The amount of smart people I know that have never challenged AI to answer details about something they’re knowledgeable in SHOCKS me. Even worse is when they say “well it got like 70% of this right”… they want this to train pilots and assist surgeons, 70% doesn’t cut it man!
An easy way to think about what chatgpt does:
Take your favorite book. Cut it up into pairs of words: every pair that starts with "I," every pair that starts with "the," etc.
Sort each pair into a pile by first word. The "The" pile will be big, the "giraffe" pile likely tiny.

I read an article saying Austinites are upset about the city’s portrayal in the newest season of White Lotus. As a 20yr resident, if you think there’s anything way off base about the way they talk about Austin, you aren’t paying attention to how tech money is changing our city’s demographics

I’m so plugged in to both of these things I can’t even tell if this is a niche joke. But it’s 100% the funniest thing I’ve seen in days

This is what supporters of charter schools and vouchers don't tell you: because those schools aren't required to admit physically or learning disabled students, or ESL students, their "improved test scores" and whatnot are completely juiced—and it defunds the schools where disabled kids DO go.
WATCH: “Instead of giving money to private schools that don’t take kids like me, please help public schools get better and fund them.”
