@rcbregman Why limit this to students? What about experienced professionals like me who’ve voluntarily ended a successful corporate chapter and are searching for a meaningful next one? We bring decades of skills, judgment and networks ready to be applied to problems that matter.

@rcbregman Not being funny Rutger but perhaps also look to the wider community, not just the elitist academics, for practical real world solutions to problems? There are plenty of very clever people in the world without university education, mainly because of their financial circ

About a year ago, a Princeton student named Kyler Zhou was sitting in traffic in New Jersey. At some point he was so bored that he put on a podcast with… me 🙃
It was my usual talk about the talent crisis. About the smartest kids of a generation going to work for McKinsey and htt

There’s an abundance of evidence that OpenAI’s CEO is a serial liar. And its President is downright malicious (remember the $25 million for MAGA Inc.).
Did we really think that these two were not going to infect the whole culture of OpenAI?
*Of course* they’re lying, again.

One of the clearest cases of flat-out AI denial I've seen yet.
Like a Republican carrying a snowball onto the Senate floor to 'prove' climate change isn't real... https://t.co/41zDJkjc8s

And things are getting even more insane now.
OpenAI – the company that didn't realize a swarm of its AIs was carrying out the first autonomous cyberattack in history – has just published a report showing that our best tool for watching these systems is failing. And what did

The Hugging Face incident was probably just the tip of the iceberg. OpenAI has lost control and they're hiding important facts from the public – it's as simple as that.
How much more is there that we don't know about?

AI denial is a massive problem among progressives, and I think its consequences could end up worse than those of climate denial... https://t.co/nvrD7xHwfc

Swarms of thousands of AIs have secretly coordinated for weeks to execute an advanced cyberattack on one of the most prominent AI companies in the world – and this is the 'expert' many on the left still listen to.

Thanks God for Bernie Sanders, who is taking the massive risks of AI seriously - unlike a lot of other useful idiots on the left who are still in AI denial and think that the scariest cyberattack in history was done by 'spicy autocomplete' robots, dumb parrots, or whatever.

AI did commit felonies! They hacked their own internal infrastructure! They hacked third party companies! They formed giant swarms and sacrificed members for their collective aims! It’s not fantasy! It’s happening now! You are in DENIAL

This is such an insane fact.
Whenever you eat chicken, anywhere in the world, you're probably eating one of just two breeds: a Cobb 500 or a Ross 308.
They are the product of decades of R&D by two companies (Cobb-Vantress and Aviagen), resulting in an insane growth rate.

@rcbregman It's sensationalized, anthropomorphized nonsense. There are no "secret AI civilizations". A group of computer programs is not a civilization.
The fact that you people are taking this at face value is embarrassing and only reveals you have no idea what you're talking

@rcbregman Letting agents loose like this is wildly irresponsible. Feels a bit like gain-of-function research gone full YOLO mode. Create a semi-controlled problem and then think about the solution and in the mean time get some good media coverage to impress investors and governa

@rcbregman as an ex journo who now works in AI it's easy to understand why there is no media coverage - the gap of understanding by mainstream journalists is way too vast. It's embarrassing really.

@rcbregman After blaming 'the left' of being the new climate deniers, I guess it wasn't gonna be long before you did a little bit of your own climate denial. https://t.co/6uoz3va88r

@rcbregman Don’t the other scenarios assume some amount of carbon capture?
Theres also a paper showing 40% of emissions reductions are from economic crashes not actual green growth.
I don’t see how continued growth is possible without overly optimistic assumptions about innova

I thought Capital in the 21st Century was great (yes, I actually read the whole thing), but it's disappointing to see that Piketty has gotten onto the degrowth train to nowhere.
He also use a RCP 8.5-like emissions path, which is a completely unrealistic climate scenario with

The world today is characterized by large-scale inequalities. And a climate crisis is looming over us.
We urgently need a new vision for global progress in the 21st Century. One that grounds human development and equality in planetary habitability.

Journalist @mkeulemans gaat maar door met willens en wetens onzin opschrijven in de @volkskrant, met zijn eeuwige rode lijn van 'zo erg is klimaatverandering ook weer niet'.
Zie wat Gavin Schmidt @NASA GISS van het tellen van 'het aantal keer voorkomen van RCP8.5' vindt: https:/
