(deep movie style voiceover) It wasn't a mistake

Thanks for the reminder to cancel Disney+. As my wacky Jethro Tull loving high school history teacher used to say, "you gotta hit 'em in the pocketbook". That was his primary take from all of U.S. History. And he's right. So let's really hit them where it hurts: the money.

The LLM / GAI people are hitting exponential difficulty walls with massively diminishing returns. I don’t care how many GPUs and “training data” you throw at the problem, you can’t brute force your way out of this… but you can certainly waste billions trying. My self driving car bet with Carmack is the canary in the coal mine. When, and only when, we have fully autonomous SAE level 5 self driving cars, we thus by definition have true, full general purpose artificial Intelligence: https://blog.codinghorror.com/the-2030-self-driving-car-bet/

well I just learned the hard way that graphene thermal pads only work if you have TREMENDOUS pressure between the heatsink and CPU, and are hideously bad otherwise.

And then they came for the Jimmy Kimmel, and I was like... well... OK, that's a reasonable pawn sacrifice to improve our board position. Unless he re-launches The Man Show.

“My mother had a scheduling algorithm: look for something that you can to do and do it. Instead of planning, she just said look for something that needs to be done and do it. It worked for her for ninety years.” – Donald Knuth https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Knuth

How it started.
How it's going.

The last line in The Road (2006): “Once there were brook trout in the streams in the mountains. You could see them standing in the amber current where the white edges of their fins wimpled softly in the flow. They smelled of moss in your hand. Polished and muscular and torsional. On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in its becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again. In the deep glens where they lived all things were older than man and they hummed of mystery.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road
