Must be location dependent. Where I live you never move beyond 2.

Stanley Kubrick, Kane Parsons, and Mr. Beast walk into a bar. Bartender says, "Sorry,we don't serve content creators here."

Who gets kicked out?

I can. AI says it will solve all problems, like curing cancer. Suppose it does. Now there are no more problems and no reason to run the AIs, at which time computing energy will fall rapidly.

The alternative is that there will always be problems, and we could spend as much as possible trying to compute solutions, but they will not be found.

Sure, it's hard to imagine any solution where someone doesn't get screwed, but I think I'd rather be screwed by underpopulation than over population. I just happen to live in the timeline which I think is much closer to overpopulation. Alas, I consider my opinion to be much less valuable in such a world with so many more voices.

I dare say I think I have plenty in common with those other people, as I do care a little, but maybe not as much as I could or should. I think this is how we got to this point in the first place.

Maybe you hate a certain politician, or maybe you just hate that one annoying commercial that they keep playing. In either case, the tech industry probably helped make it possible. Yes, they hate you.

There is absolutely no reason we need to continue increasing the human population when we clearly have trouble using and allocating the limited resources we have now. Doesn't concern me one bit if birthrates are falling. I might start to look into it if population falls below a couple billion, which it was for all but the last 100 years. But population is project to continue rising until 2084 anyway, which means I don't need to think about this problem at all for the remainder of my life.

People might not care about those generes, but I can tell you with certainty that where I live, people are well aware of the datacenter being constructed on the other end of town, how the town commission rejected the proposal, how the big tech company sued them and said "this case is going to cost you so much money that you dont have and we do, so youd better settle quickly". And they did settle, and the construction began, and as part of the settlement the datacenter also forces the hand of the council to allow the datacenter to get a tax break for the next decade.

yeah, I do write 'Donald', as do a lot of people. Awkward only if you are talking about the duck or the hamburger clown.

it is state of the art, those maze solving things are a different art.

Two of the Internet's most despised (2026) topics combined: AI, and author JK Rowling.

Especially when the Tom Riddle's diary in question has a defining characteristic of possessing and controlling those who read it.

For those of you pretending to have trouble understanding 'banned' in this context, it means essentially the same thing as when someone gets 'canceled'.

People who are canceled are not literally thrown in prison and executed.

not with ipv6

Hell no. I'd sooner tear out my own vocal cords than accept this future.

You mean aside from previous work it was trained on?

I don't think they are impossible, just impractically expensive. That should be no problem for AI companies and their infinite access to capital. Nobody wants datacenters to be built around here on the ground, so I say get to spending.

If it ends up bankrupting them, even better.

But the $1 per day is soooo cheap. You can't even run a local LLM for that price.

That'a thing HN's second chance pool does. If you mouseover the "3 hours ago" or whatever on a comment, it will tell you the actual post timestamp.

Solicitor General Sauer brought up the same point during oral arguments in this case, and he didn't seem to know how prevalent it was either. Seems like the kind of thing you should have figured out before making your case to the Supreme Court.

Outside software, AI is synonymous with low quality and low effort. As in, "I don't care enough about you to bother with you myself, I'll have the AI do it". Covers news articles, emails, customer service, products, art, jobs, etc.

The actual quality of the AI output is irrelevant.

That was after having his memory erased though. Which, if Flock streams automatically did the same thing, would probably help with the ethical issues for those they surveil.

Always amused me that on the face of things, a CANDU looks just like a sideways RBMK. At least in terms of plumbing. There's clearly more to it than that.

No I don't. So why say it?

I'm sorry, I do not take implied statements lightly in regards to medical.

I can easily and cheaply generate nore megabytes per second per dollar by oversampling a heart rate monitor at hundreds of megahertz. Hell, why not hook up a second channel to the same signal and record it twice for double the megabytes?

Do you see the problem here? "yeah, but nobody's doing that" Well, then it certainly is odd of them to frame it tgat way, isn't it?

I have made life changing things with it, just not anything so life changing I'd consider paying more than $25. Stingy bastard, I am.

I've spent a grand total of $25 on AI ever, so apparently my answer is $25. But I'm not a big time software dev like the rest of you.

When I bought my last GPU, running AI models locally was a consideration though not the only one, and I have it set up but haven't used it much yet. I mostly use the free tiers of ChatGPT or Google to write the occasional script for me. I guess they're going to have to inject a truly unfathomable number of ads to get their money's worth.

I have a feeling my experience is closer to an average persons' than a dev, but it doesn't seem like they'll be able to monetize just from devs even if each one is spending thousands a month.

steals from you

"lol, u mad?"

yeah, but they won't be paying you. Not today, not ever. That's a pretty fundamental premise of the whole AI phenomenon.

perhaps it means you are more immune to poison, so you don't need to vomit
