elforce002··on Economic downturn and the influence of AI are claiming numerous jobs
Same. Heck, I went to SO just to find an obscure piece of info that help me solve my issue and saved me 1 or 2 days of asking chatGPT the "right" question. ChatGPT is good but you need a "Jarvis" type AI to be Tony Stark and even then Tony must point it in the right direction.
elforce002··on Posts, profiles, and user search are now available without login
Interestingly enough, I follow people on both sides of the aisle, and only left-leaning people have left Twitter. I haven't created a threads account because they're blatantly asking me to share every data they could access + their awful content moderation rules. At least there are plenty of options for people to share their opinions.
elforce002··on Facebook Is Being Overrun with Stolen, AI-Gen Images That People Think Are Real
Usually, I won't use any service, platform, etc..., but with FB, things hit differently. Never in my life, would I have thought I'd be proud of not being part of an org., yet here I am.
elforce002··on How Africans are changing French, one joke, rap and book at a time
That's a bummer for me. I spent +2 years learning French and now you're telling me this is useless. I'd assume I can talk with older folks and try to practice at restaurants, museums, etc. Prob I won't be able to communicate with GenZ but probably that's not the case for millennials.
elforce002··on OpenAI suspends ByteDance's account after it used GPT to train its own AI model
I think because openai took advantage of everyone and know doesn't want anyone doing the same thing.
elforce002··on Saudi Arabia Is Trying to Block a Global Deal to End Fossil Fuels
Well, this one is interesting. Asia. Africa. Latam. These markets are far away from being done with fossil fuels. When most of the world catches up to the rest of the developed world, then that initiative will succeed.
elforce002··on Keras 3.0
I use keras for CV but for DL at work, we started moving towards pytorch and closely following modular.
elforce002··on Argentina elects 'shock therapy' libertarian Javier Milei as president
By the looks of it, Argentinians didn't want to continue with the current system nor wanted the status quo offered by other parties. The elected president will either rock or bust.
elforce002··on Argentina elects 'shock therapy' libertarian Javier Milei as president
I'm not Argentinian but are you following Argentina's economy? 140% inflation with +40% poverty, etc.. will make any voter vote for him.
elforce002··on Altman was raising billions from Middle East sovereign funds for AI chip startup
Was there any time when the US (or the rest of the world for that matter) practiced responsible capitalism?
elforce002··on The Lack of Compensation in Open Source Software Is Unsustainable
My company uses lots of libraries from different sources. They are considering on allocating money for most of them. We'll start small but the idea is to keep funding those projects since we use them as part of our core products. We hope others step up too.
elforce002··on Ask HN: Is anyone else bearish on OpenAI?
I used it to create a credit score system to start a project and it gave me the basics. I don't expect anything other than that.

The real issue will be that majority of users will take the answer face value without even knowing if that answer is a good one or just nonsense.

"The AI said..." will create lots of issues. Time will tell.

elforce002··on GPTs: Custom versions of ChatGPT
So, basically develop something, earn $$ early on, and then prepare to be assimilated by chatGPT.
elforce002··on GPTs: Custom versions of ChatGPT
This business model will only serve them in the long run. Luckily for us, open source llms are getting traction and we won't depend on "open"AI to implement features on our apps.
elforce002··on OpenAI Signals That It'll Destroy Startups Using Its Tech to Build Products
Color me surprised. What would be the incentive of developing plugins for that matter?
elforce002··on Migrating our backend from Vercel to Fly.io
This x100. I use gcp, DO, and Vultr, for almost everything (ml, be, vas, etc.) but for webapps, vercel wins 9/10 times.
elforce002··on Friend's Chandler, Matthew Perry, died at 54
Man, him as Chandler was my favorite character in friends. RIP Chandler.
elforce002··on Samsung disables customer phones remotely, holds data hostage [video]
If Apple releases mid-tier phone after this, they will win the market for sure.
elforce002··on AI 'breakthrough': neural net has human-like ability to generalize language
I agree with you a 100%
elforce002··on OpenAI in Talks for Deal That Would Value Company at $80B
Listen, "Open"AI went from being research and openness to "for profit" using money specifically for the former. They are not to be trusted after this.
elforce002··on Two years of raising a bilingual daughter
First of all, OP's Spanish accent is really, really, good.

I'm doing the same thing with my children and the most difficult thing to control is the environment.

They way We're tackling it is to let them communicate with us exclusively in one language and with their grandparents, aunts, uncles, friends, etc... in their language. They only watch cartoons in the language We communicate with to improve their accent.

They take a little longer to talk (that was the fear my wife had when I proposed her this idea), but it’s worth it. My original Idea was to teach them 3 languages but my wife wanted to also talk to them in her language too so We decided to focus on 2 (Spanish, English) rather than 3 (Spanish, English, and French).

elforce002··on Ask HN: Is it just me or is mobile web browsing awful?
The thing is that other than e-commerce, grocery, or social apps, I don't spend too much time browsing anymore. Heck, I downloaded e-commerce and grocery apps just to check out prices, discounts, fees, etc., because their web solution is c@#p, to say the least. If it's something quick, some info regarding a specific subject, or a link someone sent me, I use brave and avoid all nonsense. I don't even bother with webviews, I go straight to the browser.
elforce002··on Europe gives Mark Zuckerberg 24 hours to respond about Israel-Hamas conflict
There are other alternatives to WhatsApp if they decide to go.
elforce002··on When does federal debt reach unsustainable levels?
This is the most reasonable answer.
elforce002··on Microsoft might want to be making Windows 12 a subscription OS, suggests leak
Interesting. I bought a Mac this year and I don't think I'll be coming back to windows and if this is their endgame, PC makers will go a different route too.
elforce002··on ASP.NET Core Blazor
Leave vercel alone, hehe. On a serious note, I've been trying to learn .Net & C# for a long time but didn't know where to start. I took a different route and learned other languages (py, js/ts, R, Dart, Swift) and now I don't know if it's worth learning it just for the sake of it.
elforce002··on Microsoft introduces AI meddling to your files with Copilot in OneDrive
It's not that hard: which ms product has no competitors? MS Office. This could be a company all by itself.
elforce002··on The Moral Case for No Longer Engaging with Elon Musk’s X
Not defending Elon here but I hope you don't use ig, fb, or any other social media platform because, from data breach to scamming, bad business is being conducted there too.
elforce002··on The FTC sues to break up Amazon over an economy-wide “hidden tax”
They need to break Microsoft too. These 2 are too big and have a chokehold on many areas.
elforce002··on D.C.'s ban on cashless businesses takes effect
These are good news. I used credit cards a lot but to pay for haircuts, etc... I use cash. We need more options, not less.
