Re:Noam Chomsky: The False Promise of ChatGPT on Thursday March 09, 2023 @03:19PM (#35086101)
Chomsky can't fit the round intelligence of ChatGPT into the square hole of human intelligence, so instead he makes a case that it is an entirely disqualified from that category, rather than rethinking his own paradigm. He is, to put it bluntly, a fear-driven bigot defending his terrain as a public intellectual.

More or less saying "the UI has gone bad", but not in the functional sense. It's gone bad in the sense of UI principals and aesthetics, but not usability. Not a single complaint about usability.

Not just click-bait, it's trolling.

Be sure to log in and click on the "Offers" tab. If you've purchased a Sonos product in the past you may be able to get 15% off the Sub Mini (I did).

The 100 second video length is 2:39, far in excess of 100 seconds. Once I saw that I lost total confidence in the project.
