So many commenters who seem oblivious to how dangerous this man proves himself to be. I would never get on this White man’s bad side. For clarification - he could have killed that boy and that entire crowd could not have stopped him.

@QiaochuYuan Even the spiky AI we have today would've been unpredictable just 5 years ago. Imagine going back to the reinforcement learning hype era and saying that we'll have AI in 5 years that can code and solve unsolved math problems but can't play video games reliably

moreover the anticipated path to AI was “geniuses figure out the deep structure of cognition and intelligence” and the actual historical path was “lol throw the internet into a giant blender and make gradient descent go brrr once moore’s law gives us enough compute”

AI is probably the most anticipated, theorized, pre-imagined, written-about technology humankind has ever created. Whereas the internet almost entirely took futurists and sci-fi writers by surprise.

🇫🇷 An equestrian center in Biscarrosse, southwestern France, released its horses as wildfire approached Staff gave the animals a chance to survive and opened the gates because smoke, heat, and the speed of the flames made trailer evacuation impossible.

@yacineMTB Being painfully self aware about your vices is a fate I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. It's like having split personality disorder and watching someone else control your body 50% of the time
