THIS IS WHY THEY ARE SCARED!

quote:

CHAMATH: "Going forward we will have the ability to read 1500 pages in a matter of minutes (Grok), to summarize it into the key essential elements, to really understand what is being asked and what's being offered, and then to put it in a digestible format that normal people can consume. Then all you have to do is tell your congressperson that you like or dislike a thing and what we'll see is a much more active form of governance, and it really becomes the voice of the people."

Would be much cooler if it was Gronk doing it, which is how I initially read it.

Going forward, Mike Johnson better give us heads up on what's coming.

This is 100% pure fantasy.

It's not fantasy. Copy a paper into Chat Gpt and you will see it's not.

However, it's not reliable. You better double check it. I will leave stuff out. It will make stuff up.

Grok is from the Robert A. Henlin science fiction novel - Stranger in a Strange Land. It's about our first expedition to Mars. The planet appeared to be the barren landscape we know today, but as it turns out, there were these creatures who were as intelligent if not more intelligent than humans. They are telepaths and had the patience to think about a topic for centuries. This long term thinking and problem solving was called Grokking.

The human settlers all die on the planet with the exception of the first human child born on Mars. The Grok creatures raise the child - and he develops some of their abilities to Grok. Eventually he returns to Earth as an adult - with a unique perspective and amazing talents. Because of his special talents a cult like following bordering on religion gathers around him - as do powers who oppose him.

You think Heinlin saw Elon coming?

I like this.

I like this too.

Elon said something about this a couple of weeks(?) ago. And then this CR fiasco goes down.
Made me wonder if Grok or another AI is already on the job.
Who wrote the slimmed down bill? Really, I don't know. Just seems really odd (and fantastic) that a slimmed down version appeared instead of the fatty bill going back to committee after committee, coming out even fatter and being hailed as bipartisanship when Republicans caved and then bent over even more..
That slim version was a real lifeline for pussy republicans that would normally have been bullied into voting for another porkulous.
Yes, I'm wondering if a Grok helped write it up real quick.

And that's without a thumb on the scale. What happens when the intelligence community co-opts it?

This is why they wanted 3-4 major tech entities handling all AI development with government (NWO) oversight.

So the serfs couldn't see behind the curtain.

Any AI model will do this. Not just Grok. It's Gemini, Nova, Llama, etc.

Grok= Based on the large language model (LLM) of the same name, it was launched in 2023 as an initiative by Elon Musk.[3] The chatbot is advertised as having a "sense of humor" and direct access to X (formerly Twitter).[4][5] It is currently under beta testing.

Who do you think?..........Go get em Elon!!!

AI can be awesome but it's not perfect by any means. And fixing it is no small task...

Everyone here wanting to rely on AI would do good to take googles tensorflow ai intro courses and learn how it works first. Anyone with decent math skills and some tech skills is capable of the basics....

If it isn't reliable, who will program it, etc, the answer is everybody has it. Everybody can use it.

It's not fantasy.


It's fantasy because these statutes say things like "in accordance with the Save America's Forests Act, Title 2, Section 23, Paragraphs IIIa and IIID, and subject to other limitations by Congress or the US Forest Service, a sum of $55B will be allocated over ten years for species preservation efforts for native trees in the Great Basin Exclusion Zone."

Now tell me how that gets summarized without knowing what's in the Save America's Forests Act, the other things Congress may or may not have put out there, and issuances from the US Forest Service, along with such things as, what species are included here, where is the Great Basin Exclusion Zone. Also, why is species preservation important? Is that even in the bill? If it's not, that's additional digging you have to do in order to understand what's going on here.

No program is going to summarize this. When they put a 1500 page bill on the floor, you will have to read 10,000x that many pages to properly understand it and just like with ObamaCare, you have to pass it to find out what's in it, because agencies will be writing regulations after the passage (hopefully not any longer though). Can the machines read the pages? Yes, but there is a limit to how condensed information can get. They can't summarize that one paragraph above without adding a thousand more paragraphs to it for context. This is why single subject bills are important and why it's important for these committees to operate with transparency and to pass their portions of the budget in a proper way - so that things are digestible and amenable for debate and transparency.

What this will do, however, is highlight more of the games being played and how it's not members of Congress or their staffs that write these bills. It's lobbyists and special interest (like think tanks, which helps to explain the revolving door) groups that have spreadsheets and tables, graphs, charts, and matrices, showing them what funds can be reprogrammed where, where powers from a former Act reach down to, etc - so they deliberately craft these things so they are impossible to understand. This is part of how the Deep State operates without transparency. No one actually knows what in the hell is going on.
