I've replaced almost all my usage of Google Search with ChatGPT. The only reason's I've had to use Google search is to look up current news, and do some fact checking. In my experience, GPT-4 rarely provides incorrect results

Google makes almost all its money from search. These platforms are all there to reinforce its search monopoly. ChatGPT has obsoleted search. ChatGPT will do to Google search what the Internet did to public libraries - make them mostly irrel

This cost argument is being overblown. While it's a limitation for today's product, enginners are very good at optimization. Therefore the costs will drop in the medium to long term from efforts on both the software and hardware s

Each of those bank failures taken individually did not cause the other banks to fail. They each failed due to their own issues in isolation. Thus it may be incorrect to say that there is a contagion.

Bazel does not assume statically built. Where do you get this idea?

ChatGPT harkens back to the playful and exploratory experience jumping on the early Internet of the 1990s. They have something great, and I just sincerely hope they find a monetization scheme that does not devolve into the pile of degenerat
