You didn't seem to be smart enough to understand that you have made the mistake of arguing in favor of my point in your attempt to argue against it.

Today I read your comment. If it wasn't proof that being human doesn't make you intelligent then I don't know what is.

OpenAI is quite literally joining Anthropic in the call for caution, so you should probably learn a long overdue lesson: Knowing how to find the Slashdot URL doesn't make you an expert.

You might want to watch the Black Hat presentation and actually educate yourself before trying to tell us "what they did." Hint: You have no idea what you are talking about.

Don't try to confuse these people with facts. They already "know" that only humans can do it, AI and an LLM are the same thing, and AI isn't human, so AI can't do it. Any factual evidence that shows that AI definitely does it is marketing. Anyone who says that AI and LLM are not interchangeable terms is easily fooled by "token predictors", and most importantly ONLY GOD CAN GIVE THE GIFT OF INTELLIGENCE, LIKE HE DID 6000 YEARS AGO!

Mark Twain once quipped:

Tremendous, now, after spending billions of dollars, CA finally has a power grid that can stay online year-round without forced "rolling blackouts".

We're all very proud of you finally building a grid that can handle your needs.

Exactly. It's a field they are told to fill in, but don't care.

Don't be so stupid. Don't confuse what officers put in an unrequited field on a form with actual, legal reason.

The field, based on the summery was not required to be filled-in since many users left the field blank and still their search happened.

No one is contending that the "reason" an officer performed a search was because "haha", the officer (obviously) didn't care to type anything meaningful in the (unrequired) field. If your complaint is that nonsense was entered into an unrequired, unverified field on a form, it's a very weak argument/small problem.

NYC only has so many taxis, and the easiest place to pickup rides and keep busy is to operate in Manhattan, not in the Bronx or Queens...

A city may or may not have actual, high-value medallions, but I bet most cities of any significant size has a taxi commission and a means to keep private citizens from starting their own personal taxi service/ride share company...

Typo, should read:

My point was, simply, if the costs get too high, there's nothing keeping them in CA. They don't have employees, they don't own cars, they don't have maint. Facilities, etc - they just have an agreement to skim a certain amount of money off the top of every drive. If the amount they skim gets too low, "the juice might not be worth the squeeze"...

Ride share companies can stop operating in a city, state, etc for any period of time, from hours to days, with nothing more than a simple programming change.

It is possible for CA to regulate the ride shares out of the state - and if that happens, that leaves a whole lot of "gig workers" scrambling to find work. I'm not saying it's likely, I'm saying there's very little keeping them there if the regulations get to onerous.

I replied to the first two sentences you wrote. You need to learn to think. Then you need to learn to educate yourself on the subject. Once you combine all of those things you will at least have a chance of writing a super long comments that someone will read completely. I did stop reading after your words proved you have no idea what you are talking about. I just went and read it in it's entirely to see if I missed anything that indicated you knew what you are talking about. There was no such content. Stop wasting people's time.

You lack imagination - the drivers have no leverage - Lyft, Uber, etc can choose to leave a state and make it happen within a few hours, and, as the drivers aren't really full-time employees of the ride share companies they 'gig' for, they really have no advance warning protection that I can see.

If drivers demand excessive compensation and ride share companies can't make a profit, the companies will just close up shop.

What will stop them?

He'll run. The political consultants are salivating at the donations this guy can attract, and the consultants are paid a percentage of the as buys they make on behalf of a campaign.

There is absolutely no way Newsom won't be in the 2028 Primaries. He may not make it to the General election, but there's no way he'll sit out the election - just ask yourself why he's traveling to all these random states for the mid-terms?
