Intelligent people leave a space of about two cars ahead of them on the freeway.

Stupid people think that space must be for them.

We do have lots of places like Sheetz that serve a similar function, but to be entirely automated is rare.

Automats might be a closer analog.

Vending machines work better when there’s more foot traffic and more density.

Vending machines with specialty goods (as pictured) need to be restocked every day and they require even more foot traffic. I think this is the biggest factor why OP’s vending machine is not viable in a lot of places in the US.

This is just improving LLMs, but with more steps.

The writer has a clear bias and a lack of a technical background (writing for Techies.com doesn’t count) .

You don’t have to look hard to find devs saving time and learning something with AI coding assistants. There are plenty of them in this thread. This is just an opinion piece by someone who read a single study.

Lol you cared enough to respond. Sorry you’re too stupid to hold a conversation.

Never said the study was bullshit. I just said to look at the bigger picture.

I would show you how Google works and provide an article, but your reading comprehension leads me to believe you’d come up with another straw man fallacy to support your confirmation bias.

“The only way to interpret statistics is with a healthy dose of skepticism and a thorough understanding of their context.”

While people in this thread jump at the opportunity for this slice of statistics to affirm their confirmation biases, intelligent people will ask what the total carbon dioxide output looks like by comparison.

Bernie should have been president.

You know very little about the stock market. You should read up on the OTC markets.

They’re not intelligent enough to realize their arguments are outdated.

By your definition stocks are also a pyramid scheme and everyone knows it. The more people that buy it, the price goes up! Sell? The price crashes! What a revelation!

Someone should start going by the name, “I owe you 5 dollars”. It’s a fool-proof way to get rich quick.

Don’t buy Bitcoin. It’s going to crash!

The billionaire owner class continues to treat everyone like shit. They blame AI and the idiots eat it up.

[Publicly traded company] unhappy with how much money [division] burns. Suggests putting the money into stock buybacks.

Wow, this is some hard- hitting journalism that couldn’t possibly write itself!

AI is so dumb. I’ve tried it and I can’t get it to do anything. There are no useful applications and it’s very bad!1!

Wait till they learn about the environmental impacts of the oil industry, or the plastic industry.

Le Pen is Kremlin asset. Fuck her.

During the course of the entire war, the US has spent $175 billion helping Ukraine. This might sound like a lot until you realize that in just a single year, the US’ federal budget is $6.5 trillion. So even if we paid for everything all at once, there’s still $6.32 trillion left this year.

Not to mention most of the money goes back into the American economy. We are spending money on weapons that are largely sitting in warehouses that we would otherwise need to be replaced. Weapons don’t last forever. So for pennies on the dollar we are saving Ukrainian cities from being “liberated” by our cold war enemy that never stopped being our cold war enemy. Sounds like a great investment to me.
