IMO Chatting through a known channel gives it a more polished experience to the user. This is really good.

It’s the same game. Betting on a pair when throwing two dice has the same likelihood than betting on a six when throwing one die.

The odds may be the same but the game is not the same.

The point of lottery games is to offer the lowest possible probability of winning that has a perception of being winnable.

So guessing few random small numbers feels easier than picking one random large number.

The whole point of the website is to show those games in a context where people without a math degree will get how low the winning chances are.

So the games with the same winning likelihood Are Not the same game.

I hope he was disbarred.

He was probably offered a role at some ai obsessed firm because of his “ai-native workflow”.

I'm just worried he was tapped for a position in the current administration.

Or sent to court-ordered LLM Awareness classes.

Maybe it’s stupid in your perspective. nevertheless; nations have the right to put laws in place and enterprises willing to provide goods and services ought to follow those rules.

And this is why the EU is stagnant and unable to innovate. These nations can do whatever they want but let's be honest about what's going on here. The law is stupid because it's forcing US tech companies to subsidize research boondoggles. They're providing bullshit jobs to useless academics who are incapable of doing any real work, and the final output will be some long reports that no one ever reads.

> And this is why the EU is stagnant and unable to innovate.

Can you help me understand how the EU is stagnant? Granted, they have lower economic growth than the US, but they're (mostly) not running large fiscal deficits.

And unable to innovate is quite simply, untrue. Deepmind (you know the people that invented LLMs) were a UK based company and were purchased by Google. Spotify & Skype were also both relatively innovative.

If by innovative, you mean are highly valued in the stock market above what a rational person would pay, then yeah Europe doesn't have as much "innovation". Now, if there was a single EU capital market (which honestly should be in London, despite the political complexities) then that might not be true.

Also worth noting that a lot of the US market is propped up by EU/EEA investors. Like, the Norwegian oil fund owns an appreciable amount of the US stock market. What would happen if all the European money was withdrawn from the US market? Nothing good for US "innovation".

And on the core point here, social media is now the public sphere, and as such is definitely worthy of investigation by academics. Like, if FB can do this (with much more personal data) then Twitter/X can do it. In fact, it would be super easy as they used to do it before Elon decided to attempt to monetise it badly.

Like, most studies of social media were performed on Twitter data, precisely because of this.

Why is there a shortage of radiologists today if image categorization was solved 15 years ago?

Have you ever talked to AI Support?

It’s easy to name a random industry and assume you’ll automate it with a few clicks. It’s harder to actually do it.

It’s also important to note that America is largely a service economy not a goods economy.

For every American citizen importing lumber from Canada there’re a thousand Canadian citizens who have a Netflix subscription.

Looking only at trade deficit is purposely blinding yourself.

Companies are also heavily cooking the books with IP and trade.

Netflix Canada Inc and Netflix Services Canada Ulc two local companies are collecting payments in Canada and they don’t want to look like they have any profits whatsoever. https://insights.greyb.com/netflix-subsidiaries-and-acquisit...

It’s really cool to see progress in most developed nations in terms of co2 per capita emission today vs 25 years ago. Thank you for the reference.

God forbid offended advertisers. Better to erase history than to lose some shiny pennies.

A business charges for a service and the service was met. what’s the problem here?

I would bet the TOS mentioned manual reviews.

Confidentiality breach. You are supposed to have processes in place to guarantee that your customers data is safe from employees that are not explicitly disclosed to the customer from having access. Saying 'a program makes annotations' versus 'me and my buddy are sitting in undisclosed on your confidential meeting' are two entirely different things from a legal perspective.

"I'll get you to the moon safely" = NASA "I'll get you to the moon" = me with a wood chipper and a very powerful potato gun The startup charged for "AI note- taking", not simply "note taking".

IMO the real fraud was against the investors.

If I invest in your AI startup and find out it's really people doing the work, I'm going to be pissed.
