A lot of snark. A fair amount on AI and IOT, and software in general. Investor in startups and more. Not into crypto.

I have no doubt. I still have an ill impression of Princeton... after decades... Because it was a drab day when I did my college visit.

Consciousness Explained Buy Consciousness Explained on Amazon.com βœ“ FREE SHIPPING on qualified orders

I recommend www.amazon.com/Consciousnes... (written well before the AI revolution). It is a very difficult read: Dennett was a serious philosopher. But the insight is remarkable.

The Desire for Terror And the defense of democracy

I regularly say...
LLMs do not hallucinate sometimes. LLMs hallucinate all the time but, sometimes (in the judgment of the human) they get it right.

My theory: the AI was working from an outdated map and there were not proper procedures saying, "AI is unreliable. Before you bomb, trust but verify."

Reference the work Caltech did to expose and expunge several eugenicists from campus history. Significant buildings were renamed; perspective was added to i.portant names; etc. Really makes me proud to be an alum.

Your periodic reminder that β€œIsrael’s government” and β€œthe Jews” aren’t synonymous.

It’s been very cool learning how many people have opinions about Jews that are more or less identical to those of a Medieval peasant.
