"problem is the entire argument-counterargument tree is hundreds of thousands of words, scattered about in many places" An llm could solve that.

Prevention always cheaper than cure.

Jeff Koonz thrives, invents tools to produce new works, and will not be replaced by an LLM. Art is wide, and it should not be reduced to a few Koonz'.

I hear highly experienced COBOL devs make bank. Supply and demand. Great for them!

Pizza maker will not be the first job automated away. Nor will janitor. Form fiddlers are cheap and can be blamed. AI fiddlers can be blamed too but are not cheap, yet.

This is the way. If we all did that, our health care system would be the best the world has ever seen. We mostly do the opposite. We give up on our own agency in terms of our healt…

A clump == blocking the passing lane. They are definitionally the same.

"ask whether, in the urban Indian context, the arithmetic skills that are used in market transactions transfer to the more abstract maths skills taught in school." I have a hard ti…

But you didn't marry her.

Maybe someone could try to prosecute Trump?

Not really. The vast majority of adults are not at all accountable in today's society. We blame.

So you defend it on the grounds, specifically, correct me if I am misinterpreting, that it is nothong beyond a rebranding of typical HR legal speak? You either think it is importan…

The media coverage of it does.

I wouldn't call him genius, but maybe you're right.

I 100% gaurantee you don't recycle. Perfect, enemy the good. That said, couldn't agree moreabout air travel or travel in general; a monument to man's self endulgent waste.
