I use the RSS feed and if it looks interesting I either give a fast look and decide if I read it or not and/or I save those that seem interesting and come back a few hours/days later to see the community reaction and decide then.
Thanks, France is a great country which had lot of successes and the myth of the white flag is very boring. It does stand on its own.
That said, I very much doubt France (I'm French, like you it seems) will have a significant role to play in AI. It has not been a country looking towards innovation in a positive light for at least 40 if not 50 years. We were by far the elite in nuclear capabilities with both military use and an insane civilian usage but then the greens came in and we killed our ace. Minitel was the last time we actually tried to do something relevant on the tech/communication... (read more)
I do love using warm colors, I did not look into making it even more natural, I'll definitely look into that!
For now I have mostly limited myself to lights and motion sensors for them but it's been great. My place had very little sockets so it became very troubling to switch them on several times a day (light was weird in my place), moving everything to voice control made it a breeze. It allows me to control the exact amount of light I want for different times of the day, love that too. I've used it for years now to wake me up because I'm easily woken up by lights. Instead of putting sounds, the light starts very dim and grows every minute. I'm waking up much more easily and in a better state than with any alarm.
I think the practice here is to post your full post and if interesting enough, people will end up going to your substack.
Interesting, this makes me think about AI is not Software.
I agree with the premise that the general public understands software can have massive impact due to bugs, most may know that "Software vulnerabilities are caused by mistakes in the code" but beyond there, I'm not so sure. I'm a non-technical (I have a very basic understanding of Python) and most people I know have almost no idea of how computing works.
I would still lean towards something like "Therefore, a successful "Quit YouTube" video would indeed not be promoted in the medium and long term by YouTube but not because it's not good for ads but because it is stopping the user's future interactions that have a chance of being monetized in any manner of ways, including superlikes, memberships, ads, etc"
I think that's a fair assessment, I did not want to make it look like YouTube was a non profit haha, mostly that they have found that by sacrificing some money on the short term, they make sure they're earning a ton on the long term.
They are not really in control of what... (read 515 more words →)
I'm not that surprised because this seems to have been the human state for pretty much all of humanity until the 20th century in the west? In places in which you do not have to wage war or fight (in the literal sense) to make your condition better, it seems to become normal for the schadenfreude to decrease?
In France at least it was seen as a terrible incident and I don't know many people who rejoiced, although I have heard more about it in the last decade from some groups.

If there was overpopulation of the planet, could it be possible that "nature" would make more people gay/lesbians in order to decrease the population? (I guess bi would help too but not necessarily much)
Not sure if this is clear but it is a question I have often wondered about but I could not find an evolutionary reason why it would be so and this lots of you know much more than I do, I'm asking! Hope I'm not too late though
I don't think people knew much about how nuclear worked and that didn't stop a movement from stopping its development.
