Yeah, I grew up in Wisconsin closer to the Minnesota border, so I used both as well. When I moved to Eastern Wisconsin, I solidified on "drinking fountain" because people here call it a "bubbler" and tease you more about "water fountain."

Oh yeah, and I remember getting blank stares in college when mentioning that we had a lot of hot dish growing up. I didn't realize how regional that phrase was.

Yeah, this is a clip of what he said.

Right. And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that. So, that, you're going to have to use medical doctors with. But it sounds - it sounds interesting to me. So we'll see. But the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute, that's - that's pretty powerful.

Yeah, we dissected frogs, worms, and fish in eighth grade. In high school, if you took anatomy and physiology, I know they also dissected fetal pigs.

The lack of justice seems to be a given, so I'll be fine with a rotting corpse that got away with it sooner rather than later.

My city has been making fertilizer from the sewage sludge for a century now.

And also, my gaydar still pings louder for lefty vs righty.

They're talking more about Expert Systems or Inference Engines, which were some of the earlier forms of applications used in AI research. In terms of software development, they are closer to databases than traditional software. That is, the system is built up by defining a repository of base facts and logical relationships, and the engine can use that to return answers to questions based on formal logic.

So they are bringing this up as a good use-case for AI because it has been quite successful. The thing is that it is generally best implemented for specific domains to make it easier for experts to access information that they can properly assess. The "one tool for everything in the hands of everybody" is naturally going to be a poor path forward, but that's what modern LLMs are trying to be (at least, as far as investors are concerned).

There is also something to be said about the framing of these two photographs as that distinction would be an intentional choice by the photographers and the publications which use their photographs.

Yeah, I like to think of out more as a spotlight than a mask. You're choosing which aspects of yourself to draw attention to rather than hiding yourself behind a persona.

That is, unless we're talking about the masking that neurodivergent people talk about wherein they put conscious effort into hiding their essential nature in order to fit in.

To be more clear about what they mean, "immaculate conception" refers to Mary being born without original sin and continuing to be free from sin throughout life. This allowed her to be a worthy mother to bring God's child into the world. This is generally only a tenet of Catholic teaching, and most other denominations reject the notion.

The term for a woman becoming pregnant without sex is "spontaneous conception," and it does rarely occur in some animals when they are isolated from males of their species. Though in those situations, the offspring are exclusively female as the female only has X chromosomes to pass on.

In the court document, it lays out how OpenAI developed the latest model to prioritize engagement. In this case, they had a system that was consistently flagging his conversations as high risk for harm, but it didn't have any safeguards to actually end the conversation like it does when requested to generate copyrighted material.

The complaint is ultimately saying that OpenAI should have implemented safeguards to stop the conversation when the system determined that it was high risk rather than allowing it to continue to give responses from the large language model.

FYI, "fiancée" refers to a woman, and "fiancé" refers to a man.
