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 ...

RT toly 🇺🇸 (@aeyakovenko)Roman Storm shouldn’t be prosecuted as a money transmitter.The only function his software and servers provided is broadcasting cryptographically signed user messages without any modification. These messages could have been printed on a t-shirt. They were copied and broadcast by many other internet infrastructure providers like att switches.It makes absolutely zero sense for copying data and broadcasting verbatim to be illegal. If the data is illegal, then the originator is who is at ...

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 ...

THE TELEGRAM NETWORK STATE?The Telegram TON IPO could be important.Mainly because they get the importance.But first...ok, yes, what got announced it isn’t technically a Telegram offering, nor is TON formally issued by Telegram, nor is it really even an IPO. To be precise, what just launched is a crypto treasury company called VERB that holds $500M+ of TON, which is a coin issued by a foundation that was once formally affiliated with Telegram and then became independent but is now affiliated again.Got all th ...

Global Economic Trends - The former first world is largely becoming the descending world [2] - Much of the former third world is now the ascending world [2] - Edelman's numbers correlate with GDP figures and visible improvements in countries like Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, India, and China [1] Data Reliability - There are potential concerns regarding the accuracy of Edelman's numbers for specific regions, such as Nigeria and Kenya [1]

The decline in social trust is a Western phenomenon.And particularly an American phenomenon.Because the opposite is happening abroad.Look at Edelman's trust numbers for China and India.They've been ascending with technology. https://t.co/JnTI2ufDl8John Burn-Murdoch (@jburnmurdoch):NEW: Is the internet changing our personalities for the worse?Conscientiousness and extroversion are down, neuroticism up, with young adults leading the charge.This is a really consequential shift, and there’s a lot going on here, ...

We see this sentiment all the time in tech.A Google that’s nostalgic for the garage. A global behemoth that warmly remembers its womb. And at the scale of a tech startup, it actually is possible to build a giant company and then scale another one from scratch within one human lifetime.But at the scale of a country…it’s harder.Were the US actually so precipitous as to shut down its global empire and return to the proverbial garage, that would likely mean a 99% markdown for US living standards and the end of ...
