One can spend US$100 on some fancy Nike running shorts, but they're still just one step away from boxer underwear. And that shirt with the name of the last race you ran? Yeah, fancy t-shirt, i. e., underwear.
IOW, I was being facetious. And a little self-denigrating, to make sure I don't take myself too seriously as an athlete.
I think about this very often. It's also so strange that these proto-AIs feel so organic and flawed in their operation. I've always thought that computers would be perfect, but limited in their increasing capabilities, it's so weird to see them have such flaws as "hallucinations" or "confabulations".
Computers only perfectly* execute their instructions but how those instructions are provided can have errors. Whether we are talking about a garden variety coding bug, or the fact that LLMs are learning their capabilities from the output of (very flawed) humans.
*in theory - not addressing things like bit flips, etc.
I'm on Windows 11 Home and Windows 11 Pro for $39 on stacksocial is tempting. Other than Bitlocker and the ability to create local accounts, does Pro have anything particularly noteworthy that would justify the purchase?

None of this is particularly enticing to me personally, I think I'll be scratching my virtualization itch with linux on my home media server. Sandbox might be interesting for security.

Oh, that's perfect then! I'm going to be doing a clean reinstall soon. The PC is starting to seem a little sluggish since I just went the Windows 10 upgrade route for Windows 11.
I have "Cite sources whenever possible, and include URLs if possible (at the end of the answer, not inline)" in my custom instructions and nearly always get citations from chatGPT.
Which version are you running, and are you running it through llama.cpp or something? I was just thinking about exactly something like Samantha on the ride home today, and of course it already exists!
I share your awe. I feel like a kid in a candy store with all these incredible AI breakthroughs coming out these days! There's a place for cynicism and pessimism, but the kid in me who loves technology for its own sake is just absolutely on cloud 9.
