Trader Joe's cashier bells have entered the chat. Ironically, the "request assistance" button and accompanying blinking light on top of your stand at self-checkout are the "self-managing" version of that where you as the customer are partly an employee. oh well

I can't help but think that thee's some sort of tragedy of the commons type thing going on here. Probably the wrong metaphor. But: it seems like a lot of what the article is getting at is that we can all intuitively agree that the population of children in society being more independent is good for a healthy society (or not just intuitively I suppose, he backs it up with mental health data). Any given parent can know this. But even if you know it, can you knowingly accept doing something that causes a 1% chance of losing your child in exchange for a 99% chance that they'll grow up better off? It seems most parents can't.

In other words, it seems substantially less connected to "tools" than Gemini (even in an incognito).

So, yes, but there are random things that it can be disastrously bad at. Like math expressions (especially with units) where it will just give you some random hallucination. Where Gemini (even logged out) on the same thing is totally fine.

Just FYI OP (assuming OP is the author of the post) there's no margin on your blog. Text goes all the way to the edges.

As a related sidenote, I wonder how quickly ChatGPT replaces much of the customized tools here? ChatGPT is probably pretty proficient at being able to describe the contents of eg a screenshare, or a screenshot of a website.
