The math isn't mathing.  The world spends more than three times as much on fossil fuel subsidies as it would cost to transition to clean economies for a safe climate and air.  The solutions are ready and the money is there. What’s needed now is action at scale: bit.ly/3UFnsYq #CleanAirDay

Unsurprisingly excellent piece from Ted Chiang about LLMs and particularly about Claude. Claude (or any other LLM) is not conscious or "intelligent" in the general understanding of the word, but if it were, then it would be, essentially, a slave. www.theatlantic.com/philosophy/2...

He looks at it
Says: Hmm...
