    I'm sorry but what?! 'Socializing with people you know IRL' is almost exclusively what I've seen Discord used for, and almost solely what I personally use it for. There are vastly …

    Hey, are you perchance the famous 'First Officer Blunt'? Or... are you 'Captain Allears'?

    I'm a novice in this area so sorry if this is a dumb question, but what is the difference in principle between a 'non-reasoning agent' and just a set of automated processes akin to…

    Pardon my dumb query, as I'm a tech novice, but aren't QR just encodings of data? And the max amount of data a QR can encode is like 3kb, which would roughly correspond to 3000 or …

    I know next to nothing about physics, but isn't the "It just so happens" part of what you said potentially misleading? Isn't it that light is massless, so that directly implies tha…

    Some people wonder why the use of ‘AI’ in pathology is not more effective, and this is part of the reason.
