Wow, Apple is about to invent AI!

Correct... In late stage capitalism "innovation" means breaking some laws (Air B&B, Uber), smoke and mirrors (AI) or outright scams (Theranos)

This is why all these new "innovations" need to flood the market as hard and fast as possible.... Before anyone notices what they really are

So happy I deleted my account with them 5 years ago after going throught their laughably bad customer protection (the only reason I had them to begin with, I had figured it was a good idea to have a buffer between merchants and my CC)

In the end, it was perfect because, as they refused to help, I went straight to the credit card to reverse the fraudulent charge and closed all accounts with PayPal... Then I get a whiny email from them when the CC took the funds and left them holding the bag... Sweet minor victory

How? It's closed sourced tech. Not like Firefox can just add it, they would have to pay Google for it (and that's assuming google would license Firefox for this and remove a competitive advantage from Chrome Browser)

Proving once again that it's usually management that tanks a company.... Yet they get the golden parachutes

What you are stating is nowhere near the point I was trying to make.

We have seen a million times how a company can be destroyed for short term gains.... Most recent public example is red lobster

I have no clue if this is what's going to happen to google... But my point was that have a good last quarter (the one associated with the new head of Search) is not an indication that his strategies will pan out ... In fact, everything he touched before went the same way, short term profit, long term demise

Yeap.... Another brilliant short term strategy to catch a few eager fools that won't last mid term

Example of (reasonably) good prompt: This code introduces deep recursion and can sometimes cause a "maximum stack size exceeded" error in certain cases. Please help me convert it to use a while loop instead.

That sounds like those cases on YouTube where the correction to the code was shorter than the prompt hahaha

I asked ChatGPT for assistance with JavaScript doing HL7 stuff and it was a joke... After the seventh correction I gave up on it (at least for that task)

You have no idea how many times I mentioned this observation from my own experience and people attacked me like I called their baby ugly

ChatGPT in its current form is good help, but nowhere ready to actually replace anyone
