@sama How will predicting the next word in a sequence develop a cure first a disease?

AI will help discover new science, such as cures for diseases, which is perhaps the most important way to increase quality of life long-term. AI will also present new threats to society that we have to address. No company can sufficiently mitigate these on their own; we will need a society-wide response to things like novel bio threats, a massive and fast change to the economy, extremely capable models causing complex emergent effects across society, and more. These are the areas the OpenAI Foundation will initially focus on, and in my opinion are some of the most important ones for us to get right. The Foundation will spend at least $1 billion over the next year. @woj_zaremba, co-founder of OpenAI, will transition to Head of AI Resilience. I believe that shifting how the world thinks about safety to include a Resilience-style approach is critical, and I am extremely grateful to Wojciech for taking on this role. Wojciech has been my cofounder for the last decade; anyone who knows him will understand what I mean when I say he is one of a kind. He has a lot of ideas about how we build a new kind of AI safety. @JacobTref is joining as Head of Life Sciences and Curing Diseases. @annaadeola, our VP of Global Impact, will transition to Head of AI for Civil Society and Philanthropy. @robert_kaiden is joining as Chief Financial Officer. @jeffarnold is joining as Director of Operations.

@soraofficialapp Fuck, man. I don’t know what people are going to do without the many permutations of people breaking a glass bridge and falling down.

Charlie Kirk's mentor just died in a freak pickleball accident. That's an incredibly strange coincidence. If you're going to say that's not weird, that there are tons of pickleball fatalities, you sound nuts. I don't know what happened but I don't think this is perfectly normal.

@SenTedCruz Ah, yes. US forced regime change has been so successful thus far. Do not bother looking up any further information on the topic.

In the next 6 months, we could see new governments in Iran, Venezuela, and Cuba. If we end up with governments in those countries that want to be friends with America, that’d be the biggest geopolitical shift since the fall of the Berlin Wall.

So I’m hearing that Trump cancelled his appearance at CPAC this weekend. I’m also told he cancelled a fundraiser that was scheduled at Mar a Lago on Friday night as well for a candidate. Something’s up.

So you mean to tell me, an airplane can go right through the World Trade Center that had steel structure beams of 4 inch plate every 40” using 12 different grades of steel with a yield strength of 100,000 psi but if the same plane were to run into a firetruck on a runway the plane is completely destroyed. Got it!

@asphyxious2 @autismoofds @CuriosityonX I mean, unrealistic unless you're a generational ship designed to do it. But I wasn't thinking of people. I was thinking of probes, at least, in my lifetime.

@davidthepurple @autismoofds @CuriosityonX A trip at .2%c would be a 2000 year trip to the closest star system if you ignore acceleration/deceleration time. That is an unrealistic timeframe to undergo interstellar travel. The wall is diffuse hydrogen gas. You would have to bring any apparatus to utilize it with you.

I don't think we will need to slow down at all. From what I can tell, that wall of fire isn't a small amount of space. I'm not thinking warp or even close to C. Odds are we will be lucky if we can maintain 1/10th C or even accelerate to it. I'm thinking we'll be somewhere around .2% of C at best by the time we're ready to ship probes to nearby stars. That would give us roughly/potentially a year of travel through the heliopause, and anywhere from a couple of weeks, to a couple of months in the "wall of fire" the way I understand it, depending on concentration / area. Voyager is doing nicely, but we could accelerate much much faster than Voyager's top speeds and ship probes to nearby stars to take snapshots. Granted, we won't get the photos for at best, -insert lightyears distance + gravitational distortion / lensing effects etc) So if we can top off on the way out of the system, it's basically an inert object for X number of months between check ins when the system powers on to take a few readings, beam them home, and continue traveling, like Voyager does.

@MegatronMighty @CuriosityonX The temperature of the photons from the sun are around 6000 degrees but that is applied to the contact points. These particles are even more diffuse than sunlight.

@davidthepurple @autismoofds @CuriosityonX It’s diffuse. It may be that temperature but that’s individual diffuse particles. Harnessing it as an energy source would not work because of the massive energy needed to reach it and not wanting to slow down to interact with it in order to preserve momentum and fuel.

@autismoofds @CuriosityonX thermal is the basis for most forms of power generation on Earth..... If we can save 2% of power expense on the way out of the system, I'm not an alien but $20 is $20 ykwim?
