The real danger is that a SK government in the future will decide to risk it and invade the north. The follow on effects in China and Japan could be highly destabilizing, even assuming South Korea’s industrial capacity survives unscathed. But I suppose the world has moved beyond “stability” as an end goal, and rolling the dice for the fate of billions is just another Friday night.
The only way to get him out of the CEO chair is for him to retire or die. He never gave up voting control during the IPO and controls more than 50% of the vote.
There are already AIs you can run on your computer or even your cell phone, they are just really really specialized or dumb.
Even if you could magically network every desktop, laptop, workstation and cell phone in the world and run them all full power 24 hours a day doing nothing but powering this network, you are probably an order of magnitude or more behind even current data center capacity.
This is probably one of the few issues you could really get grass roots bipartisan support on these days. It would have to be marketed right though. Maybe something like “DEI cameras”, or “6G posts”.
No, you have to go after the local politicians who keep approving these systems. Electorally of course, you psychos. Your local city council rep is going to feel much more pressure from an angry letter from a voter than your senator would.
Thats not true at all. The US is about 43%, and Qatar about 33%, Russia about 9%, and China less than 2%.
The solution is only time if market starts bubbling again, like it did after the last crash. Its also possible for asset prices to stagnate for decades, and its happened before.
The reason these MBAs are billionaires and IT people scurry around putting out fires is the realization that constant disasters just encourage customers to spend more money.
Building, maintaining and launching rockets is actually not great for the environment either!
Not it doesnt say to over report your tips, but it does say that if you or your employer report under a certain percent of sales as tips, exactly what percentage they wont say, that theyll audit you, and that that percentage is at least 8%.
And tips are normally reported as a percentage of gross sales. Technically you can report less, but thats a good way to get catch a tax audit, and if the total tips reported from the restaurant fall too low the whole place will be audited. If your actual tips are short for the day the standard practice is to report the normal percentage and eat the loss.
I think youve answered your own question. They, and everyone else making humanoid robots, have almost certainly tried. The fact that they are still having actors control their demos using VR systems tells you how well those tests went.
Its called inflation. And billionaires dont hoard money, they hoard assets. Most of the time inflation just makes them richer, as salaries drain out year over year and their stock prices keep going up.
Thats definitely not a valuation youd expect for a company that had any chance of delivering. General purpose humanoid robots are the other half of the AI-singularity-permanent oligarchy vision: data centers to replace knowledge workers and robots to replace physical labor, then…I dont know, fly off to Mars or something?
Anyway, if there was a chance they were close to producing a robot that could actually function as a human analog they should be pushing a trillion dollar valuation in this market.
Hitler didnt have nukes, but he did have chemical weapons. V-2s loaded with nerve gas aimed at London were one the table up until early 1945.
Because leaders are the ones who decide what is valuable.

They certainly cant make their money back writing personal emails and doing kids homework, but I dont think thats where they are aiming in the long run. We may end up with big business and military paying big money for the real frontier models and everyone else using lightweight local models on their own hardware, cheap models integrated into existing applications, and watered down frontier models on subscription.
Because South Korea genuinely wants reunification, and if a future government believes that a stalemate is not achieving that they may explore other approaches. The US has been supporting South Korean defense, but has also been working to maintain the status quo in cases where SK has wanted to take a more aggressive stance.
