The 1980s was almost 50 years ago, and history continues to move. 50 years before the 1980s, during the Great Depression, the narrative was the opposite. The Soviet Union was invincible with a growing economy while every capitalist country

This claim can only be true if LLMs have completely mastered all intellectual aspects of creating and shipping software. That's so far from being true it's like saying that humans are currently an interplanetary, post-scarcity spe

And? Other people's immorality does not excuse one's own. Other people kill and steal, that doesn't mean that I should do it anyway because other people are going to whether I do or not. That just makes the world, and me, wor
