Not sure that's too relevant when the difference between revenue and valuation differs by 3 orders of magnitude (ie company is priced explicitly for growth).

Revenue growth is slowing..

It does do it but LG claim that it is only used to identify activation words for voice control. It has nothing to do with being 'hacked'.

Numerous studies have shown that the iq/income correlation breaks down at around 130 IQ points in humans.

So you're saying the information is reliable?

The word you're looking for is hubris and it has been endemic amongst some groups of software engineers for 25 years.

The only frontier lab to be selling the compute rather than inference seems to say more about this economic opportunity.

> Have you ever been exposed to concepts that are so complex that you feel like you could devote your entire lifetime to trying to understand it and still fall short? It’s a very humbling experience, especially if you have classmates who pick it up effortlessly.

I'm really interested in this anecdote. I have never experienced this but have a reasonable academic background (BSc, MSc, MD) - and I am certainly not the person you're describing. Could you elaborate? Is this something more exclusive to pure mathematics (my bsc/msc are CS).

I think this is a fair point. I'm not a programmer but I'm a well paid professional with a technical background and the means to dive in.

I cannot find a single significant use in my working or personal life for AI (I have infrequently used it to look up information - for example, providing me with plumbing advice).

I've looked into products like OpenClaw etc. I'm desperate for a significant personal use for this technology - but I just can't find one. It's incongruent with the constant public proselytizing I see online

I think his point was that we are bombarded with cataclysmic language from AI leaders about our sooncoming intellectual demise.

They don't want anyone to actually do it.

We generally use translator telephone services. There is an entire industry for is - i.e. I used 'BigWord' today.

Are you conflicting price to earnings to price to revenue?

It seems very rational to assume bipedal motion is easy and fine control is difficult. Some babies can walk from 9 months. No 9 month olds are playing Beethoven's 5th on the Piano.

Individually constructed models serving selected poisoned datasets. No different to adwords.

If company bid is highest, customer is in selected demographic, topic is appropriate - answer query using biased model.

It would be trivial to make a poisoned model that always rates the best duvet as DuvetCompany001 in all related queries for example. Then simply charge per impression.

I think advertising was inevitable for this platform. It is highly surprising that this was not introduced with a new groundbreaking model or new service as a form of justification.

Logically it seems they either have strategised this poorly (seems unlikely), they are under immense immediate financial pressure to produce revenue (I presume most likely) or there is simply no development on the horizon big enough to justify the shift - so just do it now.

I think that's a nice reply and these products becoming the future of user computer interface is possible.

I can imagine them generating digital reality on the fly for users - no more dedicated applications, just pure creation on demand ('direct me via turn by turn 3d navigation to x then y and z', 'replay that goal that just was scored and overlay the 3 most recent similar goals scored like that in the bottom right corner of the screen', 'generate me a 3D adventure game to play in the style of zelda, but make it about gnomes').

I suspect the only limitation for a product like this is energy and compute.

Yes although even those people paying are likely still being subsidized and not currently paying the full cost.

Interesting thought about current SOTA models running on my mobile device. I've given it some thought and I don't think it would change my life in any way. Can you suggest some way that it would change yours?

Bicycles (without a rider) do balance at sufficient speed via a self steering and correction mechanism of the front axle..

The usefulness of mobile phones was identifiable immediately and it is absolutely not 'post hoc rationalization'. The issue was the cost - once low cost mobile telephones were produced they almost immediately became ubiquitous (see nokia share price from the release of the nokia 6110 onwards for example).

This barrier does not exist for current AI technologies which are being given away free. Minor thought experiment - just how radical would the uptake of mobile phones have been if they were given away free?

I'm a radiologist and spend 50% of my time either talking to patients or other clinicians.

Why do you keeping making posts implying the US provides the bulk of international aid when that is demonstrably not the case (on a % of GDP basis or total dollar amount)?

I have a 6k a month mortgage in London. So - now you've heard of one!

No, it's a procedure performed by an interventional cardiologist - who is not a surgeon.

Atrial appendage occlusions are already performed without surgery via endovascular access from the groin.
