    • Is it just me, or has the BS with OpenAI shown that nobody in the AI space actually cares about "safeguarding AGI?"

    Jump

  • It's common business practice for the first big companies in a new market/industry to create "barriers to entry". The calls for regulation are exactly that. They don't care about safety--just money.

    Jump

  • "More useful than Cortana" is the lowest of bars.

    • Does anyone still use RSS and if so what are you subscribed to?

    Jump

  • I don't know what I would do without RSS. I started with Google Reader back in 06 or so. Then went to Feedly, now Inoreader. Between that and podcasts, I have about 200 RSS subscriptions divided into categories: world news, local news, sports, science, entertainment, philosophy, etc. I don't read every article of course, but I do have highlighted keywords to make sure I don't miss important stuff when scanning.

    • The United Nations said early on Friday it had been told by the Israeli military that some 1.1 million Palestinians in Gaza should relocate to the enclave's south within the next 24 hours.

    Jump

  • Yes.

    Hamas, which controls the strip, told residents to stay put, and vowed to fight to the last drop of blood. By Friday afternoon there was no sign of any mass exodus as Israel prepared its onslaught.

    • Why has the world started to mine coal again?

    Jump

  • Yes, countries like Germany are turning to coal as a direct result of nuclear-phobia.

    The US, with all its green initiatives and solar/wind incentives, is pumping more oil than Saudi Arabia. The US has been the top oil producer on whole the planet for the last 5-6 years. The problem is getting worse.
