It’s impossible to get someone to understand what their salary depends on not understanding

I know what will fix this, 28 lanes!

On the face of it this sounds perfectly legit. If you take drugs responsibly you’ll be happy for a while.

In 15 words: deep learning worked, got predictably better with scale, and we dedicated increasing resources to it.

Are you sure about that Sam? Because one, you’re the snake oil salesman writing this and I wouldn’t trust you as far as I can throw you, and two, yeah maybe it scales predictably but the prediction is that training the next generation for marginal improvement will cost an exponential 100 billion (and that is taking your Microsoft discount for compute into account). You’re hitting a wall hard and the profits are still not in sight. This avenue of progress is a dead end and Sam knows it, because OpenAI is selling PPU’s instead of stock and looking to Saudi investment. Don’t get stuck with the bag folks, the few thousand days Sam claims to need aren’t survivable.

Did you take the windshield off? Why? I mean it looks great but it’s there a practical reason?

Lofi girl, I don’t have to think about a playlist, it’s easy listening that soothes the hyperactive monkey that lives right behind my prefrontal cortex.

I don’t know about lots of power. I don’t want to be defeatist, I vote for survival and I do what’s in my power to spare the planet but hope eludes me. I’m starting to make peace with the fact that humanity will be facing the music soon.

We can, we just won’t.
