Mandate that 20% of AI revenue (across the board) be directed toward cyber security and alignment. Tune the number based on market-based alignment measures... 100% pauses AI development, 0% lets the market operate as is today.

Using my Apple Vision Pro at a coffee shop and really wish I had virtual rear view mirrors to look around without exposing my goofy ski googles.
I used the AVP outside in 36 degree weather today. A fun fact, the device noticeably put out a fair amount of heat, to the point that it was very comfortably warming my forehead.

Being willing to ask dumb questions is a superpower. Often by far the fastest way to get oriented in a new domain, and though perhaps counterintuitive, experts tend to love it when people genuinely want to learn about their passion area.

With Apple Vision Pro these very rapid and natural head rotations we make new "virtual" pixels available. Effectively giving it an effective resolution = 4k x (1 + degrees of easy head rotation / FOV)

Very interesting conversation with a senior figure from Ukraine's defence ministry this morning, largely discussing Western military assistance and the progress of the war.

Russia is targeting food. Anybody not resisting Russia in the war has some serious ethical issues.

As a Russian-speaking person of color who was born and raised in Ukraine, I believe that I am in a position to speak on the issue of nationalism and neo-Nazism in Ukraine. A long thread 👇

I am sad to see so many proposals by Westerners for a peace agreement with Putin, offering him an "off-ramp" or possibility to "de-escalate" (ban those two words!). Let us go through some elementary propositions.
