Let's say I agree the concept of mind is relative, would you be willing to accept a rock has a mind?

By defaming intelligence you aren't making the AI sound smarter. But you are making yourself the fool.

"If the west doesn't build it then China will" is a claim to a timeline. And in the context of governments, most would assume you're talking about less than 100 years.

Because asking AI to do humans is still uncanny. Pixar and Ghibli was already ruined by AI...

Here's hoping they don't further solve it with a nuclear winter

Considering it was under Mao that Xi's family was exiled it is a rather salient comparison.

Edit: and we can know how much power Mao had by how big of a power vacuum he left. The fact of the matter is it is a single party republic, and that's why Mao was replaced with someone more sensible. If there was a sizable power vacuum things would not have turned out this way.

Which ones ship to the states? I bought shoes little over a month ago and it is already developing holes. Normally I buy xero shoes but the tarrifs on China has made it less affordable

I mean at least 1/3 of Americans say it's why we have the 2nd amendment. And 2/3 of the Supreme Court would likely agree, just they wouldn't admit we are at that point where it is necessary. It's ingrained in our culture down to the American revolution. But yeah, whenever leftist groups arm themselves they get wiped out, see the Black Panthers as an example.

Xi has no more absolute power over the government than Mao had (who was forced to step aside). And saying it is in no way democratic is patently false considering all their politicians need to be elected in at the local level. Lastly, Xi's family was exiled from Beijing and they survived only to have Xi become the leader.

Psychedelics doesn't magically make a bad person into a good person, just look at Joe Rogan. Though I am all for putting the entire admin deep into a k-hole that they will never escape from

Yeah, it's only our fault if they die a peaceful death instead of going to trial

Yes, code harnesses help by providing deterministic feedback like with a language server and reduce the amount of prompting requirements. I guess I should have led with that example 😅
