I dunno man, I think outside influence helped massively.

To the point that I wonder if Pence actually saved us all when not doing what he was supposed to - but the people Trump put in place meant he didn't get blocked for running again.

When you realise that the Trump administration is not working FOR the country but against the countries interest, then it starts to make sense.

To put von der leyen in the same sentence as the other two says a lot more about you than anything else.

For one thing, she is much more likely to be 'ruling' in 10+ years being both female and only 68, and people are only sent to old peoples home when they can't look after themselves. Trump definitely meets that mark, Putin we obviously do not know. Pension for von der Leyen, maybe, but with age comes wisdom with her role, and stability.

Google need to allow saving history and exclude it as training data. I will not use it seriously until this is resolved.

Just like the tech company owners not allowing their kids access to social media…

I paid for perplexity pro for 3 years. I genuinely enjoyed using it and felt it was better overall than ChatGPT etc due to the way it showed sources etc. I liked being able to use different models depending on what I was looking for, and the deep research was helpful.

I think they probably damaged themselves by going for a land grab of user base through freebies. It meant the users weren’t ever going to convert to paid customers, so it was more to show investors that they had a user base. But, with an increased base of users who weren’t paying, it then meant they needed to find either new revenue streams or cheaper ways to provide the service. Unfortunately, it seems they went with the new revenue streams whilst also decreasing the functions paying members were able to access (something I find quite abhorrent- I paid a service level, but then they change what I receive mid-subscription). And then computer - rammed down my throat. One reason I pay for pro is to stop the nagging noise of paid tiers. And instead, they actually created a way of logging in and continually seeing gated functions.

So, after paying them upwards of $400-$500 and being a loyal customer, I walked.

Yes. Did one - saw that I wouldn’t get feedback until I have completed all 10 (if at all) and noped out.

Musk and Russia too.

How many bomb alerts in only Democrat strong areas, for example?

The amount of times ‘delve’ appeared in general conversation in the last couple of years shows the influence LLMs have on society.

Yes, I’m audhd and dyslexic.

I am cancelling my Claude max 5x subscription and moving to ChatGPT pro. I have difficulty enough trying to ensure my meaning comes through correctly, along with everything else; to now have to look out for/analyse watermarks too?

I feel shamed enough by society, thanks Anthropic.

Musk ACTIVELY attacks through social media the governments in power and actively supports far right parties (through both appearances and money).

That’s a hell of a difference to ‘you’ll be at the back of the queue’ - which was a stated fact.

Was it to convince though? He stated a fact.

And no, the real difference now is that the USA oligarchs are activity trying to get far right parties in power.
