Is it just me, or has the BS with OpenAI shown that nobody in the AI space actually cares about "safeguarding AGI?"

Money wins, every time. They’re not concerned with accidentally destroying humanity with an out-of-control and dangerous AI who has decided “humans are the problem.” (I mean, that’s a little sci-fi anyway, an AGI couldn’t “infect” the entire internet as it currently exists.)...

Israel vs. hamas? fuck them both. israel vs. the civilians they're killing en mass? fuck israel. remember that hamas hasn't allowed elections since 2006 they don't represent the will of gazans

Houses have wear and tear as well, they unsurprisingly do not suffer the same evaluation by the market as cars do.

that's because you're not buying the house, you're buying the land the house sits on and the house is a nice bonus that's thrown in. sometimes "houses" get bought to be demolished so some rich asshole can build an even bigger house on the lot.

agreed. thankfully my city's been doing expansions of the rail transit system, but we've got a lot of ground to cover still

Israel and Hamas reach tentative U.S.-brokered deal to pause conflict, free dozens of hostages (www.washingtonpost.com)

Israel, the United States and Hamas are close to an agreement to free dozens of women and children held hostage in Gaza, in exchange for the first sustained pause in conflict in Gaza, according to people familiar with its provisions.

nuclear waste, by definition of being radioactive, is the only wast that goes away on it's own if you leave it sit for long enough

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

the other side is big oil

@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

if you cite chernobyl that's exactly what you're saying. it'll never happen again because no one's that dumb

the most dangerous part of nuclear power is not using enough

yeah but I want the power to work between 4 pm and 8 am

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

right, but when it lands at lead it's no longer radioactive waste, which is the part everyone's scared of. chemical waste doesn't just go away like that.

@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

indeed. when you kill nuclear, the reality is natural gas and sometimes coal is the real replacement

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

you mean the part where it generated a shit ton of carbon free reliable power while killing fewer people per watt-hour what any other method? with outdated 60's technology too? yeah sure sounds like a failure

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

indeed. just order like 100 SMRs and all the problems go away. problem is the psychos would rather build gas plants and fund dictators

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

Those are not at all cheap and are subsidized by enrichment for weapons purposes.

they aren't, and the whole anti nuclear power movement is just people who don't understand science not being able to tell the difference between a bomb and a power plant. I mean science education wasn't that great in midcentury america but today we can easily know better

high speed rail and subways have the same problem. it's not inherently expensive, rich people sue and sue until it's too expensive

@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

of course I'm blaming the real problem: relentless attack by the fossil fuel industry

@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

that is a big problem anti-nukes have, don't they?

@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

the most dangerous part of nuclear power is not using enough nuclear power

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

indeed. also chernobyl and fukushima aren't comparable, really. I'd support a law that all new power reactors need to have passive cooling relying on the laws of physics, not relying on external power, but that's not a high bar and many designs already have it. remember that most currently operating reactors were built all at once in the mid 20th century and even then their safety record has been great. we can do better with new construction

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

yeah you can do throium, and there are some compelling reasons to, but uranium is fine enough. anti-nuke isn't about actual technical enlargements. the anti nukes hate nuclear fusion too

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

the earthquake didn't even damage the plant, they thought of that. the tsunami knocked out the power lines and bad generator placement led to loss of power for cooling. build reactors to passively cool themselves (which should just be a mandatory safety feature on new reactors tbh, it's not a big ask and improves safety a lot) and fukushima type accidents become impossible. that plant was so old that the original operating license was going to expire a week after the quake and the only guy who died had a heart attack. fukushima-sized death tolls happen in the rooftop solar installation industry every year, totally unreported.

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

big oil pushes this stuff, by the way. because they know the reality that when nuclear plants get shut down, natural gas replaces it

bullshit regulatory costs can increase infinitely without nay change to the underlying engineering or economics. that's 100% the cause of the price increses

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

china's been building dozens of reactors, all of a common design which is the correct way https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hualong_One

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

yeah, do a nuclear backup for renewables. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_Molten_Salt_Reactor this reactor outputs solar salt, which can store energy efficiently for hours and allow load following

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

also since fuel costs aren't really a problem for nuclear power, you can just throw away excess generation. not the best idea but perfectly possible in a pinch

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

snuffed out by big oil who co-opted anti nuclear weapons protestors to take out their competition

Uranium3006 ,
@Uranium3006@kbin.social avatar

nonsense regulation combined with some high profile failures from barely modified gen 2 designs being built in countries where there hasn't been a nuclear construction industry for decades so they have to build the infrastructure from scratch each time. it's the wrong approach. the SMR route way is better.

you say that like cars aren't flammable

there are so many people who have both no cognitive ability to imagine something they haven't personally experienced or is the norm and have never gotten anywhere any other way but a car.

it's funny to because compared to literally anything but a motorcycle cars are hella dangerous, and the deaths from all the other modes except airplanes are from getting hit by a car
