Now it might be expensive for the AI companies to do this if it requires a separately trained model, rather than just a system prompt change, but that's a different consideration.Β Β 

Love the podcast! (3/3)

A solution is to create a separateΒ version of their product(s) for the use by the federal government.Β  This is a very common thing for companies to do, as the government often has various requirements (e.g. about security, uptime, etc) that are differentΒ from ordinary consumer products. (2/3)

I listened to your discussion on the latest Hard Fork podcast about the recent executive order on "woke" AI procurement and I think you missedΒ a potential solution for the AI companies.Β  (1/3)

Provisions of trump's big ugly bill from Indivisible

Provisions of trump's big ugly bill from Indivisible

If the House passes Trump's Big Ugly Bill, every community will feel cuts to basic needsβ€”all so billionaires can get another giant tax cut.

Call your Republican representative today, or ask friends and family to call theirs.

Republicans must be held accountable for every single person turned away from life-saving healthcare, every hungry child, and every struggling family. We will not let them hide away from this disastrous scam.

In the article: "... the answer that Ackman seems to have hit upon β€” is: They all run regular public companies", but maybe also you can't just come out and say that you want to start an investment fund to trade at a premium to net asset value. It somehow has to just happen organically.

No problem!

Take care.

@wtevs.bsky.social In today's Locked On newsletter you say that Lebron is "the first ever athlete to play alongside his son at a professional level". I think you forgot about Gordie Howe, who played with his son Mark in the NHL in the 1979-80 season. I love the newsletter, though!

It's interesting to note that, w.r.t. the possible A.I. paths mentioned in the post, the preconditions for the extreme bull case and the extreme bear case are pretty much the same. It might be a butterfly's wingflap that determines which of the extreme cases would occur in that situation.

That is a great encapsulation of the current state of A.I.
