The New AGI breakthrough Is Far Crazier Than People Realize

I tried to make a calendar with Astra and it did not do a good job so I'm not impressed. It took 15 hours to make a 1950 calendar the way I wanted it and at the end I did not like it and tole it will will eventually have to do it over!!!

Data sovereignty is the solution to all of this. When data becomes property all of the incentives align. Data becomes the moat and the value gets democratized. This is easily managed on blockchain and the network is already established and currently is weapons grade. It has been vetted by the US military, is available on AWS, and property rights are governed in the constitution. Do you know what it is? Don't drink the cool aid, real time data is needed for AI to be monetized. Training can use synthetic data, but to create value, AI needs data from sensors monitoring the real world.

The vote on Germany was just a small Part. 1.2 Million people from 80Million. So stay calm. AfD is a Russian Puppet

Nuclear didn't bring us "the entire modern age"… and there are huge downsides when countries kick off using it on each other

Democratization of everything is coming and creativity is first. Movies, video games and creative industries will fall first. No more gate keepers is the future of everything. It’ll be so much better when all the fear washes away.

Tom, please, please, please create a definition for yourself and your audience what is "Socialism". You are lumping a wide range of perspectives into a vague term. If you don't believe you are doing this, just do the same thing with the term "Capitalism" both of these terms live on a spectrum and can be evaluated by the where and who the incentives are focused for and by. I would argue that currently we do not live in a capitalistic society here in the US. I would argue that we practice "Corporate Socialism". You also have not considered or researched what happens when "Capitalism" goes array? There are plenty of historical references, think of "The dark ages" and "Feudalism". In the definition of "Capitalism" and the "Laws of Supply and Demand" the costs to society must be accounted for, if they are not, there will be a revolution and reset. Our government was set up to account for these costs and they are called taxes. I challenge you to find an economic system that does not account for environmental and societal costs that lasted. I challenge you to find a definition of "Capitalism" that our system currently fits in. Our national debt represents all the environmental and societal cost that we have not accounted for. It's just math!

Tom's rant against young men is disgraceful, his generation is responsible for what young men have to put up with.
Young men are outright discriminated against. In my field, the proportion of women who want to do the job is very low. So companies in my industry hire women from other university degrees so they can balance the numbers. Its absolutely disgraceful.
If you dont have some kind of victim points, starting a career is an uphill battle.
I hope the zoomers make gen x pay for what they've done. Especially gen x men

Why do you consider China an enemy? Small minds with big bank accounts are dangerous !

Keep far away from geopolitics dude – it's embarrassing

your critique of "socialism" is missing something important. there is an assumption that you will be forcing people to work for free, to support it. but, if it is "robot socialism", it could have a totally different set of issues and advantages. if there are good robots, and AGI, I have no idea what kind of job we are supposed to even get. if it is "star trek socialism", then it would support people working "for free", in exchange for power and a say in how the world is run.

Right now the cost of frontier models are prohibitive to be implemented in the economic system you describe, sadly.

I am still terrible at ai so I think people are just getting smarter

If women want better men, they need to raise better sons. They are told they do not need a man and the government inventiveness is to keep them single moms. They then raise sons who hear women say how useless men are so boys grow up being told they are useless. Not all boys but if your a single mom and you can do anything. Then raise your boy's to be men you would marry.
I am a father and my son hears that he is a (mixed I am mixed, moms mixed but he and I look white) the most hated thing in America is a straight white man who is masculine and is strong in his beliefs. I am raising him to be a strong man and my daughter to be a strong woman. She has no end to support and is constantly bombarded with it.
If you want strong, successful and dateable men. You need to raise them. There is no Magic switch that takes weak simp teenagers and turns them into motivated, passionate and independent men.
The problem is women cant decide what a women is so how can they tell boys what it means to be a man. Men have to step up and be fathers. But women need to let the fathers help make those sons become men as well.

You just said women did a great job of capturing the institutions of teaching to saying its a broken system. This just seems contradictory.

I think your thinking is not complete. If AI get smarter than a human, then AI will control AI to make new products way more efficiently than any human can. In that sense, anything that a human creates by himself or by using AI tools will be inferior and more expensive than AI doing it all by itself, thus you will not have a job at anything because it will not make sense financially, humans will be obsolete.

If you want less division Tom, why would your recommendation to the Republicans be "showing the DSA and the people on the left just routinely saying crazy shit"? If both sides continue to give power to the extremes in this way we're in a race to the bottom. I once heard Grimes on a Lex Fridman podcast say that more people should build up the things they love instead of always trying to tear down the things they hate.

Thats a lie

Tom talked for TWENTY MINUTES before he even invited Drew into the conversation. I'm sorry but you're missing out on the point of having a co-host with an opposing opinion. Tom, I know you don't intend for this to be a monologue.

Love the pump up about AI. Made sure to turn it up for our teenager to hear. They need someone getting them into the right mindset about this new frontier

1:30:56 What a feminist cuck statement. The only thing he got right is hypergamy.

The sheer amount of pandering to women is off the charts.

Thanks for the Ai Piece Tom

Fantastic, thank you.

They is no way that anybody believes that if agi is real, they are just going to allow the public to use it. Crazy

Terrible read. Not everyone wants to be an entrepreneur, lots just want to work a job to live. The way he talks about humans losing their livelihood is abhorrent.
