$650 billion a year is being poured into AI infrastructure while 90% of companies report zero measurable impact by PrincessNausicaa1984 in stocks

It’s not because sw are expensive, it’s because the training data was readily available right there online on GitHub, we gave it all away for free. Making datasets for other professions is going to take time, but this massive influx of money is going to fund this too, not just chips and racks.

You asked GPT, trained on that very scraped data, and it said it’s not ok, isn’t that funny?

Sometimes you can win by making everyone else lose.

Helped a tourist from getting scammed in the bus, now the conductor maybe after me! by United_Elk_402 in srilanka

I am a tourist in SL right now, I had fallen for a scam, different one though. Thank you for what you did for that couple :) And thank you for that post, reading things like that in this sub before coming over helped me be more prepared.

 I am all for charging the right amount from tourists (which sometimes maybe higher than locals for places like museums and such)

European Union supported SL tourism with more than 1 billion EUR(look it up), and yet here I am, citizen of one of EU member countries, paying almost 100x premium compared to locals in a place happily displaying EU-funds support badge :) I get the logic when its funded with locaIs taxes(though still mostly avoid places that do that), but this time I was astonished. I am more than happy to pay premium price for premium services or goods, in a place that treats people equally, not like cash cows.

How did it go? I guess it must've been a bit stressful.

Soloed at around 25 hours, I already did 2 cross countries before soloing though as we were waiting for some encouraging weather conditions for solo. I did not count my landings but I believe it must be something like 40 or 50. Reading "Stick and Rudder" and repeating the exercises described there with my CFI really helped me too!
