It's difficult to tie changes in customer retention to not having a doorman in a "hard data" way. Ideally you'd want to do an A/B test of doorman vs non-doorman, but you'd need multiple hotels for that to work.
This seems like a logical error. I don't understand how an internal combustion engine works, but I know it doesn't come from goblins jumping up and down inside.
This link https://wismuth.com/chess/longest-game.html from the article talks about the 2014 changes (75-move rule and draw by 5-fold repetition) that make it no longer infinite.
Looking at the actual article, the people suggesting taxes on AI are American Nobel laureate Edmund Phelps, and Bill Gates, founder of MSFT. The Europeans suggest more general taxes on capital instead.
The OP thinks that candidates spending a lot of time on applications is OK, as long as the company shows respect by spending a lot of time themselves. I think this is mistaken - I care about how much time I have to spend, and am a lot less concerned about how much time the company takes.
There's a trade-off: if a company spends more time / requires more effort on an interview process, they can get a better signal on the candidate's abilities, but then they'll lose out on candidates who are unwilling / unable to commit this time. This might just be a hard trade-off in recruiting.
This is an interesting use of AI. If we just want to know what Charles III looks like, photography has solved that problem. So a portrait is interesting because it's saying something about him, rather than being a photo-faithful likeness. But what is the robot (or rather, the robot's programmer) trying to say here? Any ideas?
Trivially, the measure of how much it costs in dollars to drive into Manhattan along the affected routes has gone up. So there are likely some people who are worse off. It's rare to have a completely free lunch, but this one looks pretty cheap.
Number of people saying that you should just make sure you have backups. That's true, but there's still a role for government to play to prevent this sort of thing. We don't let companies sell poisonous food - why do we let them offer digital services that can be arbitrarily frozen?
There are a number of industries where you may need experience to become more productive than AI, but nobody wants to hire you when AI is more productive in the first couple of years. Is there a good equilibrium for this, or does it end up with each company saying "We won't hire the juniors, just the experienced people" and then finding there aren't enough experienced people around?
Peter already replied to this elsewhere in the thread. To a question
"Maybe a dumb question, but... I'm a Canadian who would qualify for a TN visa if I worked in the States, but don't currently have a visa or green card. On the online submission form for job openings, it always asks 'Are you legally entitled to work in the US?'. Am I meant to answer yes or no to that?"
Peter replies:
"Unfortunately, the correct answer is No because until you have the TN, you are not legally entitled to work in the U.S. Of course, this means that you will be excluded automatically for consideration of certain jobs."
From 0511 local, originally posted on X: "Due to a computer networking problem BART service is suspended system wide until further notice. Seek alternate means of transportation. Find more info at http://bart.gov/alternatives"
Harper's (where the article was originally published) requires you to submit by snail-mail, but many places require email submissions. Guessing that computers won partly because they are a lot more convenient for publishers - if you're typing something up then the publisher has to type it again on their end.
I think you are misunderstanding the purpose of a headline. "Purple exists only in our brains" is a reasonable summary. Your last paragraph is not a headline.
Doctors Without Borders has a page showing examples of this https://donate.doctorswithoutborders.org/c3-give-now - various vaccines and treatments available for under $1 / person and making their life easier. So donating to DWB seems like a pretty easy approach.
Lots of people saying that this is completely obvious. I'm not so sure, but the article summary is not much help there - we are almost at the end when the researcher explains what she claims the advance is. A better article would start by explaining the advance, diving deeper into it, and then following up with how she showed this. Something to think about when we're trying to communicate complex ideas.
