Elon’s ego getting into Tesla decision making.

Humans manually posting AI responses is dumb. Stack Overflow should have a built-in AI responder, marked as such, that gives an instant unverified first response, which can then be…

I think if you want the same as ChatGPT you need the use the chat API, not the completions API.

We are currently surviving with a massive shortage of skilled labor, where people in the richest countries have to wait days or weeks to see a doctor, and months to see a specialis…

How would businesses built on top of this charge users? Per token?

Life expectancy in the USA is significantly shorter than other first world countries with national health systems.

If AI technology continues to advance and is able to take over most jobs, it will fundamentally change the way society functions. In a capitalist economy, people are expected to wo…

CSAM is a canary for general AI safety. If we can’t prevent SD from creating CP, will we be able to stop robots from killing people?
