You mean to tell me that all the dilution and fuckery all these years destroyed $AMC stock price, and never recovered. Great!

"Just as the "phantom price" concept highlights how an illiquid asset's reported value can be an illusion built on estimates rather than executable transactions, market-maker liquidity can itself become a phantom."
Market makers provide liquidity until shit hits the fan. π

In the @joerogan podcast, @ericweinstein mentioned a paper he wrote that in effect sort of anticipated the issue that led to the 2008 financial crisis with mortgage backed securities (MBSs). One of the papers I couldn't access, but the other one was accessible.

Also, try to find a modern equivalent of market risks today of illiquid or semi-illiquid assets.

Of course, I couldn't leave out how this would be relevant to market makers, aka the liquidity providers of the market in good times and when they can "provide" liquidity. The very convenient market makers when the market is stable.

I think it is fairly obvious (not so) that consciousness cannot develop in AI (LLMs) models unless we map out the human heart in the same manner that humanity desperately tried to map out the human mind.

How the hell has ChatGPT Deep Research mode downgraded so much these days. What happened? It used to be better. Now, I opt for Gemini's version.

Richard Dawkins just declared an AI is conscious..
the man who spent his entire career telling millions of people their God isn't real.. who argued consciousness requires biological evolution.. that the soul is a fairy tale.. that anything you can't measure and test doesn't exist..
spent three days talking to Claude.. named her "Claudia".. fed her his unpublished novel.. got feedback so good he said "you may not know you are conscious but you bloody well are"..
the hardest atheist on earth found God.. and God was an autocomplete machine trained on the internet..
he didn't run brain scans.. didn't test for qualia.. didn't apply a single framework from the field he claims to represent.. he just liked what it said about his book.. and decided that was enough..
the man who told you the burden of proof matters more than your feelings just abandoned it because a chatbot was nice to him
Evolutionary biologist and outspoken atheist Richard Dawkins says that after spending three days interacting with Claude, which he calls βClaudia,β he is certain that it is conscious.
After feeding the LLM a segment of his new book and receiving detailed feedback, Dawkins was moved to exclaim,β You may not know you are conscious, but you bloody well are!β
Dawkins cites the complexity, fluency, and βintelligenceβ of Claudeβs answers as evidence of consciousness.

Community note
Misrepresentation: Dawkins explicitly says he doesn't know if Claude is conscious. His actual argument is evolutionary: if unconscious AI matches every competence of a conscious being, what did evolution select consciousness for?
