Check the post history. It’s pretty obvious

I have no idea why they would do that. Outside blatant corruption, which we shouldn't discount.

> Outside blatant corruption

Are we acting like this is a low probability outcome?

Also if a person always wanted to write a book I don’t think prompting an AI will scratch that itch.

Except the models don’t actually compute anything other than text generation. The entire way they interact with computers is through the shell or other api layers on the OS

Indie games are already bigger than ever as far as I know.

How so?

I guess because gold isn't created by decree?

Supply is only one half of value. The demand for gold is almost entirely speculative, whereas dollars can be directly used for almost anything.

The issue isn't it's usefulness in small transactions. The issue is who decides. In the case of gold a huge distributed system decides the valuation of Gold. Yes we usually use USD as the comparator. But there is a Gold:RealEstate ratio, Gold:Oil Ratio, Gold:Bread ratio. No single or small number of actors can change that in a meaningful/reliable way.[1] Whereas USD can, and has been, printed at an exponential rate.

This isn’t a political move. It’s a pension fund derisking a small part of their investments by moving them out of a riskier asset.

For rentals I get that. We own 2 EVs and a charger at home. Easiest driving experience ever. We just plug it in.

I’m terms of upgrading your daily life, never going to a petrol station is a great upgrade.

Haven’t quite made it in our house, we went once or twice last year to charge on a long trip. Didn’t go in.

Graphite predates AI code reviews. Obviously includes it now, but the original selling point was support for stacking PRs.

I've seen this statement before. I'm not sure why my nation winning AI, whatever that means (first to AGI?), is better for me than some other nation?
