There is no AI.
AI has been a dream since the term was coined in 1957, and it remains a dream.

Large Language Models are statistical models that turn words into words in an only partially predictable fashion.

There is no intelligence.

Why on earth would anyone use this for serious work?

You are asking scholars to be polite while you blithely insert theft-based inaccuracy machines into products so that human learning is corrupted and their ability to discern how knowledge is created is destroyed.

So I feel like perhaps your scaling of importance on this is off.

What recommendation means, in the US healthcare system: insurance companies usually cover vaccines only if the government recommends them.

So parents will now pay hundreds to vaccinate their kids or not be able to afford it. People will die because of this

I’m so fucking mad

It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.
