@forbes @breaking-news-forbes They are proving that they haven't a clue how much things cost. This is embarrassing and insulting.

Stop pretending #language is intelligence.

Don’t confuse plausible text generation with real #understanding.

Fluent answers feel smart, even if—especially when—they aren’t.

Knowing what #AI can do is cool, understanding what it simply can’t is smart.

LLMs give off a vibe of brilliance with words.

They read, remix, and generate text.

But their power is linguistic, not cognitive.

@Andres4NY get yourself an air purifier with HEPA quality filters. Helps with PM but not with ozone, unfortunately. Aqi is a little bit better in the evenings, with ozone levels going down. 😊
@scott Same thing in NYC. Now they are hiring private security at subway stations to discourage fare jumping. Such a waste of resources.
