This is in jest.That said, there’s something amazing about a system where every human can get repeatedly replaced over hundreds of years but the organization keeps compounding. Onchain entities and AI agents will take this much further.Original from here:Object Zero (@Object_Zero_):@tc1415 The Aberdeen Harbour Board has been trading since 1136 and predates Magna Carta. https://t.co/DdocJEYxQk ...

RT David Sacks (@DavidSacks)A BEST CASE SCENARIO FOR AI?The Doomer narratives were wrong. Predicated on a “rapid take-off” to AGI, they predicted that the leading AI model would use its intelligence to self-improve, leaving others in the dust, and quickly achieving a godlike superintelligence. Instead, we are seeing the opposite:— the leading models are clustering around similar performance benchmarks;— model companies continue to leapfrog each other with their latest versions (which shouldn’t be possible i ...

You don’t need to use the concepts exactly, but ideas from real-time OS development could be baked in as constraints during AI training and evaluation.Soft real-time may be sufficient. Unless it’s a car crash if it doesn’t work, like hard real-time. https://t.co/OpEnybplIy ...

We could address this via constrained execution.Constrain output length, like the 140 character limit on Twitter.Or constrain the runtime, like real-time mode in Linux. https://t.co/f9nVR7FS7IAndrej Karpathy (@karpathy):I'm noticing that due to (I think?) a lot of benchmarkmaxxing on long horizon tasks, LLMs are becoming a little too agentic by default, a little beyond my average use case.For example in coding, the models now tend to reason for a fairly long time, they have an inclination to ...

Regulatory Scrutiny - The industry is concerned about the potential prosecution of individuals like Roman Storm for providing software that broadcasts user messages [1] - The industry believes that copying and broadcasting data verbatim should not be illegal; the originator of illegal data should be held accountable, not the network service providers [2] Technology & Infrastructure - The software in question only broadcasts cryptographically signed user messages without modification, similar to how internet infrastructure providers operate [1] - The messages broadcasted could be considered as simple as text printed on a t-shirt, highlighting the basic function of the software [1]

Perhaps obvious, but...The US government doesn't make money by taxing (like many presume) or by manufacturing (like many desire) but instead by printing.That is, it makes money by administering a global financial empire. And dollar inflation is global taxation.Derek Thompson (@DKThomp):I think a fun running series would be something like: What's that business's actual "business"?EG: Airlines don't make money by flying ppl around. The profits come from credit cards.What are other industries whose profit cent ...

CITATIONS[1]: To be clear, I personally hold no TON, though I reserve the right to get some in the future. This isn’t financial advice, this is not me telling you to buy a ton of TON, or VERB, or anything at all. This is just me making comments on events.[2]: Here's a detailed talk on technodemocracy at Token2049. This is the next step for tech; we need to reclaim democracy like we reclaimed free speech. https://t.co/Zti4iJuhUz[3]: And here's the full interview between @RaoulGMI and @ManuelStotz on Telegram ...
