I agree that the Vision is half baked right now, but the point is they aren't seeking to compete with the VR headsets or market today. Unlike other VR headsets, Apple seeks to augment, eg your home office by replacing your TV, laptop,

Your reading comprehension seems to be as good as that of the lawyer here. You asked what this says about the claim that GPT-4 was good enough to pass the bar. I didn't say anything about GPT-4's quality or the legality here, only

Apple isn't there right now, but the ultimate goal appears to replace computers, phones, and monitors, which is why Vision has a laptop card and operates independently. It's not born of the same concept as eg, a Meta quest which i

The lawyer here was probably not smart enough to distinguish between 3.5 and 4. Haven't seen anything to indicate this was the output of GPT-4

A large GPT-4 generated text like this showcases its repetitiveness well. If you actually read the novel, you’ll see the same recurring features: 4-5 line paragraphs, paragraphs starting with either “as” or the name of a character” etc.

40 years is nothing. So if you father was assaulted, your mother was harassed, your son was killed, or your daughter was raped, you’d forgive and forget in your lifetime? Every Sikh knows someone that suffered unimaginably and the Indian st

The Wikipedia article is biased and naively relies on Indian state media. Singh is not a terrorist which is an easy call since he’s never committed any acts of terrorism. He’s a preacher and most of his sermons are the sort of benign stuff
