AGI is right around the corner everyone (credit: yuechenzhao on LinkedIn)

ChatGPT o1-preview Q: I have a bucket that can hold 7L of water. However, it's missing the bottom and the top is welded and sealed shut. How much water can this bucket hold? <Thought for 8 seconds> A: Since the bucket is missing the bottom and the top is sealed shut, it has no enclosed space to hold water. Any water poured into it would simply flow out through the open bottom. Therefore, the bucket cannot hold any water in its current condition.

A screenshot of an iTerm2 window with multiple tabs open in tmux integration mode, on a host named "octavia". The tab that's in the foreground is displaying the status of various system services: systemd services, snap services, podman containers, and docker containers, showing whether they are up (they all are) and how long they've been up for.

it's like tabitis but for apps (yes I'm well aware of RAM, swap, and virtual memory constraints; don't worry, my machine is a goddamn horse)
