Question is do you provide backup

Please let the US follow Brazil and South Korea

Besides the other commenter highlighting the specific nature of the linked study, I will say I’m generally doing technical queries where if the answer is wrong, it’s apparent because the AI suggestion doesn’t work. Think “how do I change this setting” or “what’s wrong with the syntax in this line of code”. If I try the AI’s advice and it doesn’t work, then I ask again or try something else.

I would be more concerned about subjects where I don’t have any domain knowledge whatsoever, and not working on a specific application of knowledge, because then it could be a long while before I realize the response was wrong.

Could you try to understand what I’m saying instead of jumping down my throat?

If I want to turn off a certain type of notification in a program I’m using, I don’t need to sift through three forum threads to learn how to do that. I’m fine taking the AI route and don’t think I’ve lost my humanity.

Lots of legitimate concerns and issues with AI, but if you’re going to criticize someone saying they used it you should at least understand how it works so your criticism is applicable.

It is useful. Chatgpt performs web searches, then summarizes the results in a way customized to what you asked it. It skips the step where you have to sift through a bunch of results and determine “is this what I was looking for?” and “how does this apply to my specific context?”

Of course it can and does still get things wrong. It’s crazy to market it as a new electronic god. But it’s not random, and it’s right the majority of the time.

Pretty concerning that a “western democracy” is doing this, because it gives cover for the next one and the next one.

It’s easy to say “oh I’ll just stop using such and such a service” but what happens when there are no more legal services to switch to?

You should watch the documentary “Under the Sun”. North Korea agreed to let the director film with the understanding he would follow their directions, almost to the point of following a script. However he secretly kept filming. It’s pretty fascinating. https://imdb.com/title/tt5129818/

You know it’s not strictly auto completing sentences that previously existed, right? It’s using words that it anticipates should follow others. I’ve had it suggest code libraries that don’t exist, and you’ll hear about people going to the library to ask for books that haven’t been written but supposedly by real authors, and it sounds like something they would write.

Tab music notation is super common, and although it wasn’t supported by this particular service before, you could see where it might be the sort of request people make, and so chatgpt combined the two.

Busting out the slur deep cuts

Same, our church growing up never talked about that. (disclaimer atheist now)

I know that scholars understand the “official” Bible as a combination of earlier sources. Still, it’s funny how much Bible fanfic there is. How do you decide which stuff is real and which stuff is too crazy.

He’s a shit show, but SpaceX is still doing great. They have more launches per year than any other company or country. While they’ve had multiple launches explode recently, that’s their newer larger rocket where they’re still working out kinks.

If they can’t get that into shape eventually it could be a problem for the company, but their smaller rocket has a great record, reusable, a fraction of the cost of any other launch provider. Right now they’re the only game in town for the U.S. getting to the ISS.

I’d love to see Musk ousted, and more importantly to see real competition from other private launch providers. But don’t let Musk hate color your view of reality.

Even if you didn’t read the article, the op helpfully included the first few lines, which say that although Honda had said they were studying rocket technology, they made no announcements about this launch until it had already occurred.

I do too. I think some people don’t understand it’s shortening “best regards” or “all my best” and instead think it’s saying “I’m the best”. At least that’s what one co-worker said to me. But I still use it.

I think you’re misunderstanding the argument. I haven’t seen people here saying that the study was incorrect so far as it goes, or that AI is equal to human intelligence. But it does seem like it has a kind of intelligence. “Glorified auto complete” doesn’t seem sufficient, because it has a completely different quality from any past tool. Supposing yes, on a technical level the software pieces together probability based on overtraining. Can we say with any precision how the human mind stores information and how it creates intelligence? Maybe we’re stumbling down the right path but need further innovations.

Agreed. We don’t seem to have a very cohesive idea of what human consciousness is or how it works.

Other people replied, but to rephrase: the USB will not work with a car, and there will never be an adapter that will allow it to.

Instead you need a way to send the audio from the ipod headphone jack into your car stereo. Something like this.

It’s from the show “I think you should leave.” There’s a sketch where someone has crashed a weinermobile into a storefront, and bystanders are like “did anyone get hurt?” “What happened to the driver?” And then this guy shows up.

Interesting article for a few reasons. I didn’t realize how much Pakistan was reliant on Chinese military systems.

Very challenging situation. To me seems like the thing to focus on is lack of electoral legitimacy. Maybe I’m using the wrong frame of reference coming from a larger country, but $8 million a year for a country’s leadership expenses doesn’t seem overly expensive. But I do understand being mad to spend any money on people who haven’t been chosen by the country’s citizens.
