I just looked it up and it sounds like there is no point in a person wanting to play chess against AlphaZero right now because other engines have surpassed it. I don't know that much about chess though.
Here is for AlphaFold. I mean what you are going to do with this? It looks cool but I don't have the background to even contemplate doing anything with this information:

What is most interesting to me is the sociology of people completely writing off the monstrosity of resources and brain power that is Google. Speaking as if they are stubbornly committed to some outdated technology as opposed to the organization that published Transformer: A Novel Neural Network Architecture for Language Understanding.
I have always given the research credit that it may just be highly counter intuitive but it has always seemed rather obvious that drinking poison is not part of optimal longevity.
The least shocking thing is for new research to come out claiming no amount of poison is good for you.
I quite enjoy drinking a few times a year but pushing 50 there is nothing that makes me feel as bad as even a few beers the night before compared to getting up and going for my morning 60 min walk without.
I don't completely disagree with you that the risks have not been discussed enough but to me what is much more important is we have absolutely no structures in our society to deal with these risks.
Not only do we not have the structures but we also have no ability to create them. If we did we would have already created them.
Instead we are going to go with the tried and true method we always use:
"What does this button do??" Then push the button and see what happens.
"According to Wittgenstein, understanding is not just a matter of having the right information or knowledge, but also involves the ability to use language in a way that is appropriate to the context and situation."
The amusing thing to me is the article just made me think of the people in the 80s that would argue rap isn't music but just a form of noise and how rappers aren't even singing!
I actually don't understand how someone thinks we understand understanding well enough to write this article.
I feel like I live in the Twilight Zone because to me data visualization with a VDOM seems much smoother than without like in Svelte even though data visualization is supposed to be a strong point of Svelte.
As someone who has only really got up to speed with React in the past year, I can't understand why people hate on React. Much of the hate has to be residual hate for Meta.
Svelte to me seems like a mess. $:variables seems like an absolutely terrible idea. Maybe it is a good idea if you are a genius but I assure you I am not and can do absolutely confusing and crazy things with $:variables.
There is also the aspect of upvoting/downvoting that completely skews honest opinion.
Instead of acting like a bullshit filter, upvote/downvote tends to act like a dog getting petted for echoing back a popular opinion to the group or the dog being scolded for echoing an unpopular opinion. Dogs like to get pats on the head and don't like being yelled at.
It is really one of the dumbest ideas of the last 30 years. Total disregard for human behavior and total disregard for the truth considering how often the truth is an unpopular opinion at a specific moment in time.
Throwaway accounts to me are a small protest to this ridiculous system.
There is also the idea with banking that I am trusting the bank with my money but I do have the option to withdraw the funds and put them under the mattress.
At least in the US, the idea of eliminating the ability to withdraw an account is absurd.
That form of money will simply never be widely used in the US. I believe the digital yuan already has this problem of just not being used enough.
At least in the US, I just don't think this will ever work. It is ultimately only in the interest of the central bank. There are really no other participants that will be clamoring for this.
I am pushing 50 and I just can't imagine I live to see the day I can't get cash from the bank when we still have absolutely worthless pennies in circulation. This is such a fundamental change to money and banking I just don't see it being widely adopted.
I have actually looked at a CDL out of curiosity. I can't imagine not getting a CDL right now because of automation. I think this is a much harder problem than it seems at the edges, especially in poor winter conditions. Most people would get sick of trucking before they are automated to the unemployment line.
The bigger issue really is that trucking is a bad deal. Super dangerous job that doesn't pay much of anything for the hours worked while your health is basically destroyed from sitting.
Stories from new big rig drivers are pretty terrifying. It sounds like the first year is spent hoping everyday that you don't kill someone as you learn to handle this 80,000lb monstrosity.
Exactly. People are quite ridiculous when it comes to healthcare.
I just had an elderly family member that would have died if not for the hospital saving their life but they can't stop complaining about the $4k they have to pay.
One would have to be painfully ignorant of basic economics to not see that setting up a mini hospital in a person's home is not going to be cheap. It is practically like complaining about the cost of taking a private vs commercial jet.
IMO this whole narrative reflects a type of human bias and the reality that we didn't evolve to reason about trillion dollar complex business.
I love chatGPT but it clearly has a ton of issues. To declare Google dead that is point is completely absurd.
I can't think of a single transformative technology that actually has a first mover advantage. The first, second and third mover seem to make all the mistakes and setup the forth mover to learn from those mistakes for free and create a monopoly.
Counting out a company that owns Deepmind is just not rational.
