One can offer a depressed person a moon's worth of matter and energy and humanity's superintelligence to work it with and all they'll be able to think about is what they'd be losing.

Philosophy problems aren't supposed to be unlimited philosopher job security machines. They are supposed to have answers.

The big labs find out how they did it somehow, and they have the same model a month later, and investors know that this will happen.

You can't extrapolate from peoples' answer to this, since the question says that the smack takes place in a thought experiment world where it was defined as being good. The population were just being good high decouplers.

And although I don't think it was intentional or even contingent, openAI did then actually seem to follow through by inspiring the industry to switch imitation learning, which is way safer than what deepmind were trying to build.

The attitude is usually correct though :/
Before OpenAI, there was Deepmind, who were NOT doing it under the excuse of being a more responsible alternative to an imagined rival, but because they were just seeking glory, and they'd basically tell you this to your face if you asked

Psychopaths lack long-term aspirations. In the west that means they tend to become drug addicts and burglars or muggers and then convicts. In east-asian families, those things are more often not allowed, in which case they're more likely to learn to remain in society.

How true is this really. I'm wondering if there's a sampling bias where the lives of comfortable arthropods are just so boring that you don't hear about them. Hyrax also lives in a hole his entire life, but I want to know everything about him.

It still ooms after 75 million launches?
Are you able to prove that a process can't know what lane it's in, or do things that will cause different effects depending on its lane's memory, and bias the concentration of leaks to target lanes? eg, by ooming itself in particular ways.

The act asks for international adoption of the act, and it would be in China's interest to comply rather than to keep picking a fight.
He doesn't make it a requirement, but it's almost certain that he's been told that it is necessary and there's no way it'd pass without it.

I expect it on the back of a reliability threshold being reached where generated training data becomes more useful, and cheapening quickening inference.
