I'm not a fan of the dome shaped LED bulbs like the one in the picture, maybe i just tried the wrong colour temperature, or it is something about how the light is distributed. Luckily there are LED fillament bulbs that are awfully simi

The escalation was Putin invading Ukraine. How are the US and NATO's actions escalating any further than that? Last i checked there was no Russian territory occupied by Ukrainian forces, let alone any hint of NATO involvement in achiev

Yup, an LLM should be a tool for the teacher to plan a lesson, not for kids to be let loose with. Or to attempt to replace human teachers.

Anyone who thinks an AI "teacher" is going to successful educate even the top 10% of students is insane. Maybe the top 5% in the class have enough outside support to make an AI teacher improve their grade. The rest will just laugh

Yes, this is the same for me. The things ChatGTP gets right are often the "common" situations. It's possible you aren't aware of these so surfacing these more "common" facts can be helpful. But ask it a questio
