Ooh, pants-on-head stupid semantics nonsense detected.

First, the government needs to be run top-down from the Oval Office. This is why we call it the “executive” branch. “Executive” is a literal synonym of “monarchical”—from “mono,” meaning “one,” and “archy,” meaning “regime.” “Autocratic” is fine too. The “executive branch” is the “autocratic branch,” or should be if English is English. Libs: if these words don’t mean what they mean, what do they mean?

Executive, as in pertaining to execution. Executing the the duties of a government as defined by legislation. Where the fuck did Curtsy get the impression that "executive" is somehow synonymous with "monarchical"? Did he mix it up with "exclusive"? Even corporations often have multiple executives with different roles.

Mr. Thiel you have so much fucking money couldn't you afford a fascist philosopher king who is more intelligent than this guy who thinks an "executioner" is a guy that makes you a dictator?

It's weird how you can always find autocracy supporters in every era despite the overwhelmingly strong and incredibly obvious counterargument "what if the autocrat wants to do something you don't like"

To be fair, the typesetting of the papers is quite pleasant and the pictures are nice.

Oh, sorry, I got so absorbed into reading the riveting material about features predicting state name tokens to predict state capital tokens I missed that we were quibbling over the word "next". Alright they can predict tokens out of order, too. Very impressive I guess.

Essentially they do not simply predict the next token

looks inside

it's predicting the next token

"Trivially" fits nicely in a margin, too. Suck on that, Andrew and Pierre!

I love taking medical advice from a machine that only rarely tells me to eat rocks or glue. The only reason the tool supposedly has value is because the websites are made to be bad on purpose so that they make more money.

One of the most popular and controversial ways in recent times to use technological means to improve human condition and overcome its natural limitations is gender affirming care, such as hormone replacement therapy. Transhumanism is woke now — hell, "trans" is right there in the name!
