"What would seeing information on a computer screen do for you that a book couldn't?"
Reducing friction of access to information, friend. That's what. Taking a label in a supermarket and immediately seeing what's good and bad about it. Increasing competitive pressure on companies who still use toxic ingredients. I could go on here but it seems like you just take issue with "AI" as a concept because it is trivial to come up with many ways in which AI would help here.
Just make sure the mugs weren't washed with Jet Dry...
Avoiding toxic and questionable substances really does get exhausting after awhile. It's everywhere. I'm able to draw a reasonable line (for me) without getting too nuts about it. Hoping AI ends up helping with this.
Can you find any website or document that validates that these "random audits" are done? By whom and on what cadence? I've not been able to find anything like this. Just hand-waving, assertions that "someone does something," and so on.
You're pooh-poohing this idea a bit to harshly IMO. I almost wonder if your knowledge here may be out of date. You're aware that there's now evidence of the Americas' being populated over 20,000 years ago, right? Footprints in White Sands and now sloth bone carvings in Brazil. Far earlier than the Norse you mention.
Interesting. Maybe part of the solution is better predicting and controlling the motion inside the human body. I could imagine using a method to guarantee a particular organ be at a certain place at a certain moment: perhaps by accelerating the body a certain way to shove the organ into a position for a moment. Or maybe by injecting microscopic machines to surround and hold an area still. Someone will figure it out.
You need to add "to me" at the end of your sentence here, because you're making it sound like you think their post sounds a certain way objectively, when that's actually subjective and didn't sound that way at all to me.
"There are far more of these tablets in existence than I could have imagined. In fact, between half a million and two million cuneiform tablets are estimated to have been excavated in modern times, of which only approximately 30,000–100,000 have been read or published."
Seems like it's only a matter of time before this hits an inflection point and an explosion of insights from ancient cultures emerges. Exciting. Many long-held beliefs will be upturned. Many people will be digging their heels in...
Many serious, pro-technology scientists, philosophers, and science fiction writers have been publicly worried about AI for decades and people are now acting like they're all suddenly fools or have nefarious motivations. Here's a thought: those who are uncritical of AI have far more of an incentive to ignore and downplay the risks!
You would think 3 years into the fallout of a possibly lab-created virus (or, if you don't believe that, certainly a poorly-managed response to a natural one) people would be a little, I don't know, concerned about human institutions' ability to handle anything at all that is massive and consequential in scope?
I would understand if AI proponents were putting out material that demonstrated they take critics' concerns seriously. But all I'm seeing in the opposite: a flippant disregard, as if we're all stupid for caring. Forgive me if my confidence is not through the roof right now.
Why do you think the generation who actually fought and died against Nazis nevertheless held that displaying a Nazi flag is protected speech in America?
Do you think you understand something they didn't? Were they naive? Are you perhaps more intimately connected to the evils of Nazism than they were? Maybe they didn't understand that an entire country could fall to the evils of Nazism if they were not stamped out aggressively?
Or. Maybe they understood these things even better than you. And maybe they believed freedom of speech is even more anti-Nazi than banning Nazis.
I hope you are not actually mistaking your urge to dunk on people you despise with a reasonable definition of a term. I mean, dunk away, I don't mind. But I hope you know that's what you're doing. :)
The funny thing is "woke" has the same connotation as "redpilled." The idea being you see the world the way it really is while everyone else is oblivious.
Sample size can be small if the controls are good and the effect is large. 40 could be way too many for some studies, way too few for others. "40 subjects" means nothing by itself.
