People are upset about the deceptive misuse of the trademark. Rightfully so, it’s deceptive and misleading, legal issues aside.

That’s the game plan for the AI companies: once companies have massive codebases of critical AI generated code and a skeleton crew of prompt engineers they’re going to be locked in to the AI product to develop anything new. They’re not even

No. Being nice to people such that they want to like you (of their own free will) is not manipulative. Being nice so that people might like you is not manipulative. It’s pointing out that if you’re nice to other people, then other people

How is he squatting the trademark when it’s actively being used? Not releasing a version for some platform doesn’t make it squatting in the slightest. The port just can’t use the trademark. Call it something else.

Gambling addicts will really gamble on anything, won’t they? It’s a bit strange to see degenerate gambling dressed up as “predictions”.

For me it’s that as soon as I intend to begin a task, I start thinking about every step, and everything that might go wrong at every step, and planning contingencies for every hypothetical problem, and on and on. So suddenly the task seems

But what do they do ? I’ve only ever seen them performing choreographed routines or running races. I’ve yet to see one doing something useful, so if you know of an example, I’d love to see it.

The game is to name a larger number. Is infinity a number? Some would say, “no”. Eventually, one of the kids will name a largest number, because no one else will name another and the game ends with a largest number. It is possible that alie

If your goal is to reproduce it you could just make a cast of the fan and then use that to make a mold. It’d be a bit tricky since you wouldn’t really have a convenient spot for a planar parting line, but should be possible.

I’m pretty certain a finite number of pre-schoolers can only recite a finite number of numbers. Yes, they could on indefinitely, but will they ever?

Sounds like something used by phishing awareness training. If so, then presumably it didn’t work anymore because they ended that or use a different one.

Because the existing cultural understanding of art is that someone took the time to create what you’re experiencing. AI generated “art” subverts that expectation. It feels deceptive. Honestly it reminds of Duchamp’s Fountain and similar w

Put differently: you get good at what you actually do, not what you think you're doing. If you're not coding anymore, but using AI tools, you're developing skills in using those AI tools, and your code abilities will atrophy

I find it humorous that the LLM's "confession" reads like an ascerbic comment you would find here on HN lambasting someone for accidentally deleting their production database, but re-written in the first person.
