I built and open sourced something similar between 2024 and 2025. https://github.com/humthentic/itypedmypaper-v1 As others have pointed out, it's relatively a lot of effort to crea…

I think you're thinking of Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom, by Cory Doctorow.

This exactly. I don't understand the argument that seems to be, if it were real intelligence, it would never have to learn anything. It's machine learning , not machine magic.

I saw him perform 26 times in my life, and still those were rookie numbers. Still I thought there would be so many more too. Thanks for all the music, Bobby Weir.

I've been doing pretty much the same thing since 2019. The only big change I made was in early 2023, when I started saving a new version of the long txt file each day. It works ver…

I won't be providing my full name and email without more information, like at least a peek inside. Interesting legal argument regarding the brand though.

The author's argument seems to be a practical one and two-part: 1) without death, there's nothing to motivate us to live life well and 2) unless we live life well, there's no point…

It honestly seemed like pretty sharp marketing to me already when I read about it on AV Club.

I first used Duolingo back in 2018. That was how I started learning French. I majored in Classics in college and had taken Spanish all eight years of middle school and high school,…

I can see that your approach would be effective at shutting down conversation and stopping people from telling you their wild conspiracy theories. I think that with my experience, …

My experience has been very different from the one you're describing. The person I was talking to is someone who cares deeply for me (and whom I care for deeply too), someone I've …

It's a combination of never having learned the basics of science and now seeing the falsehoods they've been fed as equivalent to science. Take the Tylenol thing. You can explain to…

I think providers of so-called "answer engines" will read the writing on the wall and find new ways to support content creators in order to keep their databases fresh, relevant, an…

I've been using the voice chat in ChatGPT more and more frequently. I'm curious now to see how the costs associated with this would work through the API on some user-facing feature…

Intriguing analysis. I'll be following along with interest!

This is very interesting. I think a lot of people may be quick to overlook the value of such simulators when thinking about AI agents at the extremes. (Either they're not good enou…

I think this attitude is here to stay: people don't like reading something only to realize that it's been written by an LLM. That's only partially because of what the author descri…

Creator here, just seeing this. Thank you very much for the share! I'm reading all the comments now and will make updates to our database accordingly.

Very engaging look at a very difficult topic to approach analytically. I'm reminded of something I learned about the founder of Stormfront, the internet's first white supremacist f…

Good read. I've been reflecting recently on the idea of demand-side economic growth as something that happens across two variables: consumption and reproduction. Until very recentl…
