Those chat logs will become the most valuable data in the world. That or sex chats will become totally shameless and normalized.

I don’t think it needs to be about art or passion. I just don’t think someone who relies entirely on AI generated text can accurately call themselves “a writer.”

The sentence structure is too consistent across the whole piece, like they all have the same number of syllables, almost none start with a subject, and they are all very short. It is robotic in its consistency. Even if it’s not AI, it’s bad

I guess it depends on where you’re going but AirBnB surpassed hotel rates for my travels (mostly to major cities) back around 2017 or 2018. I haven’t used it since.

Government grants are competitive, not gifts. MIT competes (along with private companies and individuals) for grants and if the grant is won, a very lengthy and detailed contract is signed that outlines the terms of the grant. This isn’t fr

This seems dangerous to me. Children have incredible imaginations and easily form bonds with obviously inanimate objects. A toy that seems to be alive could in fact lead a very young child to believe that it’s alive. As a parent, I find tha

They are very quick to refund/replace and I wonder if it’s because they have no way to track an item’s origin to a specific seller so they just treat the refund as a small cost in an otherwise very profitable system for them.

I agree that we shouldn’t pile on and assume the worst. However, multiple comments have asked what Slack will do to ensure this doesn’t happen again, which is important pressure to put on the corporation so that they can show (and not just
