Re: Worms that have been dead for over 45,000 years have been brought back to life

2023-07-31 Thread Jason Resch
Hamsters and rats can be frozen and reanimated by microwaves:

https://youtu.be/2tdiKTSdE9Y

It was theorized that it would work with larger mammals but the technical
problem is heating the entire animal all at once.

Contrary to the common belief that microwaves heat from the inside out,
they heat from the outside in.

Drexler didn't say that Nanotechnology will necessarily make human primates
happier, he said that when we enter the age of Nanotechnology things will
become eye-wateringly different. Personally I think the Singularity will be
a meat grinder, an individual might survive it and they might not, there's
no way to tell. That's why they call it a singularity.

The most economically productive decade eve

2023-07-31 Thread John Clark
Mustafa Suleyman had been the head of AI at Google but then he quit and
started his own AI company, Inflection AI, which is backed by Nvidia, he
says in a recent Barron's article that because of AI we are now entering
"the most economically productive decade ever". He also says this about his
own company:

*"We are about to train models that are 10 times larger than the cutting
edge GPT-4 and then 100 times larger than GPT-4. That’s what things look
like over the next 18 months.That’s going to be absolutely staggering. It’s
going to be eye-wateringly different. I think we can largely eliminate
hallucinations* [chatbots’ tendency to make up facts and information]* in
the next two years"*

 Eye-wateringly different, that's not a bad description of the Singularity.
