Assuming you meant 164 million taxpayers...

Your number is too low still. Half of those filers are not contributors, they receive refunds. The figure is more like ~65 million taking on this tax burden, so likely closer to 15k (rounding math)

Many projects, many teams. Eventually it all becomes tens of thousands of unread emails, a lot of "thanks, but I've gotta leave for my next meeting", and lots of multitasking.

Pseudoephedrine is a decongestant to relieve the nasal/sinus congestion.

If it helps with your coughing, it’s because it’s stopping the postnasal drip, not suppressing the cough as DXM would by shutting down the cough reflex.

Two different, but very similar use cases. DXM is a god-send in the appropriate time.

Was it Grok 4 Fast by chance?

I was dealing with something similar with it yesterday. No code involved. It was giving me factually incorrect information about a multiple schools and school districts. I told it it was wrong multiple times and it hallucinated school names even. Had the school district in the wrong county entirely. It kept telling me I was wrong and that although it sounded like the answer it gave me, it in fact was correct. Frustrated, I switched to Expert, had it re-verify all the facts, and then it spit out factually correct information.

You should've read further.

In reality, when getting out first to market, it might be difficult for "AI" to decipher if a user added 1 of 5 available sauces to their chicken wings, so to reduce the likelihood of this error, you remove it until the technology is more mature. Speculative sure, but a strong assumption, and I doubt Mashgin would confirm this.

I believe it's because statistics can be interpreted in different ways and requires analysis (work). "AI" just gives you an answer, even if it's wrong.
