Is it not an apt analogue to describe the behavior, though? After all, one well known failure mode of LLMs has been formally dubbed “hallucination”.

And there are inflection points where it’s going it be easier to cut out the middlemen.

Efficiency of living is not static, I wouldn’t be surprised if it were possible to sustainably support 10B people with a relatively high standard of living.

I heard the following metric recently:

But in China, in 2013, China had terrible particulate air pollution. It was known around the world as the airpocalypse (ph) on a - a 700 on a scale of air pollution from zero to 500, the U.S. embassy reported. And, you know, over the decade after 2013, the size of the Chinese population grew by 50 million people. And so if more people were always worse for the environment, you might think that particle air pollution in China would have gotten worse. But, in fact, particle air pollution in China fell by half, even while the population grew.

Efficiency of living is only starting to come into the public consciousness, and we’re barely rewarding the exploration of that space. I think we’ll find there are a ton of improvements to be had.

That said, it’s a “after we survive the crisis” outlook. It seems hardship from climate change is already inevitable, especially in this upcoming century.

How would a page fetch new messages for you without JS?

What about encrypted DNS?

The content likely doesn’t matter, but I read it helps the baby recognize the parent’s voices (esp the Dad’s, Mom already gets a lot of time), and it can also help them get a head start on recognizing the phenomes of your language.

When gaming online, Chinese players sometimes type “99” or “9898”, and I learned it means “go! go!” or “let’s go!”

That video is super, super wrong, and nowhere even close to “just a different perspective”. To demonstrate, Mercury and Venus should periodically come between the Sun and Earth, but that’ll never happen in that model.
