I'm glad
Also for easier understanding I thought we already had Simple English in the list of languages
Data labeler in a cage? You sure that's a paid job?
Wait * checks timeline * am I going to root for a Disney lawsuit now? Take me out of here this isn't funny anymore
That's aggressively anxiety inducing more than surprising
I remember this teacher in particular who was explaining something and said "dissipate". He paused and picked me out of the group, for no apparent reason, and asked if I knew what dissipate meant. I said yes. So he asked me to explain, which I did, and he looked surprised and said something like "you're on fire" or similar and carried on.
That particular example stuck with me because of his condescending tone and for pointing the spotlight to me gratuitously, but I've had many, less memorable ones. It's not the words that I remember after a while, but that they presume I don't understand the meaning of a word apparently unusual for them. "Melancholy" and "quotidian" come to mind too.
On the same vein, I also surprise English speakers when reading, writing and understanding scientific names. Not all of course, but many are descriptive of the creature they refer to if you know a latin language. What's often a mouthful of nonsense for native English speakers can sometimes be meaningful to me.
Right so you give up your hormonal health and your ability to reproduce in exchange for the ability to work a couple extra hours every month, since you no longer need a toilet break to change your tampon. Yeah sounds like a deal

I don't know if I'd read the book as described.
I would read a well thought book which would focus not just on Altman, but on his contemporary ai developers. Sam is a very public figurehead, but there are other AI tools out there and they get a lot of use, in particular the image generation ones.
I would also read a book which criticized AI from more perspectives than just capitalism and oligarchs screwing us. I mean don't get me wrong that's a very important point but it's not the only one and I want my rainbow complete.

The link in this post says absolutely nothing of value. The link I posted in this comment should take you to the actual paper.
Fair fair. Yeah I'm not a fan of soggy lettuce, I can tolerate it now but as a kid I was adamant on not having it as part of my toastie or, even better, add it after toasting.
Okhay... Um... Originally I asked because I thought, cool, I kinda like lofi, maybe this is something I should check out but with nazism on the table maybe I should forget about it
So another study that found out what the majority already considered obvious, except for some old fashioned extreme religious minorities
