Dinosaur shapes would be very cool tho.

I think it was supposed to be but they forgot he is dead.

You probably can simulate an intelligent creature in one of those 3ghz pentium processors. There are creatures with relatively simple neuronal systems that are capable of complex thinking, like the pack hunting velvet worms, or those tool using ants.

The thing is that the theory for how that works does not seem to exist. Chat got is a glorified Markov chain. It does not understand what it is saying. It cant it just calculates wich is the most likely token to produce next. It does not manipulate any categories or does anything resembling thought. Wolfram alpha does. That’s the true state of the art. But there is a long way to go.

Exactly. Wolfram alpha is much more like a brain than the llms.

You love to see it.

Nha, it’s fine. In fact she sounds way less annoying in Spanish than in English. She talks too slow tho.

Yhea exactly, it however also benefits some very reactionary local interests, so it balances out.

I think the yanks just have too much influence.

Besides that, Mexico has a propensity for fascism, it’s one of those countries were the modern state developed alongside a warlord class instead of a capitalist class, so the state was modernity and the middle classes were beourocrats. So there wasn’t the progressive force of new production arrangements, and similar to turkey this resulted in the warlords just assimilating into the resources of the modern state.

As of now I think our biggest problem is organized crime, wich is backed by

And ignored by the Mexican government. Mostly due to collusion.

Death to america of course

Not necessarily. It seems like a very strong guarantee. Any change as to how they are run, or movement towards privatisation would be almost imposible now, wich is both good and bad.

Death to america of course.

Yes this is s good point. There are just less bonding opportunities.

I agree that education institutions were always under resourced, and I think we are seeing the conveniences of that. the difference is that before the pandemic it was easier to hide, due to little parental supervision, afterwards it’s harder to lie to ourselves when we see that kids were mostly messing around.

Yes, and also they like using education as a carrot to dangle in front of normal people “you too can become on of us”.

And pointing at the few who make it as evidence of meritocracy.

Death to america of course

Libs really like school.

Now that you mention, this seems fairly normal. I wonder if it is physiological, that we are more likely to make friends in our teens. Or if it has something to do with free time, and material interests.

The reason libs linked school so much, is because of the meritocracy myth. This idea of transcending your condition via education is deeply held and cherished by libs. And while this may be the case some times, it often isn’t. But it gives legitimacy to the regime.

One of the reasons they hate remote schools, it’s because it became obvious to many parents that there were 2-3 house of actual learning a day, and the rest was just messing around. That goes against the previously mentioned belief.

So blaming lockdowns for poor education outcomes is a straight forward reaction.

It’s sad to see many people here pedaling this bullshit.

I mask as soon as I leave my house and still get a fever every other month because we stoped locking down, when I used to be supper healthy.

We should be still locking down.

Poor performance is due to cellphones, lack of discipline, boring clases, school emphasis on other bullshit that’s not really educational, a cultural dislike of math, poor diets, general economic malaise, etc.

They were never private. They are run by their respective trade unions, wich in practice work more like medieval guilds, were positions in the company can be inherited, sold, etc.

Sometimes the companies subcontract stuff, and those are awarded to the families of other guild members.

There are also a lot of benefits for high ranking members like I limited free electricity for life. On the other hand if I exceed my allowed use I get fined into space.

There were some reforms made by the libs to make the companies more competitive, by bringing some accountability, but they were mostly half assed. And never did anything. Except annoy the most reactionary sectors in Mexican society, who all support amlo.

This reform doesn’t do anything except give them a guarantee that things will stay as they are. Rigthnow Mexico has oil for 15 years or so. And the government invests more money in pemex than it gets out, so it basically is subsidizing the high living standards of high ranking guildsmen.

Death to america, of course

Also it’s more expensive to use than buses, and ignores most tows, so only tourists use it.

But other trains would be cool, there used to be a Guadalajara-Mordor city train, that one would get a lot of use.

I thought, the site was against the activity, indulging in the mystery pills in rural Mexico with a dude who just picked you off the road, is probably not good advice.

But now I see I probably spelled it wrong, no idea what it originally was tho.
