Looks like it just matches long term inflation, beats 2023 inflation. Win for workers.
During the observation period from 1960 to 2022, the average inflation rate was 19.0% per year. Overall, the price increase was 1.36 million percent. An item that cost 100 pesos in 1960 costs 1.36 million pesos at the beginning of 2023. For October 2023, the year-over-year inflation rate was 4.3%.
The author did a poor job of explaining that. He’s referencing the thought experiment of a businessman instructing a super effective AI to make paperclips. Given a terse enough objective and an effective enough AI, one can imagine a scenario in which the businessman and the whole world in fact are turned into paperclips. This is obviously not the businessman’s goal, but it was the instruction he gave the AI. The implication of the thought experiment is that AI needs guardrails, perhaps even ethics, or else it can unintentionally result in a doomsday scenario.
You have details about her case you’d care to share?
Its a monetization approach, same motives as what youtube does here with the ads so doubt itll ever go away.
So if a predator locks a victim in a closet, does that make lockmakers morally reprehensible?
Nah it was always an energy capacity and density per $ issue. Battery technology doesn’t improve as fast as compute but it has followed a steady ~10% yearly increase. Seems that when one tech plateaus another picks up. Solid state will get us to 4-500 mi/charge. Even electric planes will eventually happen.
If there’s n of something and n+1 breaks it, then it was broken to begin with.
From the article:
Mohamed Shalleh had argued that a friend he owed money to had tricked him into believing he was delivering contraband cigarettes.
You support this man being executed? Per the article it was for 54 grams of heroin which the state claims is enough for:
600 users for a week
Which is a blatant lie and evidence the state resorts to falsehoods to justify its barbarism. 1/2 a gram a day is common for an addicted user, so this man was carrying (unknown to him) just over 100 doses.
I’d push back that US regulatory bodies are strong and successful in some areas and that nuclear power doesn’t necessarily need to fall under regulatory capture. Consider the FAA - not perfect but does a pretty damn good job of keeping the skies safe.
Have you used these tools for a complicated project? I’ve played around a little and it didn’t feel like turning off my brain at all, more like working with a genius drone and figuring out how to direct its skills to my ends and constantly evaluating the 10,000 foot view to edge the project forward.
You should look into starlink!
+1 for obsidian! Have you tried out text generator plugin? Uses GPT api’s. Haven’t gotten into D&D but seems like it’d be a great tool for DMs to help make content.
