Does that imply that with enough effort spent on fine-tuning the configuration, other LLM runners can achieve similar results?

sure. but to be fair, I don't see a reason why AI couldn't generate a non-random juxtaposition

Looks like a juxtaposition to me.

Can you give me some examples of an actual creative output from a human that wasn't coached into it or random juxtaposition?

Can you post some links to other similar projects you've seen? I'd love to compare different approaches

Not sure about the exact same active substance, but Amanita muscaria is the obvious candidate. It's also commonly shown as part of the imagery in stories involving tiny people: the Smurfs, Super Mario (it's the power-up that makes Mario bigger/smaller), Fantasia, Alice in Wonderland, and so on.

It triggers for me on trains too, so I think it's just accelerometer + location

This is a really inspiring project and exactly the type of content I'm looking for on Hacker News.
A bit surprising that so many people in the comments would rather see links to cheap temu polaroid knockoffs.

There has been a similar project developed in Poland already. (https://en.media.pkobp.pl/78483-strategic-partnership-betwee...) In practice it's not much more than government-branded version of Google Cloud Platform and Microsoft Azure. So far it serves well as a marketing vehicle for a handful of the biggest corporations, but it's barely used by anyone.
I can see it could make sense as a solution to some particular problems though – European regulations often forbid banks from processing/storing customer data in other countries, so even though the tech is provided by the American tech giants, having everything hosted locally makes it possible for local financial services to finally move away from hosting everything on premises.

Wouldn't it make more sense for them to just take over Hulu? They are going to have 60% equity quite soon anyway

Not a book, but you might like Dirty Money series on Netflix.

I totally agree with you on the mandatory part, I’d hope it would be widely accepted that opt-in is the way to go in such cases.
Although I need to point out there’s a huge difference between what people say vs what they actually do (see https://www.nngroup.com/articles/first-rule-of-usability-don...) and I can’t imagine an effective product development process that ignores the actual usage data.

Transcriptions are not really the issue here, the cost of freelance transcribers is relatively low. It is privacy that makes it so hard, most of the call center calls need to have some kind of user authentication, which means they would need to be anonymized prior to being transcribed and used as a training material.

I’d say all of those examples show that you need to be first to the actual market, not just first or first to _some_ market
