It hasn't been updated in a while, but you might appreciate Cooking for Engineers. All their recipes have a Recipe Card format which diagrams exactly when steps should happen in relation to each other.
Here's an example: https://www.cookingforengineers.com/recipe/36/Meat-Lasagna/trn
I used to, but oddly it's stopped. I think it may be around the time I stopped having the ringer on by default, which is odd as the phone still vibrates.
Only if you completely redefine some aspect of the equation. You'd have to define "5" to actually mean "4" or change the meaning of "+" or "=" in some way that changes the operation. 2+2=4 isn't just an abstract statement, it's based on the way the physical world works. If you have 2 apples, and then I give you 2 more, you don't suddenly have 5 apples because we all decided 2+2=5.
Orwell's meaning in 1984 wasn't about belief changing the world, it was about the power of brainwashing and how fascism demands obedience.
I agree with most of the other comments here. Is actual AGI something to be worried about? I'm not sure. I don't know if it's even possible on our current technology path.
Based on what I know, it's almost certainly not going to come from the current crop of LLMs and related research. Despite many claims, they don't actually think or reason. They're just really complicated statistical models. And while they can do some interesting and impressive things, I don't think there is any path of progression that will make them jump beyond what they currently are to actual intelligence.
Could we develop something in my lifetime (the next 50-ish years or so for me)? Maybe. I think slim chances without a major shift, and I think it would take a public effort akin to the Manhattan Project and the Internet to achieve, but it's possible. In the next 5 years? Definitely not, some random, massive, lucky break notwithstanding.
As others have said here, even without AGI, current capitalist practices are already using the limited capabilities of LLMs to upend the labor market and put lots of people out of a job. Even when the LLMs can't really replace the people effectively. But that's not a problem with AI, it's a problem with capitalism that happens with any kind of advancement. They'll take literally any excuse to extract extra value.
In summary, I wouldn't worry about AGI. There's so many other things that are problems now, and are already existential threats, that worrying about this big old "maybe in 50 years" isn't really worth your time and energy.
I got a closeup of the plaque. I imagine it's the same one in the series, as most of the bridge is the exact set from Picard.
That's a nice bag!
I made a Voyager jacket (the separate variant that Janeway wears a handful of times) and I just put on a pair of black slacks as pants so I'd have pockets. Worked out pretty nice.
They had somebody taking pictures as we came in, but I lost the card they gave us so those pics are gone forever.
That spot was self-service when I got there, people were just taking turns taking pictures for people.
I know the VIP tickets got semi-private guided tours, I wonder if they got extra time for photos as part of that.
Me too. But I'll just note, I think you have to have played the first Spiderman game and Miles Morales to really get it. It needs that emotional build up over time.
