Since hubble said space is expanding, that means there will always be more room for entropy to increase. We will not have a heat death. Rather we are heading towards isolation and solitary confinement. I wonder if ET is behind this

How can chatGPT be used to do this? Did they ask it to just produce training data?

Humans will weaponize anything. If AI is trained on human data, it will most certainly extinguish us. How can we use the behavior of all animals to train AI? I’d rather have a smart dog (retriever?) to talk to than a human. I could trust it

Do any of you remember how healthcare was in the 60s before corporate America got involved? It just worked. The uninsured got taken care of. A 300 bed hospital had 3 administrators. Now we have a whole army of people in the hospital who hav

As a physician, my patients are continually stymied by the preauthorization requirement for CT scans and procedures by some insurors. This ridiculous hurdle adds weeks of delay sometimes. And there is no real quality assurance or data asses

Not using chatGPT to code is like not using antibiotics to treat infection. Sure, it can be done but why go back to the old ways? How many people know how to treat infections without antibiotics? How many people know how the antibiotics the
