Re: Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now
I look forward to Microsoft's investment into AI but it is hard to disagree with what Gary Marcus on Twitter said: 13.5 months post GPT-4: • Models that are not as good as GPT-4 have become widespread. • Models that are roughly as good GPT-4 have become common. • Models that are significantly better...

Re: Help: does anyone know if website Sanford Custom knives is a scam?
Want to buy a knife sold in Sanford Custom Knives but wanted to check if anyone here has ever bought from them, please help I've owned quite a few knives but never any from Sanford Custom Knives.

Re: Funny or weird things caught on camera
Karen Gets Instant Karma After Stealing Package I highly doubt that this video shows any real karma. She's rolling around and screaming, hoping she can wrongly sue the man. https://youtube.com/shorts/_ctIMk5sGlY?si=1bv126yayMCXrvkv Jim That's weird. DO people watch neighboring homes and watch to se...

Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
TOTALLY DISARM AND NO LONGER CARRY That was the thought that I had. Very serious. Yes, me first. I must be depressed, over-tired I thought. I cannot be serious, can I? Would you ever unilaterally DISARM and never carry a weapon of any kind in public? Are you ready to deal with whatever comes your w...

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but if MITRE, Microsoft and the CIA can be hacked there really isn't such a thing as a secure system. https://www.zdnet.com/article/everything-you-need-to-know-about-microsoft-exchange-server-hack/ https://www.techtarget.com/whatis/feature/SolarWinds-hack-explaine...

I stayed out of the political end of it.
The hacking IS REAL and that is all that I'm talking about. Be aware people or your credit card data and identity will be gone.

Re: Protecting Our Allies
As a Filipino, I appreciate that other people are aware of tensions in Southeast Asia. I can't say more without turning this into a political post, so I will close with that. I knew about the Philippines before 2000, but I did not know much about Filipino people and their American history. I learne...

Re: Martial Arts Experiences Discussion Thread
Another Good Reason to Avoid Showboating for the Crowd (*my title*) I've seen too many c0cky fighters who act like this in the ring, who may have gotten away with it for some time, eventually get caught and destroyed. Anyone can get caught. But it makes you look stupid if you get caught while arrog...

Re: Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now
Anyone ever think that in the Book of Revelation the AntiChrist and False prophet make the image of the beast which is an A.I.? "And it was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would even speak and cause all who do not worship the image of the b...

Re: The First Pig-Human Kidney Transplant
They have successfully grown human organs in pigs, and even ears. I hope this turns out to be a good thing for everyone concerned. It could save a lot of lives. Now, if the government would get control of the insurance companies and the way charges are done, perhaps it wouldn't cost so much. I was ...

Re: The Days of the Milkman May Be Numbered!
Milk in paper cartons is better. However, I buy Fernleaf powdered milk. It tastes just like bottled milk and dissolves in cold water. It is a New Zealand product. I understand that the same brand in the UK isn't nearly as good because UK laws mandate using only UK cow milk. The NZ cow milk is much ...

Re: The First Pig-Human Kidney Transplant
Wow, they only last so long... That is not a fun thought. One of my younger brothers needed open heart surgery, he was born with a hole in his heart the size of a nickel. Very stressful time, but they put a patch over the hole and said it was good for life. I would have a hard time thinking about n...
