Ok, then according to you What is AI? What is "talking"? What is "understanding"?

The "defense against tyranny" argument for the 2nd amendment was borne out of individual regulated state militias defending against a federal army, not each individual being free to exercise their will as they see fit.

>Hard to weld doors shut on peoples homes if they have shotguns.

This point is always brought up but is never argued to its natural conclusion.

On the surface it seems you are implying that citizens should have powerful guns so they can threaten and potentially kill police officers trying to do something despotic. However if someone did that, the police would just crack down 10x as hard on that individual with more powerful, government purchased guns and arrest them for life. No matter what guns people are allowed to have, it's not a deterrent against despotism on an individual level.

The argument that the point of the 2nd amendment is for the citizenry to defend against government power is ridiculous. Why would a blueprint for a government install protections to make sure it can be violently overthrown, when the rest of the constitution is entirely focused on ensuring the consent of the people is funneled up to government power in a non-violent matter? To argue that that's the point of the 2nd amendment implies the founders didn't believe that the Constitution would be effective in forming a representative democracy.

In the arts, music, graphic design, animation, 3D models, and eventually realistic looking video seem to be the clear next steps.

The key to AI art is that while the universe is infinitely complex, the visual form of most things humans can recognize follow a collection of natural patterns. Anything humans can do can be computed, the only issue is being able to set up the scope for the patterns we seek to replicate. For games like chess, a bit easier, for images that represent label-able things, harder but still manageable. The main problem of making things beyond this is giving a valid scope to the whole problem: what patterns, precisely, do we intend to replicate?

That's because all the top companies in any sector in China are subsidized and heavily supported by the government. The distribution isn't as organic, it's more a matter of in China, crossing the threshold to being the "golden child" and being guaranteed success right after.

One interesting next step to the idea is to indicate a continuity of meaning via the edits. For example, for each randomly selected gif, have the next gif share at least one tag. This allows each vaguely connected gif to create a randomly generated narrative by their connected meaning.

It's hard to get out of that mindset, especially as a young new hire.

In the United States, your job is very closely tied to your livelihood due to high rents, few social support structures, health insurance often tied to your job, etc.

There's a model of thinking taught in schools and universities that teaches individuals to defer helplessly to their superiors, to be subservient to a fault and respect hierarchies as sacrosanct. When someone abuses that hierarchy, one either has to unlearn their programming, or assume the burden of the imposition of value on their psyche.

People already assumed things described as having gone perfectly are exaggerated and embellished.

You'd have to be naïve to assume the standard of living in Western countries today is comparable to how it was in the 1950s.

For those who believe crypto and web3 is the future, has any comparable emerging technology been met with as many scandals and busts in so little time?

He keeps saying AR/VR but Facebook has made no efforts in the AR space, which seems to be a more realistic model for his metaverse than VR.
