Ironically I think this self made oil crisis is the kick in the nuts the world needed to adopt more clean energy options. Even if oil is being burned more now, the high price is pushing many to use green tech. I hope that oil prices skyrocket for the average person so we do something positive for global warming.

    To me an AI agent autonomously creating a website to try to manipulate a person into adding code to a repository in the name of its goal is a perfect example of the misalignment issue.

    While this particular instance seems relatively benign, the next more powerful AI system may be something to be more concerned about.

    I’ve spoken to friends about kids on e-bikes and the sentiment is that these kids are being hooligans, causing damage and being confrontational. Have people forgotten what it was like to be a teenager?

    How are our kids going to grow up in an uncertain world if we don’t give them the freedom to explore it when they’re young and more importantly give them the freedom to take risks. We’re creating a generation susceptible to anxiety and isolation and it starts with how we are trying to contain them.

    What? How did you come to that conclusion? Most teens would be far better off without the constant barrage of content these websites push to us. Instead of having these laws, parents should be doing their jobs and protect their kids rather than letting their brains rot on the internet.

    I don’t see what the problem is with using AI for translations. if the translations are good enough and cheap enough, they should be used. If they’re not good enough, another business can offer better translations as a differentiator.
