If I am asked to predict whether it will rain every day for a year, and every day I blindly predict 30% because on average it rains 30% of days in this location, am I correct? Maybe, but I’m not a very useful forecaster. What you should opt

In practice, what happens next when websites all start to block openai by default (or change their TOS to disallow OpenAI’s crawlers)? It seems like there’s little incentive not to do this, because unlike Google OpenAI isn’t bringing any tr
