I think that's half the problem, though - how are we meant to believe it without someone with the mathematical smarts (certainly not me) having the time to go through all 722 what-have-yous and confirming they are what OpenAI say they are?

Is this disrespectful!
During our national

Kalif Raymond is not Muslim; he attended Greater
Atlanta Christian School, was active in the Fellowship of
Christian Athletes at Holy Cross, and has publicly
thanked "Lord Jesus" as his Savior. There is no basis for
the claim he was praying to Allah. x.com/PaulaJo4GOP/

Isn't it fucking weird AI models all have autism and no ability to make funny jokes? Like if you say "I actually was very angry" then immediately every other characters knows even if you write "but I was hiding it with a smile." Every single character no matter how previously established as thick

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

If a human did what ChatGPT did, they'd be convicted of conspiracy to commit murder, which can carry a life sentence. It's unconscionable that Canada's legislators are letting OpenAI get away with helping to plan murders. At the very least, it shouldn't be allowed to continue to operate in Canada.

It's great to see tailoring accommodate such extreme movement today. This level of tailoring was a bit more common in the past, as you can see in old films featuring Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly, but many modern suits will lift off the wearer's neck even when they're just walking.

Partially true, but it's also been kept alive because it's still the only plane we have in the fleet that fits certain critical support mission profiles. But just to be clear, the USAF tried to mothball the A-10 as early as the mid 80s, again after Gulf War I, & again after introducing the F-35.

DoorDash on Instagram: We messed up.
Our mistakes meant some NYC Dashers were underpaid or paid late. That's unacceptable, and we're deeply sorry to the Dashers we let down.
We've reached a settlement with the City of New York, and we will make this right by paying every impacted Dasher the amounts they are owed.
