       @simon I played with ChatGPT for about 20 minutes, then got bored with it. It seemed like a neat toy, but without being able to trust it, I'm not sure how it can enable me to do more than I can do on my own today. Maybe it can save me some typing. However, the time saved in typing will be lost to verifying what it typed is actually correct and in my voice... so I might as well do it myself. They've automated the monkey's writing Shakespeare; it's hard to see it as more than that.

       @simon With reliability being an issue, I think it is best suited for those tasks where reliability isn’t too important. For example, treating it as an extra person in the room during a brain storming session, or potentially surfacing a basic level of understand on a topic when a person is so clueless they don’t even know what to Google. There are times when I need to do some searches to find enough info to do a useful search. Fast tracking that would be nice and an interesting use.

       @yogthos the distorted view of trains here in the US is strange. Take the Boring Company for example. They say they are going to build tunnels under cities that will have trams to carry people around to reduce or bypass traffic. Cities are clamoring to have them dig a hole for them. Meanwhile subways have existed for over 100 years and are in use around the world, including parts of the US.
