As someone who works in AI and who is critical of OpenAI, it is extremely frustrating to see people criticise all of AI because they have fallen, line and sinker, for OpenAI's hyperbole that OpenAI effectively *is* all of AI

“You’re on disability? You’re so lucky! I wish I didn’t have to work.” Do people not understand how sick you need to be to GET disability? It’s not a vacation. It’s not fun. It’s heartbreaking to lose your health & independence. To have society treat you as disposable. 1/2

Oxford's buildings are beautiful, but even more so are its hidden corners of green

The image shows a narrow dirt path winding through a lush, green forest or wooded area. The path is surrounded by tall grass, shrubs, and various types of trees with dense foliage. In the foreground, a dog with reddish-brown fur is walking along the path, attached to a bright orange leash. The dog appears to be leading the way down the trail, with its back to the camera. The scene suggests a peaceful nature walk or hike with a canine companion.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Covid is evolving to become mild because the Evolution Fairy knows that we've all been good boys and girls

I think this is why so many GPs just refuse to acknowledge the problem—because they simply cannot bear the acknowledgement
