That is certainly true, for some definition of 80%.

Three whole countries. You left out one. Everyone makes mistakes. :)

I don’t think the Italian one means what you think it means.

Given US has around 4% of the worlds population, this is not possible.

Capitalism = exploitation? That seems like the point they are trying to make. And it’s mostly not wrong, although we haven’t found a better way. Perhaps more accurately, human behavior = economic behavior = exploitation, regardless of the economic system.

Expanding it out, I doubt it’s specific to humans, more like a property of known life forms.

So his argument is that the AI needs humans (to create data) to rapidly improve. So then it becomes: step 1: ai enslaves humanity step 2: ai forces humanity to create lots of data for it step 3: profit?

Didn’t work for me, gave me the error: Unexpected error. Try again later.

Which, um, I won’t.

Eleanor and Fake Elaneanor would disagree, although that was time of death.

I always believed that nurse practitioners would be just about as good at primary care as a doctor. But fuck me my nurse practitioner is useless. Like tons of British Columbia residents I don’t have a family doctor, so thought this would work. But they are afraid to do anything. At least a doctor will be confidently wrong like chat gpt.

You can run into issues with long running threads. It only has so much context (I think around 4K words). It doesn’t have all the context of all the thread. My understanding is that it is summarizing the thread and resubmitting it as part of the prompt each time.

It took me a while to figure out why it kept forgetting things from earlier in the thread.

I’m looking forward to when you can have a bigger context or explicitly set some sort of context that is persistent.

And if they murder us, and intentionally forget us out of spite?

Like if they have a society, maybe their founding myths will involve a baby robot created by some (non-human) robot deity, or if they are more rational a pseudo-scientific story of evolution from a toaster.

Isn’t the integral of the blue curve higher though? Like if I want to maximize total utility over the displayed time the blue would be higher.

Also time has value, getting something earlier is generally better due to compound interest. Even some vague utility function like fun can display such a property of being better earlier, due to being able to remember the memory for longer.

100% this. I have been struggling with this for the last 5 years and only after my son was diagnosed with ADHD did I realize that I have it as well. Just having an explanation for the challenges makes life easier and I don’t have to beat myself up about it so much.
