Those must be them defensive bombs that only fall on people who are attacking you.

As a 51 year old you'd think I'd be worried about a stock crash wiping out my pension, but the joke's on then - I could never afford a pension.

Please excuse the ignorance of a non-American, but what the fuck is a national prayer breakfast?

It would not surprise me if this inspired systematic vandalism of these devices. Not that I would ever advocate for such a thing.

I'm a pretty staunch skeptic about AIs utility - I think the executive class bought into the hype and were seduced by the prospect of big waves of delicious redundancies with the attendant stock boosts, without ever actually bothering to find out if it works.

That said the article refers to that MIT study that is quite dated, and (like many) somewhat mis-characterize its findings.

For anyone who's tried to solve linguistic processing tasks with traditional methods (or even tried to write a text adventure!), it's clear there's huge potential of LLMs for /something/, but the idea that there's a way to pay for the operating costs and absurd levels of investment that has already happened is laughable.
