On one side I agree that LLMs and Agents are not intelligent, but they present an illusion of intelligence given the shear amount of data they can process and act upon.

But that cannot be used to discredit the fact that these are incredibly powerful tools that can get out of control and cause great damage.

It's crazy because while the US is one of the biggest emitters per capita, it's also home of the brightest minds and have by far the most efficient research ad development capacity. So US govt. denial is a huge hit in our already tiny chances to save the planet from hell in the next 50yrs.

Isn't "creativity" the result of a combination of patterns (usually from different contexts) that casually works? I bet LLMs/agents can do that (we can't know how far that can goes).

I had a similar experience. My son had pneumonia and was still filling pain after 10 days of antibiotics. Took an X-Ray to three different doctors, and only one got the right diagnosis (pleural effusion). It's really something we should have a central place with top notch professionals looking at it, instead having each doctor to find by themselves.

Yes, it went commercial. But Conda is still free. And the community had built conda-forge to maintain packages. Conda + conda-forge can completly replace Anaconda for most people.

So even though they went commercial, they left pretty good things behind for the Open source community.

I use Miniforge in a commercial environment and never found a package downloading from the main channel. I'm pretty sure a recipe that does that would be blocked by conda-forge reviewers.

How much of these 9% uses Apple Pay? My bet it's just a small part. People still use Pix and physical Credit/Debit Cards. Google Pay/Apple Pay are far behind.

> many scenarios where the only option was to pay with PIX

I guess you want to say "only option _beyond cash_ was Pix". Most places should accept Passport ID to replace CPF. But if you found hard to pay using credit cards, that has nothing to do with Pix...
