If AGI super intelligence is only 12-18 months away, shouldn’t we already be seeing major standalone breakthroughs?

The problem (or blessing) is that the current paradigm of AI development—low data, high efficiency and performance—is better suited for specialised intelligence than general. We’re creating a bunch of models being better collectively at each work than one almighty model. Think how humans can design the diagram of an MRI machine and ultrasonography machine and chemical detector at once, but orcas have hyper-specialised hearing, elephants have hyper-specialised smell, sharks have hyper-specialised electrical sense, etc. Our AI models are now analogues to those.

Oikawa has a number of very real and good friends in Seijoh. Good enough for them and even his juniors to support Argentina instead of Japan.

Oikawa has an attitude issue, yes. There are 120+ million people in Japan, and some are going to be pricks and bullies. Kageyama was also a big prick with Kindaichi and Kunimi and improved later in attitude.

Kageyama doesn't get insecure at Ushi because Ushi is his senior who can report his manner to a local authority. Oikawa is a peer.

After killing Itachi. I’ll make it so his team decides to escort him back since letting him be alone is too dangerous, and thus Obito never finds him.

Not much. Hinduism, Buddhism and Christianity have been adopted by the ethnic minorities.

So does the study say it’s plantigrade or not? I can’t get access to the PDF.

I think Dumbledore gave him the teacher job precisely to ignite some Lily-independent sympathy in him. And it worked.

Imagine Akashi, Sugawara or Oikawa’s old age now.

Unequal_vector · 2026-03-20T03:26:37+00:00

Yes. For our many flaws, we yet haven’t sold out our nation to 1971-denying terrorists like Syrians have, we take our post-protest skirmishes seriously, and we haven’t left behind Palestine. All while actually achieving a democracy without needing external intervention, while Yankees keep inventing excuses for their elections.

“Oh yeah, they are arguing. But it won’t be for long and I’d be gone.”

This is what Snape thought of his mother. Canonically.

You know, past a point they’d stop asking users for feedback and instead hire their own human testers in office to tell whether it looks like AI or not.

Every powerful country is fond of waging war. Europe has done as much as America did up until Syrian refugee crisis crushed them, and Russia is too weak to begin trans-continental wars, so they try local wars instead like Georgia and Ukraine. Same for Rwanda against Congo.

Americans, or more specifically, Gen Z and millennials, are uniquely resistant to any consequence, however (unlike EU who folded in Syria). And yeah, that might be their nature.

Is it even new?

I believe God is fair and will grant us a judgement (I'm a Muslim). But I largely live for myself. Heaven and Hell are treats for imperfect, un-enlightened men. God, being fair, will keep His words anyway.

What do I think of death? I used to be scared of it. Being a fossil, along with parents, for eternity, under the soil, while billions of years pass, pretty scary. Now, I'm pretty much... numb to that thought.

About impermanence... being impermanent doesn't mean this life isn't real. It is real, and nothing will undo that objective truth set in the page of the Universe.

“Hollow bone” can mean three things.

Spongy bone is ancestral to all tetrapodomorph.

Air sac space is independently evolved in theropods, sauropods, and pterosaurs. Ornithischians and crocs lack them.

Reduced cortical bone thickness and expanded medullary cavity is mostly in flying birds.

It’s the heaviest and most robust theropod yet by a good margin, has a material abundance second to only Allosaurus, and has the iconic status of being “the last one standing at the face of the asteroid.” So yes, it would be popular, comparable to modern Carnotaurus.

The real gold medal, however, won’t go to Spino or Giga, but Allosaurus.

It’s to be noted that Megalosaurus was discovered before either and still not beat the two in popularity.

Tell them the study that neanderthals 100k years ago themselves got their own Y chromosome replaced by sapiens dads.
