If you ask this of any current day AI it will answer exactly how you would expect. Telling you to drive, and acknowledging the comedic nature of the question.


That's because AI labs keep stamping out the widely known failures. I assume without actually retraining the main model, but with some small classifier that detects the known meme questions and injects correct answer in the context.

But try asking your favorite LLM what happens if you're holding a pen with two hands (one at each end) and let go of one end.



Are you also an LLM? Do objects often begin rotating when you're only holding them with one hand?


Not unlikely that you're talking to a lot of AI-based AI boosters. It's easier to create astroturfed comments with chatbots than fixing the inherent problems.


I always like to ask AI to generate a middle aged blond man with gray hair. Turns out that all models with gray have black roots.

Even Midjourney couldn't do it.


Nice. My test was always a blond bald guy. It always adds hair. If you ask for bald you get a dark haired bald guy, if you add blond, you can't get bald because I guess saying the hair color implies hair (on the head), while you may just want blonde eyebrows and/or blond stubble.


Cast-iron, or enamel-coated cast-iron.


I remember reading that autoimmune diseases are more common in people descended from regions that survived the bubonic plague, and that it’s believed this is because the survivors of the plague had mutations which meant they had a more active immune system.

Interesting!


A single apartment complex could almost certainly not cover enough space with solar panels in order to charge a battery to accommodate this.


That's the neat thing, it doesn't have to. Every kWh that goes into these batteries is a kWh not purchased from the grid. The payback for the solar panels would very quickly add up.

In fact, trying to 100% charge the batteries via solar would not be the most economical way to operate as then you are just wasting money sending power back to the grid.


New Orleans is undeniably worse. Sea level in much of the Gulf Coast rose 8 inches from 2006 to 2018: https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-environment/2023/04/1...


“Effectiveness” was a measurement of reduction in severe infection, not reduction of transmissibility. Nobody ever claimed there was a 90% reduction in transmission.


The Treasury (under the executive branch) could possibly regulate crypto as a currency, but most likely this would require new legislation from congress to give the Treasury the power to do so.

I have less gray hair today than 5 years ago - I think that’s pretty easy for aging men to achieve. ;)


I'm a woman and not going bald if that's the joke you are making.


Gitolite is open source and really easy to self host if you only need VCS.


Montague makes various full sized folding bikes. I’m quite pleased with the Navigator, but they even make a folding mountain bike, the Paratrooper.

When unfolded, you can’t tell at all that they’re folding bikes.
