Pain is an inevitability in life. But, it's usually up to you what type of pain you experience. You can pick between the pain of working out and eating healthy, or the pain of a weak, failing body. The pain of studying hard, or the pain of losing your future prospects. The

I'm just a monkey who for much of its evolution only cared about hunting and reproducing that is now moving at 40000 feet at a speed my brain can't even comprehend whilst reading about the structure of the universe on a device that communicates with waves I can't even see (1/n)

for the first time in the history of our species, we are passing an inflection point in which intelligence itself is being democratised. while the outcome of ASI seems almost guaranteed, a smooth transition to this new world is not. for book-smart tasks, we are on the verge of

You don't even need to be good at it, you just need to be stubborn

All these worlds are yours Use them together Use them in peace

around one year ago, i made the decision to stop lurking and start posting. i had no vision to begin with. no idea what style i wanted to post in, or what i would post about. there were times early on where i was considering going off topic and posting slop. but, something about

ASI and similar feel very close now. technically it isn't guaranteed, but i think our path to it now is pretty clear. some things, though, are basically guaranteed--for example humanoids that can do at least entry-level tasks. the hardware is already there for that, and the AI

HOLY SHIT!!!! perhaps everything jared has said and done in the last 6 months or so was just an incredible game of 4D chess to get him back at the helm 🥹

i love learning things. but i love doing so at my own pace.. about niche things that spark my curiosity.. without looming deadlines or other commitments. ai tutors will enable this to become readily accessible to all. fun, engaging, limitless education for all. whether or not

We look to the stars, wantingly. We reign over Earth, and now we seek new worlds to conquer. A profound curiosity embedded in our biology will not be quenched until every corner of reality is known and understood. In our mastery of physics, we manipulate metal into machines

Starship is not just for Mars

I would like to say one more thing I am not from USA, yet Jared's work is inspiring. NASA deserves all the money they can get because they do important science that helps to improve life here on earth and that's not just a sentence NASA has developed (and helped to develop) 1)

I rarely state my opinion on politics unless I think it is very important. This is one of those times. Space exploration is the single most important thing humanity will ever do. And, NASA is one of the most important organizations on Earth. It has done science and conducted

a not insignificant proportion of my thoughts are now entirely about pondering the abundance of our near future. a good sign; means it's all coming together and beginning to feel real

When I see this I think wow we’ve come so far. It’s like seeing the lights of a city in the distance, it’s a sign of a civilization moving forward.

curiosity is the natural state of the human mind. we were born to explore. this why we chose to leave the caves and climb our way up the technological ladder. this natural state of curiosity, however, does not seem to be inherently compatible with modern culture. this

there is positive news all the time, it just rarely hits msm--and when it does, people will find a way to spin it into a negative thing approaching life with a positivity-bias as your default makes it so much more enjoyable

Do you want to see SpaceX valued for it’s potential to make life Multiplanetary? Do you want to see Blue Origin soar as they make space accessible for all? Do you want to see Rocket Lab venture far beyond and return Martian samples at an affordable price? Do you want to see

there is always more upside in embracing the truth than in propagating a lie

Time to pull a LOT of rabbits out of the hat
