It's so ridiculous though! We have to get rid of comments because some random in the future might commit some rubbish? It's their fault! not mine! I'm just documenting what works at the time of publication

Microsoft will have to buy OpenAI in 2023 4 years ago
DALL-E 2 was a LOT better than Stable Diffusion. Sure it was open source but it was clearly a generation behind. Great if you didn't mind your inputs looking like last year's AI output.
Struggling to think of a child who has all three of: has a google assistant, has to cook themselves dinner; too young to know how to read.

Colleges are addicted to the new normal and will never go back. Applications surge by tens of thousands -> colleges make more of the $75 application fees. Acceptance rates go down -> your ranking in USNews goes up. Average ACT score increases (because why would you submit an under average score now) -> you can make your school look more prestigious than it actually is. Is any of this good for students? Standards can only continue to drop so low.
