I don't disagree, I've spent my whole life firmly in the working class. I'm just saying that there are a lot of people focused on having more, regardless of where they're at.
Like, obviously many people are struggling. I know that. I've been there. I'm not talking about that.
I guess my point is best illustrated by Buddhism's second "Noble Truth": that suffering is caused by desire. This is a pretty decently established philosophy, and didn't spring into existence after the advent of Adam Smith - is what I'm saying.
I've avoided these AAA games for a long time, but I gotta admit, an Assassin's Creed game set in Japan does pique my interest. Can't wait to buy it once the DRM expires - assuming reviews are good.
The whole issue with LLM models right now is that they are notoriously difficult to control. If it were up to Google, every single response would include a reference to some sponsored content - but they can't do that without completely destroying the usefulness of the output and besmirching the sponsor's brand.
Of course, as time passes, we're going to refine this technology, until we have enough control to implement these terrible/profitable ideas. Like any aspect of life under capitalism, we can really only enjoy it while it lasts.
Never too late to improve - you've still got lots of time to enjoy the benefits!
Have you considered therapy as well? I don't come down hard one way or another on therapy vs medication, but imo talking to a therapist about these sorts of things can be very helpful - especially when dealing with the more "emotional" side of things. Even just knowing how to identify certain emotional patterns or feelings can make a world of difference.
(Obviously you don't have to answer that - feel free to consider my question rhetorical!)
I wonder how much of this idea that you can be "too old to learn" came from the advent of schooling and childhood education. Like, in a time before everyone went to school up until a certain age, did people still have this mindset?
I never used the old voice feature, so I guess I assumed based on how it looked and such. If it actually works the way I'm imagining though, that'll be insane. I don't think I'm prepared for that.
[[ EDIT: Disregard this whole message - I got ahead of myself and none of what I said is based on anything. ]]
The speed aspect is impressive, but I'm really disappointed about the "natural" conversation feature.
Like at first, I was super impressed with the presentation, but on the app, there's one crucial difference: you need to tap to interrupt.
Watching the presentation, I was thinking maybe there was a continuous input feed, and the AI was reacting to that in real time - so for example, if I said "Ahh, I see", the AI would hear that, but continue talking.
However, it seems like the input is still broken up into request/response the same as before, and this is actually just a new front-end (with some improvements in the response).
So overall, this is kinda neat, but sadly it's not at all what they seem to by hyping it up as, as far as natural conversation goes.
I could explain my point, but I can tell you're more interested in role-playing as a daycare worker, so I won't interrupt your fun.
