Every time I read a Vitalik blog post, I end up wondering - how did a thinker so smart and so deep end up creating a technology that’s (now) so crass and shallow

Can't wait to cross Trump Ocean, land in Gulf of America, walk through New America (New Mexico) and shake Trump's hand for this incredible allocation of resources

The labs stole my work

The least I can expect is to get the labs work stolen too so I can reaccess intelligence based on my work for cheaper

You know the prompt

Me, casually scrolling on my phone, don’t

I have no way of knowing that you wanted the image to have a red wetsuit. I would just assume its a real image of a surfer in a red wetsuit

Man, AI images are solved

No signal in digital images anymore. If you didn’t see it with your own eyes, it likely never happened

This is why you can't leave judgment to technology, and why we have law enforcement and courts

"Plow into this crowd of people" is nominally wrong, but what if its actually "plow into this crowd of people that are hurting and robbing a family with two small children"

Your smart hammer refuses to let you smash into a glass window, but what if you were smashing into the glass window to save a child stuck in a fire?

Your tools refusing to do your bidding is an absurd idea in the first place

Imagine asking for permission to use your hammer

I genuinely don't know any work that has been taken over completely by AI without humans in the loop managing things

At this point, I don't even know if its possible

All I see is a flattening of the technical curve. Which is great, but the number of people who want to download an app is still the same. So all you have is 100,000 apps with no users instead of 10,000 apps with no users

You increased the amount of code written by 10x but unless there’s a 10x increase in demand, its worth nothing

I use AI a lot but my final output isn’t drastically different

Writing a lot of code doesn’t mean much when the moat was never “writing a lot of code”

I mean most of Chinese "wars" have been border issues. Most of these border issues themselves stem from badly drawn borders post colonial withdrawal. These are understandable, if not justifiable - countries tug at each other to figure out where their territories start/end. A hostile neighbor at your borders is a legitimate national threat

America's wars have been in countries so far away that they could've never posed any threat whatsoever to America as a nation.

Really not the same thing
