Comment Anti Bitcoin bias here is hilarious (Score 1) 65

First off, anyone here using critical thinking skills and game theory should have already thrown some bucks in at some point in the last decade. What the hell?

Bitcoin made me wealthy. It can still make you wealthy.

Bitcoin has two states; zero, or it grows to consume all free liquid capital and ends up a proxy for global GDP growth. The implications of it's economics are clear, and we now have more than a decade of validation.

This is the very definition of asymmetric bet.

There is a tremendous first mover advantage to countries buying Bitcoin.. but it's a prisoners dilemma; once someone moves, everybody loses the ability to steal wealth through money printing. With the US debt approaching 37T, buying Bitcoin might force others to do so and ramp the price up - allowing you to print USD in unlimited quantity, buy the hardest of all assets, then have other counties.. literally pay back your debt.

What a time to be alive.

Cheers

Comment Capabilities not leveled off yet (Score 1) 21

I was lured out of retirement to build these monsters.

Current capabilities are not yet defined. Until folks know the ultimate performance envelope, any application or lateral move outside of core AI can be obsoleted almost instantly.

You'll see this continue until that leveling happens, or the AI starts to improve itself and there's a clear correlation between capabilities and power consumption.

Until then, it's wide open throttle. Most people either are having a very hard time accepting they're going to be replaced or are blissfully ignorant of the pace of development and advance.

The implications of those three words aren't fully grasped yet.

Nobody is worried about business applications. Those are obvious, doable, and mundane.

The prize is the first superhuman AGI, and it's coming as part of the next model sets trained on the 100k size clusters.

Hang on.

Just a guy in the middle of it.

Thatâ(TM)s why I drive the biggest SUV on the market with the option biggest V8 available.

Lots of room for grocery bags.

This is comic stupidity. Heâ(TM)s bags or donâ(TM)t; but the left is about to get a push back on mandated nonsense in a very big way shortly.

Sometimes I leave it idle when I shop because it pisses off lefties.

Cheers.

Comment Consumers don't want EVs (Score 1) 238

You don't displace an entrenched technology with marginally better or worse. You have to obsolete the status quo.

This isn't possible with current technologies, so they tried the regulatory route. Except in doing so, they made EVs a political symbol, oops. On the other side, you have V8 trucks. Ooops. Ramming them down people's throats by telling them how good you think they are didn't work.

People vote to counter. Good luck.
