   If that's the only thing they're dishonest about, sure. They've got a family to feed and they do what they have to do.

   I can't listen to this because the host sounds like a text to speech engine.

   Why do we pretend we know anything about these things? Didn't we just hear about some amazing scientific breakthrough where researchers think they found a neuron in ChatGPT responsible for knowing when to predict the word "an&quot

   Since we can't predict what's going to happen, is there a chance GPT and similar models are reaching diminishing returns, and we'll just see further refinements but no huge leaps?

   Not sure what this thing is doing. Sounds a lot like that infinite Seinfeld AI show.

   I agree that the browser was revolutionary - but it was only really useable at home, on my wifi. The 2.5G wireless hobbled it so badly I never used it for anything more than basic info lookups. Web apps were just too painful to use and I co

    This is wrong. I waited in line for mine. It was quite clearly a toy. It was a cool but barely usable tech demo and it was completely outclassed in features and usefulness by contemporary devices like the Motorola Q. It showed the way forwa

    I don’t understand what this article is trying to say at all. Why did it bring Ventura into it?

    Another random fairly unknown thing about COBRA - it only exists as long as the group exists. If your company goes out of business and its group plan is dissolved, COBRA goes poof . I learned this because it almost happened to me. I learne

    Why do illegal moves forfeit? In online play, they're validated. You can't make illegal moves. What's the ELO score if ChatGPT is corrected, and chooses a new move?

    Passing the LSAT is a fairly good indicator that a human can be a lawyer. It's not yet a good indicator that a large language model can be a lawyer.

    "Death panels" sounded absurd in 2009, especially given who is most famous for introducing us the term. In 2023, when I look at Canada's ever expanding MAiD programs, it doesn't seem as absurd. If you're a governmen

    What kind of effort does it take to have any idea what you guys are talking about? Is there a For Dummies book?

    I had never even heard of the Silicon Valley Bank. It sounds fake. Is this really a contagion risk?

    This could be an interesting way to measure your true basal metabolic rate. A bathtub, an Arduino and some temperature sensors would get you a number much better than one of those online calculators.

    I wouldn't murder them. I wouldn't report them to the police because they likely wouldn't even come out. The flip side to that coin is that the police also won't come out to investigate a little rough play. If I let the

    I don't know if this is serious or not. Maybe it's a Bay Area thing? People getting very used to having their windows smashed and such without any recourse? But 'round these parts, people don't just stand around watching

    I live in a high property tax county in Illinois, and 70% of my taxes go to the schools. More than half of that 70% pays for teacher's pensions.
