Hey everyone! I've been spending a bunch of time in AI/ML and I truly believe it has a chance to help save the world if we use it right. If you are working on ANYTHING in the space that can help humanity, I want to help. A LOT. Please reach out.

You know this is going to be enormously bad independent of the specifics because the number of people committing of crimes is incredibly small relative to the population of a country.
It could be 99.99% accurate and it’d still falsely arrest FAR more than it did correctly.

Your chart is important but misleading. This may be for the first TWh but the second TWh (after construction has been completed) looks very different.

As a guy who had a hand in naming the cloud-native compute foundation, I’d like to weigh in!
Why do we call kubernetes cloud native? In what way is that native to the cloud? It seems more decoupled from the cloud since it uses only the most primitive abstractions. To me, the cloud is all about depending on other people for operations. Kubernetes is not that.

Getting a statistical sample that is P < 0.05 would be acceptable for publishing in Nature. On 330M, that’s 385 total samples. They do that every four days. To get to 99% and 1% MoE, that’s 16k, which they get twice a year.
