No idea idea would be a large representative lower house basically, chosen at random but with some safeguards to make sure proper demographic representation

The idea would be a large representative lower house selected from the people to match demographics, so basically a more scalable direct democracy

Doing this with a single executive would be insane

I'd guess that e-beams are the economic limit* of our ability to make computer chips.

Eventually the semiconductor industry will reach the end of history and that will have implications for ~everything.

I genuinely think the US congress should be chosen via sortition to avoid this. We need more sci fi that genuinely explores alternate forms of government

Yeah this is my guess too. They're both showmen (this is not a knock on Zohran to be clear)

So like what happened here

Yeah its very good at explaining concepts I think.

I seriously worry gemini 3 is smarter than me when I have it critique my writing and I've never felt that way about an llm before

Trying to figure out what songs my toddler is singing is my new AI benchmark

It was a huge honor to work with Evan and turn one of my blog posts into an IEEE spectrum article! I feel like almost a real writer now. spectrum.ieee.org/robots-foldi...

Good heavens, it's Friday already. I bet many are pleased. Me, I feel the crushing weight of time grinding me slowly to atoms and recollections, but for the rest of you, TGIF!
