  • U.N. General Assembly Updates: President Xi Jinping told a U.N. climate conference that his country would seek to reduce emissions by at least 7 to 10 percent by 2035.

  • Is that enough? We need to get a lot more serious in every county including mine, Canada, as they are only increasing fossil fuel extraction year over year and not reducing. Insane.

  • Researchers are projecting more cancer cases. Is Canada ready?

    Jump

  • So it is bro due to the microplastics and other pollutants, additives and chemicals in the food chain and environment too?

  • As China Goes, So Goes the Climate

    Jump

  • This is so confusing as a few posts above this one it was saying how China is leading green. Ughhh.

  • China leads nations with new climate plans, defying U.S. climate denial

    Jump

  • Good for China. I hope the progress is measurable at the end of the day as we really need to get off the fossil fuels.

  • 'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high winds

    Jump

  • Wow. I hope this tech works out practically.

  • Can you think of any now?

  • I think the biggest one that was drilled into us constantly, especially about WW2 and Nazis was

    “ Those Who Cannot Remember the Past Are Condemned To Repeat It”

    This was a load of shit as evidenced by what is going on in the USA right now and other parts of the world. The real lesson should have been to push back the second a nazi takes an inch as they will take more if you play the nice and tolerate. Not everyone is well intentioned.

  • Microsoft CEO Concerned AI Will Destroy the Entire Company

    Jump

  • I do not disagree with this possibility, but the one I presented is also possible along with many other possible paths, some unknown. There is even a non zero chance MS gets even bigger and ends up running the world. We just do not know as we do not really know where and when the next AI breakthrough will happen. No one knows.

  • I am unsure myself. I am fairly certain that if all other current AI metrics were the same, but logic was significantly better, we would have the start of AGI now. Logic however seems to have been the one metric that did not show much improvement when training sets and compute scaled up. The AI industry is clearly avoiding talking about this massive issue in a meaningful way (some are of course), but you better believe this is the focus area right now as the first to crack will have an instant advantage. Will it be cracked and if so when? No one knows. Could be any day now, could be 10 years + or maybe we discover there is a hard cognitive valley that will be extremely hard to cross.

    Given how many companies, small teams and even individuals are trying to crack logic, I suspect we will have some progress in the years to come. If not, AI, and even robots will never really rise to the potential we are expecting.

    If logic is not cracked, a lot of people are going to loose a lot of money as the ROI is just not there with the current state of AI. Sure, AI is not going anywhere as it has its use cases in its current form, but the errors inherent in the current tech will hold it back in a big way.

  • AI and robotics is going to destroy many established companies in the same way the Internet did. Some will adapt, but most will simply have run their course. Microsoft is the GE or this era. Will still be around in a decade or two, but once AGI has been achieved, who needs a software company when you own AI agent could literally develop your own OS and productivity apps tailored exactly to your needs.

  • Disney Didn't Expect What Happened After Jimmy Kimmel's Cancellation - & Is Scrambling To Fix It

    Jump

  • I do not know a lot about Germany and the Nazi’s but I do know some companies were in on it. Who was the Paramount and Disney of that era in Germany? Who were the first to support the party in a significant way like this?

  • AI writes 100% of my code, but this is only a small percent of the overall development effort.

  • Painkiller causing other pain

    Jump

  • Very solid point. We seem to label autism as something different and unique when it is just another brain type with strengths and weaknesses. To your point, what causes sociopathic and psychopathic behaviour in CEOs and other so called leaders. Could very well be in part due to other chemicals in our environment. Like lead poisoning back in the day did seem to have made people more aggressive overall. Maybe red dye no 40 is the root cause for how many CEOs behave. Who knows right now but the data is out there I suspect.

    I suspect more and more insights from the hard to measure effects of the thousands of untested chemicals in our environment will come to light thanks to AI.

  • Canada needs a crown corporation for vehicle production

    Jump

  • I disagree. Robots are the future as robots will make more robots to make everything including cars. We need to be robot independent.

  • Silicon Valley AI Startups Are Embracing China’s Controversial ‘996’ Work Schedule

    Jump

  • Embracing? This is been the reality for many startups for a long time. Same with many game devs and animation studios too. Many technical jobs grind their staff despite being the most profitable industries. It is almost like the more money you make, the more you abuse your staff.

  • Smoking avatars and online games: how big tobacco targets young people in the metaverse

    Jump

  • Yeah. I have had a real issue with the kids smoking in my Metaverse based VR app. /s

  • Video games spending by young Americans is dropping sharply, report suggests

    Jump

  • I echo this a developer with a top app on the Meta Quest. My USA sales have fallen off a cliff, while other regions like Asia and Europe have increased a little.

  • Delusional and grasping for attention.

  • PeerTube just reached its final goal for the mobile app fundraiser - 75k € - with a few hours to spare!

    Jump

  • That is a good point. Sponsors are the only way to make money on the decentralized networks.

  • Amazon boss tells staff AI means their jobs are at risk in coming years

    Jump

  • Did someone tell Amazon that some of the staff they will let go will have access to AI as well and will turn around and start competing with them? Someone should as AI is not just for corporations. In fact it is and may continue to benefit individuals and small teams more.
