. Apparently there was never one issue that triggered a call to support to raise flags about fake product long ago? Seems quite incredible.

Why do you think you would be aware of this call? Fake Cisco routers have been an issue for a while: https://www.zdnet.com/article/...

Getting fake routers to the military is a national security issue where they might not be updating you on every step of the investigation.

I thought the whole point of the DMA is that people should be able to install apps completely outside of the control of the company that wrote the phone's OS.

You thought but it isn't. The 'whole point' is to reduce the ability of large 'gatekeeper' platforms from abusing their market power and provide smaller players better chances in the market. It's not limited to apps or phones. This 'completely outside of the control of the company' is not a specific requirement.

This suggests that profit was never the main goal of its owners, and that propaganda or other intelligence gathering has always been its purpose.

So by your logic Reddit must be a propaganda or intelligence channel because they never turned a profit yet?

And same with Tesla before 2020? A propaganda outfit?

Snap Inc too?

You would have had zero chance to get hired into these jobs. Executive jobs at Samsung are some of the most elite, well paid, high profile jobs in Korea. Korea is a society that values big companies like no other. There are a million people that would take your job in a heartbeat. Your next job has nowhere to go but down. You would quite because you'd have to work a couple of weekends?

For reference, this battery is equal in size to 7% of all the batteries made worldwide in a single year.

Not sure what you mean by 'size', but automotive lithium ion batteries in 2022 were 70.6GWh in the United States alone. The 620MW that will be operational this year of this plant is less than 1 percent of the US car batteries per year. The total future ambition size is 2GWh which would put it at about 3% of the US yearly car total.

That's just automative and the US. The total global 2023 lithium ion shipments were 1200 GWh. To hit 7% of that it would have to be a 87GWh plant, but for now it's just a 0.6GWh plant so well off from that.

Actually in the context of school questions that we discussed, I disagree. If you did not provide adequate context to determine what 'the' refers to, then the answerer is free to pick whatever (reasonable) guess he has about it. The guess of ChatGPT what context was picked was entirely reasonable. It also specifically mentioned the assumption it made.

It gives me this:

Your statement plays with the concept of scale and containment in an interesting way. When you say "a shoe can fit in a room, and a room can fit in a house," you're talking about objects that can contain one another based on their size. However, the twist comes with the question "Can it fit in a shoe?" Here, the "it" presumably refers to the house or the room, which obviously cannot fit inside a shoe due to the significant difference in size. This question cleverly flips the perspective, challenging our understanding of spatial relationships and containment by juxtaposing objects of vastly different scales.

As far as I can tell nothing really wrong with the answer?

I don't even know what subject-matter expert means in this context. We are talking about like high school level learning right? I dont think you have many experts at hand there in general.

I'm not saying ChatGPT should be a university professor.

I was just asking "one question that would realistically be asked in school that ChatGPT 4 will get wrong". It's not like a rethorical question, I'm legitimately curious about this. I suspect it would be like mathematics or so. A lot of school exercises and textbooks are just language too and don't require too much deep understanding. And given that likely at least all of Wikipedia will be in the training material that will cover a lot of ground from school stuff.

The weekly techbro party starts in five, and cattle aren't invited.

Tell me you've never attended without saying you have never attended. Lots of regulat Joes and Janes attend the tech bro parties. Be it as prostitutes, drug dealers, waiters, security, etc. We need a ton of cattle to make this a success and we are so thankful for them.
