muse is a pretty capable agent but still asks for too many approvals to do tasks. I'm a student and have been going between muse and instinct

What about yahoo and hotmail then?

The article itself already provides them with the TV… you can use cell phones too if you’d like. A palm pilot vs a Xiaomi. Virtually any electronics junk that you’d find on Amazon is cheaper now. What’s the common factor…? China. Again, in the paper.

They must have pushed down the inference cost quite a bit to launch this

I included a link that explains this. Anyone who thinks things becoming cheaper without mentioning china is delusional.

One example is the Samsung frame vs Hisense canvas. $1500 vs $1000 msrp. You can see similar price differences across all Samsung vs tcl and Hisense.

cocoa is the main input for that and is subject to weather and crop failure, which - surprise - is why its' more expensive. however if you're talking about chocolate candies (not raw cocoa) it is indeed less expensive now adjusted for inflation. the problem is the quality of chocolate candies has reduced, so the equivalent chocolate bar is probably more expensive even though the similar one is cheaper.

ironically cocoa is a great example of my point though - it's not imported from china, so there isn't a huge cost reduction.

huh? it is all cheaper relatively. which exported good from china is more expensive now than the 90s adjusted for inflation?

it's literally what the graphs in the article say... increased efficiency and what I am saying are not in contention.

> South Korean TVs are cheap, too

more expensive than chinese

as for salaries - yes indeed they are up. not every chinese laborer is a slave obviously, but many are - not usually for electronics directly though, more often for the inputs of such (energy and what not).

i'm surprised there's contention about this - it's all over the news.

the amount of people willing to delegate to chatgpt tells me in the near future only rich people will be able to speak with a real doctor. the current top comment about someone's uncle being saved due to chatgpt guidance says it all.

> The proper decorum here is if the doctor made the wrong diagnosis. All fees and causal charges made by the doctor must be fully refunded and paid for. It’s only fair given the premium they were originally given to make a false diagnosis.

lol terrible idea. just as great as having so that the service you bought is entirely refunded if the code has a single bug.
