    I am so sick of reading this horseshit AI writing. It's like eating vaseline.

    In case it gets edited, the title of the HN submission is "Steve Wozniak cheered after telling students they have AI – actual intelligence". I laughed when I read this, imagining a…

    "The screeching of peeling tape is a familiar albeit annoying sound." I don't find it annoying, I quite like it. The only time I've experienced "ASMR" was from somebody peeling tap…

    At that point why not just have an actual deterministic transpiler?

    Everything that has been "invented" was invented by humans and on some level depends on the laws of nature to function. I recently bought whey protein powder that doesn't come from…

    I'd personally be very sceptical that the human brain could derive much meaning from smell beyond "smells bad don't eat" or "reminds me of something", but I guess I would have said…

    Respectfully, I have no idea what you're talking about. Dead Poets Society is a story and the message of the story isn't that Robin Williams' character is bad. Are you saying my pe…
