Ah yes, an Ukrainian publication is spreading Russian propaganda, that’s what you’re saying?

The all-caps delivery really frames your thesis beautifully.

Generative AI is just the tip of the iceberg. For example, Huawei AI targets industry upgrades as opposed to chatbots. This has applications in medicine, robotics, research, hardware design. Letting your biases blind you to what’s actually happening with technology leads to myopia.

I’m just pointing out that it makes little sense to talk about how technology will develop in the next 5 years while ignoring the biggest factor that will drive the direction of technological development.

It makes no sense to think about the future of technology while ignoring one of the biggest technological developments to date. Whatever you think of AI, it’s necessarily going to shape every aspect of technological development going forward.

One example I can give you off top of my head is that traditional user interfaces will likely be going away. There’s no need to have a complex UI the user has to learn to navigate when you can just use language to describe what you want. You will just ask the agent to find whatever information you need, and present it in a specific way to you. Think of it as having a personal secretary who compiles information for you, and makes presentations.

Thank you for taking your valuable time away from huffing gas to share this invaluable insight.

Rutte’s unique approach to English merely reflects the fact that his intellectual ceiling would challenge even the most ambitious root vegetable.

I have it on good authority that they’re weeks away from having a nuclear weapon.

North Atlantic Terrorist Organization has spoken!

Wouldn’t Texas be at the top of the list of states most likely to exit?

The knowledge that western domination over the world is crumbling, that neolibarlism is becoming discredited, and that the capitalist system is imploding. Meanwhile, there’s plenty of positive news coming out China every day. China is building infrastructure, transitioning off fossil fuels, and improving the standard of living for its people. China is showing what an alternative cooperative model of development looks like, one that’s not based on constant war and exploitation.

Iran could enforce selective closing very easily because they can shoot across the strait from the coast. It’s a mountainous region where Iran has a bunch of missile installations which would be very difficult to dislodge. Iran can also trivially enforce a full closing because the strait is very shallow. All they’d have to do would be to scuttle a couple of corvettes there, and it would be completely impassible. Full closure would be the nuclear option.

oh absolutely

welcome to the world that capitalism built

The best outcome here would be the west imploding economically and turning on itself while the global south moves on.

that is a big part of it to be sure

Clearly they think Russians are dumb enough to fall for Minsk 3 here.

Russia has had a consistent position that they only see a ceasefire happening as a result of negotiations which Ukraine abandoned.

stay mad

You’re right, Burgerland is an economic joke that’s becoming economically isolated globally.
