If a machine was called upon to save your life would you prefer it to be biased in your favor or with as little bias as possible? Negative #bias in AI only exists because we insist on using a thing even when we know it's not the right thing in advance.

@thebagman229 @CharlieKir88412 He said you cant tell what race a person is by looking at DNA. But you can tell via the amount of melanin is in the DNA. As of right now you might not be able to tell and exact. But you sure as hell can tell if someone is black or white.

China’s population is 1.4B people, America has 320m people. China has been under a surveillance state for decades- 600M surveillance cameras, they can identify citizens w facial recognition w a 98.5% accuracy and they record every move by their citizens Yet China only has 450 data centers What data is the US gathering that would justify the US to need 5,000 data centers - 15x what China has, with only a quarter of the population?

This is one of the best short stories I have read in a long time. I imagine this is probably what it would be like to meet Bill Miller or Howard Marks at a BBQ.
Silicon Salvage@SiliconSalvage

I told a guy at a barbecue last weekend that I had been buying busted small-cap software stocks at 4x free cash flow, and he looked at me with the specific facial expression of a man who has just realized he is trapped in a conversation with someone who voluntarily reads 10-Ks on vacation. He asked, with great gentleness, if I had considered Nvidia. I said I had considered Nvidia in the way one considers jumping off a bridge: briefly, theoretically, and with a clear understanding of the outcome. I told him I owned a company that sells dental practice management software to 11,000 orthodontists and that the CEO, a 64-year-old man named Greg who has not updated his LinkedIn since 2017, was, in my professional opinion, the single greatest capital allocator alive in North America today, and that I would, if legally permitted, have Greg’s name tattooed on my forearm. He asked if Greg knew this. I said Greg did not know I existed, and that this was the foundation of our relationship and the source of its strength. He excused himself to go check on his children, who, I observed, were not present at the barbecue. I stood by the grill alone for the next 40 minutes, eating directly from a bag of buns, thinking about Greg, who at that exact moment was, somewhere in suburban Indianapolis, almost certainly buying back stock at prices that will, in 2031, be regarded as the single greatest gift any small-cap CEO has ever given his shareholders, and the host’s wife came over and asked, with palpable concern, if I needed a ride home, and I said no, I needed nothing, I had Greg, and Greg was enough, and I have not been invited back to that house, and I do not care, because Greg loves me even though Greg does not know I am alive, and the math, as it has always been in every great deep value trade in history, is the only thing in this country that has not lied to me.

I'm sorry but if you don't think this man is one of the GOATs you don't know what you are talking about. Look how ridiculously quick that release is and the rope that ball travels on. He would dominate the nfl today.

@JimDMiller @tdietterich @arxiv You are a disgrace to your field and academics everywhere. How such an unserious person got to be employed by an institution as prestigious as the University of Chicago is completely beyond me.

@JimDMiller @JoeySchmittPhD @tdietterich @arxiv What are you talking about? Which top tier journal isn't published in English? Even the Chinese publish everything in English. You can't get undergrad degree there without English proficiency. English is the language of science and business and diplomacy. Has been for 80 years.

@JoeySchmittPhD @tdietterich @arxiv But that's going to discourage people from collaborating on papers. We should be encouraging people who don't know each other very well to co-author papers if there's synergy between their research areas.

+1 This is a direct corollary with what I've said in the past: There will be two kinds of people in the world. People who are masters of AI tools, and people who have been replaced by AI tools
Mo@atmoio

"I don't think people managers will have any value in the future." Airbnb CEO said on a recent pod the people most screwed by AI will be people managers. Perhaps we had this all wrong. The future belongs to ICs. There is now more use for them than ever before.

Helen of Troy is a fictional character in a universe that is reminiscent of Westeros in the Game of Thrones. If you are upset about a black actress playing her you are indisputably racist. I really hope the rumors are true that Elliot Page is playing Achilles.

@skesslr @Polymarket Its a good thing judges are tied to bets actually. They have skin in the game to tell the truth. They game theory around voting organizes everything

When a @Polymarket result is disputed, it goes to a decentralized panel of judges. But the system is rife with conflicts: ~60% of judges were linked to Polymarket accounts, and in nearly 20% of disputes we found judges tied to bets on the very markets they were deciding. w/ @aosipovich wsj.com/finance/polyma…

@georgelettice69 Pat Ryan probably disagrees with the court ruling. If anything he probably donates to politicians who pledge to legislate away NIL.

@jmhorp What if a private property owner wants to build an amusement park next to your property? Should that be allowed no matter how much it affects you? Or what about an airport? Or a landfill? The "people can do what they want with their property" folks need to try harder because no.

@seanw_m Chicago has never stopped pumping out great architecture. Even Burj Kalifa and Jedda Tower were both designed inside the Inland Steel building.
