Can't really say I'm surprised that Mr Facebook takes this attitude. His whole fortune is built on the belief that aggregating and hosting content is more valuable than creating it

I told one of my college professors I'd been having issues with some software I had to learn to use for another class, and he said "can I give you a tip? try using chat-gpt to explain how to use it" and without thinking I said "why would I use chat-gpt? It's rubbish" and his face fell. Sorry, Prof, I know you were trying to help.

This was after he'd said to the class that he knew we would all be using chat-gpt for assignments.

In January, Humane laid off about 10 employees. A month later, a senior software engineer was let go after she questioned whether the Ai Pin would be ready by April.

I have some exciting news for you. Have you ever heard of "effective altruism"?

I mean in this article they claim that girlfriend will be able to have seven kids, spaced a year and a half apart, and homeschool them, and still keep her career. They're obviously not too concerned about contradictory statements.

What is it about Reddit and this specific scenario? I've seen people talk about how the brutal truth is that disabled children are bad over and over again. If you challenge this, you're naive and possibly offensive. It's one of Reddit's weird fixations (see also: father's rights).

Moral uncertainty is reason to become pro-life? We do morally uncertain things every day. That's no reason to legislate.

How can a billionaire use the word "we" with a straight face. I look poor standing next to this guy. The King of fucking England would look poor standing next to this guy. But we're meant to all be the same?
