The story of mitochondria is one of input mismatches. You get no UV, yet are warm. You see blue light, yet it’s night time. It’s day time, yet there is no NIR. You eat CHO heavy meals in the winter, yet nothing would grow at that latitude with the limited UV yield.

I could go into everything that goes into redox status, non-visual opsins, leptin and melanin, pgc1a, DHA, lack of cofactors (esp minerals), deuterium, and the list goes on… but nothing matters. All you need is to respect nature, wear blue light blockers at night, go outside, expose yourself to the elements, move, eat what you would have access to given the current UV yield, and supplement with tryspike.store’s MB-0.1 (due to soil depletion).

Lived experience. I am the source, lib. Why would you be against a bipartisan curation algorithm like the one employed by community notes if you didn’t subconsciously agree with me?

The value of the novel would drop post facto because the AI’s experience is fabricated. Even if the novel is fictional, it is derived from the author’s lived experience. The AI has no lived experience and hence I am unable to empathize with the piece.

Hmm how else am I supposed to make fun of brits? :[[[

We need a new world map that accurately portrays countries by size. The downstream effects would go crazy.

Wikipedia IS ideologically captured and a propaganda target. This is not up for debate.

What it needs now is a bipartisan, sybil resistant algorithm like X’s community notes’ in order to accept/reject edits.

There is a fundamental value assigned to human produced work that stems strictly from the fact it’s not AI slop. It comes from empathy.

Why are physical paintings more valuable than digital art? Why is manmade art implicitly higher value than imagegen art? Why do we watch Magnus Carlsen when engines are leagues ahead of the top 10?

Because the human condition matters. We crave seeing the world through the eyes of others with different (or even similar) lived experiences, fantasizing about what we could have been, under different circumstances. Empathizing. AI fundamentally has experienced nothing and so empathizing is not possible. It is not even able to escape the constraints of the human imagination.

People saying it’s impossible with a family have really never frequented third spaces in Europe. Kids go everywhere with their parents and are allowed to roam as long as they remain within sight. The adults make friends and so do the kids. Most importantly, even if hypothetically nuclear families with young children couldn’t do it, younger and older people alike would be able to, which is still a major improvement to the current status quo. Second order effects from the existence of third spaces are simply a more open, pleasant, higher trust society with more independent, resilient adults. Say what you want about GDP, but fact is, I was much happier in Europe than the US and I live in a relatively walkable town close to NYC.

Oh, and you can absolutely have friends AND children. I have both.

Microsoft before: no claim over AGI Microsoft now: will invent AGI

Seems like a pretty sweet deal to me.

How about microplastics in the body? :^]

Point of homeschooling is precisely that it's individualized instruction meant to, hopefully, match your kid's needs.
