Probably whatever makes him more money.
I'm not 100% sure but I think it's from a time when spoons were rarer and everyone had their own spoon. So, to discard your spoon meant you're done with eating for good.
Finnish ones (some sayings here too):
- "Ski into a spruce!" -> Get lost!
- "So the forest answers as one calls into it" -> what comes around goes around
- "If you reach for the spruce you'll fall into the juniper" -> don't bite more than you can chew
- "to be like hit on the head with a piece of wood" -> to be baffled
- "it went into the forest" -> something failed
- "to have own cow in the ditch" -> to have their own hidden agenda behind a request or actions
- "to throw the spoon into the corner" -> to die
Been on PS+ for 7 years and canceled it immediately when I saw the price hike. Also, not going to buy consoles anymore since they've gone to shit.
He's making great arguments for one abortion that would've made the world a much better place.
Depends on how you define meaning. I find meaning in experiencing the life. It may be predetermined or have random elements in it but the experience is unique to me.
Anyway, given all we know about us and the universe I haven't heard a coherent proposal of how free will could work. So, until there's good evidence to convince me otherwise .. I can't help but believe it doesn't exist.
I'm not saying that humans are just AI, I'm just saying that there's no fundamental difference in the sense that we also respond to stimuli.. we don't have free will.
"What we call AI lacks agency, the ability to make dynamic decisions of its own accord, choices that are “not purely reactive, not entirely determined by environmental conditions.” "
That's from the article and I referred to that.
It's one of the terrible hype trains again... However, I wonder what makes him think that humans are something clearly more than a model that gathers data through the senses and reacts to external stimuli based on the current model. I think that's special pleading.
Huh? The things people do for that wage will certainly rise in price due to inflation. Interest on bank accounts usually correlates with inflation, house prices go up with inflation (if you own one, it's value usually does too)... It's usually only stuff that wears out quickly and/or electronics (stuff that has steep inherent value deprecation) that do not grow in value due to inflation.

Let's see if we can get a legal precedent that addictive = entertaining. That could have "interesting" ramifications. (For the record, I don't agree at all that they're the same thing)
