You heard it here first

And he was probably very inquisitive too. Great story.

Sounds amazing. How on earth did he go from shoeing horses to learning about the internal combustion engine? Seems quite the leap that not everyone would be capable of.

Being bought by nvidia also probably helped...

And yet this is somehow better?

More like that content creators are psychopaths?

Never heard of them, but yes they are a lobby company. So they're biased and lobbying for their interests and OAI are biased and lobbying for their interests. That adds a lot of colour.

"This is a lobby organisation using only the pieces and bits they like to push their own agenda."

Do you have any evidence of them being a lobby organisation (as opposed to OpenAI for example which spends millions of dollars hiring actual lobbyists)

YMMV, but the value I get from producing a diagram is derived from the thinking. Thinking about what I'm trying to draw leads to understanding about where my/my team's knowledge is poorer, what assumptions we're making, etc.

A terrorist organisation is whatever your government says is a terrorist organisation. Always has been always will be - there's no objective measure.

the algorithm is programmed to deliver it. Better engagement metrics with misery and anger than joy and hopefulness. (yes I know that you will reply 'but I prefer the joy and hope', but that's not the case across the wider population)

> We ejected one of the previous PMs for having a party during a lockdown

Weirdly that never happened, but that's how many people remember it.

He was ejected because he lost the support of his ministers (most of who resigned over a period of a few weeks) after he had made them to go out and lie to the public on his behalf in the case of Chris Pincher MP.

I'd just sell the companies?

Well they proscribed PA, and showing support for a proscribed organisation _is_ a crime.

"I wanted to move to Thailand to live with my girlfriend. I own a few companies" seems like tiny violin territory...

Except that the most effective way of conveying facts _is_ through narrative and storytelling.

That and powerpoint, obviously.

I was really hoping that this would lead into a discussion about Big Tech, but it was just a (interesting) tease.

I think that's addressed in the article ( the ladder example)

Why wouldn't it occur to OpenAI to run their models to secure their own systems? Seems like a clown show.

"after the (9-year old) boy complained about views"...what a time to be alive.

It's 1990s Microsoft Access but with AI

Your bet is wrong sadly.

Experiencing the story through someone else reading the words to you is different to reading though. I'm not sure why people are so weirdly defensive about this.

"Mosseri is not arguing that a chronological feed harms users. He is arguing that it produces less engagement and less time on the platform."

Seems like a great outcome, right?

One of the other millennium problems is counting to 7.

It's not snobbery, reading and listening activate different parts of your brain and you'll experience them differently. Just like reading an interview transcript is different to listening to an interview.

Regarding price - pre-owned ex-corporate ThinkPads are sold for very little, usually about 20 percent of the price of a new one. Plugged into an external monitor it might just work for you.

Worse false equivalence I've read on HN for a while.

I mean downvote all you like, but you know there's a team in place already doing their damnedest to define dark UX patterns to enable them to technically meet the restrictions.

Table stakes. Just the cost of doing business.

A bit like millionaires who park illegally because "it only cost $100 to park here, and my PA will do the admin"
