Again, I’m not so sure about that.

Take Macklemore releasing songs in support of Palestine like Hinds Hall.

This does not get shown in recommendations on sites like YouTube and is only really shown to audiences that support Palestine. Macklemore could have chosen to ignore this topic like most main stream artists, but he believed in what he wrote about and made the song regardless of how well it would do.

I don’t know about that.

Pop culture allows people with a voice/audience to have their say which influences the cultural zeitgeist.

Take Kendrick Lamar since I’m a huge fan and OP mentioned him specifically.

In 2018 he earned a Pulitzer Prize for Music, making history as the first non-classical or non-jazz artist to win. The Pulitzer board praised the album Damn for its “virtuosic song collection unified by its vernacular authenticity and rhythmic dynamism that offers affecting vignettes capturing the complexity of modern African American life”. Essentially, the album was recognised for its deep storytelling, social commentary, and innovative musical composition.

It’s incredibly reductive to label all pop culture as mindless drivel. When if you look, there are actually many artists who have a message to spread and are socially conscious.

I’m not sure people said those things.

Perhaps I should have been clearer.

I can’t see it taking off, anywhere really, but here particularly as our roads are very different to American roads so I don’t think they’ll have much success outside of maybe a few limited areas.

I also don’t think we will ever get to a point of self driving being very popular. As you would need to get humans to stop driving really as a mix wouldn’t be very safe.

Perhaps there but the UK I can’t see it.

Thanks for replying. I prefer when people actually articulate their disapproval to something than just downvote it, as it allows the other person to understand more.

Your comment is very reasonable and it makes me think that I perhaps give them too much credit when it’s a subject I’m not an expert in. We have embraced LLMs at work as software engineers for small company and it allows us to save so much time on the stuff we do over and over again. But that because we know the subject matter and it’s quite easier to see when they’re hallucinating. I should be more cautious when using them for stuff I’m not familiar with.

At work I work for a good company and we save so much time making enterprise software using LLMs as tools that we recently got a pay rise and reduction of hours in the same day.

😂.

That made me chuckle. Naughty LLM.

On a level though I don’t really get the disdain for them as search is a nightmare now and it’s a lot easier to just get the LLM to do it for you.

They call that anecdotal evidence, but if you actually look at the research then on the whole it is not ideal to do.

That said you do you it ain’t my cat.

edit:

I remove the output from ChatGPT due to people not being happy with that.

I’ve spend some time reading all the results from Google on this topic and the overwhelming consensus is that it is not good to spray your cat with water.

This is true even if you use an unbiased search term.

Exactly. I’m a software developer and I wouldn’t ask this question on Twitter. Although I might not remember how to convert files from one format to another off the top of my head. I would just use a search engine or ask my boss or even ChatGPT. It would take me a couple of minutes to learn what tool I need to do it.

Do you just assume everybody that gets take out, goes for fast food, or eats at a restaurant can’t cook?

Does it not seem more appropriate that they just want to have a lazy day and not cook. Your comments here reek of privilege and superiority.

Try and be better my guy. Looking at how you’ve been received here should cause you to have a little introspection in how you conduct yourself. I say this from a place of constructive criticism and not having a go at you. We all make mistakes online and we should learn from them to be better and make this community a better place for everybody.

Are you crying here because you didn’t read the post and you regret your comments or are you still having a pop at OP?

I hope it’s the former as the latter makes you seem like a shitty person. Positive intent makes me believe it’s the former.

I don’t think we will get to a place with self driving cars.

OP. How is it 53?

13 for the two pizzas. How much are the breadsticks and dessert?

Yeah I’m confused about this too.

They said they don’t use it and only use it to browse the menu.

Even taking away all these delivery services I hate having food delivered as you don’t know how long it’s sat in the car whilst they deliver other orders. The fries are soggy and it’s just not good.

I use those sites to browse the menu then i call the restaurant, which is cheaper, then go and collect it myself.

These services have also ruined fast food. McD although shit is convenient on the commute home It’s just filled with Uber eats and Just eat drivers and really makes it slow now to get food. Then they have these screens to order on so you can’t even get hold of a member of staff to ask for salt cause they’re too cheap to leave it out like they used to.

Fuck the CIA.

Thats 100%% more than I would rate it.

Thanks. This is amazing and just what I needed to understand the differences. Appreciate you taking the time.
