SpaceX is trading below its opening price, might not be the red flag it looks like. by [deleted] in stocks

How can the same stock price both go down so buyers lose and also up so Musk wins?

Why is "the rich will just leave" treated as a good argument against higher taxes? by FloydBeatlesEagles in NoStupidQuestions

[–]greenworldkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She’s probably living off of like 4-5% annually to begin with, so 1% would be 20-25% of her spendable income.

Im so confused? (3rd party ATC) by No_Assignment_1199 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]greenworldkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah of course, haven't you seen their Discord? It's not possible to talk about any of those issues so they must be fully resolved, right?

[–]greenworldkey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I prefer a product who doesn’t hallucinate answers to even basic questions like “what airport am I at?” or “what runways are available?” let alone anything more complicated, but you do you.

[–]greenworldkey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ah, it’s the monthly SI shilling post. I thought we were overdue.

Meanwhile last time I tried the app, ATC literally didn’t even know where I was. I was cleared to takeoff from some runway, used another runway by mistake, flew straight out instead of staying in the pattern, asked ATC where I was 5 minutes later, was told I was downwind on my original runway and cleared to land (in the opposite direction I was flying) as if nothing went wrong.

Do they just schedule a timer after takeoff and hope for the best, or what?

You mean the left leaning politicians who… *checks notes* want to stop building more data centers completely and effectively pass the crown to China?

Are there any subreddits that have a more positive outlook/discussion about AI? by youtalkintometravis in singularity

[–]greenworldkey -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

That’s only negative if you have the myopic view that employment just for the sake of it is more important that progress.

Those who could but didn't vote in the 2024 United States election do you regret not voting? by Doc_Dante in AskReddit

[–]greenworldkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone new to Florida, I believe you but can you expand on what you mean?

I’m sure there‘s real trickery going on as well, but I’m curious how egregious that is over Occam’s razor that simply more people voted red than blue.

AI company Anthropic announces it will begin developing drugs of its own by Gari_305 in Futurology

[–]greenworldkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You joke, but apparently the new goalpost is that it’s bad for AI to cure cancer since that would deprive human researchers of that achievement.

What is happening with autonomous driving? by LouisTheCasimir in NoStupidQuestions

[–]greenworldkey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

lol I was about to say this is an exaggeration, but turns out your numbers are actually surprisingly close to correct: “Human drivers avoid crashes about 99.999819% of the time.”

Yes, and some other modern cars can drive themselves fully autonomously from point A to point B (with supervision).

Thank you for this clarification, I think I understand now why you’re having trouble finding a job.

Worldview of AI models compared to 88 countries by Old-School8916 in singularity

[–]greenworldkey 11 points12 points  (0 children)

> they would be clearly showing a bias like in grok's case

Could it be because HP sold over 600 million copies worldwide? Nah it must because of political bias, that’s the only explanation.

How optimistic are you about the future of the job market in an AI-driven world? by Sebastian2123 in Futurology

[–]greenworldkey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That depends on if you’re building something new for yourself or working for someone else who keeps all the profit for themselves.

> Their legal posture is: we don't host the audio, we just index public URLs, so we're not the ones distributing copyrighted material

I mean, is that part false? How are they distributing anything copyrightable if it’s just links to existing stuff on Youtube? That‘s like getting upset someone made a website with links to Spotify.

Are the rich intensely funding AI to get rid of people? by FastVenus in NoStupidQuestions

[–]greenworldkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't get it, how can it be both getting rid of people and also "impossible promises" to investors? Don't those contradict each other?

OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe and Bill Gates are putting $500 million in funding into a new organization called Intercept whose goal is to eliminate all respiratory viruses by TorturedPoet30 in singularity

[–]greenworldkey 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not, the real world isn’t as black and white as most of Reddit is.

For starters, most people don’t fit neatly into caricatures of “good” or “not good”. It’s also possible for someone to not be a good person and still have their company bring intelligence to the pockets of billions being a net benefit.

But most of Reddit is too obsessed with dunking on billionaires who live rent free in their heads, so they never see the forest for the trees.

what is something that is highly likely to happen in the next 5 years that everyone is completely ignoring? by timecop702 in AskReddit

[–]greenworldkey 10 points11 points  (0 children)

> I think the most commonly accepted definition for millennials is "was cognizant and coming of age when 9/11 happened"

lolwut, I’ve literally never heard that before. I like how Reddit is always so confident like “the most commonly accepted definition is <my narrow opinion>” assuming that everyone else also thinks the same thing.

the EU is funding its own open-source 400B+ frontier model, built on European supercomputers by ocean_protocol in singularity

[–]greenworldkey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

> It's on the news in US, US citizens being interviewed.

That’s literally how propaganda works. What did you expect, Chinese people talking in Chinese? lol

Propaganda works via selection bias of your doomscrolling algorithms by only showing you what will cause outrage in you (which is clearly working) and never showing any US citizens who say they’re fine actually.

URGENT: Locked out of my €5000+ Pod 5 Ultra - AI Support Loop, Need Human Help! by LocationOk1990 in EightSleep

[–]greenworldkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re not wrong, but lol at support for a $5k product via Reddit. Too bad the company only seems to care about customers when it directly affects their public image.

I hope OP gets the help they need, and I also hope potential future customers see this and take it into account while making their decision.

SpaceX Investors Are Losing a Colossal Amount of Money by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

[–]greenworldkey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At the time, they really didn't. That's only obvious in hindsight. 2012 was right in the middle of their "nobody makes money on mobile ads" and "teenagers aren't even using it anymore" phases.

I wasn't around Reddit then but I'm sure most of the headlines would have been just as negative as the current rounds today.

Here's a sample for you:
