Is there any indication they are actually working on this and Altman is any good at pursuing this goal? I'm seriously asking, please inform the uninformed. My impression is that I hear a lot more about basic research from the competing

Believe me that there's at least two dozen computers doing their thing in your "mostly analog" Fiesta. Consumers tend to heavily underestimate the point in time from which cars started absolutely relying on modern electronics

It's really not particularly anti-China imho, as indeed the West has its own brand of this in American Exceptionalism in general. We from smaller countries sometimes call this Big Country Syndrome. It's true that China has a lot o

It's 45 years old and the author is deceased. I assume you would be untroubled by a link to a copy of Macbeth . Where do you draw the line?

I did do that now, and I see a string of similar consultant-like training/course packages. It's a bit like when Deloitte comes by to pitch. What have they built that impressed you?

To be fair, according to OpenAI they started ChatGPT as a demo/experiment and were taken by surprise when it went viral. It may well be that they also didn't have a product culture as an organization, but were willing to experimen

It may be true that youth confers certain physical and mental benefits, but I feel it's generally under-appreciated what a massive amount of value older people can still easily bring to society around them. I grew up as a young 20-ish

Absolutely. This kind of list isn't the price to entry. Toward the middle of your career you should have a reasonable understanding of roughly what's in all of those and why someone cared to write them down, and be able to know wh
