1/ Skill-biased technical change is dead. @karpathy shows what its successor looks like: measurability-biased technical change. The fault line is no longer how educated you are. It’s whether your output can be measured. If it can, it will be industrialized. No exceptions.

@dharannniii Wouldn't this cause an impact on TN pollution especially in chennai? @Tnpcbofficial #TNPollutionControl #GreenTamilNadu

@austinxwalker @daniel_rosset recently posted about helping @goodfellow_ian out of LC, and a new startup around it. While good to see these efforts, it would be gr8 to know what worked in each of these cases now than waiting for RCT. Time is running out for many of us #longcovid #lc folks.
English

@austinxwalker Thank you for sharing. Could you share what worked for you?
English

@goodfellow_ian @daniel_rossett Ian, since @daniel_rossett is not sharing any details, can you at least share whether this is NPI (mind body techniques) or pharma/nutracetical interventions? There are so many in #LC community who would at least feel hope if some details are made available.

I'd like to thank @daniel_rossett for his help in my recovery from the POTS version of Long COVID. Daniel was key in bringing me back from highly disabled and suffering to being able to do what I want to again.
This X account is mostly focused on ML / AI. From that point of view, many of you know that in December 2024, I wasn't able to do the test of time award talk at NeurIPS, even by video call. Daniel started working
with me in March 2025. By April, I started to have days of no POTS symptoms, by June I was off all heart rate lowering medications, by September I was back to work. I'm back to full exercise, running, lifting weights, mountain biking, and have even done things I hadn't done before I got sick, like riding Whistler Mountain Bike Park.
I'm now getting the word out to help Daniel build a company that will bring this approach to more people.

@daniel_rossett @goodfellow_ian @nealkhosla @ahandvanish @VirusesImmunity would be some of the folks who can help with pt enrollment or clinical trials. Pls do consider sharing with community. What is the use of testimonials if it is only for elite?
English

@daniel_rossett #lc #longcovid community doesn't have the luxury of time, it would be gr8 if you can share what you have with "no medical advice" guarantee. Else this speaks of elitism as if @goodfellow_ian @nealkhosla are the chosen ones.. unless those posts were to help you fund raise..

To everyone asking for details: I helped Neal and Ian by regulating their immune systems. That is the only information I can give at this time as what I am doing is not available elsewhere. If it were as simple as a supplement you could order off amazon, I would tell you. Once I have run formal studies and confirmed efficacy and a lack of side effects, I will discuss further. Applied Determinism is completely separate - it is useful for living a more peaceful life, not for addressing chronic inflammation.

@thejobchick $GOOG is building 20K employee office in Bangalore and $AMZN opened a 7K people office yesterday there. These 2 companies should know where AI is headed. If SW is dead due to AI , why such huge campus for employees? (these are not datacenters, but regular office space).

@firstadopter $GOOG is building 20K employee office in Bengalure India and $AMZN opened a 7K office yesterday. These 2 comps should know more than anyone where AI is headed. If office is dead (as @AndrewYang said), why such huge campuses in offshore?

"I work in Big Tech, in one of the Mag7, in the Cloud and AI division. I've generally found Citrini's understanding of AI and its capabilities poor. .. one thing that has become apparent from all this is that a lot of investors and management are working off very simplistic models of how things work, and genuinely seem to think AI is magic."

English

@daniel_rossett hi Daniel, re @goodfellow_ian's post, do you have any pointers for auto-immune & pots pts to understand more of your work? I am an LC pots and autoimmune pt. Is there a way to reach out to you to know more?

@jukan05 There will be a delay in replacement of human intelligence/efforts by AI which will impact different companies differently. NVDA and other Semi cos may be slower to experience this change as Semi is a bastion that is still slow to AI adoption & needs physical intelligence
English

Thoughts after reading Citrini’s piece.
Ultimately, this is one enormous game of chicken.
AI frontier labs can never reduce investment. The moment they do, they fall from a galloping horse and suffer irreversible damage. The dilemma Citrini described for incumbents — “sit still and die slower?” — applies equally to the AI labs themselves.
And the structure of this game is self-reinforcing. The more I cut to the bone, the more capacity I free up to invest, and more investment translates into stronger intelligence that can overwhelm competitors. Because the other side is running the same calculation, no one can turn the wheel first.
As Citrini precisely identified, AI investment occurs not as CapEx but as OpEx substitution, and this is how the game of chicken spreads from the labs to the entire economy. AI may not replace every job that relies on intelligence, but it structurally reduces the necessity of human intelligence. For companies, adopting AI is not a choice — it is a condition of survival.
Right now, NVIDIA is hiring aggressively. But someday even NVIDIA will freeze hiring, cut headcount, and pursue maximum efficiency through AI. The reason is simple. Competitors like AMD will aggressively leverage AI to build the capability to challenge NVIDIA. Standing still while competitors ride AI upward means obsolescence.
This is the most uncomfortable truth of this scenario. Each company’s individual response is rational, but the collective result is catastrophic — in Citrini’s words, “a feedback loop with no natural brake.” We have no choice but to invest in AI as intelligence. Even if it means letting our people go. And that decision to let people go forces someone else to make the same one.
In a game where the one who turns the wheel loses, no one turns the wheel.

@LaxmiChar @W01fGirl @MoHFW_INDIA @DHFWKA @iamSandeepR if you take sample 'getting up' (before brushing) and swab both throat & nose, and repeat it on day 3 and day 5 (some variants are supposedly turn positive only on day 5 due to low viral load), yu should be 99% sure of not covid. In our case, Dr was disputing a positive RAT 😀
English

@sandyasm @W01fGirl @MoHFW_INDIA @DHFWKA @iamSandeepR What's the wisdom when 3 continuos daily RATs are negative? An RT PCR here is a 2 day process, as samples travel to a different city ....
English

So @MoHFW_INDIA has stopped updating their COVID portal on 02-Feb. Meanwhile people are still testing positive. Doctors shrug it off saying "it's not the worst thing out there". Ignoring numbers doesn't make the virus go away. @DHFWKA @sandyasm @iamSandeepR @LaxmiChar
English

@W01fGirl @MoHFW_INDIA @DHFWKA @iamSandeepR @LaxmiChar Please take care. Also nowadays drs discount even positive RAT, For my mother in law, she tested positive on RAT late last year, we didn't want to do a RT PCR. Dr said RATs are not confirmatory and we should discard. He gave antibiotic (positive RATs are very rarely wrong imho).
English

@sandyasm @MoHFW_INDIA @DHFWKA @iamSandeepR @LaxmiChar Yeah he had an infection in August. The one in Jan was thanks to me. I went for a walk in a crowded area, unmasked, like an idiot. And I passed it on to him while I was asymptomatic for four days. The throat pain knocked sense into us though.
English

@W01fGirl @MoHFW_INDIA @DHFWKA @iamSandeepR @LaxmiChar oh very sorry to hear! IIRC your husband also had a covid infection late last year in Aug/Sep? Flu does make one susceptible to follow-on infections.. Please do take adequate rest..
English

@sandyasm @MoHFW_INDIA @DHFWKA @iamSandeepR @LaxmiChar My husband and I caught the "flu" in early Jan. And then caught Covid at the end of the month. Tested positive but docs shrugged it off. A few others we know if have also tested positive. This variant has that godawful razor blade throat that just doesn't go away.
