Google is playing catchup while pretending that they've been at the forefront of this latest AI wave. This translates to a lot of talk and not a lot of action. OpenAI knew that just putting ChatGPT in peoples hands would ignite the internet more than a couple of over-produced marketing videos. Google needs to take a page from OpenAI's playbook.

>but bribery in a free market is still a problem to be solved in the context of that free market.

Yes of course. I don't know why you keep suggesting I am against that. My issue is with the nonsensical attempts to tie bribery to capitalism, as if one is the result of the other.

This reaction is uncalled for, especially for hackernews. I've been nothing but level-headed and fair, even though I disagree on the topic.

If you're looking for someone to criticize, you should look at your own behavior: "Fairly obvious, right?" an unsubstantive, smug, miserable response to my question, setting the tone for our interactions.

I want to get into quantum computing, but I keep coming back to the idea that most of our problems are human problems, not quantum problems. At least with classical computers, we can build tools that help to solve the human problems. Eg: connecting people, facilitating better communication, sharing knowledge. With quantum computers, it's not clear how you map a human problem to a problem that quantum computers would be good for, so I lose interest.

I have a friend that is working as a contractor building AI-powered workplace spying software for the explicit purpose of behavior manipulation. It gives the employees and employers feedback reports about their behavior over chat and video. For example, if they used microaggressions, misgendered someone, or said something crass. This same friend will then talk about the dangers of dystopian technology.

People don't know what they're creating. Maybe it's time it bites them.

Bribery is not connected to capitalism any more than it is connected to any other economic system, that's the point that you seem to be missing. People seem to want to dunk on capitalism, but it doesn't make any sense here.

Bribery is a corruption that happens in every single economic system, so it has nothing to do with the "invisible hand" of capitalism. In fact, arguments could be made as to why it happens less in free markets (where an economy flows more freely) than in non-free markets (where there are artificial barriers, making bribery more effective/needed).

Bribery is not "market-ish" behavior in the sense that it is connected to capitalism and free markets. But you also mention bitterness, which explains the reactions to my question. I think that means people want to be bitter at the idea of capitalism and free markets, whether or not it actually makes sense in this instance of bribery.

Good thing I didn't make that argument anywhere. My point with that statement is that bribery is in no way connected to capitalism or free markets because it exists independent of the market type.

When bribery happens in a country with a command economy, do you still say "there's that invisible hand of capitalism again"?

I agree that they can have unintended consequences, but I wouldn't say any more or less than anything else. This is why I'm struggling with the "invisible hand" analogy, which focuses on a connection to unintended (positive) consequences.

Bribery exists in every economic system, even before economic systems existed, and is not uniquely connected to the free market. Nor are they connected to "unintended societal consequences", since bribes very clearly have a specific goal. So it doesn't make any sense.

No, which is why I'm asking.

What does this have to do with the free market?

This is an ad for hivekit.io and contains almost no substance.

Chilling effect? "We have the ability to infiltrate any system and catastrophically destroy your hardware."

Is this for building LLM training data?

Isn't it amazing that a random person on the internet can produce free educational content that trumps university courses? With all the resources and expertise that universities have, why do they get shown up all the time? Do they just not know how to educate?

You're tipping your hand too soon. You're supposed to force UBI, then when it doesn't work out, plead ignorance and demand the nationalization of everything else to make UBI work.

If prices grew with UBI, that would make UBI the new baseline of "no money". Which means you'd be even more dependent on the government for UBI, otherwise prices would be even higher for you. More dependence seems not great.

>trained to fix typos

It is trained on data which may include typos, but that is very different from fixing typos. It knows what words likely come after typos in the same way it knows what words likely come after regular words.

Fortunately (unfortunately?) most places are in some stage of that process, so it's easy enough to participate in.

Do you truly think AI is the next crypto? What is your heuristic?

>Medical errors now vie with COVID-19 infections as the third largest cause of preventable death in the United States.

>Complications of medical and surgical care

Is the ~30th cause of death in Canada. In US it's the ~3rd. Why the order of magnitude difference? Is US healthcare 10x more incompetent or are these stats massaged?

What are you thinking about specifically? Some examples might help others see your perspective better.

It's good enough and only going to get better. The postgres community only has to improve a vector index extension. These vector databases have to improve everything else (all of the really hard stuff) about a database. My money is on postgres.

EDIT>> Plus pgvector is enabled by default on AWS RDS databases. Huge bonus.
