re: How much do you use chat gpt?

I use it occasionally for work, but I also review the provided references to make sure the information is accurate. I still don’t trust it fully.
This is critical. As glowing my endorsement was above, it has never 100% delivered what I wanted. I still have to double check and polish. But it doesn’t change that it reduces the amount of personal time I need to apply to a deliverable by 90+%

As for time, not sure, as I just tell it to and come back later. Maybe 10 minutes for an hour long conversation?
I’m sure processing takes less than a minute and the bulk of time is the data transfer to AI

Yes
It’s not perfect but close enough, and with decent quality recordings it’s good enough to identify speakers automatically and attribute phrases correctly. (though the base format is just Speaker 1, speaker 2, etc)
It’s a two step process. I use an AI powered app to generate the transcript. Then I feed the transcript to my ChatGPT-4o to generate the summary.
-4o is amazing. You are only limited by what your platform allows you to integrate with. This technology will eventually replace so much of the workforce. Was watching a stunning video of what it was able to do when the parent told it that he wanted it to tutor his child, so do not tell give the answer, guide the child to figuring it out on his own.

Professionally, paying for unlimited access to ChatGPT 4o has been the biggest return of investment I have ever made.
Boss wants me to give meeting notes of our 1-1s, I just give AI the recording of the meeting and it takes care of it.
You definitely still need to be aware enough to proofread the work. It will make gaps. But if you know enough to catch it, and understand computers enough to know how they “think” in order to rephrase your request parameters it can easily spit out hours of work in minutes.
Probably the biggest gain is in making simple VBA scripts tailored to a task. It writes the code, I polish it a little and boom.
I wish it could read all my emails and write executive summaries on them and relay current project status

For something like this? I doubt it. Especially if root cause was having to do radical maneuvers due to missile attack.
You’d think the zero tolerance termination events are ship based, as opposed to within the ship. One crewman fricks up their task 100% accountability probably doesn’t go to the captain. You’d never keep a captain if you reassigned at every gap. Most tours have a least one death on the flight deck over a tour.
Ship runs into something tho, arse is grass

That bill did not do what the poster claimed. THC-9 gummies is still very much federally illegal, even if it came from hemp.
What the bill allows is the product must stay below natural levels of THC-9 from hemp. Which is very very very low. Most of the THC in hemp derived products are 9 and 10

There is no defense against the multiple stage rockets that go into orbit unless you shoot them down at launch which would be extremely difficult. We don’t really have an effective defense against most ballistic missiles if launched in groups. Less than a dozen or so, maybe? Even that is very debatable unfortunately
Why are you making stuff up? US has deployed and proven weapons to take out missiles in the ballistic phase (Navy’s SM-3 on Aegis equipped cruisers).
The issue is if you don’t neutralize a missile before the warheads deploy, you probably won’t be able to get them all.

The gummies that I get, which are federally legal, are Delta-9.
I would double check that.
THC is Schedule I
Applications in drugs Syndros and Marinol are reduced Schedule tiers.
Delta 8 is unscheduled.
Only federal attacks have been centered on claims being made about the product. The FDA doesn’t recognize any therapeutic benefit from it.

Absolutely fricking not.
Your bringing up insulin is damning in the extreme. I get it’s a loaded question, and variants like Humalog have a justified reason to be more expensive. But not base insulin. In fact, the inventor refused to charge royalties on such a lifesaving thing. So why should the companies after him get a pass?

I still don't see how the judiciary has this power over the executive branch.
It would seem that the executive branch could equally tell the judiciary to GTFO.
Sorry to hear you failed civics.
I’m not a fan of these injunctions either. And think they might be overstepping a bit.
But I do know that it was the executive that pushed harder at their constitutional boundaries. Not the judicial.
But here, this is an easy reference.

Perhaps. You’d be amazed how many historical trends began to separate between 70-80s though.
Care to explain why a chart between value of worker productivity and wages looks basically identical to this chart?
Pretty sure that’s not related to gold standard.
While computing and its advances play a major role: ultimately the fact is (and I’m a conservative), across the entire market, people aren’t being paid what they are worth.
It’s pretty conclusive.
Even if a tool like a computer is helping boost productivity, skill/expertise at using both it and the software a given company uses adds value that the objective data suggests is being taken for granted

re: Trump wants to eliminate income tax on those earning less than 200k a year. OT is fricked
Posted by Volvagia on 4/27/25 at 4:34 pm
Also, you won’t like how high that rate would have to be. As much as the talking point of the rich paying their fair share is used, they really do pay the overwhelming majority of taxes.

It makes absolutely zero difference if it is medically legal, recreationally legal or otherwise if your company doesn’t allow it and tests for it.
Issue is that companies have used the fact that the things they test are illicit to avoid accountability for specifically making those types of declarations.
No where in my company’s employee facing policies is it stated that THC is being tested for, or that a positive result can result in negative outcomes regardless of the legality of the source.

So according to this I can take THC gummies and drink that THC seltzer, just not before going to work. I mean it’s a legal substance in the state so it’s no different than alcohol. You can buy them both at a gas station.
The issue is though that test isn’t indicating that you took those this morning or even last night.
You having had a THC seltzer and a gummy last weekend would show the same result.

l, so explain it to me like I’m five, how this is being sold under current laws?
Because unlike what is said earlier in the thread, it’s not the same THC. Delta-9-THC, the primary psychoactive compound in weed, is heavily regulated.
Delta-8-THC, which is less potent and is also present in hemp, is currently unregulated in many jurisdictions unless laws were passed specifically to kill it.
