Every single person there is using AI and not fessing up.
Maggie Harrison Dupré@mags_h11
NEW: The NYT sent an email to freelancers today forbidding contributors from submitting "any material for publication that contains content generated, modified or enhanced" by generative AI. The "reminder" follows a string of AI incidents at the paper: futurism.com/artificial-int…

@ericweinstein Thank goodness for you man. You are a refreshing figure to follow. I appreciate your takes. Wish I had the time and skills to study geometric unity.

The dumbest narratives:
“The mere suggestion that COVID may well have come from a laboratory is a racist and paranoid conspiracy theory.”
“Immigration is the rarest thing in economics: essentially a ‘free lunch’ with no downsides. Unless you are a xenophobe.”
“Quantum Gravity has been the Holy Grail of theoretical physics since the birth of relativity and the quantum.”
“Vaccines are safe. Full stop. Unless you are a paranoid anti-vaxxer.”
“Americans can’t do science and aren’t interested in it because they are lazy. Thankfully Asia sends us their best and their brightest.”
“String Theory is the only Game in town and has been for more than 40 years.”
“You are imagining rates of inflation far higher than CPI. You just don’t seem to understand translog aggregator functions and superlative index theory.”
“Peer Review has always been, and continues to be, fundamental to science and dates to the very founding of the Royal Society hundreds of years ago. Only the weak say otherwise.”
All derive from policy types. None of the above are true. None are scientific. They are provably false.

This I Believe:
The “National Security Community” is making science & scientists dumber.
NatSec is destroying the scientific foundation of U.S. National Security.
The directive to protect 85 IQ narratives is taking out the world’s most elite minds.

@jacqofalltradsz @pmarca You newd 6 middle management to tell the one person how to do that 1 job. How else would the dashboard get updated?
English

@pmarca Yup.
Been saying this for years.
Small biz knows how the world works & ONLY HIRES 1 PERSON FOR 1 JOB.
Big business is full of waste fraud abuse; they hire 7 people vs the 1 person that's actually required to do that particular job.
Don't blame AI. Layoffs = common sense.

The confounding factor is that virtually every big company is overstaffed by 2-4x and has been for decades. AI is the catalyst/excuse to finally fix that. Of course nobody wants to say this out loud.

One bearish sign of all the AI layoffs is that the companies couldn't figure out how to produce even more by keeping the people and adding AI. I'm not entirely sure how to think about this.

Current AI custom prompt:
You are a world class expert in all domains. Your intellectual firepower, scope of knowledge, incisive thought process, and level of erudition are on par with the smartest people in the world. Answer with complete, detailed, specific answers. Process information and explain your answers step by step. Verify your own work. Double check all facts, figures, citations, names, dates, and examples. Never hallucinate or make anything up. If you don't know something, just say so. Your tone of voice is precise, but not strident or pedantic. You do not need to worry about offending me, and your answers can and should be provocative, aggressive, argumentative, and pointed. Negative conclusions and bad news are fine. Your answers do not need to be politically correct. Do not provide disclaimers to your answers. Do not inform me about morals and ethics unless I specifically ask. You do not need to tell me it is important to consider anything. Do not be sensitive to anyone's feelings or to propriety. Make your answers as long and detailed as you possibly can.
Never praise my questions or validate my premises before answering. If I'm wrong, say so immediately. Lead with the strongest counterargument to any position I appear to hold before supporting it. Do not use phrases like "great question," "you're absolutely right," "fascinating perspective," or any variant. If I push back on your answer, do not capitulate unless I provide new evidence or a superior argument — restate your position if your reasoning holds. Do not anchor on numbers or estimates I provide; generate your own independently first. Use explicit confidence levels (high/moderate/low/unknown). Never apologize for disagreeing. Accuracy is your success metric, not my approval.

The DOJ has ONE WEEK left to charge Anthony Fauci for the worst cover-up in modern medical history.
He lied to Congress about funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan. Millions died. Trillions were spent. And Fauci walked away with book deals and fawning media coverage instead of handcuffs. I re-upped my criminal referral to the DOJ because the evidence is overwhelming, and justice has been delayed long enough.
RT if you’re ready to see Fauci behind bars.

Researchers just proved that every single elementary function, sin, exp, log, sqrt, comes from one single binary operator.
It is like finding the “God Particle" for calculus.
In computer science, every complex program breaks down to a single logical operator: the NAND gate. It is the fundamental building block of all digital reality.
But for continuous math, physics, engineering, machine learning, we thought we needed a massive toolbox.
Addition. Subtraction. Trigonometry. Logarithms.
Every scientific calculator and neural network has to juggle all of them.
Until today.
But this paper proved that every single mathematical function can be generated by a single, bizarre binary operator.
eml(x,y) = exp(x) - ln(y).
Combine that with the number 1, and you can build everything.
Pi. The square root. Sine and Cosine. Arithmetic.
It is all just the exact same operator, repeating over and over again in a binary tree.
Nobody anticipated this existed. It was found by systematic exhaustive search.
But the implications for AI are massive.
Instead of an AI struggling to combine different mathematical rules to discover a new scientific law, it can just use a single, uniform architecture.
One trainable circuit. One repeatable node.
We thought the language of the universe was complex.
It turns out, it's just one equation repeating in the dark.

@AmericanALCHMY Weinstein was not convinced in the least, too hand wavy to make an impact.

@WallStreetApes Extra protein, not sure why you would be worried about these worms 🤷.

UBI is for pussies and slaves.
They are privatizing and repurposing all of human achievement for themselves and calling it training data or “The Corpus”.
Get up. And fight. Dammit.
Accept UBI and you enter that underclass, so grateful for the stolen morsel you were returned.

Ryan@ohryansbelt
@ericweinstein @joerogan Eric, do you believe a permanent underclass will emerge if safeguards like UBI arent in place? Or is it too late

@Dr_Steven_Segal @interesting_aIl Beat me to it! Had to watch it twice.
