There is a tremendous amount of progress happening in World Models. Multiple labs have raised more than $1B. WMs were the star of GTC. They are a real path to embodied AI. So @PimDeWitte & I wrote a comprehensive 19k word overview of World Models. notboring.co/p/world-models




Writers in the tradition of "geopolitics" don't just say banalities like the fact that nations compete for resources and influence, but rationalize a lot of stupid shit by asserting much more specific views, like Mackinder's theory about the "Heartland", which are effectively the equivalent for international relations of psychoanalysis. It's a bunch of very strong claims with no empirical support or even a plausible mechanism being offered.

This whole talk of an exit strategy is bizarre. Israel perceives Iran as an existential threat. We can’t trigger regime change there, so we need to make it as militarily weak as possible. The longer it takes for them to regenerate, the better. The more economic woes they have, the more constraints they have on the defense budget, the better. So, we wreak havoc on them. Wreaking havoc for three weeks will achieve better results than wreaking havoc for one week, and wreaking havoc for three months achieves more than for three weeks. We keep going until Trump stops us. There is no need for an “exit strategy”.
