Or, you simply edit the text the LLM generated ruining the hidden message. That's not even remotely fraud. There are legitimate reasons to edit text. There are fewer legit reasons to bash off someone else's lock with a hammer.

I only use FB for the occasional Marketplace sale/purchase because the rest of the site is a cesspool of nonsense and toxic ragebait. It's impossible to only see your friends updates now, so it's lost 99% of it's utility

Absolutely. Across the board I reject that. Knowledge work is still work, knowledge is power. Those who can use knowledge are powerful. For over a decade I've helped transform healthcare businesses into stable, profitable companies tha

I never said rationing does anything else except spread around inventory to many customers.

> The alternative is to have shortages. This is a myth. The volume of inventory remains the same regardless of the price. When demand is higher than supply you have shortages regardless of price simply because you have unmet demand. If y

Agreed. I love that. I'm where I am because of billions of humans before me cutting paths. Its why I like building for the next generation.

That's because people like me were doing that and writing about it 20+ years ago. Everything from Claude comes from human minds.

I'm not, I'm anthropomorphizing people.

The flaw in the analogy is that oracle is made of people. It's not a lawnmower, it's a group of people with human motivations and human thoughts. It's true they don't HATE people, but it's also true they absolutely

Billionaries like Kevin O'Leary and his ilk are behind those rumors because they want to discredit the local resistance. There's one activist in Utah, Caroline Gleich, has been exceptionally outspoken against O'Leary and he&#
