The solar labels are in the sun. Behind them they are in the shade.

The energy collected from the solar panels must be converted into heat in the AI chips. It's really like putting the AI chips directly into the sun, just with extra steps. Sunlight gets transformed into electricity which gets transformed into heat in the chips.

Cooling is the biggest reason for space datacenters, heat is movement of particles and vacuum being an absence of particles, so it's by definition cold.

Naturally the system needs energy, the sun giving radiation convertible to electricity should enable that.

It's cold in a sense that is not very relevant. Your tumbler has a vaccuum layer because vaccuum does not transport or absorb any heat. you need those atoms to carry away heat.

NIMBY for data centers is opportunity for SpaceX. When they saturate the demand for communication, data processing demand will be ramping up with no apparent ceiling. The merger between SpaceX and xAI positions them to benefit both from the AI revolution, and from the resistance to it. It's like a hypothetical 19th century textile company that managed to profit from Luddite riots by using them to help move production to Umpa Loompa.

Space doesn't seem like a good place to build datacenters at all. Cooling is going to be an enormous issue, how do you disperse of heat in a vaccuum? Radiators are very ineffective for cooling.

“Full Automated Parenting”. You win a Darwin award on behalf of your kids if you fall for this shtick.

These robots give of a kind of dark vibe to me, especially with everything going on in his AI company. How long until one of them kills someone? I'd prefer a home robot that can't kill me (like something that is passively safe).

Many of these "social" media websites increasingly just fling AI-generated disturbing videos at people. I am sure we could build a web that is actually pleasant to use for kids, but we are not building it. youtube for example: https://x.com/kimmonismus/status/2006013682472669589

My elderly mother is aware of AI yet she falls victim to it every time. I point out the obvious, the AI voice, the mouth not matching the words, etc and she just stares at me with disbelief that she was fooled (yet again) by AI. An hour later, she’s fooled again.

She also buys random stuff online because it’s on sale. Only because it’s on sale. She has no use for a home trampoline, a portable air conditioner, a men’s suit rack, or the dozens of Asian plates still in bubble wrap from a decade ago.

Seriously.

To pretend that you need the advanced capabilities of an AI in order to trick older people by email is somewhere between ludicrous and clickbait.

My father in law just bought a car online this weekend on accident. And nobody was even trying to trick him.

There's a reason the Nigerian prince type stories are so low effort: you really don't need much more sophistication than that.

You agree that AI is used for amplification by attackers? they interviewed people who had worked at scam factories who clarified that they used LLMs in their work.

What I am unclear about is—, what did the participants know going in about the study? Are they aware you are dealing with email phishing or was it just the broad topic of AI?

DalasNoin · 3 months ago

They did have some idea that they would receive emails, probably slightly biasing the results downward.
