we wouldn't stop but new users would simply get the content via ChatGPT and never even get into the mental model of going to a different webpage. They will start seeing Google/Bing with ChatGPT as their "app" and they us

This doesn't improve SQL for me at all. How exactly is this better than SQL? It still uses variables before they are even declared so the code flow is still all over the place. There still seems to be no real "coding" possibl

can they please ask whether it's silent? The major problem I have with refridgerators is that they are too loud and architects seem to have an obsession with designing single room apartments. It's getting harder and harder to find

the weird part for me is why I keep falling into that trap again and again. I like the work, I like the employer and I do good work and so I think that there is some kind of safety in that. I guess maybe it's a natural human impulse to

Google was not designed to give you accurate facts either, it was designed to calculate popularity of links based on backlinks and then show you the most referenced links first.

the thing is.. ChatGPT doesn't have to compete with perfectly correct information because the information you search for on Google is often wrong(=SEO spam) too and you have to sift through a lot of garbage or misleading links there to

Yes I know, but that's why the comment above was so bad. Claiming that "it's all rigged anyway" with no proof is not a useful way to add to a discussion. You can make such a comment on every single topic. Just claim it&#

I've long believed that about many consumer products like chocolate or candy. Why should it be allowed to sell and market this stuff to children when longterm damage is somewhat unknown or known to be quite bad. No, saying "everyt

life experience teaches me that if many people start to accept this, they'll start to push it on others via legislation. (see: vaccination. No talk of force until >50% was vaccinated, suddenly forcing on others became feasable and d

DDoS is really one of the most disgusting things on the current internet because there is legitimately no way to defend yourself except to have more money than the other guy. And even that might not help, you practically have to be Google o

Why do I have to tell you this when it should be instantly obvious: Tor is literally designed to obfuscate the identity of people. A coffee machine isn't.

There is nothing overclever about it, the tech is obviously being abused by criminals. The question around whether it's worth it to enable some "freedom of the press" is apparently enough to evoke some anger within you.

May I ask: That wasn't enough for you to stop operating a Tor node? People were abusing others thanks to your specific personal efforts and you just said: "eh, it's still worth it". How do you determine that it's st

honestly we should have had that for a long time. Being able to blacklist sites on Google is a feature we should have had for a long time precisely because it would even be in Google's interest to add such a feature. They can use it as

I agree that regulation will be useless because the politicians and most people wouldn't even be capable of detecting bad content as bad. I also agree with your second point: Humans will prefer robots. It turns out human beings are act

I think you are right, AI content will not be distinguishable from human content. What we really need to figure out is the direction that we are going as humanity. This planet must quickly become too small for us, human beings will not be n

I find the AI competition to be yet another powerful reminder that all that matters are results. I can't count how much time I've spent being angry at people in my life, even though I always knew that it was stupid. Angry at bad d

I assumed the ChatGPT3 enhancement is that they added memory of the dialogue to it? That's a huge improvement over one off questions and answers. You can tell it to correct its answers and ask follow up questions.

that is not true, the companies have an unlimited hiring pool today and the EU tells them to limit it to specific genders given some conditions. You can't remake reality just by rewording things. Your theory that all these companies ar

This is the kind of thing that can break entire economies: forcing you to hire people you don't want to hire, people who may be entirely unoptimal but you have to hire them anyway due to a quota. Of course the consequences will be too

I think so too and I think our entire society is absolutely drenched in this kind of self focused "love", "gratitude" and "kindness". I don't think people are even aware that they are not supposed to disto
