Many of the futuristic items I read on manga(especially Doraemon) back in the day I was a child became a reality.
- ProllyInfamous 2y agoMy mother — daughter of a literal NASA rocket engineer — lost her father around c~2000. She said to me c~2012 "I sure wish my father had lived long enough to see the iPhone's invention: watching scifis he'd tell me I'd live long enough to see telecommunicators even more capable than these movie-props." This mother died six months before ChatGPT's debut, and I thought "sure wish Mom had lived long enough to see LLMs." It wasn't until her first anniversary, flipping through some of our letters, that I realized she had tasted GPT-2 while we played around with ThisWordDoesNotExist.com (made-up words & their "definitions"). Maybe I'll live long enough to see telecommunicators even more capable than these pretrained-transformers.
