nah, it's pedantic

thanks awesome. thank you for making this.

Can you go into any detail on what technologies you used? Is there enough differentiating data in their attire to actually match agents? None of them are showing their faces so I wonder how many false positives would occur

GPT has been a godsend. For basically being a very competent super knowledgeable tutor of every single language.

So if I have some weird question about some language mechanism I can ask it in the domain that I know which is English or a romance language and it will do some compare and contrast. I can ask it about the etymology of the word and the development of certain verbs which helps me to really remember things.

The way that it knows what you mean because it has such a vast knowledge base but also the fact that it is an expert in both source and target languages, and how nowadays with voice chat it speaks it with a correct accent means there's really nothing else like it to be honest

Like, is there potentially a human being who can surpass the abilities of GPT in this domain? Absolutely but that particular professor or tutor needs to not only be native proficient in both languages, speak both without accidents, but also be patient and understand what you're trying to ask without any judgment. And now try to do that for one to N language pairs and basically the talent pool shrinks to zero. Oh and you want it on demand to scratch a curious itch while driving down the road. No human can offer this service.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say no

I've definitely run into this personally. But even even I explicitly tell it to not skip implementation and to generate fully functional code, it says that it understands but continues right into omitting things again.

It was honestly shocking because we're so used to it understanding our commands that a blatant disregard like that made me seriously wonder what kind of laziness layer they added

"neat"

Nice

No, sometimes it accidentally turns off and I have to turn it on again.

I like having it on just like I like having Internet search history to look back and find something.

My memory kinda sucks and I travel a lot so sometimes I use it to place myself where I was 2 months ago. Whether it's to find a restaurant I walked by but forgot to save in maps, or to try to remember where I lost something yesterday etc etc

I also found out my last month of Google photos had location disabled from my phone. Again by accident. It really sucks because I liked being able to search via location to find photos. Or sometimes find a photo and share a venue or restaurant to friends.

I remember heated discussions here on hn of people noticing rising grocery bills. There were people who always bought the same thing and noticing their costs jumping 20%. And throngs of people came in gaslighting them and using all sorts of wrinkly brain arguments.

Like these poor people somehow shouldn't be believing their own eyes.

For a site that is all about the cutting edge and discussing trends that period right before the inflation surge made me realize just because people throw around fancy jargon and charts doesn't mean anything

Ooo good to know. I'll check that out.
