  1. As an investment enthusiast, I often wonder how top-level investors are able to become millionaires through investing. I have a significant amount of capital to start with, but I'm unsure about the strategies and direct I should take to help me generate substantial profits like some people are this season.

  2. I love chatGPT but here is the cath, you juts can used it if you know what are you asking, so if you know about programming you can read the whole code easily and improve it or check for mistakes, but if you dont know if like trying to make a bomb at home with a lighter and polvore

  3. Hot takes:

    VR is a fad, too expensive and the technology required to use VR at home isnt wide spread enough. VR wont replace traditional gaming much like the Wii didnt replace traditional gaming. plus i havent met anyone who wears glasses who enjoys VR. If the technology becomes cheaper and easier to use for the tech-challenged, VR will grow to be a nice niche market in tech.

    AI is going to become too expensive to run. We are looking at 85 twh for the nvadia servers next year. Globally AI servers consume 6.6 billion cubic meters of water for cooling as of right now. AI farms will use more energy than crypto mining globals by 2030. If this technology continues down this path, nvadia will need nyclear reactors just to run their farms at full scale.

    Tldr,

    Energy too expensive to run AI farms at any global scale.

  4. I’m pretty sure o3 isn’t a new model, it is an agent itself, meaning code layers tape it together to make the result better. They have a ChatGPT supervising the output of another ChatGPT to confirm the answer looks right.

  5. AGI means that it is at human level, and since we human have not discover a cure for cancer so why would agi do it? You are mixing up agi with asi. Not the same. Plus some things may not be achievable no matter how intelligent it gets.

  6. 'AI will take over the jobs', we'll I'm more sceptic of that as times goes. Yesterday I've asked o1 chstgpt to write a simple function that will fix wrongly added offset to timestamps (that were +0 but Django assumed British Summer Time).

    Long story short it took me 4x retries to get somewhat decent answer in Python.

    Somehow in Terraform or Rust chatgpt is not only much worse, but often borderline dangerous.
