Yeah. This is honest. I'm constantly flipping from excited to horrified by the implications of this honestly. It's like a thought experiment where humans are given alien tech before they're ready to wield it. Or maybe it's like, "what if the nazis were the first to develop nukes?"
I think we need to kinda go through the stages of grief so we can stare this problem in the face, and right now we're still in the denial for the most part. We hyperfocus on the dumbest elements of it, like Googles failed rollout recently, to assuage our anxiety.
Like, I don't even know what this does to ideas like the labor theory of value if we get replaced by machines. I'm too focused on survival to deal with the philosophy of it.
I just hope China can wield it responsibly before the US. They're on track to be able to for several materialist reasons like less financialization and more diverse and newer power grid.
Once again, the left is letting our hate for capitalism blind us to how useful this technology is. Of course there is loads of marketing hype, and they're going to try to suck every last cent out of it, but this transformer-based tech might be one of the greatest breakthroughs humanity has ever made.
Look at this robot that came out last week, it learns by watching people and costs around $100k from existing components. It's all open source and built on top of this transformer architecture.
Instead of crying and shidding our pants about a mouse button, we should be trying to anticipate where this is all headed and get ahead of it as much as possible. Or just complain, I get it we're all tired.
The seriousness with which one regards the mounting US national debt is inversely proportional with how seriously I take their opinions.
Knowing Japan, it's probably just a case of having a valid excuse to do what they always want, turn away foreigners.
We can't, but it's a good opportunity to agitate since most people that complain about it are actually complaining about capitalism.
Wowie! Thanks for shilling this here! I know I always come to hexbear dot net for my investment advice, because people here really have their finger on the pulse of the financial world!!! 
They see goading Russia into nuking Ukraine as a political W for them.
Some hotdog necked guy claiming to be an expert at "geoeconomics" out of Virginia. Looked into it and it's just a shittier version of historical materialism.
anyone have a link to some criticism of obama's iran deal from the left?
Mass graves of chuds sounds downright bloomer to me.
That first laptop is cool. Why isn't there an option like that now with a 12 day battery life and every fucking port imaginable?
Google isn't using their most expensive inference requests on serious questions from the wealthy decision makers of hexbear dot net, so you see, this means this technology can never produce good results. This also means my shitty job is and will always be completely safe from being automated. It's all a bunch of grifters and nothing to be concerned about! 
Didn't realize y'all think this musk-humper who was a self-professed "Christian athlete" and was in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M is some virtuous angel. 100% guarantee this guy has some very interesting 4chan posts.
Waste of a good show runner on this slop imo
It's like this but actually worse. You could add, I borrowed the $15 from a shady character that's going to break my kneecaps or force me into servitude when it's time to collect.
Just heard an amazing take that "people are very resilient" which I don't disagree with per-se, but the part that curled my nose-hairs was they cited Ukraine's GDP going up last year as a reason lmfao. Like oh man, you don't say?! Taking on IMF loans and increasing debt to GDP ratio to nearly 100% make line go up? After collapsing down by a third the year before? This is supposed to be a smart "analyst" type person too. Do they think Ukraine's productive capacity went up last year?
Oh no that's terrible. I hope that little shitbird doesn't die!
They edited it from the original which was way more wild and should have been deleted immediately on sight.
