A generation of men once laughed at everything he said. His new movie is almost shockingly unfunny. slate.trib.al/46cOiAd

Dass Politiker überhaupt ihre Antworten ändern und sogar versuchen, die Fragen umzuschreiben, kannst Du außerhalb Deutschlands Keinem erklären.

The increasingly farcical saga of Berlin's attempt to put together a leftist government is v dispiriting, but for an Anglo journalist it is at least modestly heartening to see Germany's wretched interview-authorisation process at the heart of the shitshow.

AI is conscious people be like “How can you know with certainty that the stripper isn’t in love with me? From a functional perspective, how would her behavior differ if she were in love with me?”

Ich glaube nicht, dass alle Linken bzw. jeder 4 Berliner Antisemit ist. Gerade im Bezug auf die Wähler dürfte das Thema schlicht egal gewesen sein. Was nicht egal war: das Thema Mieten, welches die Linken gut bespielt haben. Diese Analyse zu verkennen wir uns Wahlen kosten.

US: painstakingly describe LLMs in section 2, history, task, input, output, setup, what "size" means.
US: talk about different types of tech like ASR, machine translation, others, what to do in cases of dual use etc.
Them: STOCHASTIC PARROTS SAYS AI DOESN'T WORK.

But then you watch it and it's actually amazing

2019: “GPT2 is groundbreaking in two ways. One is its size, says Dario Amodei, OpenAI’s research director. The models “were 12 times bigger, and the dataset was 15 times bigger and much broader” than the previous state-of-the-art AI model” theguardian.com/technology/2…

Imagine you’re a conman. You’ve said for years you have MAGIC BEANS. You’ve shown lots of REALLY BIG normal beans that you made in your lab.
“Almost there!” you say—over and over.
Now, you have *almost* convinced the villagers to give you TWO TRILLION DOLLARS.
But while the beans keep getting bigger. No magic yet…
What do you do? That money is SO CLOSE.
“I know!” you think, “instead of MAGIC beans, lets’s make them KILLER BEANS.”
So you pump up your beans up SUPER BIG and you say: “I’m sorry, but these BEANS ARE GETTING BIGGER ON THEIR OWN!” You threaten people that if they don’t give you the money, the beans may get into the WRONG HANDS. They might get BIGGER THAN THE EARTH!
The villagers, aghast, run to and fro arguing whether the beans are going to kill everyone or make them all rich.
“Well, either way,” the idiots in the village conclude, “We’d better give him the money.”

More realistic AI doom scenario:
You wake up, and can't log in to any of your devices or accounts.
"Hmm, that's weird..."
The Internet doesn't work.
For anyone.
Nothing loads.
No passwords work.
This does not improve, for several days. Then weeks. What happens next?
