Re: OpenAI News & Discussions
(According to a quick google search) The Apollo project cost about 2.5% of GDP for 10 years (so 25% total) and I doubt the Manhattan project was that much more expensive (assuming it even was more expensive). Sam is asking for 30% of US GDP right now... I can't think of a good reason why it isn't et...

OpenAI Sora actually is dangerous
With this kind of technology, people are going to be able to realistically fake other people doing crimes and having sex etc. Don't even get me started on what governments and companies might do to destroy competition, have excuses for wars etc. No matter how aware of AI someone is soon they will be...

There are no choices in life?

Re: Your 2024 Predictions thread
Futurism wise AGI is basically the only thing I care about I think by now it is very logical to expect it and even singularity type communities will not be seen as mentally insane by the general public.

Status update issue?
When using status updates If I try to share a youtube video, tweet etc, text I have written in front of the link does not appear above the shared content. Instead it appears to the side at the and at the bottom away from the readers eye.
