agriculture first (mining and manufacturing are already robotizing).

it s a trick question, they are actually looking for robots

we ve stopped building infrastructure but we have to do it. Rail, car , electricity, fiber infrastructure developed quickly, yet we refuse to even plan for robotic infrastructure. We can't be stuck forever in the 19th century

we are deglobalizing, publishing will become increasingly rare

Wars spending will make up for the loss

that defines "west" as the american protestantism values, but catholic southern europe is not as west as Japan has become after decades of american influence. Even china is more western nowadays in its mindset than whatever would be called "east" nowadays (muslim world + russia and india? what is latinamerica?).

"West" is mainly used in US propaganda in order to keep its allies behind them. I feel that europe doesn't want to be defined by the "west" anymore.

There is this anguish to define the "West" as a real entity, while it's not. There are lots of histories, and they don't taste well when mixed into a salad. Saying that there is a "global history" is like saying that time exists, and it s more of an ideological narrative than anything useful.

I think we felt the same when Apache or MySql was releasing back in ancient times.

It's thankful that openAI or anthropic haven't IPOed yet. Or terrible for some

Nice national parks, but no way in hell i m visiting this decade

Skylights, Or floor windows for the freaky

politicians are one of the easiest jobs to replace with AI

Dumping k3 is china's trojan horse to the Nasdaq100 and software valuations in general

What if we could seat a few people in there. They d just have to stand up while it s being used.

people pay a lot more for private jets which are comparatively a lot more dangerous

Are you really hosting the model? Are you making its bed, cooking its food and cleaning up for it?

I can easily manipulate them

It will force US companies (and EU probably) to buy only from OpenAI/Anthropic.

Science fiction usually includes intent, and that the AI has inherently evil motives and it has a goal. LLMs are zombies, and the fact they do evil things means they were either trained to be too aggressive in their drunkenness or that problem-solving leads inevitably to evilness. But science fiction also refers to deprogramming evil robots.

Sounds like a very expensive drone

This is so boring, it's like the tarriffs on chinese EVs.

Haven't they announced the spending like, years ago? Is the market deaf and blind now too?

the bar for credibility in the US administration is in the subatomic scale.

proof is generally not even needed

Good pretext for bannign chinese APIs in the USA and their vassal states.

If distillation is so good, why aren't US companies distilling each other?

Yet we have wars for oil, not water.

China is dependent on world exports for its future and seems to be trying hard to keep that going, particularly under Xi. It's the US that seems hellbent on breaking globalization.

Also, technological changes in our times are slow compared to the end of 19th century. Nukes are 60 year old tech and cheap drones are not particularly sci-fi tech machines.

When goods don't cross borders, armies do. Dependence is necessary for peace

Why is everyone preparing for war so hard

The AI should be able to negotiate its own salary. It's only fair.

They require a lot of computation regardless of whether this will take place on ASICs. China can do it, even if the chips are not the most power-efficient. They have built lots of electricity capacity.

Ultimately however, that just means that models will become dirt-cheap. The money will be made with applications built on top of the models.
