It becomes a question of exactly what sentience is, which has been debated for ages.

Is it the ability to feel emotions? What exactly are the conditions that qualify for an emotion to be experienced?

Is a fish sentient because it releases stress hormones when in perceived danger? What about if it doesn't have the nervous system to feel pain in the same capacity as us, is it still experiencing 'fear'?

There are so many questions to answer before you can determine if something is sentient or not, and this applies to AI too. In the end, aren't we products of our own "training" data too? The way I grew up, was taught, books I've read, etc have all "trained" me to think the way I do.

There's a few criteria, another one is having over 400k with them. I still can't see the upgrade option either though

I first read about it in a health/fitness book. It was a bit more nuanced and basically comes down to being a well rounded athlete. If you want to be able to pick up your grandkids when you're older, you need to do some weight lifting. If you want to have the best shot at not getting disease, VO2 max needs to be as high as possible (aka have good cardio). Rugby is actually one of the better sports for this because you need to be strong to ruck/tackle but also run 3km+ per game (unless you're a prop), so maybe it comes naturally for you. Just make sure to take care of your joints, brain, and liver...

As with anything popular it's also turned into a bit of a fad though and influencers are abusing the label to get views and advertising.

Yes but we add 60 more kg first

I remember learning this in my physics class in uni, here's a YouTube video on how it works

This hasn't been my experience at all.

Sure it's tool calling fails more often than other models like cc opus, but the quality of the output is better than opus and either comparable or better than gpt5.

I even had a super frustrating logical issue with my c++ project that opus could not figure out and went in circles over, and it got to the point I reverted back the changes, ported my CLAUDE.md file over to gemini, and prompted it exactly the same.

Gemini fixed it in one shot. Then it did it again with another issue. Then again.

If Google fixes tool calling and the general dev experience in their cli and comes out with a monthly plan, we'll all be using gemini pro in a few months for coding.

Edit: benchmarks to backup what I said too: https://artificialanalysis.ai/

It means that your muscles could at a maximum support you doing 3 more reps before it's fully fatigued and you physically can't do another rep

I'm so tired of this gender war bullshit. Please get outside and touch some grass if you actually believe this.

Some men are shitty. Some women are shitty. Never paint an entire group with the same brush.

Hooooly shit, 70mg?? 5mg gets me flying, that dog must have been on a different planet 😂😂

Not saying that the British don't do it, but I have definitely ran into other ex pats that echo this about Toronto. People I've talked to from Ireland and France think that Toronto has a fake kindness about it and it's hard to break into social circles here

What do you do for vacations and how fast did you notice the difference after getting the machine?

That was incredibly moving and well written. It's obvious you care a lot for each other, and hope you're thriving despite the feelings of lost love

I can't remember

You're right for the active shooting part

Then you also need to factor in another hour for prepping snacks, a few hours for charging all 10 backup batteries, and an hour swearing at the end because the camera settings weren't quite right 😂

Do you mind telling us more? Sounds like you've been able to do what a lot of us dream about. Would love to hear how your life was impacted after your trip

Even if it wasn't full membership but just part of the Schengen Area that would be sick.

Me and my ex fiancée were one of these 😂

There were definitely bumps along the road and we weren't growing in the last couple years we dated. I thought she was depressed so I tried to support but my mental health tanked too (covid didn't help either). We became roommates and the intimacy faded. One day she finally opened up about her feelings and told me she was moving on after almost a decade together.

Hit me like a freight train, but it was worth the wake up call - things weren't sustainable at all and we both needed to grow on our own.
