Yeah I kinda stopped reading there. The author’s pov seem quite skewed by a few experiences and making the wrong correlations

What is the deal with the image of the article ? Mosques are as empty in Iran as churches are empty in the west. Yes the government is tightly coupled with religion, but this image isn’t representative of Iran at all.

Right? That drives me crazy. It only does that for me in the voice mode. And in cases I ask it to elaborate, it ignores my request and repeats the system instructions from my preferences “ok, I’ll keep it concise” and gives a 5 word answer

I’m surprised there’s no mention of creativity and outside the box thinking. Listening to this podcast I was wondering if we could train the LLM with knowledge cutoff right before transformers, and ask it to come up with an ML method for LL

I agree with the general sentiment. I also think we forgot how to enjoy quality time together and these “solutions” will make matters worse. But in some scenarios, like what I described, which is just spending time together, it can help

This is the first feature which makes me kind of excited for VR. I live away from my country and my parents for over 20 years and I’d love to be able to sit in my parents’ living room, or have them sit in mine and share a moment together. F

When importing the passwords into a new devices you’re required to enter the device password of whatever device created the password initially. Still no proof that there’s no back door, but as far as the system on the surface goes, it does

the screenshots from Samsung look like a high school project compared to the iPhone ones. Granted, Samsung is in a much better place now compared to back then.

I tried math academy for this exact purpose, but I had to give up because it didn't let me test out of lessons that I was already good at (Similar to how duolingo would allow you to do). So I ended up wasting a lot of time sitting thro
