That actually has a simple answer, for most businesses it's not that you can't do what your suppliers do for you, it's that you'd rather use your resources (time and capital) towards something else because that's where they generate the most value.

For a simple example, I know how to make sandwiches but if I'm throwing a customer event I just want to buy them from a catering company. Then they have to deal with buying ingredients, hiring people, doing health code inspections, getting liability insurance, etc. Even if an AI could do all the management of it for me, I still wouldn't want to put in the capital resources towards it.

Not to mention, there are already (pre AI) machine-generated proofs that we've pretty much agreed not to try to explain fully, like the four-color theorem which ends up with brute-force verification of 600+ cases (down from close to 2,000 when first demonstrated)

That was essentially the point made by America in allied-occupied Germany, which completely suspended free speech. It does happen.

The $13b doesn't go to hugging face's bank acct to pay for anything like S3 egress fees... It go to hugging face's owners' Bank accounts for them to do anything else. New cohorts of billionaires and centi millionaires getting minted.

> The world would probably be a healthier place economically if every town and region could support a strong network of supermarkets, department stores and independent shops.

I don't know what you mean by that. I used to live in a tier 2 European city pre Internet and there were lots of things that were a pain to buy. We'd often have to check multiple stores. Specialty hobbies were served by one or two shops that you had to drive to. I remember having to take the train to a different city to buy a memory card for my computer. There was real consumer cost and societal cost.

The warehouse and online order model is economically a lot more efficient. The real question is what to do with the surplus it generates, make Bezos richer or something else?

The model doesn't particularly "know" which tokens within its output are "comments", it's not so easy

Curious why isn't it using an ADSB receiver?

No for China. Apparently Zhang Youxia was one with combat experience in Vietnam but got purged recently.

Kamangar, Wojcicki, Mohan were all CEOs of YouTube

Didn't at least some living generals fight in Vietnam?

Ok now do date math, does the day-of-month accurately jump over the non-existent numbers?

A lot is said in this thread about user preferences for info density, but it is really a lot more than preference. there's also a big component of it that is user productivity focused. Info-dense UIs simply require a lot less scrolling around and pagination to look at relevant data. For example the ability to look at multiple charts side by side instead of having to scroll one chart after another into position enables users to spot differences that they wouldn't otherwise see.

All models hallucinate. Everything in production with a model will too. It is not a "deal breaker"
