Really?

I started using ChatGPT to answer q's about trig through calc through linear algebra for an optimization class I was taking. It was garbage at the concepts, even inventing theorems and equations out of thin air. Not unusable, but if you didn't already have a thorough understanding of the actual principles, you would blindly copy. Luckily for me that stuff was all refresher so I could spot it's bullshit. But to people new to the material they would just end up confused as nothing would work out to a whole cloth.

"As *Little* as one hot dog daily"?!?

That's quite a lot of hot dogs! Not a small amount at all.

The race is already underway, and the EU is already way behind.

You can argue that AI is going to the "bottom" (whatever that means) and it doesn't matter, but that seems rather foolish. People betting trillions of their own money obviously see things differently. LLMs are improving dramatically, and there's way more to AI than just LLMs.

By forfeiting yet another technology, the EU will sit and watch as others get there first.

And sometimes, what you see in advertising is simply the only good parts of the creative effort.

This happens a lot with movies, but I can totally see it happening with games, too.

Or what if you like what you see, but the mechanics totally suck when you play.

Trump is the dictator of the proletariat.

The white-collar bourgeoisie is not happy.

It's not turning out like Marx predicted.

>when I can simply open up a beloved classic that I never got around to?

How do you know it's a beloved classic for you if you've never got around to it? You could think it sucks instead of being a "beloved classic".

The largest round of layoffs since ... one whole YEAR ago! Wow. That's something!

It's almost as if they are trying to pressure more rounds of layoffs from happening through their breathless reporting.

Why do you say that?
Already have cultus who are saying that it's good that we should tighten our belt and that they don't mind prices going up.

Your work is not special enough for survive AI, either!

I guess the government could restrict AI. We'll see. That would be interesting.

Every 10-15 years there appears to be a wave of specific attack vectors, which first get exploited by professionals on a small scale, and then eventually ravage larger sectors of the IT industry, typically caused by anarchistic teenagers. We remember the wave of buffer overflow exploits leading to massive pwnage 20-30 years ago. We lived through Anonymous and LulzSec tearing apart gazillions of sites with SQLMap.

Current target seems to be not so much shoddy software, but unmotivated and underpaid help desks dishing out credentials and SIM cards to whoever is persistent enough or willing to pay bribes many times their monthly salaries - still very little compared to the damages these attacks ultimately cause. As usual we'll hear the refrain "experts from Mandiant are on premise and have already prepared an Excel sheet for the C suite", we'll squeeze some screws here and there, and business will continue as usual, with the same abysmal results.

I agree with the parent.

They will have to shut down. There is no way to comply with the law, nor should they have to (but that's another topic).

The only way that this will work is if the government only uses the law when it desires to, not when actual violations occur. If they tried to prosecute every incident they would be overwhelmed. So, it's a good tool of repression, I guess.

Law and medicine are advanced degrees.

Engineering is not.

Engineering is the most lucrative bachelor's degree.

Those who continue to law school, medical school, or an MBA are most successful when their undergrad degree was engineering.

>Neither is correct and these are just bugbears for politics.

Oh?

While estimates vary, studies indicate that investment companies account for a substantial percentage of home purchases, with some reports suggesting they may own around a quarter of all single-family homes.

ONE QARTER of all single family homes. That's quite a lot. And the more money they have the more homes they will purchase, and the higher prices will be.

I'm not saying supply isn't a problem, but if you can't admit that THIS is a problem then YOU are a problem too, as your view is skewed.
