It’s more akin to giving up smoking.

No. And this reminds me of the “meat proxies” we see now who are “smart” and “powerful” using Claude.

Heh yeah. Sounded to me like “I agree with everything but realized this is a right wing article and just can’t.. so here’s a left wing rage bait instead”

This is the least professional Video I’ve ever seen for anything like this. I can’t even follow what’s happening on screen.

Very little tbh in the ones that did well. The provinces that do well end up feeding and transferring money over to others.

I’ve been in municipalities and provinces running healthy surpluses and the economy booms during those times. People do better and schools are better run and so on. And for that matter, Canada boomed after the government fixed the budget in the late 90s. We went south again when the new government showed a complete lack of respect for money.

That may be anthropomorphism things. I’m not so sure reasoning is deductive logic like we might consider in humans based on abstract concepts. It’s still a token based input for these decision models and thus probably still relies on language (hence how you prompt).

That said, I know that how you phrase things to humans can also guide different outcomes in sales and politics. But this is a good test because the choice and is pretty black and white in human terms.

People don’t realize just how much of our economy is driven by oil. Nearly all of it.

Who buys the hundreds of trillions in government bonds? The USA has a lot of buyers, they’re lucky as that’s not the case everywhere. Sometimes the spending is too out of control and there aren’t enough organic buyers. That’s when central banks come in and go brrrr and money supply increases.

I have an AppleTV because I never want to plug my TV into the internet. I just need a box that can stream videos. Does it need to have AI? No. It really doesn’t. I wish Apple just dropped all this junk and figured out what they want that TV app to do.

It’s still search. They had an AI based search for quite some time. Now it spits out a summary.

You can have a safe library that does this and then enforce its usage with a linter or something. Template engines print strings and escape them under the hood.
