GPT-5 still has a terrible personality. "Yeah -- some bullshit " still feels like trash as the presentation is of a friendly person rather than an unthinking machine, which it is. The false presentation of humanness is a huge pro

The null hypothesis is that Apple chips aren't better. You simply assumed they were into evidence. It's up to you to provide the figures that they are. Of course, they really aren't, which is pretty obvious. It doesn't m

No, that's incorrect, Ashkenazi Jews are widely considered European. The only people who disagree are people engaging in a settler colonial political project, which is geopolitics, not fact.
