If you read the article, he talks specifically about that. The people using AI for real shit, like protein folding, can use it to improve their work, because they’re experts at it, and know when the AI is fucking up. The AI helps, but could never, ever, replace them.

The other question Suresh implicitly raises is: “How can you reconcile the failure of AI in the enterprise with the individual claims of skilled technologists who insist that AI is helping them do great work?” The answer is that these AI users are “centaurs” – experienced workers who are assisted by automation on terms that they set for themselves.

Thanks to their skill and experience, these workers possess discernment, the ability to tell good code from bad, and (more importantly) good uses of code-generation tools from bad.

The company claims that it is allowed to operate the existing turbines without permits

xAI has been operating gas turbines that have the potential to emit more than 2,000 tons of smog-forming NOx per year.

the Department of Justice sided with SpaceX in the NAACP’s lawsuit, saying the unpermitted turbines were a matter of “national, economic, and energy security.”

just another case of “I’m rich, therefore, the law doesn’t apply to me.” And the 1000% corrupt DOJ turning around and being like “yeah, actually, that’s true.”

What’s MORE ridiculous, is that’s from 2019. Now it’s more like 300 times.

I feel like that intimidation campaign of sending live cockroaches and bloody pig masks should really be going the other way, dontchya think?
