Did... someone make a bot to try to post a summary to HN with an LLM that also completely fails at being accurate (which is incredibly fitting given what the topic here is)

I got so angry that I turned off RCS on my iPhone after I was somewhere with limited service, I was sending messages and they were being seriously delayed. Friends were trying to reach me and the same was happening. I finally broke down and

I mean, that is kinda exactly what I said.. But we do have to acknowledge that AI is very much turned into an all encompassing term of everything ML. It is getting harder and harder to read an article about something being done with "A

Yes and no and this is the problem with the current marketing around AI. I very much do want what used to be just called ML that was invisible and actually beneficial. Autocorrect, smart touch screen keyboards, music recommendations, etc.

I feel like I am missing something here, and it is around it being called "hemp". Does this actually have any impact on legal dispensaries, their products, farms, etc? Does this make it harder to eventually de-schedule pot.

Very very few people actually fundamentally disagree with the core idea of identification to vote. The problem is the act of getting the ID itself. In most (all?) states getting an ID is not free, takes time, and if you lost everything will

This screams just as genuine as Google saying anything about Privacy. Both companies are clearly wrong here. There is a small part of me that kinda wants openai to loose this, just so maybe it will be a wake up call to people putting in w

Is there an article that has the US pricing anywhere? It doesn't look like any of these are on the US site yet so I am curious what these will actually cost. I keep hoping that Ikea would come up with something that can go over a switc

I honestly thought the same and kind of just gave up the idea of hitting that at night and being done. Figured having 4 OS installations was already fairly niche that it was largely a self imposed issue. Looking forward to confirming that t

By that logic I don't understand why you don't just drink raw sewage instead of waiting for it to be processed and made safe. The act of making cheese is processing the raw milk. Fun fact Pasteurized milk was also once raw. Same

At the end of the day competition for SpaceX is a good thing so we don't become reliant on a single company and the whims of the person that owns it. I don't know enough about whether or not they really are behind or if this is ju

It solved “a” problem buy not “the” problem. It depends on what the goal of all of this was, which is unclear. If the goal was simply to get the data that they originally wanted it does not solve that problem and it would have just happened

To me that sounds like security by obscurity not actual security. If you have the ability to go through the reset flow than then why is that much different than the username and password being available to a limited sets of users. That woul

Is it bad that I am more surprised that this is a third party tool and not something that google is developing internally? That sure seems like a gold mine of information for them to consume.

I have lost count of how many jobs train me specifically to look at the URL's in emails by hovering over them to confirm that it is legitimate. And then put fucking mimecast infront of everything so I legit can't do what they are

Nearly everything about this screams I, Robot and it is kinda wild that they went that route with this article. The package delivery and the quick intro and head turning in particular. I agree on the data part. I love the potential idea of

I have no doubt that most of the blame here is on drivers. Way too often I see cars running red lights, barely paying attention, turning the wrong way on a one way, etc etc. That being said, (and to be clear I say this as someone that does

Looking at Bioware's history they are also an interesting company. It does seem like they tried to avoid just becoming the "Mass Effect and Dragon Age" developer but that did not really work that well for them. Maybe that tur
