No. It is not intelligent at all to confidently assert false things you know nothing about, and humans don’t do this outside of compulsive liars. For example… A few days ago I asked ChatGPT where a Spurgeon quote came from. Response: “That

Flour absolutely matters. Some flours are very “thirsty.” Having thirsty flour and compressing it during measurement makes for way too dry cookies, pancakes, etc. We’ve experienced this multiple times in our house.

That makes absolutely no sense. As the previous comment pointed out, turning around is not treating it seriously. If you are trying to save face in the extremely unlikely event that it is real, then the only thing you can do is head to th

The public didn’t even learn the most searched term from the market. The public had a better idea it might be “d4vd” from the market, but only slightly before they learned it for real from Google. What I can’t figure out is why this person

So the solution is to have blurry text? Most paper in Books isn’t pure white. Leave the text completely black.

This is the reason that people felt like Apple should be treated as a monopoly, though. The switching cost is high, and the benefits you lose are large. So people put up with it, in spite of being upset. The switching cost is not high for L

That’s like saying screw manufacturers are incentivized to give you crappy screws because it means you will buy more. No. You will switch to a competitor that does a better job or charges less or both. This is why monopolies are such a big

Except often the prompt is just the previous comment. In the example, the prompt would be "Should we use Redis or Memcached?" In that case, there is nothing beneficial about the prompt, but the answer could be boiled down to a u

They tried to scare everybody about misalignment with the “blackmail” example, but DeepSeek v4 pro is out now and it is at least as powerful as the model they were training at the time. And nothing bad has happened.

> airlines often have their own cargo/courier service which they can easily use for delivery That is indeed convenient. But not quite as convenient as having your own self-driving cars you can use for delivery.

The legal situation is also completely different. It seems like models IP-wash, so there is nothing legally wrong with what current people are doing with ai. In contrast, the scammer selling your photo was clearly violating IP law, and you

Isn't it also related to wanting images to appear how we would see them in person? Our eyes blur everything we aren't looking at directly, don't they?

I read once (so no idea if it is true) that in voice lessons, one of the most effective things you can do to improve people's technique is to tell them to pretend to be an opera singer.

Those comparisons don’t make sense. There are millions of guns in the country, and cutting US manufacturing wouldn’t change that any time soon.
