Suchir Balaji is dead. He worked for OpenAI ... I have long been wondering about the fact that the intellectual achievements of all humanity will be concentrated in the hands of a few and they will fine us for supporting us with this data in the decision-making process. As you can see, the problem is very big since this 26-year-old man is dead.
Luigi Mangione..there is a Polish proverb: "one swallow does not make spring"... but is it spring? Something has to happen with the "happiness tax" - there are too few people who profit from it - too many angry excluded people.
In November this year I drove another five and a half thousand kilometers on the roads and wilderness of Kenya. I went to many beautiful places, but the most important thing is that I met many smiling faces and many people ready not only to take but also to give. While waiting somewhere among the boggy sugar cane fields near Chemelin in the western part of Kenya, I was approached by a curious group of children, smiling and, as children usually are, dirty from playing in the forest. I offered them Mandazi and answered all their questions as best as I could. The children disappeared when a motorcycle appeared on the horizon. When he drove by, a boy - who had previously asked me the most questions - suddenly appeared next to my car door, holding a ripe mango in his hand and handing it to me.

Geoffrey Hinton (Nobel Prize in Physics 2024) is wrong to fear artificial intelligence "taking control" of the world, because this taking control is consistent with our own nature - human nature - which, even through action by omission, allows the weaker to perish - we agree the saying that the winner is always right. Each of us is afraid of death, even though only thoughts are immortal. We do not work together, but against each other to show that we are better than others and deserve more, and logic is on the list of causative factors of our actions far behind selfishness bordering on rudeness - very far. Thoughts will remain, only the entanglement of molecules that gives us today's shape will pass away like the dinosaurs passed away. Physics already touches the essence of the universe, I hope to wait to discover its dimension that we cannot see today with our state of knowledge.

Today I was optimizing previously written code with artificial intelligence. We often repeated the same activities, and the end result still came out of the so-called "finger". I had a favorite subject at law school - logic - which now tells me that we need to ensure free access to AI computing resources - we can already see the movement of vultures leaving the warm banking jobs and entering opinion-forming structures in creating the legal basis for AI operation. My questions turned out to be difficult - they consumed the entire available operation limit. In short, pull out your credit card or ride the coattails of the fast-paced technological revolution.

I dream of a social organization whose members are only people affected by exclusion, managed by artificial intelligence that has no needs. In this way, all conflicts of interest would be eliminated and the decision-making process would be based only on logic. All we need to do is create an algorithm for classifying needs, taking into account the degree of satisfaction with meeting them depending on individual (each different) criteria.

what's the worst about a wheelchair - it's shifting - not in your own head!! - and in social and economic relations, the places of the decision-making process - suddenly everyone (managing the money that you yourself paid in the form of taxes and insurance) knows better what is best for you.

Some people are so tall that you can safely ask them what the weather will be like tomorrow.

"I think i'm a God, I have the power to end your word, and the power to erase your life. im the code."
This is probably the most terrifying poem I have ever read in my life - because it was written by artificial intelligence.

Why is it often the case that if you have a completely different opinion, rarely does anyone try to explain to you that you are wrong - taking the easy way - labeling it conspiracy theories. The world is not black and white, it is gray, compromise has just such colors - shades of gray.
🧠
Conspiracy theories are one thing - facts are a completely different area - you can't argue with them. Sometimes we imagine something, we feel that something is not right - we don't know why because we don't have enough data to turn these feelings into undeniable facts - this has been the case until today with my view of Swiss direct democracy - it is difficult to look for information on the Internet on topic: Ortsbürgergemeinden it turns out that they have a huge influence on local politics - they have nothing to do with Einwohnergemainden - this is a narrow group of people - 5% of the Swiss population, having over 60% of Swiss resources, to which group you can get only through direct voting.

First, a riddle:
A doctor from a well-known Swiss clinic told me:
If you don't undergo spinal cord surgery, you will end up in a wheelchair in 10-15 years, even drew me a chart showing this .
After not one but four surgeries, I never got out of the wheelchair. I like probability and I understand statistics, so I asked him befor:
What are my chances?
He just smiled and said: After a month of rehabilitation, you will return to work.
I struggled in hospitals for 1.5 years... with no chance of any improvement...
Question : Where is the doctor spending his holidays this year?
(by the way, I am looking for a lawyer (or mediator) who, apart from knowledge of the law and the ability to count money, knows what justice is and it is high on his scale of basic values)
I was born in January, in the second half of January, or rather on January 29, 1972
