Yep. Originally developed for high blood pressure and angina, but in clinical trials was found to be more effective in treating ED than heart issues.

You’re right. I shouldn’t’ve jumped the gun like that.

That’s true, and i’m not saying it isn’t.

EDIT: in hindsight, i shouldn’t’ve dismissed this as just “oh it hasn’t got good range” . I will try not to be so dismissive in future.

This should be good for an average commute in an urban area.

Side note tho, remember when the high end cars had below 100 mile range?

Yeah, Reddit is pretty bad when it comes to trying to have well reasoned discussions with people.

> It was a marketing campaign. > it was never a serious thing

Yeppppp. This is what i was saying for weeks and weeks, if not months. The amount of people on Reddit who can not see the puzzle pieces of “OpenAI sells AI” , “AI is hyped” , “more hype = more attention = more money and media coverage” and put them together, is actually shocking. Every time i would point this out on Reddit, more often than not i would get downvoted, and the responses were basically “well actually, AGI is around the corner”

This community is honestly SO MUCH BETTER than a lot of futurist subs. I might just stick to this site for a while.

And let’s not forget that Sam Altman is the CEO of OpenAI. He clearly has a vested interest in creating hype around AI, AGI, etc. But when i point this out on Reddit, for some reason i get downvoted.

> You can plot this exponential growth out over time and calculate when these models will have the complexity of the brain. Then you can assume some penalty for shitty architecture (that gets better over time), and you’ll have a ballpark estimate.

The same thing could’ve been said for self driving cars, or the space program, or a lot of things that seemed to be progressing quickly at the time.
