That may be true to an extent, but pay has stagnated more and more each year.

Adjusted for inflation, a teacher's salary in 1969 was well over $77,000. Today is at $60,000, with purchasing power being substantially lower.

In order for that argument to be valid, the country would have to be run as if it could see beyond the next financial quarter.

It is currently being run as if they are selling off parts of a stolen vehicle for scrap money, and maxing out all the cards they found inside.

Dumb question, but...is Claude worse than GPT or Gemini?

I was under the impression that it was the lesser of evils

The green dot beside your name tells everyone you're online on your phone, and likely saw the notification.

Fuck.

I'm reminded of that early South Park episode where Chef explains that the best way to make a baby cry is to first give it candy.

Then, once the baby is happy, only then do you take it away.

The best way to hurt people is to lift them up first, so the fall back down hurts twice as much...

This, and accidentally legalizing hemp weed are possibly the only positive things to come out of this whole debacle

All of these came on basic airwave stations in my area. (NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, UPN, WB, PBS, etc.,).

It wasn't until later that they were syndicated and played on cable TV.

I don't use them regularly, but I agree. Actual research involving peer-reviewed journals has nothing to do with AI.

EBSCOhost, PNAS, JStore, etc., all continue to exist outside the realm of AI, and I don't really consider anything to be "research" outside of this realm.

It's my understanding that Russia needs Ukraine if it wants to hold on any hope for future prosperity, and it has unlimited fossil fuel resources to finance the war as long as necessary.

Additionally, Russia has a far greater capacity to eat casualties in comparison to Ukraine.

It looks a bit bleak unless Ukraine is fully backed by a collaboration of western powers, and, for a variety of bad reasons, the U.S. is fucking that up.

That's wild. I switched to piefed.world and was unaware
