context

i'm coming to the conclusion that more than anything else world war 3 is going to be very confusing for everyone involved

chatgpt and its relatives are fundamentally limited by the fact that linear increases in performance require exponentially increasing amounts of data and processing power, whereas its getting implicitly marketed as if it were the other way around.

so the inevitability of decreasing return on investment means it will be a race to the bottom to deploy cheap, shitty versions of this stuff anywhere it might be "good enough", and over time the ecosystem will evolve such that "good enough" is a depreciating standard even as it expands into more and more niches. everything will get worse in ways we haven't even imagined yet.

i think you're conflating united healthcare and united health group. witty is the ceo of united health group, which owns united healthcare. witty was thompson's boss throughout.

time is a flat circle

honestly i like borscht

clearly biden's childhood catechism is no match for his insatiable bloodlust. i don't think it would amount to much.

the shooter might be dozens of miles into new jersey by now!

apparently he's had knee problems the past couple of years

not a hill i'm willing to die on either, chum. interesting article.

i think you might be combining and in your memory, yeah

A rich person on "vacation" surely doesn't have to deal with that crap and nobody checks too closely if the right contacts are used.

maybe not a billionaire or something, but there's no way the shooter is passing for that. at best they get the customs agent sent out to the private plane to handle passport control there before being allowed to debark. countries still do passport control for private planes.

exactly, a strong moral compass would've cost that ceo most of his wealth, but then i guess in many ways this whole incident can be regarded as a market correction
