Google plans to introduce a number =

competition, regulatory hurdles, and advancements in AI. C=
EO Sundar
Pichai has warned employees that 2025 will be a challenging yea=

the company is facing scrutiny across the world. While Google's sear=

OpenAI will create a public benefit corporation to oversee c=

operations when it moves towards a for-profit structure in 2025=
. The
public benefit corporation will remove some of OpenAI's nonprofit=

restrictions and allow it to function more like a high-growth startup.=

The scale of capital that the company needs requires conventional

Humans think at a rate of 10 bits per second. Our bodie=
s' sensory
systems gather environmental data at a rate of a billion bits =
per
second, 100 million times faster than our thought processes. It is
=
unknown why humans are only able to think a single thought at a time
rath=
er than many at a time in parallel the way our sensory systems
work. One =
theory is that the brain was first evolved for navigation -
it would make=
sense that we can only follow one 'path' of thought at a
time if our bra=

China's Chang'e 6 mission

PROGRAMMING, DESIGN & DATA SCIENCE

SOFTWARE DESIGN IS KNOWLEDGE BUILDING (11 MINUTE READ) [8]=20

Softw=
are designers usually have a simple concept in mind when writing
programs=
- understanding this concept allows them to find sections of
programs th=

Changes made b=
y people who don't understand the original design
concept almost always c=
ause the structure of the program to degrade.
The changes will be inconsi=
stent or invalidate the original concept.
After many such changes, nobody=
will understand the modified product.
Software that has been repeatedly =
modified in this way becomes very
expensive to update.=20

doing so via promotions=
requires you to be known and valued by your
organization. Companies valu=

that the company cares about and d=
on't spend time on pet projects.
Don't worry too much about mentoring and=
leading, as long as you're
leading projects successfully, or if doing so=
delivers value for the
company. Getting to staff manager requires a lot =
of work from your
manager - don't invest time in the promo packet until t=

the possible futu=

that produces something of value. Capital goods
are things that are used=
in the production of goods and services.
Capital can refer to both the s=
tock of capital goods and the money
that can pay for them. AI will make c=
apital a more general substitute
for labor. There will be less need to pa=

replace that with capital - data centers run=

e concept in mind when writing programs - understanding this concept allows=
them to find sections of programs that must be altered when an update or c=

de. The changes will be inconsistent or invalidate the original concept. Af=

                                   It's probably easier to get to staff en=
gineer by getting hired as doing so via promotions requires you to be known=

ts. Don't worry too much about mentoring and leading, as long as you're lea=
ding projects successfully, or if doing so delivers value for the company. =

nvest time in the promo packet until they're fully on board.

                                   This article talks about the implicatio=
ns of labor-replacing AI and the possible future that we might be facing. L=
abor is the human mental and physical effort that produces something of val=
ue. Capital goods are things that are used in the production of goods and s=
ervices. Capital can refer to both the stock of capital goods and the money=
that can pay for them. AI will make capital a more general substitute for =
labor. There will be less need to pay humans for work as you can replace th=
at with capital - data centers running software.
