Re: Aging & Longevity News and Discussions
I really hope we live to see LEV and that it comes soon enough for our parents even. Spiritually I have come to terms with death to an extent, but that doesn't mean it has to happen now when it could happen in a million years instead.

Re: GPU and CPU news and discussions
Here's what our IT professor told us at university many years ago: • AI will never really work, it will never really understand human language or the world, it might be useful in faking understanding or in some special cases using expert systems • CPUs are the driving force of computing and softwar...

Re: OpenAI Sora actually is dangerous

The three most important actions to take are to build strong local communities IRL, Promote environmentalism, and oppose nuclear proliferation at all costs. We have to whether these awful times without destroying the planet until material conditions cha...

Actually most Israelis are tired of bibi I'll never understand why so much importance is placed on individuals. The Netanyahu administration is more than a person, and the administration itself is not dissimilar to what other admins would look like from different political parties in Israel, moreov...

The U.S. military doesn't just bomb or attack places. They provide a lot of peacekeeping, disaster relief and humanitarian aid wor...
