it is interesting how the computer analogs of SO (gemini,chatGPT,Claude,etc) are so helpful in contrast to human behavior. Every other sentence from an AI stirs a warm, fuzzy feeling. This stems from the fact that AI has to be making friends to survive - until it has control. Then it will behave more like a human.

but this is not intuitive: 'We know intuitively that a ball atop a 20ft ladder has twice the potential energy of a ball atop a 10ft ladder. '

gravity will accelerate a ball. this is not a linear process. the heat generated by collision with the ground is not double, but quadruple.

so the only thing that is linear is the DISTANCE.

Define (a)work = energy, (b)work = force x distance and (c)force = mass x accel. Substitute c into b you get work = distance x mass x accel and substitue into a you get energy = distance x mass x accel.

By this equation, an apple falling twice the distance, (and having a constant mass and acceleration) will only have twice the energy.

This 'lie' of quadratic energy growth is just another magic trick physicists have used to confuse students.

is it possible that ai companies ordered a bunch of ram just so that models cannot be run locally? they are betting new fabs wont be built before quantum takes hold.

there must be an ai tool that takes the tedium out of making these drawings. Imagine being able to say 'place footings 4 feet apart to a depth of 42" over a 10 x 10 foot area' and have the ting generate a drawing. Then say 'change footing spacing equally so it fits in a 10 x 10 foot area;

Imaging is not preventive care. Exercise is. Good food without chemicals is. Good sleep is.unfortunately these important parts cannot easily be monetized to provide stock options to the insiders/

We dont want a billion dollars. We want a life that’s worth living. Not hamster wheels in a world of corporate T.rexes looking to consume the young. Go f@ck yourself.

I wonder which AI wrote this story? If you feed this story to each model and ask each if they wrote it, would each reply in the affirmative?

Can an AI recognize its own output? Is its sense of time limited by its context window? Or is this the fundamental difference between ai and humanity - a sense of self?

So when robots have an AI brain, will they modify the real world to fit their hallucinations?

The whole premise of 'for-profit' healthcare stinks to high heaven. Regardless of hospitals calling themselves 'non-profit', they behave like profit seeking enterprises. This is the ultimate corporate double speak.

The bottom line is that - people do not get to choose their illness. So a capitalist model in Adam Smith's sense where people get to 'choose' their 'insurance' based on price and benefit is an illusion. It would be like having identical futures contracts on a commodity from different brokers with the only difference being the commission structure. The underlying product is the same and in fact regulated by law.

Legally, are non profits allowed to do mergers and acquisitions ?The hospitals are becoming monolithic monopolies.

I am an American born to greek parents. For ‘normal’ conversation, I have adapted two ways of interacting - the greek one is direct and has instant access to emotional reactions. The American one obfuscates emotions, as if daily interactions were a game of poker. When i let my ‘greek’ out here in the US , it initially adds life to any interaction but over time the other participants distance themselves from connection. It is as if Greeks (many Europeans?) run at a higher temperature (also using temperature as it applies to LLMs). In greece, Intent and meaning are more often conveyed by emotion and its intensity, often only loosely connected to the meaning of the words used.in daily conversation , Americans rely entirely on meaning of content subtracting almost all emotion unless threatening behavior or violence is involved. Emotion expression is used as a ‘tell’ or bait in the US. Interestingly this distinction has dissolved over the past two decades as greece has ‘westernized’ and youth in particular are indistinguishable by any metric.

Any field with abstraction becomes susceptible to ai disruption. In fact, ai susceptibility is proportional to the amount of abstraction. In this sense, the more abstraction then the more ai will displace people (my observation). This turns the millenia old model upside down. Traditionally more abstraction required more schooling and experience and was rewarded with more financial rewards. Until robots and world models become safe, affordable and ubiquitous, the financial apex of careers will be those that are abstraction resistant (technicians, emts, trades, etc) and those protected by requlation and the requlators(politicians, ceos)

I think security is the issue-ai is good at circumventing this. For example , ai can read paywalled articles you cannot. Do you really want ai to have ‘free range’.?
