I think it'll take a new component/circuit design for quantum to be viable for home computing similar to the transformation that happened to computers after the addition of the transistor

Nope. Older than the universe. Can't weasel your way out of this one science boy

Yeah, that sounds exhausting. Can we skip that

It's a tool to aid in creating a product, not a tool that magics out a finished product. That's my point. Too many people use it as the latter instead of the former.

Letting a language model do the work of thinking is like building a house and using a circular saw to put nails in. It will do it but you should not trust the results.

It is not Google. It can, will, and has made up facts as long as it fits the format expected

Not at the very least proof reading and fact checking the output is beyond lazy and a terrible use of a tool. Using it to create the end product instead of as a tool to use in creation of an end product are two very different things.

I'm glad you understand my point. Chatgpt is not Google. It's a language model that will give you something that looks like the thing you asked for it to provide. It can and will pull facts out of its recycle bin if it fits the cadence of what it expects the answer to look like.

I don't mind the tool itself if you use it as such. I do mind when people use its output as the final product. See: the lawyer who used chatgpt for a legal brief

When I say "fucking zoomer", I mean it in an endearing way. Promise. If a Gen z kid irritates me, I just link the sounds of dialup modems to them. Much more cathartic.

During the Klingon civil war, he was temporarily made Captain of the USS Sutherland

This is also where Data shows serious BDE to his racist(?) first officer.

It's actually the latest Jeff Geerling video and it was partly tongue in cheek

Corporate culture of prioritizing quarterly growth and profits above all other factors

Excessive reliance on meat based meals

Consumerism is the third leading cause of why we're boiling ourselves out of a planet
