    Any manned mission in the next 100 years or so to the surface of a moon or planet is basically unnecessary and just to show we can. I am not saying this is a bad thing - but much o…

    I first used GPT 2.5 many years ago through a google colab notebook. These newer models aren’t all that much better. I’m sure they do better on their tests because they’re trained …
