We have much to learn from canopy latrines. For example, unlike these noble creatures of the rain forest, my dog struggles to properly use a bidet. Maybe if I put it on the roof it might all finally come together. In all seriousness though,

You have to tell it both what and how. That way it's decidedly less shit. Still needs tons of passes just keeping things somewhat coherent, but it mostly works.

Very scary stuff. Shame certain details basically discredit the entire thing. "Rohypnol and GHB fall within the benzodiazepine family" is so fundamentally incorrect I'm not sure what to say. And zolpidem is rather strictly a

Very much normal yes. This is why I've been (so far) still mainly sticking to having it as an all-knowing oracle telling me what I need to know, which it mostly does successfully. When it works for pure generation it's beautiful,

Probably the best we can hope for at the moment is a reduction in the back-and-forth, increase in ability to one-shot stuff with a really good spec. The regular human work then becomes building that spec, in regular human (albeit AI-assiste

Why would external host matter? Your machine, hacked, not your fault. Some other machine under your domain, your fault, whether bought or hacked or freely given. Agency is attribution is what can bring intent which most crime rests on.

That's what makes it bad. A fixed algorithm that soon will spawn pittances would do an utterly miserable job if it ever gained status and usage as actual currency. Deflation is bad. So much worse than inflation. Not having flexibility
