Why shouldn’t they have long term benefits for researchers?
Reminds me a bit of when CRISPR got big, people were worried to no end about potential dangers, designer babies, bioterrorism (“everybody can make a killer virus in their garage now”) etc. In reality, it has been a huge leap forward for molecular biology and has vastly helped research, cancer treatment, drug development and many other things. I think machine learning could have a similar impact. It’s already being used in development of new drugs, genomics, detection of tumours just to name a few

I mean yes, but it can be VERY useful in these narrow laboratory use cases

I feel like this kind of implies that things will get back to the way they were before, once all the bullshit is “done”. Not so sure about that

What an annoying position to be in, needing software updates for your fucking car. Then what, you’ll have to replace it after three years because it won’t get any new security patches anymore?

I’ve only used it to write cover letters for me. I tried to also use it to write some code but it would just cycle through the same 5 wrong solutions it could think of, telling me “I’ve fixed the problem now”

Thing is, the next MAGA/QAnon nutter will just tell people that it’s the lib’s fault and they will eat it up and vote for the next unhinged, cleptocratic sociopath. Or maybe by then the US will have gone full Russia and just openly manipulate the elections

- Comment on Germany hits 62.7% renewables in 2024 energy mix, with solar contributing 14% 2 months ago:
There has always been quite a noticeable anti-nuclear sentiment in Germany, especially in the 70s/80s and after Fukushima political pressure rose to get rid of nuclear power. Some also say that the SPD was very friendly with Putin and that’s why they were happy to increasingly rely on Russian gas imports. Not sure if that’s true though
