>> None of this tells us whether Claude is conscious in the way people are, or whether it feels anything at all
My problem with the entire "Is AI conscious" debate is that we don't even know what exactly consciousness in humans is. You need to understand something in order to compare it to something else. Otherwise you are just comparing different definitions and second order derived phenomena.
If more women are graduating and they still have such negative opinion about nuclear then I'm not sure this points to more women graduates being the good thing you think it means.
Since we have seen that 50%+ of findings even in medical and other natural sciences are not repruductible it's obvious that even PhD people are mostly incompetent.
Yes the amount of damage this does to kids must be huge.
Some people here argue that "math is also what kids don't like" but math and chemistry can be understood by a teenager even if he doesn't like it. But these "classic" books can't because much more life, adult problems and having children, deaths of parents and illnesses have to happen in order for one to comprehend this books.
It's like trying to force a 8 year old to read romance novels: since his sexual hormones are not yet activated, he won't understand why a boy all of a sudden likes a girl.
>> SpaceX is a rocket company, a complex financial instrument, a meme, a monument to a broken financial system. It is the seven-headed Hydra at the end of finance, the teleological endpoint of money. It is a myth kept alive by blind faith, devotion, and even aggression, which makes it dangerous whether you believe in it or not.
Sure sure. The part where Musk revolutionized rocket travel is obviously a no big deal.
Everyone could do that, even a journalist. Right?
The valuation is the potential based on what SpaceX could do as the 1st mover in space tech.
Obviously the journo knows that, but hey, gotta write articles like this to pay the student debt...
In a study they figured out that organs seem to have an electrical potential range as a signature/command for stem cells for which organ to build and where.
In a frog they were able to grow legit eyes in the gut just by artificialy inducing a certain voltage in that area. No need for any cell transplantations: the voltage really seems to be the only signal needed.
This might also be how it might be done in the future in humans: block scar tissue then induce voltage with the signature of the organ you wish to regrow.
>> A school can deploy a tutor that is explicitly built never to give the answer — one that asks the Socratic follow-up, that requires the child to show the next step, that reports back to the teacher which concepts the class is stuck on.0
Fully agree with the article.
IMO we will just see more divide over those who are capable and those who are not.
The capable ones will use AI learning to accelerate their learning.
And the incapable ones will do as they always have: not much.

On the internet, the 5% of haters and the 5% of the biggest fans mostly comment. 90% of the people don't, the silent majority.
How are you gonna model what those who don't give an opinion say?
Polls? Remember the USA 2016 election where Trump won?
