You know what the best way is to ensure that your children don't become second-class citizens because they're an ethnic minority? Treat the ethnic minorities well today. Lay the fo…

You must be unaware of all the recent safety improvements in cars: things like anti-lock brakes, collision avoidance, and traction control have saved countless lives, and they're b…

From what I saw, it's been leapfrogging for the past few weeks. Even if Apple is currently behind them, I don't think it's particularly fair to say it's "fallen to" them.

Sorry, this is just plain facts, and anyone who doesn't understand that at this point is clearly trying to avoid cognitive dissonance. Or they have their heads terminally in the sa…

The underlying problem in most cases of drug addiction is poverty, or lack of human connection and meaningful work. Yes, addiction has a physiological component in many cases...but…

"Let the customer verify if the flour has asbestos in it, and decide if they trust it." "Let the customer verify if the car airbags were installed properly, and decide if they trus…

And if the training stops, the existing LLM models will fairly quickly decay in usefulness. There's no free steady-state of high-quality current models for this; it's either keep i…

Or , and here's a thought...maybe you set the tone. Whether you meant it to or not, your post sounded snide and arrogant.

> LLMs are writing as well as humans for people who think writing words is the goal. Only if what you mean by this is "for people who think padding a word count is the goal". LLMs …

Necessities aren't always immediate necessities. Air is a necessity. If you don't have it, you'll die within a few minutes. Water is a necessity. If you don't have it, you'll die w…

Or you can have the backend at the first URL detect which action should be taken based on which button was pressed, and act accordingly—even up to passing control off entirely to a…
