It wasn't an accident though? It's a large transit van that doesn't have a driver

Hackers like to glitch other users. Randomly turn into a toilet, have all of your ammunition disappear, suddenly fly into the air and die on impact. It made public servers unplayable. Friends only sessions were necessary

"Actionable insights" is the opposite of these corpo buzzwords.

It's a phrase I use to shut down clients when they ask for something that doesn't have value. Also know as interesting but not actionable. I prioritize my time on finding actionable insights. Data that can drive decisions.

This is interesting. It seems a fair resolution would be to pay the content owner what they would have made in ad revenue.

As long as the AI is not reproducing original works to the extent that it violates fair use, I don't think copyright laws really apply. But there's definitely lost revenue.

While I am generally in the "copyright doesn't matter when it comes to AI" camp, I also work in advertising. Most people do not use ad blockers.

This is an interesting point that I haven't previously considered.

That was how I learned Boston has no good breakfast spots.

Also the hotel only served breakfast on certain days of the week? What the fuck is that about. But they gave me a free glass of wine when I got back to the hotel one night.

The people here are either delusional or trying to convince themselves they didn't see a disaster of a debate.

"So he didn't somersault onto stage" That... That's not the issue here

You are kinda missing the point.

It's not about how energy efficient or inefficient a single ChatGPT prompt is.

It's that A/C is arguably more important to an individual than your ability to use AI. But while the government asking people to reduce AC usage is not new, AI is.

So we're introducing new and unnecessary ways to draw power while asking people to tolerate higher temperatures within their homes.

My personal take is that we should be investing in nuclear power so we continue evolving as a society. But I guess we can hold back progress in the name of puttering along with other technology as the world slowly burns and people cook inside their homes

Yeah who is Elon? I've never heard of him or SpaceX or Tesla. I guess this Musk guy will die in obscurity. Too bad he didn't publish a paper.

Ah, Zicam. I'll never understand how shit like that is allowed to make claims

I don't know, it wouldn't really make sense. It's not the behavior of someone that actually intends to commit suicide.

I think it's profound stupidity. I know people here are calling it victim blaming, with the implication that he's a victim of, idk, illegal weapon sales? But you have to admit at 17 years old, it requires profound stupidity to turn off the safety and point a weapon at your own head with your finger on the trigger.
