I’m driving, it’s difficult to put them on the same chart and normalize. But they are very similar. There are differences in methodology (housing, healthcare) but those generally add a small amount to US inflation chained index vs HICP.
They are also very upset with Elon's very public shift away from the current Left.
It's Elon derangement syndrome.
These people are power mad and want to impose their psychological issues upon all of society.
They are a cancer.
I get it, engineering trains us to look for failure modes, but my god try to have a little amazement at the progress.
FFS.
It is strange and horrible that it is become like that, but that's where we are.
More sectors than one would think are primarily compliance businesses.
It's a guess as to the root cause.
My guess is that it just isn't competitive and so Twitch can't monetize.
Or maybe it is the demographic. But the ads network is my first guess.
Then allow companies or open source software to create whatever value add they want on top of these APIs.
That sounds like a minimalist launch.
"For the pilot participants will have to enter their own financial information, the I.R.S. said."
It is indeed a complete waste of taxpayer money unless they actually prefill with the IRS' data.
Shocking.
The copyright claims are spurious, the laws were never written with such powerful algorithms in mind. If copyright applies to training, and if law is based upon principles instead of raw power then such a ruling would lead to strange places.
Bravo.
But more importantly, this needs to be as a percentage of the total infrastructure (or real estate to make it easier to compute) in the area.
IIUC as a percentage of total real estate value the amount of damage has been going down over time, as one would expect.
Cool website though!
You think this is why Google is so far behind?
Not one of them through inheritance. Sure, you have the waltons a little lower on the list.
As a person who started in the bottom decile of wealth I want to hate inheritance at least as much as the next person. But at first glance it sure doesn't look good for these "researchers".
In a more AI maximal case it will solve new problems, the increase in GDP from this case is very large.
They had a couple of people on the board who had no right being there. Sam wanted them gone and they struck first by somehow getting Ilya on their side. They smeared Sam in hopes that he would slink away, but he had build so much goodwill with his employees that they wouldn't let it stand.
They probably had smeared people before and it had worked. I'm thrilled it didn't work for them this time and they got ousted.
"At 31 years old, Charlie Munger was divorced, broke, and burying his 9 year old son, who had died from cancer"
But he persevered to become one of the most successful people on the planet.
No doubt he was a brilliant human and that helped tremendously, but he didn't think of himself as a victim.
They fixed the glitch.
OpenAI had grown massively since some of the board members were installed. Some of them were simply not the caliber of people that one would have running such a prestigious institution, especially not with the weight they had due to the board being depopulated. Sam realized this and maybe was attempting to address the issue.
Some of the members (ahem, Helen, Tasha and to a lesser extent Adam) liked their positions and struck first, probably convincing poor Ilya that this was about AI safety.
Being lightweights they did not do any pre-work or planning, they just plowed ahead. They didn't think through that Sam and Greg have added tremendous value to the company and that the company would favor them far over the board that added zero value. They didn't think through that tech in general would see rain makers and value creators being cut loose and side with them instead of figureheads. They didn't think that partners and customers, who dealt with Sam and Greg daily would be find the move disconcerting (at a minimum). They didn't even think through who would be the next CEO.
Maybe they didn't think it through since they didn't care. There was only upside for them since Sam was going to get rid of them sooner or later. They didn't see that having been on the OpenAI board was an honor and enormous career boost. Or maybe their ambition was so great that nothing mattered but controlling OpenAI.
Further, they thought that if they slandered Sam that he would be cowed and that they would retain their power. I wonder how many times they had pulled this stunt in the past and it worked?
