I think I might be missing some context here. Granted without context I'm pretty sure that strawman is still the right word.
It's an archive, so he can't really update that.
Thing is, that by December 2023, the time of the archive, there was already a scandal with someone using ChatGPT to do the work of discovery. While he might have stopped doing PR work for DoNotPay by that time, he was willing to advertise the fact that he did do such PR work for such a company. It shows either a lack of due diligence in researching his clients, or maybe it was just a paycheque for him. Perhaps he thought he knew more than what he actually did. Or maybe there was something else, I'm not clairvoyant.
It's clear that he's pivoted from that viewpoint, but it does make me curious what happened between then and now that caused him to become skeptical.
Should be, but it isn't.
That's what I was thinking as well. All they have to do is look the other way.
Not sure where I'm supposed to look for that tbh.
Other images are fine, weirdly enough, just not that one.
Well, it's still doing so for myself as I don't see any image.
Only a few thousand.
The theoretical Three Mile Island datacentre is probably the end-point of all of this. I think that what they build there (should it actually happen) has to be AGI. Like, unambiguously AGI. Where even the most hardline AI skeptics will react with "Holy shit they actually did it."
Anything less and it'll be nearly impossible to justify building 5 nuclear reactors to just power one of these datacentres.
So even if it is happening, it's still not happening.
Well, we could argue that computers don't really "compute," either. What a computer does is measure the flow of electrons through a transistor, albeit billions of them. If the flow of electrons passes an arbitrary threshold on a certain transistor, then we call it a "1". If it doesn't, we call it a "0". The "computation" is just us interpreting the flow of elections into something more useful. ^It^ ^was^ ^explained^ ^to^ ^me^ ^that^ ^the^ ^"threshold"^ ^was^ ^over^ ^and^ ^under^ ^5^ ^volts,^ ^but^ ^I^ ^think^ ^if^ ^you^ ^put^ ^5^ ^volts^ ^into^ ^a^ ^modern^ ^transistor^ ^it^ ^would^ ^just^ ^fry^ ^it.^
Obviously, because our brains are made of cells instead of silicon transistors, we wouldn't "compute" the same way a transistor does. If we decide that computation is only something that transistors can do, then obviously the brain couldn't compute, but, for now, that line would be arbitrary.
Do you mean the retweets or actual replies? Because I'm not seeing any replies to his comment, even in xcancel.
