Not even close chief.

Earth has been a rich, life sustaining planet in far hotter conditions then anything we are projected to take it to.

We can kill billions of ourselves, but short of ww3 earth will crack on just fine.

Social media emotional hot-takes dont match the numbers.

We are still screwed though.

At one point we considered adding artifical delay to responses because irrational users dont trust something that finishes fast, even if its the same quality.

How empirical are your comparisons of new and old outputs?

Users dont understand the externalised cost of free services.

Worse than that, they feel entitled to them, to the point that the actual expectation of having to pay for something that requires effort to maintain is treated as an insult.

Because i would rather solve the problems close to home, the problems involving those billionaires.

Im not going to put effort into turning those other people in another country into a new cash crop for billionaires.

Their needs are met.

They are turning to racism because of their wants and fears.

And if you are any kind of strategic thinker when faced with that problem, you will do two things

1. Invest in propaganda to ensure the US becomes hostile to immigrants.

2. Invest in opening yourself up to immigration.

China is openly doing 2. It would be foolish to assume they are are not also investing in 1 and secretly cheering on the current administrations hateful stupidity.

Immigration is the US superpower, and everyone who wants to knock them off the number 1 spot is eroding it.

Its a really interesting question.

Lets take it to its farthest extent: can you take a picture of a black hole?

Or a life where everyone operates in absolutes, with no shades of grey allowed.

Zero reflection and total constant analysis paralysis are both non viable.

Or the value of everything non ai drops to zero, which makes the value of ai infinite by comparison.

It's not about blindly accepting autogenerated code. Its using them for tooling integration.

Its like terminal autocomplete on steroids. Everything around the code is blazing fast.

The majority of obese people want to be thin, but will die obese anyway.

Just wanting something that requires a significant overhaul of how you do things, is not enough.

He was fired for poor performance.

So clearly he was only capable of temporarily pretending to have three times the value.

Seems like startup senior management potential to me.

Their interest is to convince themselves that it won't be needed in their lifetime, and to hell with anyone else after they are dead.

That was always the case. Otherwise we wouldn't be in this situation now.

Rights are arbitrary limits made up by people which can be changed or eliminated by people. Nothing more, nothing less.
