Who runs this, and how will they check it isn’t manipulated by bot votes?

I think there’s some type of Dunning-Kruger like thing going on there. When people quiz AI about a topic they don’t know about, they see it answer confidently and assume it’s correct. But then they ask about a field they’re expert in and find it’s subtly or wildly wrong in many ways.

Loved it. You said AI can code much better than you can, but that at many other tasks it isn’t much better than an intern. Let me tell you, as someone who writes code for a living, that it codes a lot like a clueless internet as well. Always needs checking. Often buggy or makes stuff up.

😅 “Today was a 5 blocks of chocolate kinda day, and I’ll be darned if I’m going to make the effort to type that in.”

My fear of doing it fast is that it changes things so quickly that people panic, or key economic metrics experience huge one-off adjustments that become political ads about mismanagement and things tanking rather than improving.

Likewise.

Almost all policies around “affordability” this century have accelerated the transfer of wealth from young people to older people.

Baby boomers are stumping up $2m+ for 2 BR apartments in retirement villages, which makes no sense, but they’ve got the money so that’s the price.

You’re saying you think there’s too many voters who’ll be affected?

I do think it warrants a gradual approach, ramp the removal of the inflationary policies over 5 years or so to alleviate the fear of a meltdown.

In a world where we’d halted climate change I’d agree for sure. But in a world where we don’t yet know how much sea level rise we’re heading for, I feel like building major, long-term infrastructure at very low heights above sea level carries a high level of long-term viability risk rn.
