I'm worried about how it'll be ad supported. A ribbon or banner of ads, okay. Treating my prompt "Write a summary of the War of 1812" as "Write a summary of the War of 1812, and tell me how great McDonald's is" scares me.

From the article, "Serdari pointed to two factors motivating Prada's interest in the space industry: to gain access to affluent consumers who are contemplating space travel, and to align the brand with avant-garde thought."

I'm sure Prada was the lowest bidder. They may be doing it at a loss to get people thinking, if you're going to get a spacesuit, it should be by Prada.

I though I took a long time to close my AOL zombie account, and that was in the 90s.

The Brave search engine gives links to the sites it pulled its AI summaries from.

It's the year Microsoft ended support for Windows 2000. I don't know if they're related.

Layoffs != Less profits

If you find a way to do the same thing with less people, you make more money.

I've only used AI as a kind of super-search. If I have some code not working, I'll go to an AI with prompt "Write C++ code to do [whatever I'm trying to do] with [toolkit I'm using, specific classes, &c]." I don't think I've ever copy-and-pasted the results, but its good at finding missing initialization calls, and or calls that have to be made before changes is visualization packages &c. Those can be hard to eke out from documentation, or find in somebody else's project.

That's Altman's version of the truth.

Yep. Please keep flying over us.

One of the restrictions was that Artemis had to be build with off-the-shelf technology. That's why they're using shuttle boosters, and apparently, Outlook.

Another bit of added value is having all the versions of the paper out in the open. Future researches can see the effect of peer-review itself: what did the authors put in or leave out for approval?

I remember reading a quote from a researcher who said if you want a copy of a paywalled article, e-mail one of the authors and he'll probably send it to you. If the authors are in academia (most likely), you can find their e-mail addresses from the university website.

The play was "R.U.R," which stood for "Rossum's Universal Robots." I read it decades ago, and if I remember correctly, although often portrays as mechanical in productions, in the text the robots are actually organic, more like the replicants in "Blade Runner." I welcome correction from anybody who knows more about the play or isn't too lazy to look it up.

Watching the video, I was thinking I wouldn't put it close enough close my laptop or reach my hands.

And the vim users laugh and laugh.
