was iOS 7. Skeuomorphism, Steve Jobs being freshly deceased (RIP). The UI looked and felt like an undergraduate design project. The minimalism was pretentious and out of touch, and it's only gotten worse in my opinion.

intercom systems were pretty ubiquitous in the 90's and 00's...

Honestly, you're right.
