I read this sort of stuff every day. I’m a software architect though and I use this stuff every day. It’s not a toy for us. It’s a powerful tool of our craft.
Yes, people can make slop with it and vibe code with no clue. But engineers can also learn and collaborate and get much more significant work done with it.
If y’all are thinking this will go away, I would not bet on it.
Bullshit. Someone just used an ai filter on a picture for internet points.

The same could be asserted for humans. We are just statistical models.
God I hate Krugman. Not that he’s wrong here but I’ll never forgive his hit pieces on Bernie Sanders.
Calling them a statistical model is misrepresenting their functional understanding of concepts.
This guy does not get it.
Lol. How did our ancestors manage to have sex before showers.
Develop a bit more hygiene and libido.
Devo. Whip it. Aha. Take on me. Bugles. Video killed the radio star. Eddie Money. Take me home tonight.
If males gave birth then it would be females that competed for access to us and became physically stronger than males. The only thing that would change is the name of the physically and politically powerful gender.
It wouldn’t make society better. Hyenas have bigger stronger dominant females and they have no utopia. Seahorse males give birth, they are the more maternal, females cheat on them.
Only fundamental difference between male and female is size and motility of sex cells. Only reason animals like us vary in size and strength is due to difference in offspring investment strategies.
Not sure anything I tell you will convince you. For software development the latest models like opus are literally better at most coding then top tier humans. They still lack strategic context and aren’t perfect but they can increase productivity 10x on many tasks.
Do they lie? You can literally write the unit tests and verify behavior and performance.
There is no going back. My job has changed forever.
I use Opus 4.7 in high reasoning mode. If you are comparing to crappy Google models then you are comparing a Ferrari to a tricycle.
Worst analogy ever. Compare AI to the cotton gin or semiconductors or railroad. There usd no going back on things that increase productivity. Only forward.
But not Palantir.
Without any clear definition of a god not sure this distinction means anything.
The point is about how the receiving greeks would have interpreted this new religion and that would be based more on their Greek mythology than it would on Hebrew mythology.
A greek style demi god is when a god causes a human woman to give birth. Is that not the case here?
That evidence seems sufficient. Not sure why you would assume I would dismiss good evidence. I guess that is common, but I am strictly rational as far as I know.
When was the reddit exodus?
Can’t never did anything
