Seconds? Hell I been gooning to this story for hours
Less energy efficient

I would be willing to bet that if you take a random survey of people who read above vs below grade level, the former group enjoys life more, has more options, and winds up living longer
And that Canada was not on fire
And that USA still had science & was treating the climate emergency like an emergency

Stop repeating corpo criti-hype
I pointed out that I am posting a short simple statement backed up by hundreds of impressive people, including over a dozen Nobel Laureates.
Your response:
the signers that are the problem (though the NYT is more than happy to platform the worst people)
So I listed their names and asked for how, specifically, these are the "worst people".
How do you come to that conclusion? Is it by virtue of the fact that they have Nobel prizes? Or because they signed the statement? If the latter, which, at least, of the 3 points do you disagree with, and why?
Are you this reflexively contrarian with everyone, or just me personally? Just curious
You have an axe to grind, more like a religious tenet than an honest fact-based opinion.
Tell me, of the 16 Nobel laureates in Economics the list, who got their prizes over the last 20 years, on issues from the effects of institutions to markets, policy, dynamics, development economics, and behavioral dynamics ... which exactly are the "worst people", and why, specifically?
EDIT: make your job easier, here are their names. The scoundrels!

It's the New York Times. I'm not claiming they're without bias, but come on man
Have you actually read their statement? It's rather short. https://www.wemustactnow.ai/
AI may become radically more powerful over the next 10 years.
This could drive an unprecedented transformation of our economy, larger than the Industrial Revolution, but unfolding over a vastly shorter time frame. It could bring risks, including large-scale job displacement, as well as opportunities such as major gains in living standards.
Economists, policymakers and technology leaders must act now to understand the economics of transformative AI and to build the incentives, guardrails, and institutions needed to steer AI in a direction that complements humans and benefits society.
The statement, titled “We Must Act Now,” was signed by nearly 200 people, including 15 Nobel laureates and the chief economists of two of the leading A.I. labs, Open AI and Anthropic. Other notable signatories include Jack Clark, a co-founder of Anthropic; Eric Schmidt, the former chief executive of Google; and Vinod Khosla, a prominent venture capitalist.
my bad, 10 should have been 2025
