Yeah, I appreciate the nuance too! It's just I don't have anything to really add as I'm the one who misread!

I don't disagree with everything you said but wanted to just weigh in on the more degrees of freedom.

One major thing to consider is that unless we have 24/7 sensor recording with AI out in the real world and a continuous monitoring of sensor/equipment health, we're not going to have the "real" data that the AI triggered on.

Version and model updates will also likely continue to cause drift unless managed through some sort of central distribution service.

Any large Corp will have this organization and review or are in the process of figuring it out. Small NFT/Crypto bros that jump to AI will not.

IMO the space will either head towards larger AI ensembles that tries to understand where an exact rubric is applied vs more AGI human reasoning. Or we'll have to rethink the nuances of our train test and how humans use language to interact with others vs understand the world (we all speak the same language as someone else but there's still a ton of inefficiency)

We are not beyond the emissions reduction stage and will not be until the grid is 100% renewable or other emissions free energy powered.

Switching to clean energy is emissions reduction. Imo should be our #1 priority because we're not reducing power demand without massive societal change.

Amen, only angle I can see someone disagreeing with is trees becoming a potential bank of carbon to be fed back into the atmosphere via fuel for wildfires.

I so wish there were better ways to control forest fires.

From an industry standpoint everything the article says at the end as a critique is correct. We should be playing moneyball, those fans that draw in the particles would be an additional toll on the power grid.

Instead spend the money on removing the emission sources and modernizing our grid/reducing fuel emissions. After weve exhausted low hanging fruit there we'll have to throw money at offset tech.

I suppose we'll have to get the tech made eventually but there's just so much to be reworked on our grids as is.

Fantastically put!

Predictable issue if you knew the fundamental technology that goes into these models. Hell it should have been obvious it was headed this way to the layperson once they saw the videos and heard the audio.

We're less sensitive to patterns in massive data, the point at which we cant tell fact from ai fiction from the content is before these machines can't tell. Good luck with the FB aunt's.

GANs final goal is to develop content that is indistinguishable... Are we surprised?

Edit since the person below me made a great point. GANs may be limited but there's nothing that says you can't setup a generator and detector llm with the distinct intent to make detectors and generators for the sole purpose of improving the generator.

Fuck no society (or at least my country) does owe me, I pay taxes. Quite a bit due to where I live actually, I'm not upset about it but I get fuck all for it. And I'm just a working class person, I don't have any connections ... Imagine all the people just avoiding taxes.

Tax me more, honestly just give me working infrastructure, healthcare and other things that a functioning country should have. I'm so sick of footing the bill for all these fucking bailouts and subsidization of private interests, the do nothings in Congress are the real freeloaders. And yet they'll bitch at you when you suggest we allocate some of the funds from the military into making sure our 'strategic highway' systems bridges dont just fall over.

I don't mind paying but the service sucks 😭

My unpopular opinion is that if you evade all of your tax responsibility as a company you should have no legal protections in said country but they'd never bite.

Amazon's semis and delivery trucks provide how much wear and tear on the highway grid but how much do we get in taxes for allowing that? $0 (maybe not exactly but you get the gist).I mean fuck cars but most Americans want working roads too.

And no it's not smart to avoid taxes, that's bad business that hurts the entire system in the long run.

I feel like you think this until someone who 'knows someone' or otherwise benefits from nepotism gets to walk all over you and the facade of a system breaks down.

The fact alone that the courts in the us were packed with political interests during 45 already means the system is broken as your case could be "made an example of" at any time at any donors behest. That's the fundamental form of redress in a civilized society and we can't even guarantee that anymore.

If only these poor oil producers had some sort of half century or more lead to reap the benefits of their export advantage and diversify their interests. Won't someone think of how unfair it is to ask them to change? /s

I work directly on scope 1+2 reporting. Good luck understanding all the nuance in your ESG role. I'm loving being in sustainability too.
