i work in cost and pricing, and while i see the allure of AI helping out with it and I would love to be able to hand it over and work on other things, i feel like so much of this work involves things outside the sandbox. Take price fairness

The easiest way to break the mental barrier caused by short form content for me is to remind myself that knowing something is not the final product. The final product is trusting the knowledge and communicating that trust. Any information

i would place my money on the vast gap between effort and reward. you dont even need to think "if i swipe..." because the thought takes longer than the action. So why would you stop to consider what you might have to gain by swip

1 more perspective to add: while i did not know the NSA program was called prism, it did give me pause to find out in this thread. OpenAI surely knows what it was called, at least they should. So it begs the question of why. If they claim

I see short form content vids occasionally of people doing large ones. i wouldnt say no value to replaying it. the value is more of a catharsis akin to power washing or cleaning things up i think than it is out of puzzle-like interest. s

maybe that was too strongly worded but there was an expectation for zstd to outperform. So the fact it didnt means the result was unexpected. i generally find it helpful to understand why something performs better than expected.

Sociopaths genuinely reject that. What you’re feeling is the gap between modern knowledge and faith: our shared moral standards were historically upheld by religious authority in a radically different world, and in rejecting religion we oft

your ability to articulate yourself cleanly comes across in this post in a way that I feel AI is trying to be and never quite reaches as well. I completely agree that the ambitions of AI proponents to replace workers is insulting. You hit
