We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.
Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Samizdata quote of the day – AI cracks mathematics puzzle edition “Mathematics will need to develop a research culture that can accommodate AI as a partner. This will involve journals that require verification, hiring and tenure arrangements that reward exposition and checking, and collaborative practices for the verification of proofs. Checking and explaining AI-generated mathematics must count as original intellectual labor. The stronger AI becomes, the more valuable this human expertise will be.”
– Daniel Kipnis, Wall Street Journal ($)

Who Are We? The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling.
We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

This is increasingly the recommended way to work with AI generally. Treat it like the office junior – give it work but don’t trust it. It needs an “adult in the room” to supervise it. And by “supervise”, we mean to be knowledgable to review its workings.
If an office junior’s errors were only uncovered in the boardroom the fault would lie with the supervisor, not the junior. So it is with AI at present.
This is increasingly the recommended way to work with AI generally. Treat it like the office junior – give it work but don’t trust it. It needs an “adult in the room” to supervise it. And by “supervise”, we mean to be knowledgable enough to review its workings.
If an office junior’s errors were only uncovered in the boardroom the fault would lie with the supervisor, not the junior. So it is with AI at present.
But, don’t worry. Once the Pope gets to supervise AI, the dangers and damages caused by the depraved HiTec Oligarchs will be prevented.
