Some people are working hard to remove CO2 from the atmosphere to meet the Paris goal of limiting warming to 1.5 °C. Recently, someone came to my door wanting to know if I wanted to donate money to help farmers reduce their CO2 emissions. He didn't realize that farmers actually use CO2 generators to help their crops grow. Kids are not getting the education they need.

GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 aren't going to replace doctors anytime soon. The chatbots answered correctly just 21% to 41% of the time, although in another 27% to 29%, the accuracy of the answers could not be established, for some reason. At least, the bot did not do any harm, according to the researchers. Again, it's important to remember. These chatbots don't necessarily provide you with the correct answer. Just what a correct answer would probably look like, given the information fed into it.

And now the guy has that on his record, and has to explain it away every single time. What corruption.

This link was supposed to help the novice to learn meditation. But it's way too complicated. I'd be surprised if anyone learns from this. The process is not too complicated, actually. The trick is to keep doing it, until you can do it effortlessly and regularly.
