I'm not sure if that helps, but you can switch to various fruits like kiwis, blueberries and blackberries instead of processed food. It can help you modulate your habit of eating while working.

It is not the vocoder but the guitar riff that sounds like robot rock.

The tone I'm referring to is the alternation between F#3 and F#4. I think your observation about the Shepard tone is valid. For the talking piano effect, I remember trying to play it on guitar to make it sound like "Robot Rock". I suspect this is in relation to Tethard's example of accentuation by spectral contrast, but that was a long shot to include.

Well, the audio area is full of masters and experts. I make no claim to be an expert, so you can ignore this writing as you prefer.

You are right. That part seems a little bit vague, I will update it.
"Manifacturing Consent" is a book written by Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky. They discuss the propaganda model of communication in much broader sense.

I hope there will be a mobile version too at some point.
I evaluated ChatGPT on Winogrande Debiased validation set[1], a dataset focused on commonsense reasoning. ChatGPT has an accuracy of 62.75%, below GPT-3's reported accuracy of 77.7%.

There are people who join to chess tournaments in small countries, just to obtain the GM or IM titles. Those titles are hard to obtain in bigger tournaments. Not the same thing, but they belong to the same cluster.
Having a consistent output to same input is something. I have done a couple of experiments starting with same sentence and each time it was a little bit nuanced. I would be interested if the answer is the same for a targeted question. Still, it would be better not to draw conclusions early.
Is it just me or did they just close the chat.openai.com endpoint?
One can condition the ChatGPT to act as someone and speak to a known another character. You can see my trial on https://www.ugu.rs/blog/chomsky-baudrillard-as-chatgpt/

You can do that to anyone, although the more unique the person is, the better the conversation. More or less, ChatGPT can be conditioned and change behaviour with respect to given set of instructions. Write "gossip about someone" and it will do that.

Thanks for the input, I was not sure about the 「大きい」either, it is better to remove it. However, for doushi, there is another noun「同志」. Is「同志」a suffix too?

Is there anyone who gets 'Your browser is out of date' type of notification on slack in Firefox, windows 10. I can open slack app on linux with Firefox, but for Windows, slack insists that Firefox is out of date and I should use another browser instead.

This story is as fake as the 'fake reporter'. Maybe we should also call the police for this
I wouldn't get suprised if some other behavioral patterns can be explained by the gut-brain relation.
