    Trump Indicted!

    I'd venture a guess there was a cash out arrangement during IPO. Alternatively, these shares can be collateral in various types of schemes. Bottom line, even if he was penniless, he’s not anymore. Trump-and-dump, I insist! That’s not exactly how it works in the markets. Without going into...

    Warfare

    Intelligence did appear on accident at least once already. AGI will be the next level of intelligence on the way up the ladder - supercharged intelligence. The ability to perform every task human performs, better than human. Or, at the very least, calculating prerequisites for efficiently...

    Trump Indicted!

    Trump is planning to shift the focus of war, so, new permanent vacation addresses, not closing shop. New opportunities to fill out jobs at the Pacific theatre, new budgets - lots to be excited about. Not just doom and gloom of Donald cutting military funding to existing projects. But also the...

    Well, the obvious counter-response is electro-magnetic (EM) weaponry. 1. M-SHORAD (Maneuver Short Range Air Defense): This system is designed for short-range air defense and incorporates a 50-kilowatt laser mounted on a Stryker combat vehicle. The system is part of the U.S. Army's effort to...

    Now that we've established there is a subset of people who object to the referral to current artificial intelligence as intelligence, lets move on to AI in warfare. https://inkstickmedia.com/ai-is-transforming-military-drones/ In short, the author proposes that synergy from drone swarms and...

    Capitalist will hire whoever is cheaper to hire. Capital is in constant search of a bargain. That's why US production moved to China in the past. No amount of patriotism is able to stand in the way of cost savings. Right now Humans are more appealing. Ten years ago robot's price tag would be in...

    Intelligent enough to lift crates and take em to the opposite side of the warehouse. Intelligent enough to translate text better than overwhelming majority of individual human translators. Intelligent action is not a high bar to cross. You can wave your hand and say "nah, this isn't 100% human...

    AI, and its subset, ML are solving the same kinds of problems human brain is solving at a faster rate using instruments of logic. Boosting productivity across the spectrum of jobs. You can argue fine points that brain and AI are dissimilar in some ways, and I will agree with you on that, but...

    OK, let's try to unwind this a little. Brute force methods are used in areas where the solution space is not prohibitively large, or for problems where no efficient algorithms are known, such as certain types of cryptographic attacks (e.g., trying all possible keys until finding the right one)...

    The AI Thread

    Just what I needed - an uncensored open source large LLM. To me it says that Musk decided to open source his LLM, so that millions of developers could tweak and amplify Grok’s “brainpower”. (along with Musk’s bank account, he hopes) Labour cost savings right there. Competitors, namely...

    It isn't. Unless one believes in invisible man watching every move from high above. "True" intelligence is also much worse (than AI) at pattern recognition, error correction. Due to faulty memory, alcoholic tendencies, laziness and tendencies to disobey and misunderstand orders leading to...

    Warfare

    AI drones will amplify existing superpowers military capabilities. They are the ones that can outproduce smaller states in anything, whether it's nuclear missiles or army drones. If anything, this will further increase asymmetry of power in favour of large countries. As for countries that are...

    The AI Thread

    For Microsoft. That's what Sam Altman (of Open AI) did for a living, before working on ChatGPT - he worked for a "startup incubator". (or was it accelerator?) Regardless, it doesn't look like anyone has a solid idea of what's going on and where it is going. Everyone is toying with ideas, but...

    According to Mustafa Suleiman, the modern Turing test should look like this: take $100,000 and turn it into $1 mil using Amazon.
