One of the most effective messages in getting tech people to support Trump was @pmarca claiming that high up democrats told him they would basically shut AI down. AFAIK he didn't name any names, it was never corroborated by anyone, and it was never in the democrat platform.

Terrence Tao losing his funding really makes me think about how there was this fervor from tech people that Trump was going to accelerate AI or space travel. This didn't really have anything to do with specific policies and was mostly rooted in endorsements from like 4 people.

@esrtweet you are doing something close to maoism ie getting mad at terry tao (a guy who is reportedly such a mathematically preoccupied egghead he can barely tie his own shoelaces) wasn’t more politically conscious about the hiring policies at his university. it reminds me of the “it’s.

@prmshra @balajis a crucial difference is that singapore has spawned into this glory organically through market capitalism, dubai has been bought with oil money, is dependent on this single source input and tries hard to become real to escape the looming death in the post fossil age.

Allan Bloom was surprisingly influential, he mentored both Wolfowitz and Fukuyama at the Telluride House in Cornell (they were roommates) and co-authored an article with Kojeve.

It's crazy how pretty much every prediction about how AI would be used was wrong. Deepfakes aren't a thing, nobody's making companies run by AI, there's no AI synthesizing engineered viruses or nanobots to wipe out humanity, the singularity isn't happening, etc.

If you bid for small scale DoD contract for titanium screws and just send them steel screws instead, there's almost no chance they would ever notice the difference.

It's interesting that the books of Exodus and Joshua seem to depict events vaguely similar to the history of the sea peoples, with a population migrating due to famine and wreaking widespread devastation on urban centers.
