Appalling but true
it is MIRACULOUS that we got rid of lead paint and asbestos when we did. if we had tried that today, there would be people whining about how we're restricting their rights.
Bring back residential-use lead paint, you cowards.

It's with heavy hearts that we share that Claude, our beloved albino alligator, has passed away at the age of 30. Claude brought joy to millions of people at the Academy and across the world during his 17 year tenure. We will miss him dearly. 🤍

where does my beloved zojirushi rice cooker's fuzzy logic sit? which part of the ai plum pudding chart is responsible for making perfect rice. that's the part we should be giving a trillion dollars
Im definitely oversimplifying the science, but its a subset-set relationship. A (an?) LLM is a set of machine learning decision-making algorithms

Heartbreakingly magnificent piece of music, even for us heathens
As a non-Christian also a singer:
Some of you have never heard Lauridsen's "O Magnum Mysterium" and you are about to be BLESSED.
Hearing it is glorious, singing it yourself will literally bring you to tears.
