@nntsn But look at EPS, the first dividend ever and a $2 trillion valuation! "Clearly firing everyone and pocketing their wages while everything still runs is the way to go" - @sundarpichai
It just dawned on me that ~humanoids in the house will be a thing very soon indeed. In under 2 years I bet. Simply another home appliance, saving you time, cooking for you, doing the chores, watching the house while you're gone. I can see a robot of approximately this…

@tomerdusautoy @ZeroTimeDrift 1. Modern medicine is palliative. Something breaks, you go to the doctor, doctor tries to fix. This approach has worked well with the diseases of youth but has hit a wall with those of old age. 2. The accumulation of molecular damage that eventually manifests in the diseases of…

This one plot completely changed my perspective on US racial statistics. If you just compare raw numbers between black and white Americans, you're very likely comparing young people to old people. That's why you should almost always ask that the numbers be adjusted for age.
Coming soon: Zuck unlocks adolescence, pulls a @JeffBezos and a @hubermanlab at the same time. Renames @czi to Chad Zuckerberg Initiative, starts own rocket company.
Interesting that LLMs might be a decent proxy for Homo Economicus behaviour
Beautiful takedown of The Economist by Singapore's Home Affairs and Law Minister K. Shanmugam.

@DavidSD1970 @drdanponders 2 years is a very realistic timeline. Humanoids don't have to be as capable as people.

WTF. One of Google's strengths is that internally one has access to at least a core dev of any given brick of our cursed tech stack. Looks like that might not be true anymore (and dropping the python team is a proper S-tier stupid call).

Francois Chollet's mental model for LLMs: LLMs are stores of programs. Querying LLMs involves selecting a program from the latent program space and running it on your data. And the ability of LLMs to interpolate between these programs is what makes LLMs so flexible.
