  • Quantum computers are not going to be used for AI. They are not a mystical technology that is going to make everything better, and you will certainly never have a quantum computer in the palm of your hand

    AGI on classical computers is likely to be viable, but in a roundabout way you’re right, we’re probably going to end up with radically different computers, probably ones that mimic physical brain structure for maximum AI effectiveness. That’s at least a few decades out though, but would likely be viable in our lifetime





  • I don’t believe you. An fps with ping as massive as over 1000 would be straight up unplayable

    That’s over a full second of delay! In an fps I routinely do split second maneuvers and reactions. If someone I was shooting at wouldn’t be able to react to what I was doing for at least a full second, I would easily dominate them every single time




  • Military technology has got a near unlimited budget, that means you get tons of cool and technically impressive toys and things to work with

    I enjoy watching the breakdowns of the most advanced weaponry and stuff like jet fighters (that we have access to information about), nuclear armaments, and other stuff like that, because they are very very impressive from an engineering perspective

    But, of course, I really do strongly hate them for existing in terms of their actual purpose. It would be much cooler for similar engineering feats to be in use for civilian purposes. But I can’t deny that they are amazing from a purely technical perspective
