LLMs have been around for decades, I was in cog sci and nobody thought they were a pathway to general intelligence. The fact that they are being passed off as that right now is straightforward fraud.
Merryn Somerset Webb@MerrynSW

What if the whole LLM thing is a false start? If the flaws are inherent systemic problems - if the compounding of hallucinations/errors can't be sorted out? If the capex build out is one of the biggest misallocations of capital ever? Then what? bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

The US military's supply chain of bombs apparently rests on three factories. If any one of them is disrupted, the entire murder machine stops. Cedar City, UT: ammonium perchlorate (rocket fuel oxidizer) Kingsport, TN: RDX/HDX high explosives Pontiac, MI: turbofan engines

Two weeks ago, FPRI released a fascinating paper covering the immense difficulty of replacing the munitions used just in the first 96 hours of this war:

Israel is besieging a Christian village in South Lebanon on Easter. A Vatican-led convoy carrying 40+ tonnes of aid was forced to cancel for “security reasons.” Now the village of Debel is completely cut off. No corridor. No aid. No food. No safety.

Easter reminds me of Lakota leader Spotted Tail being asked if he knew about Jesus—“I’ve heard all about him, how good he was, the great things he did. I also heard how the White man killed him. We never would’ve done that—we never would have murdered the Son of the Great Spirit”

As Black Americans we were completely excluded from “white” society. We created mutual aid societies to survive. We still operate with a sense of community today, despite centuries of white society attempting to rob us of all identity… because we’re still African 😅

Scientists have confirmed something almost unbelievable… forests aren’t silent at all. Researchers from the University of Florence discovered that trees communicate using ultrasonic sound pulses — frequencies so high (20–200 kHz) that humans can’t hear them. In the forests of Casentino Forest, European beech trees under drought stress began emitting rapid ultrasonic “clicks.” These weren’t random noises — they were warnings. And here’s the wild part… Nearby trees heard the signal and reacted within hours. Before experiencing any drought themselves, they started closing their stomata (tiny pores on leaves) to conserve water proving they received and acted on the warning. Scientists traced the sound to tiny internal events called cavitation microscopic bubbles forming and collapsing inside the tree’s water transport system. These clicks travel through air and soil, reaching trees up to 50 meters away.

Yes the Strait of Hormuz being closed and gas prices being high are bad but also IRANIAN CHILDREN ARE BEING MURDERED and we should probably be much angrier about that.

Someone should open a university and hire every single professor, academic and professional who was fired or blacklisted for being Palestinian or speaking out for Palestinians. I will teach filmmaking.

No military expert here but if we want Iran to stop shooting our planes down maybe we should stop flying them over Iran?

Farmers in the Philippines are turning banana plants into a fabric that can replace plastic! The fabric is called Bananatex, and it's made from abacá, a type of banana plant that grows incredibly fast in the Philippine highlands. The fabric can be treated with sustainable water-repellent finishes, making it strong enough for backpacks and outdoor gear. Bananatex is now helping companies 'replace plastics with plants' in their products, and it provides income for farmers in the Philippines while helping restore forests too.

What little faith I had in the American people and their ability to organize completely died when the Epstein Files revealed that their entire capitalist/politician class is made up of cannibalistic pedophilic eugenist Zionists and nobody moved. There’s no saving them.
