    Yeah I'm trading via ETFs and exchanges. I don't have a bitcoin wallet. Probably should get one. Not for trading.

    I got spooked and sold the BTC I bought in late February/early March for a 29% gain. Good chance I'll regret it but as traders say, "no one ever went broke taking profits." This is in my IRA account so it's cheap to make moves. Looking for a dip under 100, possibly low 80s before getting back...

    My point is that whenever you fly/ride/eat it isn't with the very best pilot/driver/cook in the world. I don't know you, but no one here can afford that. It's with someone deemed "good enough." Even if it's an extremely high standard. Self-driving cars already have a better safety record than...

    Using your examples, are you only willing to fly/ride/eat if the pilot/driver/cook is the very best in the world?

    On a lighter note, I highly recommend the Merlin app from Cornell. It's free and uses AI and you're phone's microphone to identify bird songs. Very cool. I'm keeping "Yellow-rumped Warbler" in my pocket for a classy-sounding insult.

    It doesn't need either of those things to be useful. I think of most complex problems as a nonlinear programming optimization problem, where it's either impossible or impractical to prove a solution is the global optimum. In practice, you don't need the very best possible solution. You need a...

    Just sold some ITM 300 July puts @31. Was looking to buy around 300 so I'd be happy to get in for 270.

    I really don't think I am. Simple construct: when AI is trained to play chess, does it not try to win? How is that different from a goal? I'm looking at it from a "black box" perspective: examine inputs and outputs, making no assumptions about what's going on in-between. Please explain your...

    "It's bad parenting, not the child." Maybe. Did they specifically try to program the model to use blackmail? I don't find it at all hard to believe that a LLM would attempt to use methods we think are wrong to achieve it's goals. People do. Animals do. One doesn't need any deep moral...

    Looking back, I missed the one-more-low dip to 75. Also chickened out on TSLA and sold at even. Oh well, my BTC trade is doing well. Looking to sell near 125k.

    The greatest flaw of capitalism + the narrative of false values

    IDEA 
    This. All this. Capitalism is a democratic economic system founded on freedom. That may sound corny but it's true. People can argue forever about what system "should" be best, but what maters most is results. And no system has done more to lift people out of poverty than capitalism. And you...
