Read this 🧵. Three things that rang true for me: 1) Insist and be intentional about finding time with your friends. 👯‍♀️ 2) Learning to learn is critical for navigating the world and building a sense of accomplishment. 🚀 3) Create milestones in your life. Go to Japan ⛩️

ANDOR is great because it knows the coolest shit in STAR WARS isn’t the force or lightsabers… it’s switches, plugs, and knobs.

Referencing Annie Lowery, @ezraklein on why people are mad as hell about the US economy: "The things that are the building blocks of having a decent life have become impossible to afford." (Healthcare, childcare, housing, etc) #JFFHorizons

Students at Emory University built an AI study tool. They pitched it to the university at an entrepreneurship competition. They won "grand prize" and $10,000 to build the tool. They built the tool. The school's Honor Council suspends them for cheating 404media.co/university-suspe…

NEW: A measure that would have required each school bus in Louisiana to have air conditioning and heating has FAILED to pass the Louisiana Legislature. With a 43 to 57 vote, Senate Bill 26 failed to pass the La. House of Representatives, effectively killing the bill in Louisiana’s regular legislative session. @KALBtv5 #lalege #Lagov LEARN MORE: kalb.com/2024/05/21/bill-req…

Is it just me or was it kind of unsettling to watch the demo folks blatantly interrupt the AI?

Again, a lot of people don’t realize a vast number of people in the world economy are paid 150k+ a year to do in a few days what the machine just did in 25 seconds.
Full analysis from a single command. Nice.

It’s like AI Amelie.
This is wild. OpenAI just dropped ChatGPT-4o and it will completely change the AI assistant game. 10 wild examples: 1. Visual assistant in real-time

This feels true. I remember being amazed by finding so many niche businesses- one that I loved was a whole shop of vintage toys. Another shop was full of custom belts. You may see one or two of these in bigger cities in the states, but not at the scale you see them in Japan.
Basically, Japan is Japan because it has a million small retail businesses. They're the ones who create the constituency for transit, walkability, etc. American urbanists are usually captured by leftism, and thus ignore the crucial role of small businesses in creating community.

Are medical studies being written with ChatGPT? Well, we all know ChatGPT overuses the word "delve". Look below at how often the word 'delve' is used in papers on PubMed (2023 was the first full year of ChatGPT).
