The effect is that the US loses its competitive edge in international markets. Is another country going to buy Tesla or BYD? Are they going to buy a DJI or an overpriced US drone? It might protect companies locally but for how long?

How did we not have this 10-15 years ago? It just feels like not enough people work on, or care enough about assistive tech till it impacts them personally.

Even if you could, the problem is that these documents are first chunked into smaller pages, and then embeddings are created. When you ask a question, the algo searches for relevant chunks and passes them to the LLM's overall prompt. I

You would be surprised how controversial this is. Try saying all civilians should be protected, or should have equal rights. The racist will come and tell you how one side is more important than the other to have the same rights to life, di
