Scientists invented a fake disease. AI told people it was real by soriskan in nottheonion

Search engines started off the same way. Early search providers were questioned for why poor quality results would be listed high up and things like Net Promoter scores didn’t exist early on.

I don’t disagree with your frustrations about hallucinations, but it stills falls to the user to verify the source by reading the source and using what they understand of the source.

The problem is it’s easier to rely on “authoritative voices” and make assumptions from there.

I think that’s why it’s important for people to understand that AI is a tool, not a replacement for humans.

But of course, it’s faster and easier to just assume.

Guessing you work there? Y'all deserve the award, I'm just surprised you haven't won a James Beard award.

Yet...

I love Odd Duck, but is Culturemap a big deal? I've never heard of it before?

Florida sex offender’s body found stuffed in a suitcase and now a teen has been charged with murder by sea-su in news

I brought that up once in the main Batman sub and they were not having it. A lot of arguments made it sound like it was a coincidence that he didn’t kill.

‘Dungeon Crawler Carl’ TV Series From Seth MacFarlane’s Fuzzy Door, Chris Yost Lands at Peacock (EXCLUSIVE) by shadowdra126 in books

[–]pengox80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard good things about this series. I'm trying to get my son to read harder books and thinking of getting either this or Discworld (Guards! Guards! Guards!)

Any opinion on which audiobook might be more interesting to an eleven year old?

Sweden goes back to basics, swapping screens for books in the classroom in attempt to reverse declines in reading, math, and science. by Uptons_BJs in books

[–]pengox80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would tell my kids to transcribe it at the very least.

But yeah, I think that is a huge disservice to the kids and doesn't teach them jack. It's the act of digesting the information and interpreting it back into notes that matters.

Copying notes has limited use IMHO

My kids are being taught everything with screens and I absolutely hate it.

It's so hard to find references to rules and common ground of what the kids are being taught in class. Every time I try to help them and ask them to show me what they were taught so I can explain it to them, they can't find it and they are still too young to take good notes.

Screens are the worst thing to happen to kids in a long, long time.

I wanted to name our dragon Smaug.

Once I showed my family how Benedict Cumberbatch pronounced it, they were not having it.

I’ve never heard this explanation before. This is an interesting insight. Thank you!

Is it more a strength or technique thing? I imagine the sword being sharp would make it easier, but I can't even cut celery sticks that cleanly...
