People want to give you things. But they do NOT want to give you things when it feels to them like you outsmarted them into giving you the thing.

Some societies need to be in isolation for a while and evolve to modernity before too many foreigners come. If they are swamped too quickly, they are not strong enough or educated enough to compete, and they become an underclass in their own land.

This type of scene is actually impossible today already. You cannot actually occupy a hostile city with tanks and an army successfully. There is too much tech in the hands of insurgents. That's why in Ukraine, Lebanon they empty out all cities they capture. The nature of warfare already has fully changed.

If you want to stop feeling hungry, just imagine that your child is hungry and you have to choose between eating this meal or giving it your child. Your brain has a hunger override mechanism that removes your hunger if your child needs the food.

The Government banning Anthropic for being too capable will make all the large U.S enterprises rush for it once it goes live again.

We could just make paper notes to have QR codes, and be owned by one person at a time. You scan the notes and they are yours till someone else scans them and you "release" them. Useful for big notes - like $10k notes. Digital money but also private.

Honestly, Fable was a model that was far more capable than most people realized, because of the nature of the problem they were working on. You needed to work on really hard stuff for it to show its true capability. I understand why the U.S govt banned it.

I did buy SpaceX stock, and sold by end of the day. Just took the little bump from the preallocated price to the market price. My stock principle now is to stick with fairly valued stocks, even if I miss the meme gains.

If there is a AGI superior to the ones LLMs have, then LLMs will discover it.

Democracy must be actively defended, because leaders always want to reduce it.

I've been to both Texas and California - they were the opposite of what you would expect. Texas was clean, well organised and nice. California was dirty, crumbling and old.

After playing around with Fable for a bit - it is clearly smart, but you can get similar analysis with Gemini Flash with a BIT of guidance. Fable gets the result. Gemini with a hint gets the same result too.

Imagine a future where someone opens a crypto network that rewards AI and Robots to attack and occupy a gold mine, and then sells the gold in exchange for crypto coins? Someone in China can virtually conquer a mine in Mali. This will soon be possible. anonymous mercenaries.

There are people who can open a lot of deals and cannot close even one. There are people who open 3 deals and close 3.

The social contract is that the aristocrats take care of the peasants problems. When the aristocrats break their part of the contract, it the peasants end up cutting off the heads of the aristocrats. This is the way of the world.
Wise aristocrats frame themselves as patrons of the poor.
