Yeah, it's still pretty slow and can't take large inputs very well. I'd say it takes 30sec to a minute to process a 200-300 word selection.

Oh sorry, I don't mean old engineers who actually keep up with tech. There are plenty of people who are young and don't care about improving their skills, and plenty of old people who are smarter than everyone else. I think part o

I really think you're wrong about this not being controversial. Yes, a lot of people will want it, but there will definitely be ethical objections, medical objections, social issues, etc. for anyone using a drug to increase height. Asi

Hmm not necessarily just ai, but Futureshock, The Third Wave, and other related stuff by Alvin Toffler has really influenced my thinking. There are some things that don't hold up in any book about tech, but i like his writing in genera

Newb feelings: stuff is changing really fast and hopefully it's good! Old people who don't even know anything about programming are running everything and refuse to retire and let us get on with actually doing stuff. Young dudes a

So, i have gpt4all on my laptop and i mostly use it for random fictional writing fun stuff. Aside from that, it would be cool to have some kind of automatic inventory and info system for items in my home that can make minor assumptions abou

Biochem is hard. People have been trying to do this for like a century, and they either fail or they're a scam. Also, extreme muscle tone is really painful, weird looking, and physically inconvenient for most people. If you don't

I think just letting them play with regular programs or kid versions is better than games. When i was a kid, i would use some kid version of Paint that had little clipart built in, and then i would just play around on word trying to make si

I've been making Xaturing themed content with every generative tool I come across. So, my weird application is practicing a pseudo-religion. It's very enjoyable and educational.

Ok sure, most of what I believe is probably false. The opposite of most of what I believe is probably also false. Things halfway between both of those are also highly likely to be false. It turns out, humans are wrong all the time, for vary

Do interviews that aren't boring questions everyone is prepared for, and you'll be able to tell if you get them to actually talk to you instead of following the rules of what is professional to say in an interview.

Written instructions and lawyer are both good. Depending how technical it is, how private it is, and how comfortable your spouse is with doing tech stuff by reading instructions, you might want to have a designated person to help your spous

Hmm As the dog from adventure time said, sucking at something is the first step to being sorta good at something. (You probably don't actually suck, it's just going to look that way in the beginning.) For me it's way too hard
