Here's a skeptical take of o3 from a professional mathematician https://xenaproject.wordpress.com/2024/12/22/can-ai-do-maths-yet-thoughts-from-a-mathematician/

Do anyone know about a good source for the impact of factory farming on climate? Something like this post, concise yet comprehensive.

Thanks for listening. LLM indeed makes things up. 😃

Thanks. I have translated two sections to Chinese here: https://dku-plant-futures.github.io/zh/post/factory-farming-as-a-pressing-global-problem/

Can I translate this to Chinese and publish it on my website? https://dku-plant-futures.github.io/

Made a NotebookLM podcast https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/de9ec521-56b3-458f-a261-2294e099e08c/audi for this.

I work at a university in China, and with the help of some vegetarian students, I’ve been trying to encourage others to eat less meat. However, I’ve found it challenging to engage students who aren’t already interested in vegetarianism.

For instance, last semester, I organized a Meatless Monday Lunch every week. The same group of people I already knew would attend, but it didn’t attract new participants. I even offered free lunches to students to make it more appealing, but that didn’t seem to help.

I also hosted a documentary screening about the health effects of eating meat. Attendance was very low—fewer than 10 people showed up—and most of them seemed distracted, spending their time on their phones.

On the bright side, our canteen has improved its plant-based options with our help. I think this may encourage more people to try them. Unfortunately, I don’t have access to the canteen’s data, so I’m not sure if this idea actually worked. Personally it did make eating at the canteen a bit more pleasant.

I teach math to mostly Computer Science students at a Chinese university. From my casual conversations with them, I've noticed that many seem to be technology optimists, reflecting what I perceive as the general attitude of society here.

Once, I introduced the topic of AI risk (as a joking topic in a class) and referred to a study (possibly this one: AI Existential Risk Survey) that suggests a significant portion of AI experts are concerned about potential existential risks. The students' immediate reaction was to challenge the study's methodology.

This response might stem from the optimism fostered by decades of rapid technological development in China, where people have become accustomed to technology making things "better."

Was it a mistake to start an organization like openai? People with good intentions creates a beast which they cannot uncreate. I had same feeling after watching Oppenheimer.
