AI startups taking unprofitable risky ventures in search of growth opportunity and future returns makes sense to me.

Maybe most of them or all of them lose on their bets, but there's potential for a future where revenue grows beyond the immense capex and research investments.

Oracle though... Immensely risky capex to service a startup industry with what will soon be a commodity...

From the article

> As we noted above, the bottleneck in fixing bugs like these is the human capacity to triage, report, and design and deploy patches for them.

...

> To begin, we’ve released Claude Security in public beta for Claude Enterprise customers. It’s a tool that helps teams scan their codebases for vulnerabilities, and which can generate proposed fixes for them. In the three weeks since launch, Claude Opus 4.7 has been used to patch over 2,100 vulnerabilities. (This is faster than the open-source patching described above in large part because enterprises are fixing their own code, whereas open-source fixes usually require volunteer maintainers who work through coordinated disclosure.)

Your critique of the article would likely land much better if you engaged with it.

> AI is polling as one of the most disliked topics in the USA right now. More hated than ICE.

I don't think your source substantiates that.

From your source:

ICE

Somewhat negative: 9%

Very negative: 47%

AI

Somewhat negative: 24%

Very negative: 22%

As long as you're not bound on parallelism or bandwidth then it's "free", but if you're constrained on either resource then your lighter predictor model just needs to save you more cycles than it congests on average.

Are the human mathematicians who wanted to solve this problem just too stupid to brute force for 80 minutes?

Waymo has cars that drive themselves and are dramatically safer than people in most conditions and yet they're only in select cities.

Do you just think Google hates money, or does this only work for hover cars

> Waymo has cars that drive themselves

With the help of “remote assistance”, that is. Which is probably one of the reasons for the limited rollout.

Perhaps you could clarify your definition of "remote assistance", or describe scenarios.

It’s been widely reported, and there were US Senate hearings about it. See e.g.: https://philkoopman.substack.com/p/waymo-tap-dances-about-re...

I have the sudden urge to frame some wallpaper.

Secretary of War thank you, no dead naming glorious leaders very fine people

Can we just call him "Secretary of Death Piss-Drunk Pete Kegstand"?

Thanks for your comment. I will try to follow your example in the future.

The department of education for one.

It's been crippled essentially without anything being passed by Congress

Every statutory requirement is still being fulfilled. There’s a lot of talk, but we still have a Dept of Education, even if it’s reduced in staffing 50%
