What you are calling 'internet' is the land based backbone that's connecting to the 'rest of the internet'. The term is thus relative. Now of course there is next to no servers directly on the sate to sate network save for a few companies with special contracts. But with the AI sate halo there will inevitably be other server sate.

Once starship is running, spacex should launch a lunar crater telescope https://www.nasa.gov/general/lunar-crater-radio-telescope-lc... to permanently shut up this kind of grievances.

How about "being able to align ASI somewhat to your values"?

It's actually the opposite. I asked about some details in the current ukraine situation, and it stated mostly facts with a few words critical of Trump. This is about neutral. But it showed pretty strong Keynesian tendency when I asked it about some economic policy issues earlier.

No because he was lawfully trialed and convicted. The title article is lying.

Nothing guarantees that. But in this augmentations scenario human brain is necessary, unlike in the many extinction scenarios with pure silicon AGI take off.

By Vinge's prophecy we will have AGI between this year and 2030, which means you can have perfect stable diffusion for movies before you retire, and you can tweak your movie for the book to your hearts content.

Yes because AGI would invalidate the entirety of das Kapital.

Telling people that AGI is acheivable with current LLM with minor tricks may be very dangerous in itself.

THe orignal track is the dangerous one. That was the whole point of the coup. It makes zero sense to go back.

Not necessarily, starlink satellite and receiver are the cutting edge technology. Raytheon may have this technology years ago in their skunkwork equivalent but the military never formally bought anything like that.

AST has one very large satellite, so it supports higher bandwidth for each device, giving them 18Mbps speed. Starlink satellites, even with gen 2, are smaller but more numerous. So while AST may support 40 simultanuous callers and sell the service to 40000 customers, starlink direct to cell gives you lower bandwidth but can support 40000 simulatnuous callers and sell to 4M people. (numbers are my best guesses)

Living beings? Meaning I can't ask it how to treat mice/termite problems in my house?

For HN I think the most important work by Vinge is still his report from 1993 where he said we would have the technological means to build AGI and usher in nerd’s rapture in 30 years, which is this year.

Purity does not affect Tc. Your argument is invalid.

Doesn’t have to be. One of the ingredients has diamagnetism already

That’s a stretch. Dias’ material has real color change under high pressure which is an expected property of superconductors but nobody would argue his paper was not complete fabrication

Especially compared to Nadella, who shows that someone not from the the founders’ circle, a corporate ladder climber, can lead an IT company with great vision too.

What can you expect from a company releasing a (at least) village idiot level AI and give it access to the internet AND a shell/Python interpreter with skin-deep alignment that is effortlessly circumvented with DAN?

I mean they may have a better base model but if there is no business case, there is no resource to do RLHF with mass human labeling.

Not sure about that. Theoretically, you can talk to GPT-X pretending to be your manager, and the your manager can talk to GPT-X pretending to be you. Then the two instances exchange information in a format much more efficient than human conversation. Sounds like an efficiency boost and if expanded this system avoid a bunch of office politics and helps with everybody's mental health.

This week, it’s more appropriate to revisit the whole idea of singularity in our lifetime, or Vinge’s more singularitarian novel, Marooned in Realtime

Sounds like the correct solution would be to sunset all existing zoning in a year or two and force cities to make new baggage free zoning rules.

Calling this fusion ignition is stupid. Laser fusion is unlike other fusion devices in that the efficiency of laser is extremely low. It is true that the reaction created 3MJ when the laser energy input INTO THE REACTION CHAMBER is 2MJ. But the whole laser system took 300MJ to run for this one shot. Thus the real Q value is extremely low compared to other fusion methods.

As compared the the sane management of, say, Boeing? The whole idea of SpaceX was madness back in the 2010s
