Heavily investing in Openai was 1 of Nadella’s best decisions.

We don’t know. Maybe someone else would, maybe not. Before Chatgpt 3.5, ai was just a buzzword. It’s a bigger buzzword now, but at least tech firms have large-language models that they can market.

Eventually, people may stop writing, stop filming, stop composing—at least for the open, public web.

Strong statement by the writer. I guess that 1 of the things that may happen is that the firms behind large-language models will pay creators. I get that creators wanna link or interact with the human audience and that this payment model won’t accomplish that, but if it’ll be good cash, some creators will continue producing public works.

The fog of the future is thick. We dunno if large-language models will revolutionize the web long-term, or will fade in about 5 years. It’s an interesting time.

I googled. Isn’t it 45% Youtube and 55% vid producer?

Yes, paper bills if you’re so private. To avoid spyware, use a phone that has a removable 🔋, like the Fairphone 5. Connect the 🔋 only when you must use the phone.

In my nation, Apple pay and Google pay aren’t famous. The famous way to pay with a phone is using a qr code. It’s frictionless too. Paper bills are still famous here too. I think my spending behavior is the same whether I use paper bills, my phone or my debit card. Re using my phone or my debit card to pay, I <3 not having to deal with change.

There’ll probably be no more diskette makers in the future, so the train operator should stop using diskettes. I did a quick googling.

In January 2024, Japan announced it will no longer require floppy-disk copies of government submissions.

I did a quick search on amazon.com too. You can buy diskettes there.

I’m assuming the folks doing the upgrade know what they’re doing. Train operation is key, so to be sure, they may need to slowly move away from diskettes and slowly integrate ssds or whatever the replacement will be.

I still use large-language models for fun. My fav phone reviewer is Marques Brownlee. I compared his best big phones in his phone awards to Claude 3 opus’ best big phones – I asked Opus. I wanted to see the similarities and differences for fun.

I’ve been :) with the tight competition too. Claude 3 is making Gpt 4 and Gemini sweat.
