It’s not dystopian. You are thinking up a conspiracy based on absolutely nothing, when a far simpler and more obvious answer exists(that they decided it would make them more money), and then calling it dystopian. You’re basically saying “he

I don’t want to make unsubstantiated guesses, but we should remember that GPT3.5 was originally just GPT3.5 and when they came out with turbo it not only sped it up but also reduced the cost (to us) by like 10x of what it used to be if I re

As others have noted, there is a “temperature” parameter that defines how much randomness gets injected in its process. With a temperature of 0 it’s results would be repetitive and lack any type of creativity. With a temperature set to max

What you just said would be a good thing(1). That would mean that more bugs are getting fixed. (1) unless the PRs that they generate are garbage.

I hate it, but this is a good move by Musk(if intentional). I learned more about x.ai than I cared to just during my confusion when I typed “ai.com” and this came up. It’s like advertising that’s targeted directly to people that care about

“If you can make something 10k x faster you didn’t so much fix it as just switch it to working correctly as it should have in the first place.” There’s a word for what you are trying to explain. The word is “fix”.

Entities DO hide their money in tax havens to avoid paying taxes. They avoid paying taxes BECAUSE tax havens have low or no taxes. Those two definitions are defining two ends to the same thing. The caymans have low or minimal taxes. The ca

You might not like it, but the Caymans are absolutely known as a tax haven. You can’t really be arguing that people stash money in the Caymans “because of the transparency”… “The Cayman Islands are considered a tax haven because the Caymans

“I would not take anonymous crypto for ethical reasons” Lmao. You’re sitting here telling us that if you got a a real, anonymous donation of $100k, you would not accept it because of a moral objection to the type of currency? Of all the fak

It’s pretty simple, really. There is “wink wink nod nod” collusion going on across the industry to suppress wages right now. They know that if everybody else is suppressing wages right now, they can without too much “trouble” as well. Their

Nobody uses copilot intentionally to violate copyright law. People do use crypto mixers intentionally to violate money laundering laws.

Maybe it’s just because I don’t know the Reddit API, but doesn’t caching semi-solve the problem? At Applo’s scale at least? I HAVE to assume there is quite a bit of overlap in Apollo’s mentioned 7 billion Reddit api requests last month…

Lmao you’re literally arguing about the cost of the shelf space for a book in a library now? What if the people that donated the books also donated money for shelf space? It’s literally free to tax payers then. You must realize at this poin

Censorship is the act of suppressing content that is viewed as objectionable. There is nothing in the word that indicates the method of censorship. Allowing a subset of people to dictate what is freely available based on that group’s moral

I mean, yeah that IS a form of censorship. A majority saying “we allow free access to any knowledge except X domain or Y specific book”. But just think this through. Imagine how terribly ideological available book selections would become if

As always, whenever there’s an article involving Microsoft(or other big tech) on HN, the comment section is littered with people that didn’t read the article, made up a fake point in their mind, and then rage about that fake point in the co

Since when is authentication UX inside of a game the responsibility of the individual bank? That would be super crappy if every bank had their own auth ux in every digital platform.

I don’t get why it was the bank’s fault/responsibility here? I would understand if we were talking about Apple or Roblox or something, but why the bank? It’s not like the bank got the money back from Roblox/apple. I don’t think th

The reason she is being punished is because she committed very flagrant fraud. Fraud that likely lead to deaths as people trusted theranos’s fake blood test results. Also, her cofounder got a little more prison time than she did. Not everyt

I could be wrong, but people in prison usually still have access to email. And even if they didn’t, they have 2 *years* to have a friend/family to log in for them. For a free service. This is fake concern created by people that just wa

I just used ChatGPT with gpt4, copied your problem from your post, ran it, and the first result worked just fine. Might be that you’re using gpt3.5(understandable because not everyone has access), or maybe you asked in a different way than

Idk about “blow my mind” but I was surprised that it helped me figure out “the song at sporting events that goes “boom boom, ch”.” Maybe that’s an easy thing to know, but I expected to not get a good answer.

TikTok is currently being considered for a total ban in the US isn’t it? And it’s banned on US government devices? Not the greatest example to use for your point.

That is the case for companies that overhired during the bull market. IBM, on the other hand, has been losing employee counts steadily for over a decade. If a company that people are expecting to be losing relevance does a layoff, it’s stil

Speaking of cyclical IT, my estimate is going “forward” to the terminal/mainframe-esque concept of simple and cheap “terminals” aka laptops that you use to log into a much beefier “mainframe” aka cloud workstation. I’m at a FAANGMULA
