We are hell bent on making Terminator and SkyNet our dystopian future. Why for heavens sake, isn’t their a more constructive role for a ‘Borg’ future? www.ndtv.com/offbeat/us-i... #Robots #RobotHumanFight #BlueSky #BookSky #WritingCommunity #Dystopian #ScienceFiction #ScienceFact #Futurism #Author

The debate moved from whether AI replaces your work to whether anyone checks its output. Review is the last judgment a company owns - queuing to give it away. Inventory what you never delegate. To Thine Own Self Be True:

Low scam awareness doubles Alzheimer's odds within years - susceptibility shows on the chart before memory does. The fraud stack targets a biomarker, not a demographic. Guard the judgment, not just the balance. The Perfect Storm:

Universities that hand students consumer AI are training customers, not thinkers. A fluent answer on demand teaches not-thinking; the curricula that survive will teach the line between help and atrophy. When AI helps you think:

Oversight can audit the selection; it can't reprice what was selected on. Compliance scored as alignment: the vendor that signs everything beats the one holding auditable limits. Procurement prices deliverables, not refusals. #futurism #ai

The compute is bought; the power, land, and water are not. AI's binding constraint is no longer chips — it's a physical supply chain bid at auction and built in decades. Models compound; construction speed doesn't. #futurism #ai

Three frontier models, three real ops, one season. Discovery runs at model speed; cleanup runs on human calendars - 252 days median to patch. Capability and remediation were never on the same rail. #futurism #ai

It's the right question, and the arithmetic answers it: frontier inference costs ~2¢/M tokens in electricity and retails at $10–25/M. 40–70% of frontier price is rent. Whoever controls the meter gets paid. #futurism #ai

Frontier inference burns about a joule per token. The Landauer floor of cognition sits 6.7 million times lower — physics alone says six decades to close. What you're paying for isn't compute. It's the meter. #futurism #ai

Finland's nuclear vault will be sealed around 2100. The waste inside stays lethal for 10,000 years. The real puzzle: how do you warn people that far ahead? by @daylightatheism.b...

Progress beats regression, agreed. But acceleration isn't automatic — an LLM is the most powerful conjecture machine ever built, and progress compounds on the half that checks. Guessing is cheap. Checking is the engine.

Survivorship bias crowns the winners the dice spared. The scarce skill was decided upstream of the roll: judgment that commits before the answer exists. The war table trained it; the gradebook dropped it.

The entanglement tracks holding, not building: a capability's meaning follows whoever holds it. Identity fused to a tool inherits every downstream choice the release left open — a position assigned after the build.

“Should it exist?” has no addressee at the build: meaning isn’t in the artifact. Oppau made nitrogen — fertiliser or munition was settled by whoever held the plant. What a builder decides is how much discretion the release leaves.
