  • People who are used to doing actual research and who understand the necessity of things like a peer review process understand how dangerous it is to have something that’s straight up confidently wrong 20% of the time, and yet have people who treat it like the ultimate authority on things. These people have likely seen AI be stunningly stupid in fields they know about and can extrapolate from there that it’s probably stunningly stupid about most things.


  • I have an issue with my laptop on my school’s network, which is likely an issue with the way the network is configured, because I’ve never had the issue on other computers or networks elsewhere, but sometimes my laptop(Linux Mint ThinkPad T490) will stay connected to the network, but say ‘authentication required’ and have no internet access until I reconnect. It also sometimes pops up a password box and asks me to reauthenticate to the network which I do, still using the same saved password. This gets annoying while writing tests that use browser window monitoring software. Like I said, it’s probably an issue with the network but none of the windows or Mac users seem to have this issue so maybe someone has come across something similar or knows how to fix it.
