I’ve literally integrated LLMs into a materials optimizations routine at Apple. It’s dangerous to assume what strangers do and do not know.

All the technologies you listed behave deterministically, or at least predictably enough that we generally don’t have to worry about surprises from that abstraction layer. Technology does not just move on, practitioners need to actually find it practical beyond their next project that satisfies the shareholders.

People said the same of Sadam. Trust me, more imperialism can make it worse.

We just took one of their toys: an oil tanker.

The west didn’t want to pay the price for their apology for antisemitism so they had the Palestinians pay in land and blood.

Is this before or after the Lord commanded them not to wear mixed fabrics?

It’s the reason my son won’t talk to me.

This Marine Park fellow sounds like one bad hombre.

Not $200 but ended up buying a xerox phaser. When looking at cost per page it is one of the cheapest though.

Maybe I’m weird but I don’t like getting a scanner combo. Scanners break more easily than printers and after my Brother all-in-one had a busted scanner I’ve been going for portable scanners that run off USB power from the laptop. Canon lide has been a solid scanner for me.

I think this is trans positive, here’s why:

I wonder how well this runs AutoCad and adobe

Depends on where the plane crashes, but definitely won’t be conscious.

So you are able to not be intentionally obnoxious. I honestly wasn’t sure.

There’s a difference between seeing and perceiving. If you see AI slop and don’t see how it is different than something crafted by a human expert, that is a problem of one’s perception.

1. How Generative AI is framed by the industry is an affront to humanistic values.

2. It’s not even close to consciousness. For those of us who understand how these things work it’s almost an insult to make the comparison.

3. All the other unethical considerations mentioned elsewhere by others (stealing art, water usage, politics).

Once used bananas so ripe the bread was turning into alcohol

It’s important to bully them Cause bullying works and it hurts people’s feelings

• little hag, show my your head

It’s not an either or situation, there is plenty of blame to go around. But I believe that the people with the most power are the most responsible. I know that runs counter to American corporate culture and can be a cultural shock to hear.
