For those who dig, you will still find the data readily available (for most addresses, business addresses seem to be a bit different). https://firststreet.org/

Kim Jong-un says North Korea is the best nation in the world.

The fox guarding the hen house says the hen house is secure.

Vladimir Putin says Russia is performing a special military operation.

Benjamin Netanyahu says there isn't any genocide in Gaza.

I don't need a precog or an AI / ML algorithm to predict who is going to make an offensive social media post. It is obvious enough as is.

This made me chuckle. I remember a particular Recruit Division Commander in boot camp. I was proud of my work the first time I completed an assigned task properly. I reported the status to him. He came over, checked out the work, and said "Nice job! Congratulations! You've graduated from worthless.... to useless!" He then smiled and walked away. That was high praise in boot camp.

I wonder if OpenAI will defend their Chinese customer against copyright claims if they are the source of the claim. LOL. https://techcrunch.com/2023/11...

This seems to me the logical outcome of an _enforced_ "Corporations are people" type policy.

I see you are new to the government work environment.

Sounds like what they did with Amazon Prime Video and ads. They did this before, they will do it again.

This strikes me as the company pursuing the best course of action when they determined that it is not financially feasible to put in place enough protections to prevent this kind of activity on their systems. So... instead of protecting against it, they allow it and make money from it. I'm sure there is nuance here, but this smells like PR spin on a business decision to me.

I hear you on the sales growth math. If I had to guess, I'd say that this was probably likely to people waiting for the new EV tax credit rules to kick in. Knocking several thousand off the purchase price makes a big difference, also in the amount of interest paid.

For what it's worth, you can subscribe to F1TV for around $11/month or around $85/year. It is more expensive than the ESPN+ subscription (depending on how you get it), but you get access to some features ESPN+ can't give you. I had the F1TV subscription for years and liked to have my laptop screen showing the lap times, laps on current tire, when the last pit was, and some other data. You could also get the in-car radio for each driver. It's a way to get out of the ESPN+ subscription and you get a lot more data, but if all you want is the race, then ESPN+ is kind of hard to beat. Especially if it's bundled with the other Disney+/Hulu junk. This is the first year I'm going back to ESPN+ (as now I have the Disney+ sub), but I'll go back to F1TV for sure if the cabal above releases their streaming bundles together at an outrageous price point... or with ads. In the end, this is a math equation. I just hope they don't drop broadcast TV for events too in order to help drive subscriptions. I installed a TV antenna last year, and I get just enough of the other one-off sports games I watch on it that I don't have to subscribe for a month to to watch an occasional event like the Army Navy football game, Daytona 500, or the super bowl.

+1. It is like reporting "People go over the speed limit on the Interstate" at this point.

This, right here. I was a college level instructor for about a decade. I'm not an English major, far from it. But the low quality of papers coming from college students made me really begin to think about everything from our education system to the ability to communicate without looking like an idiot. I'm not a fan of marketing but at least _most_ marketing materials are coherent and well written. Yes yes, there are always exceptions, but damn. However, using AI to answer questions certainly increases the quality of writing but it includes content that wasn't generated by the user and that is not what those questions were about.

I bet the AI has better quality microphones than the employees at the location they used for testing had. There is your 22 seconds right there.

I often wonder why we had better microphone and speaker technology during the moon landings than is available today at the average drive through.

I just went through the same thing. I even gave Comcast/Xfinity a chance to lower the bill to stay competitive. I told them my primary concern was cost, so somehow through marketing mathematics they decided the best deal they could offer to keep me was to double my speed for a bill that came up about $7 more a month in totality. I asked the customer service representative how Comcast thought that X was less than X+7. After a few seconds of silence, they recognized I wasn't going to speak again until they answered, so they just said "This is the best offer we are able to give you." So, in about 2 weeks, I get fiber to my house, much faster, for LESS THAN 50% THE COST and Comcast/Xfinity will not only lose an Internet subscriber, but a mobile subscriber too. I never did buy into the cableTV* side of things, so I won't be a statistic there. * One of their favorite tricks is to say "The CableTV & Internet bundle is the same cost" but it isn't. Once you add in CableTV they tack on a bunch of fees and service charges that don't normally come with an Internet only connection. So yeah, the advertised price is the same, but the total bill is always around $5-$10 more. I'm not sad I'm leaving. But it might help them to learn some basic mathematics. It does appear as though they figured out that less subscribers is a bad thing, but squeezing the ones you have left isn't a viable long-term plan either. Sooner or later someone will lure your customers away from you.
