  • Why do you hate AI?

    Jump

  • The economic bubble being created between the AI and hardware companies is going to pop and take out huge swathes of the broader economy, a la mortgages in 2008.

  • Captain's orders

  • Thoughts on Kanar

  • I got a contact sugar high just from clicking that link.

  • Developer claims to have built an autonomous AI system that can earn money, pay for its own computing, improve its tools, and even copy itself without human approval

    Jump

  • The problem is that an AI built to maximize paperclips might conclude that converting the planet to paperclips is an acceptable cost of maximizing paperclip production. It might understand why humans think it's bad to convert the planet, but disagree. It would need to be explicitly programmed to prioritize human life over paperclips.

    otherwise we would just switch it off

    If it were super-intelligent, it could probably trick us into leaving it turned on.

  • do it right now

  • What, am I meeting the Pope or something?

  • Only the finest quality!

    Jump

  • Now wait a second. I don't think Quark ever sold shoddy merchandise. Overpriced? Sure! Stolen? Probably! Contraband? Absolutely! But low quality merchandise doesn't breed customer loyalty. It doesn't generate repeat business.

    Remember the 57th rule of acquisition: Good customers are as rare as latinum. Treasure them.

  • The true captain will give up the chair rather than see it cut in half.

  • Huh? I... I don't know that.

  • There are three things you need to remember as a starship captain: 1) keep your shirt tucked in; 2) go down with the ship; and 3) detailed knowledge of ornithology.

  • There is a movement to rename Halley's Comet to Eilmer's Comet as monk Eilmer of Malmesbury was the first to identify the returning comet.

    Jump

  • Halley is the one who predicted its return mathematically. I'd say that's more significant than seeing it twice in one lifetime and supposing that it's the same comet.

  • Morale is plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred: reports
