Doing a work training and I'm fascinated by this AI voice's accent. Was it intentional? Is it an artifact of the software? Is it an actual specific regional accent?

Luddites were not against technology or progress, they were against the threat of a machine taking your job away being used as a cudgel to suppress workers rights and wages.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

It’s why the word ‘hallucinations’ in relation to gen AI is misleading. When humans hallucinate, it’s because something’s misfiring in our brains. AI hallucinations are not a mistake. The system is doing exactly what it was intended to do. That’s why they can’t fix it, because it’s not broken. 13/

My cyrtanthus spiralis recently flowered for the first time. I've had it for ~5 years or so. I was pretty surprised when I noticed the flower stalk coming in. Expect more pictures of this one in the future.
