   Absolutely no enduser knows what 'GPT' stands for and if you tell them it's Generative Pre-trained Transformer they're even more confused than before. There's better brand names out there.

   Most 'diplomats' of the new USA are just grifters like Witkoff or Kushner. Real estate people cosplaying diplomats. The US as the world has known it is gone https://apnews.com/article/france-us-ambassador-kush

   Pinterest is such a fascinating product. I've tried to use it a few times over the many years the product has been out. Never ever saw a point of sticking around. Constantly getting annoyed at some Google search pinterest links and tha

    How do you know it's completely arrested? Best these type of drugs can do is give you a few months extra window (say 4-6 months). They're not a cure. Sadly.

    I loved that 99 out of 100 times when I saw a sign of "Luxury Apartments" in the Bay Area they were old run down shit holes. Turns out actual luxury apartments don't have to write it on a sign.

    I am running HarmonyOS on my watch (moved from Apple Watch to Huawei GT-6 41mm) now. Turns out it doesn't matter as third party apps on watches generally suck anyway (low functionality, mostly just companions to iOS/Android app, b

    And American software shouldn't be bought by foreign entities/customers anymore. Because why would we? Just make it only by Americans and sell it only to Americans and see how that goes.

    No no you see... when Google or Amazon or Meta et al are doing it it's a-okay. But let's ban Huawei or DJI on 'National Security' grounds because they MIGHT be doing this too!

    Investors still pretend AI is a winner-takes all. The one magic model that will rule all the others forever and ever and gain all the marketshare. In reality LLMs have proven to be a commodity. Today OpenAI is ahead, tomorrow Anthropic, the

    What does tripling actually mean in this context? E.g. If you cut hiring from say 1,000 a year to 10 and now are 'tripling' it to 30 then that's still a nothingburger.

    Is this some kind of joke? Do you Americans really think this is okay? Bribing presidents and influencing future elections with multi millions of dollars? What does this all still have to do with Making the World a Better Place and all that

    The S&P 500 rose 1.04% in EUR terms only. That's basically nothing. Of the 14% in USD terms 13% evaporated because he crashed the dollar compared to all other currencies (EUR, GBP, CHF, AUD, whatever)

    Problem is you can easily train one model on the other. And at the end of the day everyone has access to enough data in one way or another.

    And the whole AI craze is becoming nothing but a commodity business where all kinds of models are popping in and out, one better this update, the other better the next update etc. In short - they're basically indistinguishable for the
