Marketers here used metaphorically not literally. People/bots hyping these tools is what I meant. I wish people here would be more attuned to the context of comments before jumping to conclusions.

When marketers of these tools make them sound like next-level in universal intelligence surpassing even humans, and they under-deliver consistently, don't blame the audience or the public for the tool's shortcomings, but the misle

1- The talking point expressing an anti-consumerist sentiment for the Christmas holidays is cliched and boring. 2- This is actually offensive not because of the nature of the lyrics, but for its association with Eminem. I'm not an Emin

From an intellectual standpoint, the bot is impressive and this is coming from an AI skeptic BTW. I get your perspective that a reductionist view of humans as solely intellectual agents is severely lacking, and bordering on dehumanizing if

It's amazing. impressive and fascinating but not superhuman, at least not yet. Also, you can't really dismiss AI skeptics by associating them with denialists that don't see anything of quality or value of these creations desp

> to identify areas for improvement > to enhance the performance of the system. Isn't this basically the same thing? Isn't it being redundant here? One of the areas of improvement is likely to be the overall performance of

Its writing style is also trite, dry, verbose and tedious not to mention, the penchant for run-on sentences and blocks/walls of text. I know that it's been tailored to output like this by its own creators to suit this medium of co

Better late than never. Just jump in and see what this tool — pun intended — can provide you now and let go of the past.

The original topic that you cited is symptomatic of ineffectual autodidacticism (knowledge management) and analysis paralysis. As for the former, I recommend taking notes diligently while studying/learning new topics and filing these n

You model this situation as a host-guest relation when it's more like a business-client relation especially when they agreed beforehand to comply and meet the conditions and rules set out by the international governing/organizing

Awarding the World Cup hosting to an ultra-conservative and self-righteous country like Qatar that truly believes in their own sense of moral superiority and cultural supremacy was a big big mistake in the first place. I knew it early on th

By incestuous, do you mean full-blown incest literally or just plain cronyism and good old boys' club?

Yeah you're right, FOMO and the bandwagon effect are at play here.
