There's a difference between caring about the small things and caring about things that don't matter at all. Look at city skylines 2. Every tooth in every person is individually rendered. Why? Every house hold budget is tracked and managed. Even though you can't do much about it.

Lots of technically advanced simulations are going on in that game to build the most advanced simulation. But people don't play a game became its simulating a city accurately right down to individual teeth in every citizen. They play a game because it's fun.

> nearly as accurate as a human book keeper

Anything to avoid using the metric system.

Though seriously, what is this metric? Why would I care if an LLM is accurate as a human bookkeeper? Humans aren't exactly known for perfect recall.

20 year old students don't count as unemployed because they're not in the job market. Same reason you don't count retirees, children or the disabled.

> Iran war will also probably still be going on in 5 years

The Russia/Ukraine war has a goal, to make Ukraine either part of Russia or a client state.

What's the goal of the US/Iran war? So far it seems like the goal is to mostly return to the status quo prior to the war. I can't imagine that could continue 5 years because there's just not an objective. Of course, I could easily be mistaken.

> Nowadays pretty much everyone has a degree and then couldn't find a job

The unemployment rate in the US is 3.7%. 38% of adults in the US have a college degree. 38% is hardly everyone, and if nobody can find a job, then the unemployment rate should be far higher than 3.7%, which is basically full employment.

You're not being downvoted because you're wrong, but because the general rule of thumb is that replies should be _more interesting_ than what is being replied too.

No, Russia is tough on oligarchs that split from Putin. There is no non-corrupt oligarch.

Yes, but those are three or four knock off products. The brand name is always different.

> We all know that BigBrand gets it from the same supplier

We don't know that. Look at Project Farm's review videos, he tests a lot of knock off and brand name products and it's almost always a get what you pay for situation. Knockoffs look similar, but use cheaper materials almost always.

The question is almost always, do you need the quality that you get from name brand. Not "why can I get name brand quality of half price"

> tech company

> taking the safety/ethics implications very seriously

In the era of move fast and break things that includes things like enabling genocide, is an oxymoron.

Thats the story they tell investors because investors love a growing tech company. But scratch the surface a bit and you see retail shoveling most of it's profit into purchasing AWS.
