>Batteries are coming, and will solve it, but it will still take time for them to be come cheap enough.

How long is the hope those batteries will last? There's surely no way Finland can run off battery power for even one month, much less a whole winter.

edit: perhaps I misunderstood and your comment on batteries was more related to the reliability of wind?

At least for nuclear, no. The cost is overwhelmingly in the construction rather than the operation so it makes sense to run it all the time. With diverse green sources while their fluctuations are less correlated than just adding more solar you still have the potential for all of them to have a lull at the same time.

If you can increase the fidelity of your research model (in-silico, murine, etc) to real life humans then there are fewer false leads.

Yes there's still useful work only mathematicians can do, what is the incentive system that encourages them to do it? Currently, none.

For my sanity I don't follow US politics too closely, if "super intelligence" is truly being pushed hard then it seems reasonable to assume the reason why is to assert control of truth. Who are you to disagree with Super Intelligence when it tells you that Haitians are eating dogs?

Yes and knowledge of how terrible Leopold was is not uncommon, yes less well known than "Hitler was bad" but that's just about as close to a universally accepted truth as we've managed as a species, it's not a useful benchmark.

Mythos is what they thought was too dangerous to release, fable was what they made after they worked on cybersecurity detection. As they say in the notes, this version of sonnet now has a similar screening process

The US also doesn't have free trade following the same criteria, labeling requirements differ by state, licensing regimes are different, the same kind of challenges that exist in Canada

Canada needs to reduce its exposure to the US market, giving resources to the companies harmed by the tariffs doesn't accomplish that

This implies that the US respects the agreements it signs

I think this needs a before and after example

Normally people have feelings about things before they are able to put them into words, I would imagine if you were asked a question like "what city would you most like to visit" then unless you've already thought about it a lot, then you would have to do substantial non-verbal thinking before you can come up with an answer, and once you have the answer you may respond "my favorite city is X" and you decided what X would be before you started the sentence.

Also, it sounds like the kind of thing that sells. Any company with a customer support chat is a potential user of this model, any large company may be interested in getting a mistral installed set-up for handling without needing to send client info over the web. Installing those kinds of local systems seems to be what butters Mistral's bread at the moment.

It would, leading to more resources going towards producing those goods. A UBI is price signal indicating the needs no/low income people matter.

Maybe it would be too politically unpopular, lead to too much spending on vices, or some other issue, but inflation shouldn't be a concern unless those particular goods are of a fixed quantity over the long term.

Depending on the nature of the study, there's lots of scientific disciplines where it's trivial to get populations in the millions. I got to see a fresh new student's poster where they had a p-value in the range of 10^-146 because every cell in their experiment was counted as it's own sample.
