    WORLD'S LARGEST NUCLEAR REACTOR, CAPABLE OF PROVIDING UNLIMITED
    FOREVER ENERGY, IN MAKING (1 MINUTE READ) [8]

    The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) is a
    fusion reactor that may one day provide the Earth with unlimited
    energy. The project started in 2005. Fusion reactions occur when two
    small particles collide, forming a heavier atom and producing a
    significant amount of energy without creating radioactive waste. If
    successful, ITER will be arguably the most complex machine ever
    designed.

    I THINK WE CAN ALL AGREE THAT GPT-4 COMPLETES MANY TASKS AT
    HUMAN-LEVEL PROFICIENCY (2 MINUTE READ) [11]

    While GPT-4 is proficient in many tasks, it is also imperfect in odd
    ways. For example, it can speak all languages, but barely do math. As
    AI becomes more competent, the technology will have an increasingly
    large impact on the world. This post lists several ways AI could
    impact the world and asks some important questions about how these
    impacts will change the world. The areas affected by AI include
    markets, real estate, energy, data centers, nations, inflation, and geopolitics.

    We're still decades away from that. It takes an enormous amount of energy to start, and it's not self sustaining.

    I posted that more for our resident conspiracy theorists to get worked up about.

    I agree it sounds like it will be a pipe-dream for the rest of my lifetime.

    Hello Mike,

    FOREVER ENERGY, IN MAKING (1 MINUTE READ) [8]

    start, and it's not self sustaining.

    In the beginning ...

    God said, "Let there be light, and there was light."

    Sol (the Sun) is a huge fireball burning brightly in the sky.

    God saw that the light was good.

    God then separated the light from the darkness.

    God called the light "day" and the darkness he called "night"
    - without ever giving any explanation as to why.

    Evening came, and morning followed.

    The first day.

    Which came first - the chicken or the egg?

    For Life,
    Lee
