   I wonder how much of ChatGPT's typical output you can find with some basic googling. For example, it feels like this answer was directly influenced by this or something similar: https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/to

   Aren't comments like this self fulfilling? The next version of GPT will include this text in its data set.

   I'm sorry to hear your experience wasn't great. It sounds like we're at a bit of an impasse, because our personal experiences vary. If you'd like a demonstration in my vehicle, let me know.

   I think this analogy doesn't hold water - horses aren't exactly a beacon of reliability (having owned one). I've already seen tools that support workflows where you compose art by iteratively generating a piece of it, perform

   Yep, and when one of the SEVs rolls around that would have been small (say 5m of downtime fixed with a flag flip), it instead will have a nontrivial chance of escalating into a major multi-hour/multi-day outage without the right instit

    Safe follow distance is usually measured in time, not distance. It's a function of human reaction time plus your vehicle's ability to brake, which is mostly a function of its velocity (also greatly affected by tires and weight but

    Have an upvote for the adaptive cruise control comment. It's this way on the Tesla, too - follow distance is described as car lengths, but it's actually speed-parameterized follow distances in reality. Personally, I find it somewh

    I'm really surprised I haven't heard this more often, because it seems like a given. AR glasses should be trying to offload as much work as they can to the supercomputers we carry around in our pockets. They have a much larger for

    True, I am relying on their statement. That said, my personal experience is that Netflix is generally still binge-able while every other streaming service is not. Maybe you and I are watching different content.

    Re: app issues, I've had HBO Max crash on me about 100x over the last year'ish - no exaggeration. This was across LG C1, Roku, PS4, Xbox Series X, and Android. It's improved substantially over the last couple of months, but i

    I don't understand what problems the Hyundai 74 is trying to solve. It has roughly the same stats as a long range model 3 for acceleration and range, but has to carry around both a fuel cell and a 60+ kwh battery (nearly as large as th

    To be fair, the model 3 is middle of the road in weight compared to all of the cars in its class, i.e. high performance sports sedan. This is quite commendable given the extra weight for a 75kwh battery pack and has lots of room for improve
