Yes, you have a moral obligation to Sam Altman’s trillion dollar business.

AWS, Azure, GCP, etc could already do this more effectively. Your bank even more effectively.

At least for LLM absolute worst case scenario you can run models yourself.

Yes, food poisoning from restaurants happens constantly. There are recalls on physical products constantly. Doctors misdiagnose constantly. What point are you trying to make?

Ah yes my mistake to respond to the spirit and reasonable implications of your comment rather than just the literal words contained in it.

Yes certainly if you discount the 20 years of development, the creator tools, the advertiser tools, monetizing creators, live streaming, completely rewriting the whole thing, etc. Google didn't develop YouTube much.

Same with YouTube

Well OP is asking about a specific paper and you are asking for it to be disproven, different requests and the LLM is just doing what you want.

Classic "you're holding it wrong" (maybe enhanced by exercise/nutrition science being what it is with a study and expert representing every side of an argument)

I'd personally probably do it like

> Someone told me about a recent paper which showed that sleep deprivation had surprisingly little impact on muscle hypertrophy, and that mechanical stimulus seemed to be the dominant factor.

> Can you comprehensively fact-check this, and let me know what the general scientific consensus on the topic is?

Even then you can't be certain of course. Even reading the cited studies you can't be certain unless you know enough to interpret them. But you'll probably be a bit more informed than you would be if you were just going off news article titles you see on social media like the average person.

The style / design in general looks AI. Generate enough sites, reports, etc and you'll recognize it without even being able to articulate why it's AI.

But imo it's not a bad thing. Most sites looked like shit in the past. The content is usually where I focus my changes when dealing with LLM generated HTML. And if I want it slightly less LLM flavored in terms of design I just pick a random design system to tell it to use. Apple HIG, IBM Carbon, etc.

Usually just picking your own palette, a design system, and making it remove all the stupid details it decides to add will improve your end result by a lot.

I could be wrong as I’ve never used it, but was under the impression instacart had people do the shopping part, not just pick up an order.

Still very similar

I liked the Touch Bar for custom app actions, but I didn’t like that it replaced the physical keys. Not that I use any of them much besides volume.

Reddit is undoubtedly “social media” and never had anything to do with connecting to your friends.

It’s basically synonymous with user-generated content site. It’s why TikTok is social media and Netflix isn’t, and PineDrama is somewhere in the middle because even though it’s studio content there’s still emphasis on the comments and whatnot.

Track changes in office is used heavily. Version history in Google Docs also

And that’s not even close to the short form 90 second micro dramas that are already super popular in China and are ramping up elsewhere. And this category is now dominated by AI

There’s no end to games with near or actually 0 story/narrative.
