You make a good point about acts of God here, one I’ve been thinking about. The fact of the matter is that this internet infrastructure is very fragile. It’s hard to get worked up about my job when one cyberattack could shatter the entire thing.
I love this. Hilarious and thoughtful. My favorite idea is that idiots will destroy the Internet. We often think that Hashem works through rulers doing it-of-the-box things like Achashveirosh or Trump, but why not idiots? They do out-of-the-box things even more often!
Sorry, just got around to your substack, what took me so long?? Great stuff, looking forward to reading more! You're funny and you have great material!
Can I add my own two cents: Noam Chomsky is a renowned linguist, known annoyingly as 'the father of modern linguistics', and he thinks the AI threat is a joke. Reason is simple, anyone who knows a little bit about the complexity of an actual *original* thought understands how little AI is actually doing. They're not even close. I'd suggest to Yudlowsky or whatever his name is that he contemplate and introspect about the simplest of sentences to be amazed just how amazing actual *originality* is. It's actually Godly, as we know so well (ויפח באפיו נשמת חיים, רוח ממללא ערש"י שם ועוד מרמ"ק).

If you don't find ChatGPT useful, you should try GPT-4. It substantially outperforms ChatGPT on all tasks.
Absolutely must love any post that includes quotes from your kids.
And the art work... You are out doing yourself.Tell the truth, did AI have any part in making that?
This is just fabulous. You really knocked out all the hype about AI taking over the world in a sincere and fun way.
